and Non-GAAP EPS of $0.05 in Fiscal 2011 Fourth Quarter
AURORA, IL, May 18, 2011 – Westell Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTL), a leading provider of broadband networking products, outside plant telecommunications equipment and conferencing services, today announced results for its fiscal fourth quarter and year ended March 31, 2011. Consolidated revenue
for the quarter was $49.6 million, up 31% from $37.8 million in the fiscal fourth quarter of the prior year. Net income during the quarter was $55.6 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the same quarter of the prior year.
Consolidated revenue for the 2011 fiscal year was $190.2 million, up 5% from $181.5 million in the prior year. Net income for the 2011 fiscal year was $67.9 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, compared to net income of $10.3 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, in the prior year.
Net income in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 includes a $53.2 million tax benefit resulting from the release of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Excluding the tax benefit and other one-time items, non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $3.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to $2.7 million or $0.04 per diluted share in the same quarter of the prior year. On the same basis, non-GAAP net income for the full 2011 fiscal year was $16.1 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to $10.9 million or $0.16 per diluted share in the prior year. Non-GAAP net income is reconciled to GAAP net income in the attached financial tables.
Total cash and short-term investments were $86.9 million at March 31, 2011, up $0.5 million during the quarter and up $25.6 million during the fiscal year. Reported cash balances do not reflect the proceeds from the CNS transaction which were received after the close of the fiscal year.
“This has been an outstanding year for Westell,” said Chairman and CEO Rick Gilbert. “We completed our eighth consecutive profitable quarter, generated significant cash, negotiated an attractive sale of most of our CNS operations, and made substantial progress on our investments in Ethernet products and HomecloudTM. We are eager to continue building on this solid platform.”
Fiscal Fourth Quarter Segment and Consolidated Results
The Customer Networking Solutions (CNS) segment reported revenue of $23.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, up 65% compared to $14.1 million in the same quarter of the prior year, reflecting market share gains and final sales of the low-margin UltraLine Series3 gateway product. CNS gross profit increased 25%, to $3.5 million, on a lower gross margin. Operating expenses dropped by $0.3 million, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, in spite of one-time expenses of $0.5 million that were incurred to defend and settle a patent infringement claim. As a result, the CNS operating loss was $0.7 million for the quarter, an improvement of $1.0 million compared to the same quarter in the prior year.
Revenue in the OSPlant Systems (OSP) segment was $15.2 million in the fourth quarter, up 14% compared to $13.3 million in the same quarter of the prior year, on strong demand for mountings and enclosure products. Gross profit was $6.3 million, an increase of $0.3 million compared to the prior-year quarter, and gross margin was 41.8%, compared to 45.2% in the prior-year quarter. The lower gross margin resulted primarily from a shift to a lower-margin mix of products for the quarter. The Company expects demand to return to a more typical product mix. Operating expenses increased $0.6 million, reflecting ongoing investment in new products. The net result for OSP was operating income of $3.2 million, down $0.3 million versus the prior-year quarter.
ConferencePlus (CP) revenue was $11.1 million in the fourth quarter, up 7% compared to $10.4 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Gross profit increased by $0.2 million and operating expenses were $0.3 million higher, resulting in operating income of $1.4 million, a decrease of $0.2 million versus the same quarter of the prior year.
On a consolidated basis, revenue for the fourth quarter was up $11.8 million, or 31%, compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Gross profit and operating expenses each increased $1.2 million, compared to the prior-year quarter, resulting in operating income that was unchanged at $2.7 million. Operating expenses for the quarter included $1.0 million of one-time costs related to defense and settlement of a patent infringement claim and to the sale of the CNS Division. Net income during the quarter was $55.6 million, compared to net income of $2.7 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Adjusting for the tax benefit and other one-time items, non-GAAP net income during the 2011 fourth quarter was $3.4 million.
Fiscal Year 2011 Segment and Consolidated Results
The CNS segment reported revenue of $89.1 million in fiscal year 2011, up 2% compared to $87.2 million in fiscal year 2010. Gross profit increased $1.5 million for the year, while operating expenses were reduced by $2.2 million, in spite of incremental one-time costs of $0.8 million during the year for defense and settlement of a patent infringement claim. The CNS operating loss was $0.3 million for the fiscal year – an improvement of $3.8 million compared to the prior year.
Revenue in the OSP segment was $58.8 million in fiscal year 2011, up 12% compared to $52.5 million in fiscal year 2010. Gross profit was $2.6 million higher, and operating expenses were $2.4 million higher. Operating profit therefore was up $0.2 million, to $13.4 million for the year.
ConferencePlus revenue was $42.3 million in fiscal year 2011, up 1% compared to $41.7 million in fiscal year 2010. Gross profit of $20.7 million was up $0.4 million between periods, and operating expenses were virtually unchanged, resulting in an operating income of $4.9 million for the year.
On a consolidated basis, annual revenue increased by $8.7 million, or 5%, compared to fiscal year 2010. Gross profit for the year increased $4.6 million, compared to fiscal year 2010, while operating expenses decreased by $0.4 million for the year. Operating income therefore increased by $5.0 million, to $14.7 million. Including the tax benefit from the release of valuation allowance, net income was $67.9 million, up $57.6 million compared to $10.3 million in the prior year. However, non-GAAP net income for the year was $16.1 million, up $5.2 million compared to $10.9 million in the prior year.
