SAN JOSE, California - April 27, 2016 - NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR), a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended April 3, 2016.
Net revenue for the first quarter ended April 3, 2016 was $310.3 million, as compared to $309.2 million in the first quarter ended March 29, 2015, and $360.9 million in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2015. Net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the first quarter of 2016 was $16.6 million, or $0.50 net income per diluted share. This compared to GAAP net income of $8.0 million, or $0.23 net income per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2015, and GAAP net income of $21.8 million, or $0.66 net income per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP net income was $0.74 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2016, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.46 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2015 and $0.83 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2015.
Operating margin, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the first quarter of 2016 was 8.3%, as compared to 5.7% in the year ago comparable quarter, and 8.5% in the fourth quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP operating margin was 11.9% in the first quarter of 2016, as compared to 9.2% in the first quarter of 2015 and 10.8% in the fourth quarter of 2015.
The differences between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments, net of any tax effect, for amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring and other charges, losses on inventory commitments due to restructuring, litigation reserves, net, and gain on litigation settlements. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of financial measures computed on a GAAP basis to financial measures computed on a non-GAAP basis.
Patrick Lo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NETGEAR, commented, “We were pleased with our financial results for the first quarter of 2016, which came in slightly above the high end of our guidance for revenue and significantly above our guidance for operating margin. The Retail Business Unit and Commercial Business Unit both met our expectations, while the Service Provider Business Unit's revenue came in above what we had expected. Overall, our first quarter results reflect a strong start to the year for the Company.”
Mr. Lo continued, “During the quarter we saw continued strength in North America, positive year-over-year and sequential growth in APAC, while EMEA was challenged primarily due to the step down in Service Provider revenue."

Christine Gorjanc, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, added, "During the first quarter of 2016, we continued to be opportunistic buyers of NETGEAR equity and repurchased approximately 280,000 shares of common stock, which makes our total repurchase amount since Q4 2013 approximately 8.9 million shares. We continue to believe that stock repurchases are an effective way of returning capital to shareholders, and plan to be opportunistic buyers of our stock in the coming quarters.”
Ms. Gorjanc continued, "Looking forward to the second quarter of 2016, we expect net revenue to be in the range of $290 million to $305 million. Our revenue outlook reflects seasonality for the Retail Business Unit, and the previously announced $75 million quarterly revenue run rate for the Service Provider Business Unit. Non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be in the range of 9.5% to 10.5%. Our non-GAAP tax rate is expected to be approximately 34% for the second quarter of 2016.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, NETGEAR uses non-GAAP financial measures, which are adjusted to exclude certain expenses and tax adjustments, where applicable. We believe non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future. These adjustments to our current period GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of NETGEAR's underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before charges that are considered by management to be outside of our core operating results. In addition, these adjusted non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
