Wind River Reports First Quarter Revenues of $32.6 Million
ALAMEDA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 20, 1999--Wind River Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:WIND), the world leader in embedded development software and engineering services for the post-PC era, reported operating results for the first quarter ended April 30, 1999.
Total revenues for the first quarter were $32.6 million, a 23% increase from revenues of $26.4 million reported in the same period of fiscal 1999. Operating income in the first quarter was $6.4 million, compared to $6.3 million for the corresponding period in fiscal year 1999. Net income, including one-time charges, for the first quarter of fiscal year 2000 was $4.2 million, compared to net income of $4.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 1999.
As announced on April 7, 1999, Wind River Systems purchased certain assets of Xact, Inc. As part of this acquisition, Wind River Systems hired the Xact employee team and incurred pre-tax charges of approximately $800,000 related to the impairment of previous investments and distribution arrangements with Xact. The one-time charges are included in other income.
For the first quarter, diluted earnings per share of $0.10 decreased from $0.11 earned in the same period in fiscal 1999. Excluding the pre-tax charges associated with the Xact transaction, Wind River Systems would have earned $0.11 per diluted share. All diluted earnings per share numbers have been adjusted to reflect a 3-for-2 stock split on February 4, 1999.
"Given the quarter reset that we made in early April, I am happy that we met the revised revenue and earnings goals," stated Ronald A. Abelmann, president and CEO. "Our acquisition of the assets of Xact and the successful recruitment of its engineering team, combined with the production release of Tornado(TM) II, should provide an excellent baseline for continued growth through the year," added Abelmann.
"Shortly after the close of the quarter, we began shipping Tornado II, the first major upgrade to our award-winning development environment for embedded software. As the embedded industry becomes more mainstream and post-PC era takes hold, new developers are entering our market with a different set of expectations. The ease-of-use in Tornado II will fuel innovation and accelerate the introduction of new products," said Jerry Fiddler, chairman and co-founder of Wind River Systems.
