Strong year-over-year Growth Driven by both Cloud and Telecom

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inphi Corporation (NASDAQ: IPHI), a leader in high-speed data movement interconnects, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2020. Inphi Corporation will not host a conference call to discuss its results for the third quarter of 2020 due to the proposed acquisition of Inphi Corporation by Marvell Technology Group Ltd. announced today.

GAAP Results

Revenue in the third quarter of 2020 was a record $180.7 million on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, up 91.8% year-over-year, compared with $94.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was due to higher demand for Cloud and Telecommunications products as well as the inclusion of eSilicon revenues as a result of the acquisition that closed on January 10, 2020.

Gross margin under GAAP in the third quarter of 2020 was 56.2%, compared with 57.8% in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was mainly due to amortization of intangibles related to the eSilicon acquisition and product and revenue mix.

GAAP operating income in the third quarter of 2020 was $6.2 million or 3.5% of revenue, compared to GAAP operating loss in the third quarter of 2019 of $10.9 million or (11.6%) of revenue. The decrease in operating loss was mainly due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses and interest expense.

GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2020 was $3.4 million or ($0.07) per diluted common share, compared with $16.2 million or ($0.36) per diluted common share in the third quarter of 2019.

Inphi reports gross profit, operating expenses, operating income (loss), net income (loss), and earnings per share in accordance with GAAP and on a non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP gross profit, operating expenses, operating income (loss), net income (loss), earnings per share, as well as a description of the items excluded from the non-GAAP calculations is included in the financial statements portion of this press release.

Non-GAAP Results

Gross margin on a non-GAAP basis in the third quarter of 2020 was 64.2%, compared with 70.2% in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was due to product mix, mainly from the sale of eSilicon products that have a lower margin.

Non-GAAP operating income in the third quarter of 2020 was $53.3 million or 29.5% of revenue, compared with non-GAAP operating income of $21.4 million or 22.7% of revenue in the third quarter of 2019. The increase is primarily due to higher gross profit and higher operating leverage.

Non-GAAP net income in the third quarter of 2020 was $47.9 million, or $0.88 per diluted common share. This compares with non-GAAP net income of $21.5 million, or $0.45 per diluted common share in the third quarter of 2019.

“Despite unique macro challenges, Q3 of 2020 was another record revenue quarter for the Company. Our revenue grew 92% year-over-year for the quarter driven by strength in both our cloud data center and telecom markets. The organic portions of our business also grew an impressive 57% year-over- year for the third quarter,” said Ford Tamer, President and CEO of Inphi Corporation. “Our diversified product roadmap coupled with leading edge research development investments drove strong non-GAAP operating margin of 29.5% for the third quarter, further demonstrating leverage in our operating model.”

Revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $495.4 million, compared with $262.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. GAAP net loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $47.7 million, or ($0.97) per diluted share, on approximately 49.0 million diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.
