Genesis Microchip Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2002 Financial Results

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 29, 2002--Genesis Microchip Inc. (Nasdaq:GNSS - news), a world leader in the development of display technologies, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter of its 2002 fiscal year, which ended March 31, 2002.

Fiscal 2002 Financial Highlights

Record fiscal 2002 revenues of $163.4 million increased 157 percent over fiscal 2001

Record pro forma net income(1) of $27.2 million was more than 10 times net income of $2.7 million in fiscal 2001
Record pro forma EPS(1) of $1.13, up from $0.13 in fiscal 2001

Net income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles was $18.0 million, or $0.74 per diluted share in fiscal 2002, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in fiscal 2001

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2002 Financial Highlights

Revenue of $56.1 million tripled year-over-year and was up 13 percent sequentially

Pro forma net income(1) of $8.9 million, or $0.32 per diluted share

Loss in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles was ($336,000), or ($0.01) per share compared to a loss of ($2.8) million, or ($0.15) per share, in the March 2001 quarter

Charges recorded in fiscal 2002 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles included $1.0 million for amortization of core technology, $4.7 million for in-process R&D expense, $850,000 for amortization of deferred stock compensation and $1.9 million for restructuring costs, all of which related to the acquisitions of Sage, Inc. and the technology assets of VM Labs, Inc. in the March 2002 quarter. Including these charges, net income for the year ended March 31, 2002 was $18.0 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, and the loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was ($336,000) or ($0.01) per share.

"Our financial performance in the fourth quarter and 2002 fiscal year reflects our success as a leader in the high-growth flat panel display market," said Amnon Fisher, CEO of Genesis Microchip. "As we enter our 2003 fiscal year, the company is well-positioned to extend its leadership position in the display sector to the LCD television market and other emerging high-growth display markets."

Business Outlook

The following statements are based on current expectations. Please see the cautionary language below under "Safe Harbor Statement."

The company estimates first quarter fiscal 2003 revenue will exceed $60 million. The company expects the highest sequential quarterly rates of growth to occur in the last half of the fiscal year. While estimating revenue is very difficult given the uncertain economic environment, the company is estimating revenue will be in the range of $250 million to $270 million for the entire 2003 fiscal year. Revenue is dependent on factors including, but not limited to, the growth rate of the flat panel monitor and flat panel television markets, the supply of products from the company's third party foundries, the company's ability to maintain design wins with customers, timely new product introductions, and general economic conditions.

The company expects gross profit margins in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 to be about 40 percent. The company expects gross profit margins in fiscal 2003 as a whole to exceed 42 percent during the remaining quarters of the year and to average about 42 percent for the year as whole. Gross profit margins may be higher or lower than expected due to many factors including, but not limited to, manufacturing yields, competitive pricing actions, changes in estimated product costs, revenue levels, and changes in estimated product mix.

The company expects combined operating expenses for R&D and SG&A of approximately $14.0 to $14.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003, and to average 20 to 22 percent of revenues for the entire fiscal year.

The company expects accounting charges related to the amortization of core technology and amortization of deferred stock compensation to aggregate approximately $4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and approximately $16 million for the entire 2003 fiscal year.
The company expects the tax rate for fiscal 2003 to be approximately 25 percent of pro forma pretax income(1).
