Fiscal 2021 Highlights

  • Completion of the sale of our Photonics business, which closed in late December and is valued at up to $100 million, reflecting the up-front cash payment of $70 million and future earn-out payments of up to $30 million;
  • Substantial balance sheet strength, with our total balance of cash and investments growing to $121 million at year-end, equivalent to $4.92 per share, with total stockholders equity of $134 million, equivalent to $5.44 per share.
  • $10 million order booked in Q4, including one 200 Lean® system plus technology upgrades for a leading hard disk drive (HDD) manufacturer, contributing to a two-year record high for total new orders of $24 million during Q4, which increased our backlog to $25 million at year-end; and
  • Successful completion of first INTEVAC MATRIX® evaluation program for advanced semiconductor packaging, resulting in first revenues and product qualification in this new market for Intevac.

“With the sale of the Photonics business announced last month, we have completed an important milestone in our efforts to deliver increased stockholder value,” commented Nigel Hunton, Intevac’s new president and chief executive officer. “The board of directors has provided me with the immediate mandate to assess our revenue growth potential in each of our end markets, while streamlining the organization and positioning the Company for profitability and positive cash flow generation. We remain firmly committed to increasing stockholder value, while retaining the strength of our balance sheet and being responsible stewards of the Company’s cash and investments. My initial few months will be spent meeting with every key customer, both current and prospective, while at the same time ensuring that our organization is properly aligned with the most promising prospects for growth. I am excited to drive success and realize increased value for Intevac’s customers and stockholders.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Intevac's non-GAAP results exclude the impact of the following, where applicable: (i) gain on sale related to the divestiture of the Photonics division, (ii) asset impairment and restructuring charges and (iii) litigation settlements. A reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided in the financial tables included in this release.

Management uses non-GAAP results to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance in light of business objectives and for planning purposes. These measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Intevac believes these measures enhance investors’ ability to review the Company’s business from the same perspective as the Company’s management and facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

1The amount represents the accrual for settlement of the Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) lawsuit. The Company participated in a confidential mediation on February 1, 2022, and reached a settlement resolving the pending PAGA claim. We are awaiting approval by the court and the court's entry of a final judgment on record. Payment on the claims is expected to be made in the first half of 2022. The settlement effectively extinguished the lawsuit.

2Results for the years ended January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021 include severance and other employee-related costs related to restructuring programs.

3The amount represents the estimated income tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments. The Company calculated the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments by applying an applicable estimated jurisdictional tax rate to each specific non-GAAP item.

4The amount represents the gain on sale of the Photonics division. On December 30, 2021 the Company completed the sale of the Photonics division to EOTECH, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Buyer”) under an Asset Purchase Agreement in exchange for (i) $70.0 million in cash consideration (as may be increased or decreased by certain closing net working capital adjustments), (ii) up to $30.0 million in earnout payments and (iii) the assumption of certain liabilities of the Photonics division as specified in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, Buyer has agreed to pay the Company, if earned, earnout payments of up to an aggregate of $30.0 million based on achievement of fiscal year 2023, 2024 and 2025 Photonics division revenue targets for the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (“IVAS”) program. At any time prior to December 31, 2024, Buyer may elect to pay to the Company $14.0 million, which would terminate Buyer’s obligations with respect to any remaining earnout payments. The cash proceeds do not include any estimated future payments from the revenue earnout as the Company has elected to record the proceeds when the consideration is deemed realizable.

The Company incurred approximately of $3.2 million for transaction costs payable for investment banking, legal and other professional fees and other costs directly related to sale of the Photonics division.

5Asset impairment and restructuring charges associated with the sale of the Photonics division include (i) $693,000 in severance and other employee-related costs related to the termination of the Photonics general manager; (ii) $1.2 million in asset impairment charges on the Company’s right-of-use-asset and (iii) $665,000 in accruals for common area charges associated with an unused space commitment to Buyer.

In consideration of Buyer’s assumption of certain lease obligations related to the Company’s Santa Clara, California campus, which assumed lease obligations pertain in part to excess space beyond that required for Buyer’s currently anticipated operation of the Photonics division, the Company agreed to pay Buyer the amount of $2.1 million (the “Unused Space Amount”), which Unused Space Amount is payable in (i) one initial installment of $308,000 on January 10, 2022 and (ii) seven (7) equal quarterly installments of $259,000.

The Company recorded an asset impairment charge against its right-of-use asset in the amount of $1.2 million associated with the excess space noted above. The Company recorded a liability to the Buyer in the amount of $665,000, the amount related to common area charges which are not included in the base rental payments or the lease liability on the Company’s balance sheet.
