PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ:PCTI), a leader in Performance Critical Telecom solutions, announced its 2015 first quarter results.
First Quarter Highlights
- $26.3 million in revenue for the quarter, an increase of 11 percent from the same period last year. $1.2 million of the increase reflected revenue from our most recent acquisition. Organic growth was six percent.
- Gross profit margin of 39 percent in the quarter, compared to 41 percent for the same period last year.
- GAAP operating margin of just under break even for the quarter, compared to operating margin of negative two percent for the same period last year.
- GAAP net loss of $33,000 for the quarter, or $(0.00) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $146,000, or $(0.01) per diluted share for the same period last year.
- Non-GAAP operating profit and net income are measures the company
uses to reflect the results of its core earnings. 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.
- Non-GAAP operating margin of four percent in the quarter, compared to five percent in the same period last year. The first quarter 2015 incurred expenses for the Nexgen acquisition totaling three percent of revenue.
- Non-GAAP net income of $904,000 or $0.05 per diluted share in the quarter, compared to $914,000 or $0.05 per diluted share in the same period last year. The first quarter 2015 incurred expenses for the Nexgen acquisition totaling $0.03 per share.
- $38.9 million of cash and short-term investments at March 31, 2015, a decrease of approximately $21.1 million from the preceding quarter. During the quarter the Company used $20.5 million of cash for the Nexgen acquisition and $929,000 for the regular quarterly dividend, and generated $278,000 of cash and investments from all other sources.
“While pleased with year-over-year-growth, we had anticipated stronger engineering services and continued strength in antenna and mobile tower sales into the oil and gas industry,” said Marty Singer, PCTEL’s Chairman and CEO. “Fortunately, we have seen a rebound in spending on engineering services, positive market reaction to the IBflex® and SeeWave™, and stronger broadband wireless antenna sales to our major OEMs, and the benefit of our recent acquisition. We anticipate a much stronger second quarter,” added Singer.
