Net revenues in the third quarter of 2009 were $130.9 million, an increase of 6 percent compared to $123.2 million in the second quarter of 2009 and 6 percent lower than net revenues of $139.4 million reported in the third quarter of 2008.

Net income in the third quarter of 2009 on a GAAP basis was $27.8 million (GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.12) compared with net income of $7.8 million (GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.03) in the second quarter of 2009 and net income of $4.5 million (GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.02) in the third quarter of 2008.

Non-GAAP net income in the third quarter of 2009 was $34.5 million (non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.15), an increase of 16 percent compared to $29.7 million (non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.13) in the second quarter of 2009, and two cents per share above the non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.13 achieved in the third quarter of 2008 when revenues reached $139.4 million.

“In the third quarter of 2009, we benefited from improved demand in our Storage business, led by the continued ramp in our new 6Gb/s SAS RAID-on-Chip device at H-P, as well as growth in our Microprocessor business,” said Greg Lang, president and chief executive officer of PMC-Sierra. “This past quarter, we achieved the highest level of non-GAAP operating income in the last nine years on revenue that was 6 percent below peak quarterly revenue last year.”

Net income on a non-GAAP basis in the third quarter of 2009 excludes the following items: (i) $5.1 million stock-based compensation expense; (ii) $0.3 million recovery of previously accrued termination costs; (iii) $9.8 million amortization of purchased intangible assets; (iv) $0.2 million restructuring costs; (v) $0.8 million of non-cash interest expense for the accretion of the debt discount related to the senior convertible notes; (vi) $1.0 million foreign exchange loss on foreign tax liabilities; and (vii) $9.9 million income tax recovery.

For a full reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP net income, please refer to the schedule included with this release. The Company believes the additional non-GAAP measures are useful to investors for the purpose of financial analysis. Management uses the non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate its in-period operating performance before gains, losses and other charges that are considered by management to be outside of the Company’s core operating results. In addition, the measures are used to plan for the Company’s future periods. However, non-GAAP measures are neither stated in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures.

The Company made the following announcements in Q3 2009:

  • We introduced the META 20G device that enables Carrier Ethernet Switch and Router (CESR) equipment to seamlessly connect to emerging Metro Optical Transport Networks (OTN). The META 20G enables a converged OTN infrastructure across IP and optical equipment with unified end-to-end network management. The device integrates Carrier Ethernet mapping and framing of 10GE LAN and WAN, and OTN mapping of IP-services such as Storage Area Networks (SAN) and Video protocols, while maintaining Packet over SONET/SDH service. The META 20G is the latest addition to PMC-Sierra’s OTN product portfolio, which includes the HyPHY 20G and HyPHY 10G for Packet Optical Transport Platforms (P-OTP) and Multi-Service Provisioning Platforms (MSPP). The portfolio provides a chipset solution for end-to-end integration of OTN across metro networks.
  • In Q3, we announced the volume production of our maxSAS™ end-to-end chipset for 6Gb/s SAS enterprise storage systems. PMC-Sierra’s complete 6Gb/s SAS chipset—which includes the Tachyon® SPC 8x6G SAS protocol controller, SXP 36x6GSec 36-port and SXP 24x6GSec 24-port SAS Expanders, and system management firmware—is shipping in volume to multiple leading storage and server OEMs.

* Effective December 29, 2008, the Company retrospectively adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 470, the Debt Topic for the accounting of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlements). Accordingly, the comparative condensed consolidated financial statements have been restated.

       

As a supplement to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company provides additional non-GAAP measures for cost of revenues, gross profit, gross profit percentage, research and development expense, selling, general and administrative expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, restructuring costs and other charges, other income (expense), provision for (recovery of) income taxes, operating expenses, operating income, net income, and basic and diluted net income per share.

 

A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.  The Company believes that the additional non-GAAP measures are useful to investors for the purpose of financial analysis.  Management uses these measures internally to evaluate the Company's in-period operating performance before gains, losses and other charges that are considered by management to be outside of the Company's core operating results.  In addition, the measures are used for planning and forecasting of the Company's future periods.  However, non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures.  Other companies may use different non-GAAP measures and presentation of results.
