SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 28, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PDF Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq:PDFS), the leading provider of yield improvement technologies and services for the integrated circuit (IC) manufacturing process life cycle, today announced financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008.
Total revenue for the third fiscal quarter of 2008 totaled $18.8 million, down 11% from $21.1 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2008 and down 22% when compared with total revenue of $24.1 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2007. Gain share revenue totaled $5.4 million, down 4% from $5.7 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2008 and down 20% when compared to gain share revenue of $6.8 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2007. Net loss for the third fiscal quarter was $12.2 million, or $0.44 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.9 million, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share in the second fiscal quarter of 2008 and a net loss for the third fiscal quarter of 2007 of $939,000, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share.
In addition to using GAAP results in evaluating PDF Solutions' business, management also believes it is useful to measure results using a non-GAAP measure of net income, which excludes stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired technology and intangible assets, loss on sale of commercial paper from bankrupt institution, deferred tax asset valuation allowance and their related income tax effects, as applicable. Using this non-GAAP measure, the non-GAAP net income for the third fiscal quarter of 2008 totaled approximately $192,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $5.3 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the third fiscal quarter of 2007.
Additionally, during the third quarter ended September 30, 2008, PDF Solutions utilized a portion of the $10 million share repurchase plan previously authorized by its Board of Directors to repurchase 81,300 of its shares on the open market at a weighted average cost of $6.11, for a total repurchase value of $497,000. Early in the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2008, PDF Solutions completed its acquisition of the fault, detection and classification business of Triant Holdings, Inc., a British Columbia corporation. Additional information regarding this acquisition is described in Form 8-K's filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 2, 2008 and October 14, 2008.
As previously announced, PDF Solutions will discuss these results on a live conference call beginning at 3:00 p.m. Pacific Time/6:00 p.m. Eastern Time today. The call will be simultaneously web cast on PDF Solutions' website at http://ir.pdf.com/events.cfm. A replay of the web cast will be available at the same website address beginning approximately two hours after completion of the live call. Further, a copy of this press release, including the disclosure and reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures, which non-GAAP measures may be used periodically by PDF Solutions' management when discussing financial results with investors and analysts, will be available on PDF Solutions' website at http://www.pdf.com/news_archive.phtml following the date of this release.
Information Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing results that are determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (GAAP), PDF Solutions also provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired technology and intangible assets, loss on sale of commercial paper from bankrupt institutions, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, and their related income tax effects, as applicable. PDF Solutions' management believes that the presentation of these measures provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding PDF Solutions' operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management internally to measure the company's profitability and performance. PDF Solutions' management believes that excluding the effects of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired technology and intangible assets, loss on sale of commercial paper from bankrupt institution, deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and their related income tax effects, as applicable, provides a useful supplemental measure of the company's ongoing operations in light of the fact that none of these categories of expense has a current effect on the future uses of cash (with the exception of loss on sale of commercial paper from bankrupt institution) nor do they have use with regards to the generation of current or future revenues. These non-GAAP results should not be considered an alternative to, or a substitute for, GAAP financial information, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In particular, these non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures of income as a measure of performance, or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of liquidity. Since management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to measure profitability and performance, PDF Solutions has included these non-GAAP measures to give investors an opportunity to see the company's financial results as viewed by management. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measure is provided at the end of the company's financial statements presented below.
