Entropic Communications reports second quarter results

Conference Call to be Webcast Today at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time

SAN DIEGO, Calif., August 1, 2012 — Entropic Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENTR), a world leader in semiconductor solutions for the connected home, today reported its second quarter results for the period ended June 30, 2012. Entropic reported second quarter net revenues of $83.1 million, an increase of 41 percent compared with $59.1 million in the first quarter of 2012. Second quarter revenue includes revenue contribution from the acquisition of the Trident Microsystems’ set-top box (STB) system-on-a-chip (SoC) assets as of April 12, 2012.

In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company’s second quarter net income was $0.2 million, or $0.00 per share (diluted). This compares with GAAP net income of $3.9 million, or $0.04 per share (diluted) in the first quarter of 2012.

Non-GAAP net income in the second quarter was $7.8 million, or $0.09 per share (diluted), compared to non-GAAP net income of $10.6 million, or $0.12 per share (diluted) in the first quarter of 2012.

“Entropic performed well in the second quarter, with revenue exceeding the high end of the revised guided range and better-than-expected underlying profitability,” said Patrick Henry, president and CEO, Entropic Communications. “Integration of our set-top box system-on-a-chip and connectivity businesses is proceeding well and allows us to expand our footprint in connected home entertainment. We made progress in key areas of our business by maintaining our lead in MoCA 2.0, announcing significant design wins at Comcast, and recently rounding out our direct broadcast satellite portfolio with the acquisition of assets from PLX Technology. Each of these advancements allow us to capitalize more strongly on global Pay-TV service provider plans to roll out advanced service offerings that drive consumer engagement and increased ARPU.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the accompanying tables contain the following non-GAAP financial measures: net income and net income per share. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effects on the Statement of Operations of all forms of stock-based compensation, transaction and due diligence costs related to the Trident Microsystems transaction, amortization of intangible assets, the loss related to equity method investment, and the cash tax difference.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to manage the Company’s business, including setting operating budgets and executive compensation plans. These non-GAAP measures are also used to (i) supplement the financial results and forecasts reported to the Company’s board of directors, (ii) evaluate the Company’s operating performance, (iii) compare the Company’s performance to internal forecasts, and (iv) manage the Company’s business and benchmarking performance internally. The non-GAAP measures have been made available to stockholders consistently in the past to provide transparency on how management manages the Company’s operating performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP operating measures are useful to investors, when used as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating the Company’s ongoing operational performance.

The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

(1) The Company's non-GAAP net income per share is calculated using the cash tax rate of 22%, 14% and 2% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2012, March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011, respectively. The Company's non-GAAP net income per share is calculated using the cash tax rate of 18% and 5% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The estimated cash tax rate is the estimated tax payable on the Company's projected tax returns as a percentage of estimated annual non-GAAP pre-tax net income. The Company uses an estimated cash tax rate to adjust for the historical variation in the effective book tax rate associated with the reversal of valuation allowances, the utilization of research and development tax credits, and the utilization of loss carryforwards which currently have an overall effect of reducing taxes payable. The Company believes that the cash tax rate provides a more transparent view of the Company's operating results. The Company's effective tax rate used for the purposes of calculating GAAP net income for the three month periods ended June 30, 2012, March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011 was approximately 31%, 43% and 36%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate used for the purposes of calculating GAAP net income for the six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was approximately 43% and 35%, respectively.
