Michael Plisinski, chief executive officer for Onto Innovation commented, “The Onto Innovation team continues to perform very well, simultaneously improving our operational efficiencies while managing strong customer demand for our solutions across the semiconductor value chain. Underscoring that point, the midpoint of third quarter guidance reflects our strengthened outlook for growth of 54% over the same period in 2020. We see revenue growth continuing into the fourth quarter and extending into the first quarter of 2022, driven by expansions and node transitions in logic and memory as well as the rapidly growing investments in packaging and RF process technology.”

“We are also pleased with the progress made to bring our new solutions into new markets further expanding our growth opportunities,” Plisinski continued. “We estimate the new customers being added for planar films, inspection of image sensors, and the increasingly critical ramp of panel level packaging adds over $350 million to our served markets as we look ahead to 2022. These market expansions are the result of our technical strength and close collaboration with our customers that ensure we deliver the solutions critical to their roadmaps.”

Second Quarter 2021 GAAP Financial Results

  • Second quarter revenue totaled $193.4 million, an increase of 14% compared with $169.3 million for the first quarter of 2021.
  • Gross profit margin was 55% of revenue in the second quarter, compared to 53% in the first quarter of 2021. Second quarter gross margin was positively impacted by the increase in revenue as well as product mix.
  • Operating expenses totaled $69.5 million, an increase of $6.5 million compared to $63.0 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily the result of increases in variable compensation plan costs due to the Company’s forecast to exceed plan targets.
  • Operating income was $35.9 million, an increase of $8.4 million compared to $27.5 million in the first quarter of 2021.
  • GAAP net income was $35.1 million, or $0.71 per diluted share and above the high end of guidance, compared with $24.1 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the 2021 first quarter.

Second Quarter 2021 Non-GAAP Financial Results

  • Gross profit margin was 55% of revenue for the second quarter of 2021 compared to 54% for the first quarter of 2021 and 53% for the second quarter of 2020.
  • Operating income was $49.7 million, an increase of $7.8 million and represented 26% of revenue in the second quarter of 2021. This compares to operating income of $41.9 million in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Non-GAAP net income was $45.9 million, or $0.92 per diluted share compared to non-GAAP net income of $36.3 million, or $0.73 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Non-GAAP results exclude merger-related expenses, restructuring costs, litigation expenses and the amortization of intangible assets as detailed in the accompanying tables.

Balance Sheet

  • As of June 26, 2021, cash and marketable securities increased to $410.8 million, an increase of $17.9 million over the prior quarter.
  • Working capital increased $50.0 million from the 2021 first quarter and ended the quarter at $678.5 million.
  • Accounts receivable increased to $174.7 million in the quarter mainly due to the increase in revenue and timing of shipments in the quarter. In addition, inventory increased to $207.0 million by quarter end.

Outlook

The Company is currently anticipating revenue for the third quarter of 2021 to be in the range of $190 million to $200 million. This guidance assumes that the safety protocols in place continue to limit the impact of COVID-19 on our factories and our suppliers. Within this revenue range the Company is expecting GAAP net income per diluted share to be in the range of $0.62 to $0.76 and non-GAAP net income per diluted share to be in the range of $0.85 to $0.99.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has provided in this release non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS, which exclude amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, certain acquisition-related expenses and benefits, litigation expenses and restructuring costs. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS can also exclude certain other gains and losses that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, tax provisions/benefits related to the previous items, and significant discrete tax events. We exclude the above items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.

We utilize several different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of our business, in making operating decisions, forecasting and planning for future periods, and determining payments under compensation programs. We consider the use of the non-GAAP measures to be helpful in assessing the performance of the ongoing operation of our business. We believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, allows for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operational performance. We also believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. More specifically, management adjusts for the excluded items for the following reasons:

Amortization of purchased intangible assets: we do not acquire businesses and assets on a predictable cycle. The amount of purchase price allocated to the purchased intangible assets and the term of amortization can vary significantly and are unique to each acquisition or purchase. We believe that excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets allows the users of our financial statements to better review and understand the historic and current results of our operations, and also facilitates comparisons to peer companies.

Merger or acquisition related expenses and benefits: we incur expenses or benefits with respect to certain items associated with our mergers and acquisitions, such as transaction and integration costs, change in control payments, adjustments to the fair value of assets, etc. We exclude such expenses or benefits as they are related to acquisitions and have no direct correlation to the operation of our on-going business.

Restructuring charges: we incur restructuring and impairment charges on individual or groups of employed assets, which arise from unforeseen circumstances and/or often occur outside of the ordinary course of our on-going business. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financials, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods.

Significant litigation charges or benefits and legal costs: we may incur charges or benefits as well as legal costs in connection with litigation and other contingencies unrelated to our core operations. We exclude these charges or benefits, when significant, as well as legal costs associated with significant legal matters, because we do not believe they are reflective of on-going business and operating results.

Income tax expense: we estimate the tax effect of the items identified to determine a non-GAAP annual effective tax rate applied to the pretax amount in order to calculate the non-GAAP provision for income taxes. We also adjust for items for which the nature and/or tax jurisdiction requires the application of a specific tax rate or treatment.

From time to time in the future, there may be other items excluded if we believe that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.

There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP in the United States. Investors should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
