QLogic Reports First Quarter Results for Fiscal Year 2004 Revenues and Net Income Reach Record Levels
Aliso Viejo, Calif., July 16, 2003 - QLogic Corporation (Nasdaq:QLGC), the company that powers storage area networks (SANs), today announced its first quarter financial results for the period ended June 29, 2003.
Net revenues on a GAAP basis for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 were a record $126.2 million, up 5% sequentially from the $120.6 million reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. Fibre Channel revenues for the first quarter were up 9% sequentially to a record $93.9 million and represented 74% of the Company's total revenue. Net income on a GAAP basis for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 was a record $31.7 million, or $0.33 per share on a diluted basis. This was an increase of 6% sequentially from the $29.9 million, or $0.31 per share on a diluted basis, reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003.
Net revenues for the first quarter increased 28% from the $99.0 million reported in the comparable quarter last year on a GAAP basis. Fibre Channel revenues for the first quarter were up 40% from the comparable quarter last year. First quarter net income on a GAAP basis increased 37% from the $23.1 million, or $0.24 per share on a diluted basis, reported in the first quarter of last year.
Revenues on a pro forma basis of $126.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 and $120.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 were the same as the net revenues reported on a GAAP basis. Pro forma net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 was a record $33.8 million, or $0.35 per share on a diluted basis, up 6% sequentially from the $32.0 million, or $0.33 per share on a diluted basis, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003.
Revenues on a pro forma basis for the first quarter increased 25% from the $100.8 million recorded in the comparable quarter last year. Fibre Channel revenues on a pro forma basis for the first quarter were up 36% from the $68.8 million recorded in the comparable quarter last year. Pro forma net income for the first quarter increased 31% from the $25.8 million, or $0.27 per share on a diluted basis, for the first quarter of last year.
The pro forma non-GAAP results are a supplement to financial statements based on GAAP and these results include adjustments primarily for non-cash items associated with merger related stock compensation charges and sales discounts for stock warrants. QLogic uses pro forma information to evaluate its on-going operating performance and believes this presentation provides investors with additional insight into its underlying operating results and business trends. A reconciliation between the GAAP and pro forma non-GAAP results is included in the accompanying financial data.
"QLogic once again established new records for quarterly revenue and net income. Our pro forma revenue growth during the first quarter was highlighted by a significant growth in our Fibre Channel sales, which increased 9% sequentially and 36% over the comparable quarter of last year," said H.K. Desai, the Company's chairman, chief executive officer and president. "We believe these results further validate the increasing market acceptance of our products and clearly identifies QLogic as a leader in the storage networking industry."
The Company's balance sheet was again highlighted by an increase in cash and short-term investments, ending the quarter with $694.3 million, an increase of $51.1 million during the quarter.
