Microsemi Reports Improved Sales and Profits Over Prior Quarter

Thursday April 24, 4:03 pm ET

-- Second Quarter Results beat Consensus Estimates

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 24, 2003-- -- Revenues Increase 5% over First Quarter
Positive Book-to-Bill Ratio of 1.06 for Second Quarter
Microsemi Corp. (Nasdaq:MSCC - News) today reported results for its fiscal 2003 second quarter.

Net sales for the quarter ended March 30, 2003 were $48.2 million, down 12% compared with net sales of $55 million in the second quarter of 2002, but up 5% from net sales of $45.9 million in the first quarter.

Second quarter pro forma net income was $0.8 million, or $0.03 per share diluted, down 69% compared with $2.6 million, or $0.09 per share diluted, in the second quarter of last year but up 385% from the $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share diluted, in the company's first quarter of fiscal year 2003. Pro forma earnings are explained in the attached tables.

James J. Peterson, president and CEO, stated that, "We are very pleased with our second quarter results which reflect a 5% sequential quarter over quarter increase in sales and a $0.02 sequential increase in pro forma earnings per share diluted."

Revenues for the first six months of fiscal 2003 were $94.1 million compared with the first six months of last fiscal year of $112 million. Pro forma net income for the first six months of fiscal year 2003 totaled $1 million, or $0.03 per share diluted, compared with $7.6 million, or $0.25 per share diluted, in the first half of fiscal year 2002.

The book-to-bill ratio for the quarter was 1.06.

The company's earnings as calculated under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for the second quarter were $2.1 million, or $0.07 per share diluted, compared with losses of $2.6 million, or $0.09 per share diluted in the second quarter of last year and $1.6 million, or $0.06 per share diluted in its first quarter of fiscal year 2003. The company's earnings as calculated under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for the first six months of fiscal year 2003 were $0.5 million, or $0.02 per share diluted, compared with $1.6 million, or $0.06 per share diluted in the first six months of last year.

Business Outlook

The book-to-bill ratio for the first two quarters has seen positive change. Based upon this and other factors, the sales outlook for the third quarter is expected to be up 2 to 4 percent over the second quarter. Pro forma earnings per share diluted for the third quarter are expected to be between $0.03 and $0.05.

Non pro forma (or GAAP) based earnings are expected to be $0.02 to $0.04 per share diluted reflecting the $0.3 million after tax charge for amortization of acquisition-related intangible costs. The gross margin percentage for the third quarter is expected to increase 20 to 50 basis points over the second quarter.
