SAN DIEGO, Feb. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cymer, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYMI), the world's leading supplier of light sources used by chipmakers to manufacture advanced semiconductor devices, today announced operating results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2011.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20090406/LA94420LOGO)
For the fourth quarter of 2011:
-- net income totaled $12.5 million, equal to $0.40 per share (diluted),
compared to net income of $32.9 million, equal to $1.08 per share
(diluted) in the fourth quarter of 2010 and net income of $11.3 million,
equal to $0.36 per share (diluted), in the third quarter of 2011.
-- revenue totaled $152.9 million compared to revenue of $146.9 million in
the fourth quarter of 2010, and revenue of $128.7 million in the third
quarter of 2011.
For the year ended December 31, 2011:
-- net income totaled $80.2 million equal to $2.58 per share (diluted),
compared to net income of $91.0 million, equal to $3.02 per share
(diluted) for the year ended December 31, 2010.
-- revenue totaled $594.2 million compared to revenue of $534.2 million in
the prior year.
Commenting on results, Bob Akins, Cymer's chief executive officer, said, "In 2011 we achieved record company revenue and delivered targeted margins while significantly increasing our investment in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) source technology. In the fourth quarter, deep ultraviolet (DUV) pulses at chipmakers remained high. We also began delivering product enhancements increasing customer realized value for OnPulse covered light sources. DUV light source shipments increased from third quarter levels and we were pleased to have received customer acceptance on three of the six 3100 EUV sources we have shipped to date. During the fourth quarter we also completed installation of our first TCZ Gen 5 system at a leading display manufacturer."
In the fourth quarter of 2011, the company shipped 32 light sources, of which 18 were KrF and 14 were ArF immersion, and the company installed 33 DUV light sources at chipmaker locations. Gross profit was $76.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, yielding a 50 percent gross margin. Total operating expenses, which include research and development and selling and administrative expenses, were $54.8 million. Total operating income was $21.6 million or 14.1 percent of revenue. The 2011 effective tax rate was 26 percent, resulting in a fourth quarter effective tax rate of 42 percent. This rate was higher than originally planned due to lower than anticipated annual R&D tax credits and higher than forecasted fourth quarter pre-tax income.
DUV and Installed Base Products (IBP) bookings for the fourth quarter of 2011 totaled $125 million, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of 0.96. Forty-two percent of the DUV bookings were ArF immersion and 58 percent were KrF. The company ended the quarter with a DUV backlog of approximately $48 million.
For the full year 2011, the company shipped 154 DUV light sources, of which 88 were ArF immersion, 61 were KrF, and 5 were ArF dry. The company reported gross profit of $305.1 million for the full year 2011, yielding a 51.4 percent gross margin. Total operating expenses for the year of $197.6 million includes research and development, selling and administrative expenses. Total operating income was $107.6 million or 18.1 percent of revenue.
As of December 31, 2011, cash and investments totaled approximately $324 million, an increase of approximately $107 million from December 31, 2010.
Company Outlook
Commenting on the outlook for the first quarter of 2012, Akins stated, "We expect Installed Base Products revenue to remain at or above the prior quarter level led by installed base growth, increased ArF pulses and light source product enhancements. We anticipate shipping a similar number of DUV ArF Immersion light sources, as compared to last quarter, but a lower number of KrF. We also anticipate recognizing revenue on our fourth 3100 EUV source and our third TCZ system. We will continue to invest in EUV development resources, manufacturing capacity, and field support. We view 2012 as a pivotal year for advancing power and performance for 3100 fielded sources and 3300 source demand."
Based on information available at this time, Cymer is providing the following guidance for the first quarter of 2012:
-- Revenue to be approximately $138 million.
-- Gross margin to be approximately 48 to 49 percent.
-- R&D expenses to be approximately $39 to $41 million dollars.
-- SG&A expenses to be approximately $16.5 million.
-- The effective tax rate to be approximately 32 percent.
Cymer's management will hold a conference call at 2:00 pm (PDT) today, February 2, 2012, to discuss fourth quarter and 2011 operating results and first quarter 2012 guidance.
