Cirrus Logic Reports Q3 FY19 Revenue of $324.3 Million

Jan 30, 2019

Company Announces $200 Million Share Repurchase Program

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Cirrus Logic, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRUS),a leader in high-performance, low-power ICs for audio and voice signal processing applications, today posted on its website at http://investor.cirrus.com the quarterly Shareholder Letter that contains the complete financial results for the third quarter fiscal year 2019, which ended Dec. 29, 2018, as well as the company’s current business outlook.

“Cirrus Logic reported revenue for the third quarter in line with our revised expectations as we experienced the effects of the turbulent macroeconomic environment and reduced demand for smartphones,” said Jason Rhode, president and chief executive officer. “Despite these challenges, we are encouraged to see continued broad-based interest for low-latency, low-power signal processing across a wide range of product categories. We are making considerable investments in technologies addressing audio, voice and other adjacent applications that we believe will fuel growth opportunities in the coming years.”

Reported Financial Results – Third Quarter FY19

  • Revenue of $324.3 million;
  • GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of 50.3 percent and 50.4 percent, respectively;
  • GAAP operating expenses of $118.9 million and non-GAAP operating expenses of $100.3 million; and
  • GAAP earnings per share of $0.49 and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.91.

A reconciliation of the non-GAAP charges is included in the tables accompanying this press release.

Business Outlook – Fourth Quarter FY19

  • Revenue is expected to range between $200 million and $240 million;
  • GAAP gross margin is expected to be between 49 percent and 51 percent; and
  • Combined GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses are expected to range between $119 million and $125 million, which includes approximately $12 million in share-based compensation and $7 million in amortization of acquired intangibles.

Share Repurchase Authorization

The company also announced that its Board of Directors recently authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $200 million of the company's common stock, in addition to the $50 million remaining from the Board’s previous share repurchase authorization in January 2018. The repurchases will be funded from working capital and anticipated cash from operations and may occur from time to time depending on a variety of factors, including general market and economic conditions and other corporate considerations. The share repurchase program is designed to comply with all applicable securities laws and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
