Financial Results
 
Q2 2013: Revenues for the second quarter increased by 51% to $15.7 million from $10.4 million in the second quarter of 2012. This is Silicom’s third straight quarter with approximately 50% year-over-year revenue increase.
 
On a GAAP basis, net income for the period totalled $3.3 million, or $0.45 per diluted share ($0.46 per basic share), a 44% increase compared with $2.3 million, or $0.33 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2012.
 
On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), net income totalled $3.5 million, or $0.48 per diluted share ($0.49 per basic share), a 45% increase compared with $2.4 million, or $0.34 per diluted and basic share, for the second quarter of 2012.
 
H1 2012: Revenues for the first half of 2013 increased by 50% to $30.7 million from $20.5million in the first half of 2012.
 
On a GAAP basis, net income for the period totalled $6.4 million, or $0.89 per diluted share ($0.90 per basic share), up 50% compared with $4.3 million, or $0.61 per basic and diluted share, in the first half of 2012.
 
On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), net income for the period totalled $6.7 million, or $0.93 per diluted share ($0.95 per basic share), a 51% increase compared with $4.5 million, or $0.63 per diluted share ($0.64 per basic share), for the first six months of 2012.
 
Comments of Management
 
Commenting on the results, Shaike Orbach, President and CEO, said, “The second quarter was another period of strong momentum marked by 50% revenue growth and significant new Design Wins with both new and existing customers.
 
“During the quarter, we were excited to report two major deals: one with a long-term strategic customer, which is now standardizing on our solutions for a variety of modules and appliance product lines, ramping our sales to that customer to about $4 million per year; and a Design Win from an important new customer for SETAC kits and modules with potential sales of about $1 million per year. Both of these customers are considering ways to use additional Silicom products in more of their products: a concrete demonstration of the continued growth-driving power of our 90+ customers.”
 
 
 

 
 
Mr. Orbach continued, “In fact, close customer relationships such as these are the ‘secret weapon’ that enables us to continue creating truly innovative solutions – solutions that match the real needs and the new trends emerging in this rapidly evolving industry, while at the same time expanding our total addressable market. With the SDN, NFV, virtualization and cloud computing concepts all based on the use of standard servers, and with our solutions recognized as important building blocks for enhancing standard server performance, we now have a major opportunity to benefit from these new market trends. The combination of our customer-driven market insight, our technological expertise, our quick response time and our collaborative approach helps us take full advantage of these and other external growth drivers, enabling us to continue growing and developing our Company for the benefit of our shareholders.”
