PCTEL Posts $14.8 Million in Fourth Quarter Revenue from Continuing Operations
BLOOMINGDALE, Ill. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCTI), a leader in propagation and
optimization solutions for the wireless industry, announced results for
the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009.
Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights -
Continuing Operations
-
$14.8 million in revenue from continuing operations for the quarter,
a decrease of 19% over the same period in 2008.
-
GAAP Gross Profit Margin from continuing operations of 47 percent,
unchanged from the same period in 2008.
-
GAAP Operating Margin from continuing operations of a negative (4)
percent as compared to a negative (87) percent in the same period
in 2008. The operating results for the fourth quarter 2008 included a
$16.7 million impairment of goodwill related to its past acquisitions
that comprise its Broadband Technology Group. Without the impairment
charge the GAAP operating margin for the fourth quarter of 2008 would
have been positive 5 percent.
-
Non-GAAP Operating Margin from continuing operations of 4 percent versus
12 percent in the same period in 2008. The Company's reporting of
non-GAAP operating margin excludes expenses for restructuring, gain or
loss on sale of assets, stock based compensation, amortization and
impairment of intangible assets and goodwill related to the Company's
acquisitions.
-
GAAP net loss from continuing operations of $(572,000) for the
quarter, or $(0.03) per share, compared to a net loss of $(10.8)
million, or $(0.61) per diluted share for the same period in 2008. The
$11 million difference is primarily attributed to the fourth quarter
2008 impairment of goodwill net of tax.
-
Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations of $662,000 for the
quarter, or $0.04 per diluted share compared to $568,000 of net
income, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the same period in 2008. The
Company's reporting of non-GAAP net income excludes expenses for
restructuring, gain or loss on sale of assets, stock based
compensation, amortization and impairment of intangible assets and
goodwill related to the Company's acquisitions, and non-cash related
income tax expense.
-
The company acquired Ascom's scanning receiver operation and the
distribution rights and intellectual property (IP) associated with
Wider Networks' interference management product line in the fourth
quarter 2009. There were no significant operating results in the
fourth quarter, due to the timing of the transactions.
-
$75.6 million of cash, short-term investments, and long-term
investments at December 31, 2009, a decrease of $2.9 million from
the quarter ended September 30, 2009. During the fourth quarter the
company paid out cash of $4.3 million for the Ascom scanning receiver
acquisition, $800,000 related to the distribution rights and patented
technology in the IP litigation settlement with Wider Networks, and
approximately $1.0 million for the repurchase of 167,000 common shares
pursuant to its stock buyback program. The company generated
approximately $3.2 million in cash and investments from all other
sources during the quarter. Additionally, the company received the
final liquidation payment during the fourth quarter from its
investment in Bank of America's Columbia Strategic Cash Portfolio Fund.
"We were pleased with the third, consecutive quarterly increase in
revenues," said Marty Singer, PCTEL's Chairman and CEO. "The migration
to 4G technologies is beginning to fuel the growth of our GPS and WiMax
antennas. This transition also creates additional demand for our new LTE
scanning receivers which are utilized in early network deployment,
network optimization, and drive testing," added Singer.
The Company completed the sale of its Mobility Solutions Group (MSG) in
January, 2008. The Company's financial statements reflect MSG as a
discontinued operation.

This schedule reconciles the company's GAAP operating income and
GAAP net income from continuing operations to its
|
|
|
non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income from continuing
operations. The company believes that presentation
|
|
|
of this schedule provides meaningful supplemental information to
both management and investors that is indicative of the
|
|
|
company's core operating results and facilitates comparison of
operating results across reporting periods. The company uses
|
|
|
these non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial results as
well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. These
|
|
|
non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the
company's GAAP results.
