Net income (GAAP) for the second quarter decreased quarter-over-quarter to US$10.7 million or US$0.32 per diluted ADS from a net income of US$13.0 million or US$0.39 per diluted ADS in the first quarter of 2012.

Second Quarter 2012 Financial Review

Commenting on the results of the second quarter, Silicon Motion’s President and CEO, Wallace Kou, said:

“We are delighted that sales from our New Growth Products, specifically our LTE and SSD plus embedded products, more than offset the unfavorable market conditions relating to sales of our Core Products, and contributed strongly to our second quarter growth. Our LTE transceiver sales increased 23% sequentially as Samsung started initial build of its Galaxy SIII LTE smartphones for all three wireless carriers in Korea, including our first solution for a WCDMA network. We have also secured our first LTE design win for 2013, for an upcoming Samsung smartphone that is targeted at one of the larger US wireless carriers. Sales of eMMC controllers, our other major New Growth Product, ramped sharply, and we also began mass production of our eMMC controller for our second NAND flash partner. We are now supplying eMMC controllers to both Samsung and Hynix. eMMCs using our controllers will be used in many highly anticipated smartphones and tablets that have just launched or are about to launch into the market place. Strong sales from our eMMC and LTE products drove an 75% sequential growth in sales of our New Growth Products and a 9% increase in our overall sales. Already, New Growth Products account for 32% of our overall sales.

Sales of our Core Products declined 7% sequentially primarily because of market uncertainties created by volatile NAND flash market conditions. Our card controller sales were affected by continued rapid NAND flash price degradation, which affected module maker interest in building cards, as well as flash makers interest in both releasing components to the spot market and producing finished cards to sell to module makers. In addition, slower growth of the overall smartphone market this quarter affected our bundled card sales. USB flash drive controller sales however increased robustly sequentially as a result of increased availability of 19 to 21nm TLC NAND flash.”

Sales

Net sales in the second quarter were US$69.7 million, an increase of 8.8% compared with the previous quarter. For the quarter, mobile storage products accounted for 73% of net sales and mobile communications 22% of net sales.

 

2


Net sales of our mobile storage products, which primarily include flash memory cards, USB flash drives, SSD and embedded flash controllers, increased 10% sequentially in the second quarter to US$50.7 million.

Net sales of mobile communication products, which primarily include handset transceivers and mobile TV IC solutions, increased 4% from the first quarter of 2012 to US$15.7 million this quarter.

Gross and Operating Margins

Gross margin (non-GAAP) decreased to 49.1% in the second quarter from 49.5% in the first quarter of 2012. GAAP gross margin decreased to 48.9% in the second quarter from 49.4% in the first quarter of 2012.

Operating expenses (non-GAAP) were US$17.2 million, which was higher than the US$16.8 million expended in the first quarter. Research and development expenditures (non-GAAP) were US$11.3 million, which was higher than the US$10.4 million in the previous quarter. Selling and marketing expenses (non-GAAP) were US$3.3 million, which was lower compared to the US$3.5 million in the previous quarter. General and administrative expenses (non-GAAP) were US$2.7 million, which was lower compared to the US$2.9 million in the previous quarter. Stock-based compensation was US$3.4 million in the second quarter, higher than the US$1.6 million in the first quarter. There were no acquisition-related charges in the second quarter of 2012.

Operating margin (non-GAAP) was 24.3%, an increase from 23.3% in the previous quarter. GAAP operating margin was 19.4% for the second quarter, a decrease from the 20.8% in the first quarter.

Other Income and Expenses

Net total other income (non-GAAP) was US$0.3 million, unchanged compared to the previous quarter. GAAP net total other expense was US$0.2 million, a decrease from a net total other income of US$0.9 million in the first quarter. The decrease in GAAP net total other income was primarily due to a foreign exchange gain in the first quarter of US$0.6 million compared to a foreign exchange loss in the second quarter of US$0.5 million.

Earnings

Net income (non-GAAP) was US$14.6 million this quarter, an increase from US$14.0 million in the first quarter. Diluted earnings per ADS (non-GAAP) were US$0.42 in the second quarter, an increase from US$0.41 in the first quarter.

GAAP net income was US$10.7 million during the second quarter, a decrease from the net income of US$13.0 million in the first quarter. Diluted GAAP earnings per ADS in the second quarter were US$0.32, a decrease from US$0.39 in the previous quarter.

Balance Sheet

Cash and cash equivalents increased to US$113.6 million at the end of the second quarter of 2012 from US$94.7 million at the end of the first quarter of 2012.

Business Outlook:

Silicon Motion’s President and CEO, Wallace Kou, added:

“We expect that our New Growth Products will continue to deliver strong revenue growth in the second half of 2012 as we scale our eMMC controllers business further and increase our shipments of LTE transceivers to Samsung. We believe that our strong New Growth Product sales should continue and offset softness in some of our Core Products.”

For the third quarter of 2012, management expects:

 

   

Revenue to be up 5% to 8% sequentially

 

   

Gross margin (non-GAAP) to be in the 47% to 49% range

 

   

Operating expenses (non-GAAP) of approximately US$17 to US$18 million

Our previously provided full-year 2012 guidance remains unchanged.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s unaudited selected financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation, acquisition-related charges and other items, including non-GAAP cost of sales, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP selling, general, and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP earnings per diluted ADS. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative to GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We compensate for the limitations of our non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance.

Our non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the user’s overall understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects for the future. Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors as these non-GAAP results exclude certain expenses, gains and losses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results and because it is consistent with the financial models and estimates published by many analysts who follow the Company. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with our forecasts, and for benchmarking our performance externally against our competitors. Also, when evaluating potential acquisitions, we exclude the items described below from our consideration of the target’s performance and valuation. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that our investors benefit from seeing the results from management’s perspective in addition to seeing our GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

 

   

the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s on-going operating results;

 

   

the ability to better identify trends in the Company’s underlying business and perform related trend analysis;

 

   

a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business; and

 

   

an easier way to compare the Company’s operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of our competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

 

7


The following are explanations of each of the adjustments that we incorporate into our non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding each of these individual items in our reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges related to the fair value of stock options and restricted stock units awarded to employees. The Company believes that the exclusion of these non-cash charges provides for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to our peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types. In addition, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact of share-based compensation on its operating results.

Acquisition-related charges consist of non-cash charges that can be impacted by the timing and magnitude of our acquisitions. We consider our operating results without these charges when evaluating our ongoing performance and forecasting our earnings trends, and therefore exclude such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of our competitors. Acquisition-related charges include the following:

 

   

Amortization of intangible assets relates to the amortization of core technology, customer relationship, and other intangibles acquired as part of an acquisition.

Litigation expenses consist of legal expenses relating to intellectual property disputes, commercial claims and other types of litigation. While litigation may arise in the ordinary course of our business, we nevertheless consider litigation to be an unusual, non-recurring and unplanned activity and therefore exclude these types of charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.

Foreign exchange gains and losses prior to January 1, 2012, consist of translation gains and/or losses of non-NT$ denominated current assets and current liabilities, as well as certain other balance sheet items which result from the appreciation or depreciation of non-NT$ currencies against the NT$. Beginning January 1, 2012, due to a change in functional currency of our largest operating subsidiary, we changed our reporting currency from the NT$ to US$ and subsequently our foreign exchange gains and losses now consist of translation gains and/or losses of non-US$ denominated current assets and current liabilities, as well as certain other balance sheet items which result from the appreciation or depreciation of non-US$ currencies against the US$. We do not use financial instruments to manage the impact on our operations from changes in foreign exchange rates, and because our operations are subject to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, we therefore exclude foreign exchange gains and losses when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
