BANGKOK, Nov 07, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Fabrinet (NYSE: FN), a provider of precision optical, electro-mechanical and electronic manufacturing services to original equipment manufacturers of complex products, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, ended September 30, 2011.
Fabrinet reported total revenue of $186.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, an increase of 7.3% compared to revenue of $173.7 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2011. GAAP net income in the first quarter was $15.7 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, an increase of 3.0% compared to GAAP net income of $15.2 million, or $0.44 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP net income in the first quarter was $16.6 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, an increase of 7.8% compared to non-GAAP net income of $15.4 million, or $0.45 per share in the first quarter of 2011.
Tom Mitchell, Chief Executive Officer of Fabrinet, said, "While we are pleased to have achieved our 47th consecutive quarter of profitability during the September quarter, our attention is focused on recovering from the flood waters that have impacted our operations in Thailand. Through the tireless efforts and resourcefulness of our employees, and in the midst of this natural disaster, we are preparing to resume production at our Pinehurst campus, one of our two manufacturing campuses in Thailand. In fact, today we began production at Pinehurst on a limited scale and anticipate ramping to full production at the Pinehurst campus during the next two weeks."
Production at Fabrinet's Pinehurst campus had been suspended for approximately three weeks due to flooding of the main artery and access roads to the campus. Water breached the company's other Thailand campus, known as Chokchai, on Saturday evening, October 22 and the water level within the campus buildings rose to as high as five feet. Production will not recommence at Chokchai, located approximately seven miles south of Pinehurst, for the rest of the current quarter, and likely for significantly longer. The company acknowledges that it may never again manufacture at the Chokchai campus but, instead, divert manufacturing to the existing buildings 3, 4 & 5 at its Pinehurst campus, and its newest building 6 at Pinehurst, upon completion.
Business Outlook
Based on information available as of November 7, 2011, and due to the damage resulting from seasonal monsoon flood waters in Thailand that has caused the suspension of production at its manufacturing campuses in Thailand, Fabrinet is issuing limited guidance for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. If the company generates no further revenues from Thailand operations during the quarter, the company anticipates total revenues for the quarter to be approximately $28M, representing primarily revenues generated before production shutdown at its Thailand facilities, together with revenues from its Casix and Vitrocom businesses throughout the quarter. The company anticipates generating additional revenue in excess of that minimum, but, at this time, is unable to determine to what level. The company cannot currently anticipate net operating results for the quarter, although it anticipates suffering a net loss due to the significant decline in revenue and the timing and result of insurance claims by the company.

Safe Harbor
"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 our expectations regarding the timing and scale of our future production at our Pinehurst facilities, our plans regarding our Chokchai facilities and the potential diversion of that production capacity to our operations at Pinehurst, all of the statements under the "Business Outlook" section relating to our forecasted operating results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 and the expectation that the company will be able to recover for insurance claims that it may make resulting from the floods in Thailand. 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: the flooding situation in Thailand could continue for an extended period of time and could even worsen; despite resuming limited production at our Pinehurst facilities, we may again have to suspend all operations at our Pinehurst facilities, which could be for an extended period of time; customers could scale back or cancel their orders in light of perceived or real production constraints; even if the flooding in Thailand subsides, the extent of damage to Thai roads, infrastructure and general public safety and health concerns could continue to have a material impact on our logistics, supply chain and employees; if the flooding continues for an extended period of time, the Thai government could order a state of emergency or take other emergency measures, which could constrain our operations in Thailand, and other important factors as described in Fabrinet reports and documents filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including the factors described under the sections captioned "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 10-K, filed on August 31, 2011. 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
The Company refers to the non-GAAP financial measures cited above in making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operational performance. Non-GAAP net income excludes stock-based compensation expenses, executive separation costs and our costs in connection with our follow-on offering earlier this year. We have excluded these items in order to enhance investors' understanding of our ongoing 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 financial and operational decision making. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are used to measure company performance for the purposes of determining employee incentive plan compensation.
