Commenting on the results, Dr. Keh-Shew Lu, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “This quarter represented the fourth consecutive quarter of record revenue and our second consecutive quarter of gross margin expansion over 210 basis points, resulting in record gross margin and profits. Underpinning our growth has been the success of our content expansion initiatives, particularly in the automotive market where revenue grew over 65% year-over-year and 7% sequentially, contributing to a 8-year CAGR of 30%. Additionally, our Pericom products continued to set new revenue records, achieving 4 consecutive quarters of growth primarily driven by traction in high-end computing and server applications.

“Our growth in these higher-margin end markets combined with increased loading at our LITE-ON Semiconductor (LSC) facilities have enabled us to increase our top-line revenue and margins, even in the midst of this supply-constrained environment. Diodes is favorably positioned with a global manufacturing footprint that provides the flexibility to strategically expand our capacity and reduce costs, either by adding equipment to existing lines or converting equipment to larger wafers. These ongoing actions are expected to support our continued growth and margin improvement into next year and toward our longer-term target of $1 billion in gross profit by 2025 on $2.5 billion in revenue and 40% gross margin.”

Third Quarter 2021

Revenue for third quarter 2021 was a record $471.4 million, increasing 52 percent from $309.5 million in the third quarter 2020 and 7 percent from $440.4 million in the second quarter 2021.

GAAP gross profit for the third quarter 2021 was a record $181.2 million, or a record 38.4 percent of revenue, increasing from $111.1 million, or 35.9 percent of revenue, in the third quarter of 2020 and $159.8 million, or 36.3 percent of revenue, in the second quarter 2021.

GAAP operating expenses for third quarter 2021 were $104.0 million, or 22.1 percent of revenue, and on a non-GAAP basis were $99.6 million, or 21.1 percent of revenue, which excludes $4.1 million of amortization of acquisition-related intangible asset expenses. GAAP operating expenses in the third quarter 2020 were $73.2 million, or 23.7 percent of revenue and in the second quarter 2021 were $94.4 million, or 21.4 percent of revenue.

Third quarter 2021 GAAP net income was a record $68.4 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income in the third quarter 2020 of $27.2 million, or $0.51 per diluted share and GAAP net income of $55.4 million, or $1.22 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2021.

Third quarter 2021 non-GAAP adjusted net income was a record $67.3 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, which excluded, net of tax, $3.3 million of acquisition-related intangible asset costs, $0.3 million of acquisition-related and restructuring costs, and a $4.7 million gain in value on certain LSC investments. This compares to non-GAAP adjusted net income of $32.8 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, in the third quarter 2020 and $54.6 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2021.

Included in third quarter 2021 GAAP net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income was approximately $8.0 million, net of tax, of non-cash share-based compensation expense. Excluding share-based compensation expense, both GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”) and non-GAAP adjusted EPS would have increased by $0.18 per diluted share for the third quarter 2021, $0.09 for third quarter 2020 and $0.15 for the second quarter 2021.

EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure), which represents earnings before net interest expense, income tax, depreciation and amortization, in third quarter 2021 was a record $114.5 million, or 24.3 percent of revenue, increasing from $63.3 million, or 20.5 percent of revenue, in third quarter 2020 and $99.4 million, or 22.6 percent of revenue, in second quarter 2021. For a reconciliation of GAAP net income to EBITDA, see the table near the end of this release for further details.

For third quarter 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was $98.9 million. Net cash flow was a negative $10.1 million, including the pay down of $49.7 million of total debt. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) was $57.8 million, which includes $41.1 million of capital expenditures.

Balance Sheet

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $292 million in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments. Total debt (including long-term and short-term) amounted to approximately $252 million and working capital was approximately $619 million.

The results announced today are preliminary and unaudited, as they are subject to the Company finalizing its closing procedures and completion of the Company’s 2021 quarterly review by its independent registered public accounting firm. As such, these results are subject to revision until the Company files its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2021.

Business Outlook

Dr. Lu concluded, “For the fourth quarter of 2021, we expect revenue to increase to approximately $476 million, plus or minus 3 percent, which represents a record on both an organic and consolidated basis for a combined increase of about 1 percent sequentially at the mid-point, which is better than typical seasonality of down 5 percent. We expect GAAP gross margin on a consolidated basis to be 38.7 percent, plus or minus 1 percent. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which are GAAP operating expenses adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, are expected to be approximately 21.0 percent of revenue, plus or minus 1 percent. We expect net interest expense to be approximately $1.2 million. Our income tax rate is expected to be 18 percent, plus or minus 3 percent, and shares used to calculate diluted EPS for the fourth quarter are anticipated to be approximately 46.2 million.”

Purchase accounting adjustments related to amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of $3.4 million, after tax, for previous acquisitions is not included in these non-GAAP estimates.

ADJUSTED NET INCOME AND ADJUSTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company’s financial statements present net income and earnings per share that are calculated using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s management makes adjustments to the GAAP measures that it feels are necessary to allow investors and other readers of the Company’s financial releases to view the Company’s operating results as viewed by the Company’s management, board of directors and research analysts in the semiconductor industry. These non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with, and should not be considered alternatives or necessarily superior to, GAAP financial data and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures, even if they have similar names. The explanation of the adjustments made in the table above, are set forth below:

Detail of non-GAAP adjustments

Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assetsThe Company excluded this item, including amortization of developed technologies and customer relationships. The fair value of the acquisition-related intangible assets is amortized using straight-line methods which approximate the proportion of future cash flows estimated to be generated each period over the estimated useful life of the applicable assets. The Company believes that exclusion of this item is appropriate because a significant portion of the purchase price for its acquisitions was allocated to the intangible assets that have short lives and exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both the Company’s newly acquired and long-held businesses. In addition, the Company excluded this item because there is significant variability and unpredictability among companies with respect to this expense.

Acquisition related costs The Company excluded expenses associated with the acquisition of LITE-ON Semiconductor, which consisted of advisory, legal and other professional and consulting fees. These costs were expensed as they were incurred and as services were received, and in which the corresponding tax adjustments were made for the non-deductible portions of these expenses. The Company believes the exclusion of the acquisition related costs provides investors with a more accurate reflection of costs likely to be incurred in the absence of an unusual event such as an acquisition and facilitates comparisons with the results of other periods that may not reflect such costs.

Gain on LSC investments – LSC recorded a market to market gain on an equity investment. The Company believes this gain is not reflective of the ongoing operations and exclusion of this gain provides investors an enhanced view of the Company’s operating results.

Restructuring costs – The Company has recorded restructuring charges related to the shutdown and relocation of one of our assembly and test facilities located in Chengdu, China, restructuring at other China sites, and restructuring of select European entities. These restructuring charges are excluded from management’s assessment of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes the exclusion of the restructuring charges provides investors an enhanced view of the cost structure of the Company’s operations and facilitates comparisons with the results of other periods that may not reflect such charges or may reflect different levels of such charges.

Board member retirement costs – The Company excluded expenses in connection with the retirement of a member of the Company’s board of directors. The Company modified that director’s unvested RSU grants to vest upon his retirement. The shares subject to the modified grants will be released that board member as if they were vesting under the original vesting timeline.

Free cash flow (FCF) (Non-GAAP)

FCF for the third quarter of 2021 is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash flow from operations. For the third quarter of 2021, FCF was $57.8 million, which represents the cash and cash equivalents that we are able to generate after taking into account cash outlays required to maintain or expand property, plant and equipment. FCF is important because it allows us to pursue opportunities to develop new products, make acquisitions and reduce debt.

CONSOLIDATED RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME TO EBITDA

EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization. Management believes EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, such as financial institutions in extending credit, in evaluating companies in our industry and provides further clarity on our profitability. In addition, management uses EBITDA, along with other GAAP and non-GAAP measures, in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry. The calculation of EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financing, operating in different income tax jurisdictions, and accounting effects of capital spending, including the impact of our asset base, which can differ depending on the book value of assets and the accounting methods used to compute depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP, and when analyzing our operating performance, investors should use EBITDA in addition to, and not as an alternative for, income from operations and net income, each as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. For example, our EBITDA takes into account all net interest expense, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization without taking into account any amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest. Furthermore, EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments.
