IXYS Announces Results for the Third Fiscal Quarter Ended December 31, 2011
MILPITAS, Calif. & BIEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 31, 2012--IXYS Corporation (NASDAQ:IXYS), an international power semiconductor company, today announced results for its third fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011. Net revenues in the quarter ended December 31, 2011 were $80.0 million, a decrease of $11.7 million, or 12.7%, as compared to net revenues of $91.7 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, IXYS reported net revenues of $280.8 million, an increase of $14.3 million, or 5.4%, as compared to net revenues of $266.5 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
“Year-to-date revenues outperformed the prior comparable period as a result of shipments from our substantial backlog. In the most recently completed quarter, demand dropped, which is notable in light of our recent string of record-breaking revenue quarters. The holiday slowdown this past quarter also had a significant effect. Nevertheless, our design win efforts remain strong in our end customers. We continue executing along our multi-year, long-term growth plans, as evidenced by our nine month year-to-year results,” commented Dr. Nathan Zommer, Chairman and CEO of IXYS.
Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $5.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, as compared to a net income of $7.3 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Net income for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 was $26.6 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, as compared to a net income of $20.7 million, or $0.65 income per diluted share, for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
Gross profit was $23.2 million, or 28.9% of net revenues, for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, as compared to gross profit of $29.1 million, or 31.7% of net revenues, for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
Gross profit for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 was $89.7 million, or 31.9% of net revenues, as compared to a gross profit of $90.4 million, or 33.9% of net revenues, for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $93.2 million, an increase of $2.5 million as compared to $90.7 million at September 30, 2011, and an increase of $17.2 million as compared to March 31, 2011.
“Cognizant of market volatility, we maintain a conservative business outlook, focusing on sales and R&D, while working diligently to control expenses,” stated Uzi Sasson, President and CFO of IXYS. “We expect the March 2012 quarter revenues to be 5% to 8% higher than the December 2011 quarter revenues.”
