FormFactor, Inc. Reports 2024 Second Quarter Results
来源: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 31 7月 2024 16:01:00 America/New_York
Q2 Revenue and Profitability Exceed the Midpoint of the Outlook Range;
Sees Steady Overall Demand in the Third QuarterLIVERMORE, Calif., July 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FormFactor, Inc. (Nasdaq: FORM) today announced its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 ended June 29, 2024. Quarterly revenues were $197.5 million, an increase of 17.0% compared to $168.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, and an increase of 26.7% from $155.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023.
- Probe Card segment strength, which was expected, drove second-quarter results, with sequential increases in Foundry & Logic, DRAM and Flash markets.
- DRAM probe card revenue reached an all-time record; revenue from High Bandwidth Memory (“HBM”) doubled for the third consecutive quarter.
- Revenue growth reflects exposure to expanding areas, like advanced packaging which is increasing test intensity and complexity, enabling FormFactor to grow despite the delayed refresh cycle in important high-unit-volume end-markets like PC and mobile.
“FormFactor set an all-time record for DRAM probe-card revenue in the second quarter, driven by sequential doubling of high-bandwidth-memory revenue and steady DDR5 new-design activity,” said Mike Slessor, CEO of FormFactor, Inc. “The demand for HBM probe cards is the direct result of large hyperscalers’ investments in generative-AI infrastructure, and our customers’ corresponding ramps of HBM semiconductor capacity and output.”
Second Quarter and Fiscal 2024 Highlights
On a GAAP basis, net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $19.4 million, or $0.25 per fully-diluted share, compared to net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 of $21.8 million, or $0.28 per fully-diluted share, and net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 of $0.8 million, or $0.01 per fully-diluted share. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2024 was 44.0%, compared with 37.2% in the first quarter of 2024, and 38.7% in the second quarter of 2023.
On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $27.3 million, or $0.35 per fully-diluted share, compared to net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 of $14.3 million, or $0.18 per fully-diluted share, and net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 of $11.2 million, or $0.14 per fully-diluted share. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin for the second quarter of 2024 was 45.3%, compared with 38.7% in the first quarter of 2024, and 40.6% in the second quarter of 2023.
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures is provided in the schedules included below.
GAAP net cash provided by operating activities for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $21.9 million, compared to $33.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, and $22.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. Free cash flow for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $14.2 million, compared to free cash flow for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 of $19.7 million, and free cash flow for the second quarter of 2023 of $2.1 million. A reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to non-GAAP free cash flow is provided in the schedules included below.
Outlook
Dr. Slessor added, “In the third quarter, we expect overall demand to continue at levels similar to those achieved in the second quarter, although we expect a less-favorable DRAM product mix, with heavier weighting towards DDR5 probe cards.”
For the third quarter ending September 28, 2024, FormFactor is providing the following outlook*:

We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per basic and diluted share, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income and free cash flow provides supplemental information that is important to understanding financial and business trends and other factors relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per basic and diluted share, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, and non-GAAP operating income are among the primary indicators used by management as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods, and by management and our board of directors to determine whether our operating performance has met certain targets and thresholds. Management uses non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per basic and diluted share, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, and non-GAAP operating income when evaluating operating performance because it believes that the exclusion of the items indicated herein, for which the amounts or timing may vary significantly depending upon our activities and other factors, facilitates comparability of our operating performance from period to period. We use free cash flow to conduct and evaluate our business as an additional way of viewing our liquidity that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our cash flows. Many investors also prefer to track free cash flow, as opposed to only GAAP earnings. Free cash flow has limitations due to the fact that it does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures, and therefore it is important to view free cash flow as a complement to our entire consolidated statements of cash flows. We have chosen to provide this non-GAAP information to investors so they can analyze our operating results closer to the way that management does, and use this information in their assessment of our business and the valuation of our Company. We compute non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per basic and diluted share, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, and non-GAAP operating income, by adjusting GAAP net income, GAAP net income per basic and diluted share, GAAP gross profit, GAAP gross margin, GAAP operating expenses, and GAAP operating income (loss) to remove the impact of certain items and the tax effect, if applicable, of those adjustments. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP, and may be materially different from other non-GAAP measures, including similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, net income, net income per basic and diluted share, gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, or operating income (loss) in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. We may expect to continue to incur expenses of a nature similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of these items from our non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per basic and diluted share, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, and non-GAAP operating income should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. For more information on the non-GAAP adjustments, please see the table captioned “Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations” and “Reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities to non-GAAP Free Cash Flow” included in this press release.
