SemiLEDs Reports Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2018

Financial Results

Hsinchu, Taiwan (July 11, 2018) — SemiLEDs Corporation (NASDAQ: LEDS), “SemiLEDs” or the “Company,” a developer and manufacturer of LED chips and LED components, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, ended May 31, 2018.

Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 was $2.0 million, a 30% increase compared to $1.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. GAAP net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 was $326 thousand, compared to a loss of $1.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, or a net loss of $0.09 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.32 per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Due to the excess capacity charges that we have experienced for the last few years, considering the risk of technological obsolescence and according to the sales forecast production, we disposed of certain of our idle equipment during the third quarter of fiscal 2018, which reduced our net loss.

GAAP gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 was 8%, compared with gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 of negative 29%. Operating margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 was negative 18%, compared with negative 80% in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents was $3.7 million at May 31, 2018, compared to $3.9 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2018.

We expect revenue for the fourth quarter ending August 31, 2018 to be about $1.9 million +/- 10%.
