“inTEST delivered solid financial results for the first quarter, driven predominantly by continued semiconductor demand,” commented inTEST President & CEO Nick Grant. “Momentum has continued unabated, with strong demand for our innovative test and process technology solutions across a diverse set of end applications. Bookings have been steadily increasing over the past year and order flow during the quarter was exceptionally strong. First quarter consolidated bookings of $25.2 million approached the record levels we saw back in 2000, increasing 43% sequentially and 83% year-over-year. Consolidated net revenues of $19.6 million exceeded our guidance range and increased 31% sequentially and 74% year-over-year. Gross margin of 49% increased sequentially and on a year-over-year basis from 45% and 43%, respectively. And we returned to profitability for the quarter, reporting GAAP net earnings per diluted share of $0.21 and non-GAAP adjusted net earnings per diluted share of $0.24.”

 

Mr. Grant added, “We continue to make progress developing vertical growth markets and segments outside of the semiconductor market which will serve to lessen our dependency on this cyclical industry. However, at the present time the semi market is a considerable driver of our growth, given the strong industry tailwinds and broad end market demand for semiconductors, compounded by industry-wide chip shortages.

 

We are laser focused on capturing growth and driving investments that will position us well long-term and I am pleased with the progress we are making. We are setting the stage for our long-term growth and diversification, in-line with our strategic plan.”

 

2021 Second Quarter Financial Outlook

inTEST’s guidance for the 2021 second quarter includes both GAAP and non-GAAP financial estimates. A reconciliation between these GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is included below.

 

inTEST expects that net revenues for the 2021 second quarter will be in the range of $20.0 million to $21.0 million and that on a GAAP basis, our net earnings per diluted share will range from $0.20 to $0.24. On a non-GAAP basis, we expect our adjusted net earnings per diluted share will range from $0.23 to $0.27. In addition, we expect that our gross margin will range from 49% to 51%.

 

This outlook is based on the Company’s current views with respect to operating and market conditions and customers’ forecasts, which are subject to change. Actual results may differ materially as a result of, among other things, the factors described under “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we also disclose non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures consist of adjusted net earnings (loss), adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted share and EBITDA. Adjusted net earnings (loss) is derived by adding acquired intangible amortization, adjusted for the related income tax expense (benefit), to net earnings (loss). Adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted share is derived by dividing adjusted net earnings (loss) by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. EBITDA is derived by adding acquired intangible amortization, interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation to net earnings (loss). These results are provided as a complement to the results provided in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted net earnings (loss), adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted share and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures presented to provide investors with meaningful, supplemental information regarding our baseline performance before acquired intangible amortization charges as this expense may not be indicative of our current core business or future outlook. These measures may be useful to an investor in evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release are used by management to make operational decisions, to forecast future operational results, and for comparison with our business plan, historical operating results and the operating results of our peers. Reconciliations from net earnings (loss) and net earnings (loss) per diluted share to adjusted net earnings (loss) and adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted share and from net earnings (loss) to EBITDA, are contained in the tables below. The non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures or information provided in accordance with GAAP.
