FARO Reports Second Quarter 2013 Results

LAKE MARY, FL, July 30, 2013 – FARO Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: FARO) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 29, 2013. Sales in the second quarter of 2013 increased to $68.3 million, from $66.8 million in the second quarter of 2012. The Company reported net income of $3.6 million, or $0.21 per share, in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $4.7 million, or $0.28 per share, in the second quarter of 2012.

New order bookings for the second quarter of 2013 were $66.7 million, a decrease of 6.1% from $71.0 million in the second quarter of 2012.

Gross margin for the second quarter of 2013 was 54.0%, compared to 55.5% in the second quarter of 2012. Gross margins were slightly lower primarily due to lower average selling prices for certain metrology products.

The Company’s operating margin for the second quarter decreased to 8.0%, compared to 10.3% in the second quarter of 2012. Operating expenses increased due to staffing costs and related expenses of $1.8 million primarily in our sales and marketing and research and development organizations, offset by lower legal and professional fees of approximately $1.0 million.

“Our results in the second quarter were impacted by ongoing economic softness in Europe and Asia. While interest in FARO products remains strong, many customers have deferred purchase decisions in light of economic uncertainty,” stated Jay Freeland, FARO’s President and CEO. “The Americas region continues to show signs of strength, generating double-digit sales growth in the quarter and our product development pipeline remains robust. To capitalize on anticipated improvement in our markets, we added staff to our sales and research and development organizations, which adversely


impacted our second quarter results but positions the Company well looking forward. We expect the second half of 2013 should provide an opportunity for improvement driven by the global increase in new sales account managers. However, if the overall macroeconomic environment remains stagnant for the rest of 2013, our markets may remain under some pressure.”
