National Instruments (Nasdaq: NATI) today announced Q4 2016 revenue of $329 million, down 2 percent year over year with core revenue up 3 percent year over year. The company’s definition of core revenue is GAAP revenue excluding the impact of NI’s largest customer and the impact of foreign currency exchange. A reconciliation of GAAP revenue to core revenue is included with this news release.
In Q4 2016, the impact of foreign currency exchange reduced our year-over-year order growth by 2 percent. NI received $2 million in orders from its largest customer compared with $9 million in orders from this customer in Q4 2015. Excluding NI’s largest customer, the company’s total order growth was up 2 percent year over year for the quarter; orders under $20,000 were down 2 percent year over year; orders between $20,000 and $100,000 were up 4 percent year over year; and orders above $100,000 were up 8 percent year over year.
GAAP net income for Q4 was $34 million, with fully diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.26, and non-GAAP net income was $44 million, with non-GAAP fully diluted EPS of $0.34. EBITDA, or Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, was $65 million.
In Q4, GAAP gross margin was 74.8 percent and non-GAAP gross margin was 75.8 percent. Total GAAP operating expenses were $197 million, down 1 percent year over year. Total non-GAAP operating expenses were flat year over year at $190 million. GAAP operating margin was 15 percent in Q4, with GAAP operating income of $49 million. Non-GAAP operating margin was 18 percent in Q4, with non-GAAP operating income of $60 million.
“As I start in my new role as CEO, I am committed to our vision and to strengthening our relationships with our customers,” said Alex Davern, NI president and CEO. “Looking to 2017, my top priorities will be growing revenue, leveraging our investments in our platform and people, and improving our operating margins.”
John Roiko, NI interim CFO, said, “While we were disappointed that we missed the midpoint of our revenue guidance in Q4, we did deliver three percent core revenue growth, maintained our strong gross margins, and kept our non-GAAP operating expenses and EPS flat year over year. With an increased focus on growing revenue and improving our operating margin, we are budgeting for a low single digit percent decline in headcount for 2017.”
Geographic revenue in U.S. dollar terms for Q4 2016 compared with Q4 2015 was up 2 percent in the Americas, up 1 percent in APAC, and down 7 percent in EMEIA. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange, revenue was up 2 percent in the Americas, up 1 percent in APAC, and relatively flat in EMEIA. Historical revenue from these three regions can be found on NI’s investor website at www.ni.com/nati.
As of Dec. 31, 2016, NI had $358 million in cash and short-term investments. During the quarter, NI paid $26 million in dividends. The NI Board of Directors approved a 5 percent increase to the quarterly dividend to $0.21 per share payable on Mar. 6, 2017, to stockholders of record on Feb. 13, 2017.
The company’s non-GAAP results exclude the impact of stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition-related transaction costs, taxes levied on the transfer of acquired intellectual property, foreign exchange loss on acquisitions, acquisition-related fair value adjustments, and restructuring charges. Reconciliations of the company’s GAAP and non-GAAP results are included as part of this news release.

- Core revenue up 3 percent year over year
- Fully diluted GAAP EPS of $0.68

Guidance for Q1 2017
NI currently expects Q1 revenue to be in the range of $285 million to $315 million, up 4.5 percent year-over-year at the midpoint. Based on current exchange rates, the company expects that the impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar will reduce the company’s year-over-year dollar revenue growth rate by approximately 1 percent in Q1. For 2017, NI estimates its non-GAAP effective tax rate to be approximately 21 percent. The company currently expects that GAAP fully diluted EPS will be in the range of $0.05 to $0.19 for Q1, with non-GAAP fully diluted EPS expected to be in the range of $0.11 to $0.25.
Non-GAAP Presentation
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with GAAP, NI discloses certain non-GAAP operating results and non-GAAP information that exclude certain charges. In this news release, the company has presented its year-over-year change in core revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, operating margin, income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, net income and basic and fully diluted EPS for the three- and twelve-month periods ending Dec. 31, 2016 and 2015, on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis. NI is also providing guidance on its non-GAAP fully diluted EPS and expected effective tax rate. The company is not able to provide guidance on its GAAP tax rate or a related reconciliation without unreasonable efforts since its future GAAP tax rate depends on its future stock price and related information that is not currently available.
When presenting non-GAAP information, the company includes a reconciliation of the non-GAAP results to the GAAP results. Management believes that including the non-GAAP results assists investors in assessing the company’s operational performance and its performance relative to its competitors. The company presents these non-GAAP results as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP, and these results should not be regarded as a substitute for GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to manage and assess the profitability and performance of its business and does not consider stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition-related transaction costs, taxes levied on the transfer of acquired intellectual property, foreign exchange loss on acquisitions, acquisition-related fair value adjustments, and restructuring charges in managing its operations. Specifically, management uses non-GAAP measures to plan and forecast future periods; to establish operational goals; to compare with its business plan and individual operating budgets; to measure management performance for the purposes of executive compensation, including payments to be made under bonus plans; to assist the public in measuring the company’s performance relative to the company’s long-term public performance goals; to allocate resources; and, relative to the company’s historical financial performance, to enable comparability between periods. Management also considers such non-GAAP results to be an important supplemental measure of its performance.
This news release discloses the company’s EBITDA for the three- and twelve-month periods ending Dec. 31, 2016 and 2015. The company believes that including the EBITDA results assists investors in assessing the company's operational performance relative to its competitors. A reconciliation of EBITDA to GAAP net income is included with this news release. This news release also discloses the year-over-year change in the company's core revenue for the three-month and 12-month periods ending Dec. 31, 2016. The company believes that including its core revenue assists investors in assessing the company’s operational performance. A reconciliation of GAAP revenue to core revenue is included with this news release.
