Allegro MicroSystems Reports Third Quarter 2024 Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. (ALGM) reports a 2% year-over-year increase in total sales, driven by an 18% year-over-year growth in automotive sales, with e-Mobility applications contributing significantly. Non-GAAP EPS was $0.32, 10% above guidance, and free cash flow increased by over 170% sequentially. The company expects continued inventory digestion in the short term but remains confident in its ability to grow above market in the mid to long term.

Insights

Market Research Analyst

The reported 2% year-over-year increase in total sales for Allegro MicroSystems is indicative of modest growth, particularly in the context of a global semiconductor industry that has been experiencing robust demand, especially for applications in automotive and industrial sectors. The standout figure is the 18% growth in the Automotive segment, significantly driven by e-Mobility, which aligns with the broader industry trend towards vehicle electrification. However, the sequential decline in net sales from the previous quarter and the projected decrease in fourth-quarter sales raise questions about the sustainability of growth and potential market saturation or cyclicality.

The immaterial error in sales classification in previous reports, while not affecting total net sales or net income, may raise concerns about internal financial controls. This could potentially impact investor confidence, although the correction of such errors reflects transparency and adherence to accurate reporting standards.

Financial Analyst

Allegro's non-GAAP EPS outperformance at $0.32, which is 10% above the midpoint of guidance, suggests efficient operational management and a strong profit conversion ratio. However, the discrepancy between GAAP and non-GAAP figures, particularly in terms of EPS and operating margin, warrants a closer examination of the exclusions made to derive non-GAAP measures. These adjustments often exclude one-time costs or non-cash expenses and can provide a clearer picture of the company's ongoing performance.

Moreover, the substantial increase in free cash flow by more than 170% sequentially signifies a healthier balance sheet and improved liquidity, which could be leveraged for strategic investments or shareholder returns. The forward-looking guidance, with an expected dip in sales but a stable gross margin, suggests that the company is anticipating some market challenges but is confident in maintaining profitability.

Semiconductor Industry Expert

Allegro's focus on e-Mobility is strategically significant, as this sector is a key driver of growth in the semiconductor industry. The reported 45% year-over-year increase in sales to e-Mobility applications is a testament to the company's alignment with the electrification megatrend. However, the overall industrial sales decline could be reflective of macroeconomic factors or a shift in market demand that may require strategic adjustments.

The anticipated inventory digestion across end markets indicates that Allegro is aware of potential short-term oversupply issues or a slowdown in demand. This could impact production and sales volumes in the near term. The company's ability to continue its record level of design wins is crucial for long-term growth and market share expansion, especially in a competitive semiconductor market.

–Total Sales Increased 2% Year-over-Year –
–E-Mobility Drives 18% Year-over-Year Increase in Automotive Sales –

MANCHESTER, N.H., Feb. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. (“Allegro” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:ALGM), a global leader in power and sensing semiconductor solutions for motion control and energy efficient systems, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended December 29, 2023.

“We delivered third-quarter net sales of $255 million, up 2% year-over-year, driven by continued strength in Automotive, which grew 18% year-over-year. Non-GAAP EPS was $0.32, 10% above the midpoint of guidance on in-line sales, and free cash flow increased $27 million, or more than 170% sequentially,” said Vineet Nargolwala, President and CEO of Allegro. "Sales into e-Mobility applications increased by 45% year-over-year to 54% of third-quarter Automotive sales, establishing a new milestone. While we expect continued inventory digestion across end markets in the short-term, our design win momentum continues at record levels and reinforces our confidence in our ability to grow above market in the mid to long term, consistent with our target financial model.”

*During the preparation of the third quarter fiscal year 2024 interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company identified an immaterial error in the classification of net sales by application within the table above, whereby customer returns and sales allowances were incorrectly classified by application between Automotive, Industrial and Other in the prior periods presented above. There was no impact to previously reported total net sales or net income in any of the periods noted above. 

Business Outlook

For the fourth quarter ending March 29, 2024, the Company expects net sales to be in the range of $230 million to $240 million. The Company also estimates the following results on a non-GAAP basis:

• Gross Margin is expected to be between 53% and 54%,
• Operating Expenses are expected to be approximately 31% of sales, and
• Diluted Earnings per Share is expected to be in the range of $0.19 to $0.23.

“Allegro is well positioned to support the megatrends of electrification and automation, and we are taking appropriate actions to navigate near-term impacts from inventory digestion,” said Derek D’Antilio, CFO of Allegro. “We are prudently managing our costs and significantly improving cash flow while continuing to invest strategically for growth.”

Allegro has not provided a reconciliation of its fourth fiscal quarter outlook for non-GAAP Gross Margin, non-GAAP Operating Expenses, and non-GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share because estimates of all of the reconciling items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts. It is difficult to reasonably provide a forward-looking estimate between such forward-looking non-GAAP measures and the comparable forward-looking U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measures. Certain factors that are materially significant to Allegro’s ability to estimate these items are out of its control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we regularly review other measures, defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends, prepare financial forecasts and make strategic decisions. The key measures we consider are non-GAAP Gross Profit, non-GAAP Gross Margin, non-GAAP Operating Expenses, non-GAAP Operating Income, non-GAAP Operating Margin, non-GAAP Profit before Tax, non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, non-GAAP Net Income and non-GAAP Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”). These Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide supplemental information regarding our operating performance on a non-GAAP basis that excludes certain gains, losses and charges of a non-cash nature or that occur relatively infrequently and/or that management considers to be unrelated to our core operations, and in the case of non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, management believes that this non-GAAP measure of income taxes provides it with the ability to evaluate the non-GAAP Provision for Income Taxes across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items and discrete items, which may vary in size and frequency. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are used by both management and our board of directors, together with the comparable GAAP information, in evaluating our current performance and planning our future business activities.

The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are supplemental measures of our performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered as substitutes for GAAP financial measures such as gross profit, gross margin, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Also, in the future we may incur expenses or charges such as those being adjusted in the calculation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Our presentation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures exclude costs related to acquisition and related integration expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, stock-based compensation, restructuring actions, related party activities and other non-operational costs.

Non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax

In calculating non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, we have added back the following to GAAP Income Tax Provision:

• Tax effect of adjustments to GAAP results—Represents the estimated income tax effect of the adjustments to non-GAAP Profit before Tax described below and elimination of discrete tax adjustments.
