Fabrinet Announces First Quarter Fiscal Year 2018 Financial Results

BANGKOK, Thailand – November 6, 2017 – Fabrinet (NYSE: FN), a leading provider of advanced optical packaging and precision optical, electro-mechanical and electronic manufacturing services to original equipment manufacturers of complex products, today announced its financial results for its first quarter ended September 29, 2017.

Tom Mitchell, Executive Chairman of Fabrinet, said, “Our first quarter revenue was within our guidance range. Growth from datacom and non-optical communications products were healthy compared to a year ago, with new programs and advanced technologies including silicon photonics and QSFP28 as notable contributors. However, tempered demand for telecom products resulted in a flat performance in that category compared to a year ago.”

“We believe our strategy to drive our growth by attracting new customers and winning new programs from existing customers, while supporting increased production of existing programs continues to be successful,” added Mr. Mitchell. “We are optimistic that by continuing to execute on this strategy we can continue to drive profitable growth as we look ahead.”

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2018 Financial Highlights

GAAP Results

 

    Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, a 13-week quarter, was $357.3 million, an increase of 8% compared to revenue of $332.0 for the comparable period in fiscal year 2017, a 14-week quarter.

 

    GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 was $21.0 million, compared to GAAP net income of $22.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 included a foreign exchange loss of $1.9 million, or $0.05 per diluted share.

 

    GAAP net income per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 was $0.55, compared to GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.61 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2017.

Non-GAAP Results

 

    Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 was $28.6 million, compared to non-GAAP net income of $29.7 million for the same period a year ago.

 

    Non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 was $0.75, a decrease from non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.80 for the same period a year ago.

Forward-Looking Statements

“Safe Harbor” Statement Under U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include: (1) statements regarding our ability to continue to drive profitable growth; and (2) all of the statements under the “Business Outlook” section regarding our expected revenue and GAAP and non-GAAP net income per share for the second quarter of fiscal year 2018. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary materially from these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: less customer demand for our products and services than forecasted; less growth in the optical communications, industrial lasers and sensors markets than we forecast; difficulties expanding into additional markets, such as the semiconductor processing, biotechnology, metrology and materials processing markets; increased competition in the optical manufacturing services markets; difficulties in delivering products and services that compete effectively from a price and performance perspective; our reliance on a small number of customers and suppliers; difficulties in managing our operating costs; difficulties in managing and operating our business across multiple countries (including Thailand, the People’s Republic of China, the U.S. and the U.K.); and other important factors as described in reports and documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including the factors described under the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on August 23, 2017. We disclaim any obligation to update information contained in these forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.


Use of Non-GAAP Financials

We refer to the non-GAAP financial measures cited above in making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our ongoing operational performance. Non-GAAP net income excludes: share-based compensation expenses; depreciation of fair value uplift; executive separation costs; amortization of intangibles; business combination expenses; gain on foreign currency contracts; amortization of debt issuance costs; and restructuring charges. We have excluded these items in order to enhance investors’ understanding of our underlying operations. The use of these non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations because they should not be used to evaluate our company without reference to their corresponding GAAP financial measures. As such, we compensate for these material limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures.

These non-GAAP financial measures are used to: (1) measure company performance against historical results, (2) facilitate comparisons to our competitors’ operating results, and (3) allow greater transparency with respect to information used by management in making financial and operational decisions. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are used to measure company performance for the purposes of determining employee incentive plan compensation.
