A reconciliation between GAAP operating results and non-GAAP operating results is provided following the financial statements that are part of this release and on the investor page of our website. Non-GAAP results exclude the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets and certain discrete tax items.
(1) | Non-GAAP results reported in Q1 reflect a tax benefit of $0.7 million related to certain first quarter foreign losses. This tax benefit was actually recorded for GAAP purposes in the second quarter of 2012 upon receipt of IRS approval of certain company tax elections. See also footnote (a) to the Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial results. |
(2) | Non-GAAP results for Q2 do not include the tax benefit of $0.7 million related to certain foreign losses incurred in Q1 (described in footnote 1 above) and the impact of certain Q2 discrete tax items. The company received the IRS approval described above in Q2, therefore GAAP results for Q2 include both Q1 and Q2 benefits associated with these certain foreign losses. See also footnote (a) to the Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP financial results. |
Commenting on the company's results, president and chief executive officer Dr. Timothy J. Stultz said, “We are pleased to report another strong quarter for Nanometrics, characterized by improved gross margin, improved profitability, key competitive wins and market-expanding product adoptions. We are currently seeing a decline in spending across our customer base, however our view is that this is a near-term pause, and that investments in both technology and capacity will begin to improve in early 2013. Today, we have more engagements across more products and platforms than at any time in our history - driven by key industry initiatives in 3D transistors, 3D memory devices and 3D packaging - as well as EUV lithography and the transition to 450mm wafers. In light of this, we are optimistic about the outlook for future growth and strengthening of our business."
Second Quarter 2012 Summary
Revenues for the second quarter of 2012 were $53.2 million, down 4% from $55.5 million in the first quarter and down 17% from $64.4 million in the second quarter of 2011. GAAP gross margin was 46.6%, compared to 45.2% in the prior quarter and 55.7% in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP gross margin, which excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets, was 47.8%, compared to 46.3% in the prior quarter and 56.1% in the year-ago period. The improvement compared to the first quarter of 2012 was primarily due to a higher mix of high-margin upgrade service revenues.

GAAP net income was $4.5 million or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to $1.7 million or $0.07 per diluted share in the prior quarter and $11.1 million or $0.47 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP net income was $3.1 million or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $2.9 million or $0.12 per diluted share in the prior quarter and $11.3 million or $0.48 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011.
At June 30, 2012, Nanometrics had $95.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and $161.9 million in working capital. Stockholders' equity, excluding intangible assets, was $193.8 million, or $8.36 per share based on 23.2 million shares outstanding at quarter end.
Business Outlook

Management expects GAAP gross margin in the range of 44% to 48%, non-GAAP gross margin in the range of 46% to 49%, and operating expenses to increase between $0.4 million and $0.7 million from the second quarter. Management expects third quarter GAAP net earnings in the range of ($0.09) to $0.00 per share and non-GAAP net earnings in the range of ($0.07) to $0.02 per share.
Conference Call Details
A conference call to discuss second quarter 2012 results will be held today at 4:30 p.m. EDT (1:30 p.m. PDT). To participate in the conference call, the dial-in numbers are (877) 374-4041 for domestic callers and (253) 237-1156 for international callers. A live and recorded webcast will be made available on the investor page of the Nanometrics website at www.nanometrics.com.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Financial results such as non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, net income and net income per share, which exclude certain expenses, charges and special items, were not prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Management uses non-GAAP financial results, which exclude acquisition-related expenses such as amortization of acquired intangibles and transaction costs, asset impairments, restructuring charges, legal settlements, certain discrete tax items and the impact of the timing of the approval of elections related to tax treatment of certain foreign subsidiaries, and other unusual and infrequent items to evaluate the company's ongoing performance and to enable comparison to other periods which did not include these unusual and infrequent items. The company believes the presentation of non-GAAP results is useful to investors for analyzing ongoing business trends, comparing performance to prior periods, and enhancing the investor's ability to view the company's results from management's perspective. A table presenting a reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP results is included at the end of this press release and is available on the investor page of the Nanometrics website at www.nanometrics.com.

(a) Reflects the tax benefit for certain first quarter foreign losses related to entity classification elections that were approved by the IRS in the second quarter. The tax benefit of these first quarter losses was recorded as a decrease to the second quarter tax provision on a GAAP basis. The discrete tax adjustment for the second quarter also excludes the one-time benefit associated with the recognition of Deferred Tax Assets related to the entity classification elections, resulting in a combined first and second quarter effective tax rate of approximately 36.5%.
