Xcerra Announces Second Quarter Results
Second Quarter Notables:

NORWOOD, Mass., Feb. 21, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xcerra Corporation (NASDAQ:XCRA), today announced financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2017.
Net sales for the quarter were $80,124,000, compared to the prior quarter’s net sales of $80,085,000. GAAP net income for the quarter was $2,572,000, or $0.05 per diluted share. Excluding restructuring totaling $299,000 and amortization of purchased intangible assets of $180,000, non-GAAP net income for the quarter was $3,051,000, or $0.06 per diluted share.
Dave Tacelli, president and chief executive officer, commented, “We had a solid Q2, with revenue at the higher end of our guidance but more importantly earnings above our business model. Early in January we started to see positive business trends developing and those have accelerated into our third fiscal quarter. This includes strength in both our Semi Test Solutions (STS), as well as our Electronics Manufacturing Solutions (EMS) business segments. Demand for our STS products is especially high as we plan to ship a record number of Diamondx systems during the quarter. This is partly due to the share gains from the strong adoption by multiple customers of our flat panel display driver test solution. We are also experiencing increasing demand for our tri temp MT2168 XT P&P handler from a variety of new customers. While visibility is typically limited to one quarter, we have a high degree of confidence the positive business trends we are currently seeing will continue beyond our third fiscal quarter.”
Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 Outlook
For the fiscal quarter ending April 30, 2017, net sales are expected to be in the range of $95 million to $99 million. Non-GAAP net income for the quarter is expected to be in the range of $0.10 to $0.14 per share, assuming 54.7 million shares outstanding. The non-GAAP net income guidance excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets of approximately $0.2 million.

Information About Non-GAAP Measures

Non-GAAP net income for the quarter ended January 31, 2017 excludes the amortization of purchased intangible assets and restructuring charges. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful for internal comparison to historical operating results as well as to the operating results of its competitors, and believes that this information is useful to investors for the same purposes. A reconciliation between the Company’s GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided in the attached tables. Readers are reminded that non-GAAP information is merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, GAAP financial measures.
