CHASKA, Minn., Feb. 12, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Entegris, Inc. (NasdaqGS:ENTG - News) today reported its financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2008.
The Company recorded fourth-quarter sales of $112.7 million and a net loss of $131.8 million, or $1.18 per share. The fourth-quarter results included a goodwill impairment charge of $94.0 million, additional cost of sales of $7.8 million related to inventory acquired in the acquisition of Poco Graphite, investment impairment charges of $10.6 million, and a deferred tax valuation adjustment of $12.5 million. On a non-GAAP basis, the loss from continuing operations was $15.9 million, or $0.14 per share, which included restructuring charges of $7.3 million.
Fiscal 2008 sales were $554.7 million. The GAAP net loss was $517.0 million, or $4.59 per diluted share. The fiscal 2008 results included goodwill impairment charges of $473.8 million, non-cash purchase accounting charges of $13.5 million, investment impairment charges of $11.7 million, and deferred tax valuation adjustments of $39.4 million. The fiscal 2008 net loss from continuing operations on a non-GAAP basis was $1.6 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, which included restructuring charges of $10.6 million.
Gideon Argov, president and chief executive officer, said: ``The steep fourth-quarter decline in spending and production activity across the semiconductor industry was evident across our product lines. Even our unit-driven products, which are historically more stable during industry downturns, were adversely impacted by low fab utilization and output.''
Argov continued: ``To contend with this difficult environment, we have taken actions to reduce our targeted quarterly breakeven to less than $100 million on an EBITDA basis by the second half of 2009. To do this we have restructured the business to reduce our fixed costs by $28 million annually, supplemented by temporary cost reduction measures such as scheduled plant shutdowns and global salary reductions. We are confident these steps will enable us to effectively manage through a very challenging market environment, while ensuring our ability to sustain investments in critical engineering and development projects.''
Greg Graves, chief financial officer, said: ``In anticipation of the impact on our business of what may be a deep and extended downturn, we initiated a discussion with our bank group that resulted in a commitment letter to amend the terms of our revolving credit facility. Under the amended agreement, the primary loan covenant is a monthly cumulative EBITDA test that allows for losses over the next 12 months. In exchange for the flexibility this affords, we have reduced the size of the facility, shortened the maturity to November 2011, agreed to increase the interest rate on the borrowed funds, and granted a security interest in certain assets. We believe these amended terms, together with our year-end cash balance of $115 million, will provide the Company with ample liquidity to fund operations and necessary investments until our markets recover.''
