PCTEL Reports $23.5 Million in Second Quarter Revenue

August 08, 2019

BLOOMINGDALE, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 8, 2019-- PCTEL, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCTI) announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.

Highlights

  • Revenue of $23.5 million in the quarter, 9% higher compared to the prior year. The second quarter revenue was higher by 82% for the test and measurement product line and lower by 8% for the antenna product line compared to the second quarter 2018.
  • Gross profit margin of 45.5% in the quarter, up 9.4% compared to gross profit margin in the prior year. The increase in the second quarter is a result of higher revenues for test and measurement products and improved profitability for antenna products.
  • GAAP net income per share of $0.05 in the quarter compared to a GAAP loss of $0.07 per share in the second quarter last year.
  • Non-GAAP net income and adjusted EBITDA are measures the Company uses to reflect the results of its core earnings. A reconciliation of those non-GAAP measures to our GAAP financial statements is provided later in the press release.
    • Non-GAAP net income per share of $0.13 in the quarter compared to a break-even in the second quarter last year.
    • Adjusted EBITDA margin as a percent of revenue of 13% in the quarter compared to 2% in the second quarter last year.
  • $36.8 million of cash and short-term investments at June 30, 2019 and no debt.
  • The Company will incur restructuring expense in the second half of fiscal year 2019 related to the transition plan for China manufacturing.

“We are pleased with the sequential revenue and gross margin growth driven by 5G scanning receiver demand and significant Industrial IoT antenna project wins and facilitated by the cost reduction and realignment actions we took over the past year,” said David Neumann, PCTEL’s CEO. “We are in the early stages of 5G and the deployment of Industrial IoT systems. PCTEL has the capabilities and resources to grow with these markets and increase value for all stakeholders.”

This schedule reconciles the Company's GAAP operating income (loss) to its non-GAAP operating income (loss). The Company believes that presentation of this schedule provides meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that is indicative of the Company's core operating results and facilitates comparison of operating results across reporting periods. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial results as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company's GAAP results.
 
 
 
The adjustments to GAAP operating income (loss) (a) consist of stock compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets. The adjustments to GAAP net income (loss) include the non-GAAP adjustments to operating income (loss) as well as adjustments for (b) non-cash income tax expense.
