Cirrus Logic Reports Fiscal Q1 2008 Financial Results
AUSTIN, Texas--Cirrus Logic Inc. , a leader in high-precision analog and digital signal processing components, today announced financial results for the first quarter fiscal year 2008, which ended June 30, 2007.
The company reported first quarter fiscal year 2008 revenue of $41.1 million, compared with $45.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. First quarter gross margin was 59.2 percent compared to 60.1 percent for the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. Combined research and development (R&D) and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the quarter were $23.9 million. R&D and SG&A expenses included $1.5 million in stock-based compensation expense, as well as $0.5 million in expenses associated with the company’s recently concluded stock-option review.
Total cash and marketable securities at the end of the first fiscal quarter was $277.6 million, compared with $271.7 million at the end of the prior fiscal quarter, an increase of $5.9 million.
“While June quarter revenue reflects weak demand for older products, I am pleased to see a stronger mix of new customers and new products reflected in our backlog for the September quarter, particularly in portable audio and automotive products,” said Jason Rhode, Cirrus Logic president and chief executive officer.
Outlook for Second Quarter FY 2008 (ending September 29, 2007), including the recently completed Apex Microtechnology acquisition:
- Revenue is expected to range between $46 million and $51 million;
- Gross margin is expected to be between 58 percent and 60 percent; and
- Combined GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses are expected to range between $25 million and $27 million, including share-based compensation expense of approximately $1.6 million.
