Ichor Holdings, Ltd. Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2018 Financial Results
- 64
Ichor Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: ICHR), a leader in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of critical fluid delivery subsystems for semiconductor capital equipment, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2018.
Highlights for the fourth quarter of 2018:
- Revenues of $141 million;
- Generated $31 million of free cash flow;
- Gross margin of 15.2% on a GAAP basis and 15.3% on a non-GAAP basis;
- Net earnings of $0.15 per diluted share on a GAAP basis and $0.32 on a non-GAAP basis;
- Completed $30 million of share repurchases in the fourth quarter.
Highlights for fiscal year 2018:
- Record revenue of $824 million;
- Gross margin of 16.5% on a GAAP basis and 17.2% on a non-GAAP basis;
- Net earnings of $2.30 per diluted share on a GAAP basis and $2.99 on a non-GAAP basis;
- Completed $90 million of share repurchases against our $100 million total authorization established in February 2018.
“2018 was Ichor’s strongest year on record, with 26% revenue growth year-over-year, along with increasing gross margin, operating margin, and earnings per share, compared to 2017,” commented Chairman and CEO Tom Rohrs. “Along with the rest of the industry, we experienced a significant slowdown in business in the second half of the year, and conditions in the fourth quarter were more challenging than forecast. In spite of the second-half decline in industry spending, we delivered revenue growth for the year that well-outpaced the overall growth in the wafer fabrication equipment industry, primarily due to the contribution from strategic acquisitions, as well as strong execution in our core gas panel business. We demonstrated the strength of our variable manufacturing cost structure by generating record profits and free cash flows for the year. As we continue to navigate through this challenging business environment, we expect to continue delivering solid profitability while we execute on our strategy to expand our market share within our served markets through continued design wins and close collaboration with our customers.”

U.S. GAAP Financial Results Overview
For the fourth quarter of 2018, revenue was $141.4 million, net income from continuing operations was $3.5 million, and net income from continuing operations per diluted share (“diluted EPS”) was $0.15. This compares to revenue of $175.2 million and $182.9 million, net income from continuing operations of $9.6 million and $19.2 million, and diluted EPS of $0.39 and $0.72, for the third quarter of 2018 and fourth quarter of 2017, respectively.
For fiscal year 2018, revenue was $823.6 million, net income from continuing operations was $57.9 million, and diluted EPS was $2.30. This compares to revenue of $655.9 million, net income from continuing operations of $56.9 million, and diluted EPS of $2.17 for fiscal year 2017.
Non-GAAP Financial Results Overview
For the fourth quarter of 2018, non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations was $7.3 million and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS was $0.32. This compares to non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations of $13.6 million and $18.6 million, and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS of $0.55 and $0.70, for the third quarter of 2018 and fourth quarter of 2017, respectively.
For fiscal year 2018, non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations was $75.1 million and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS was $2.99. This compares to non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations of $65.1 million and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS of $2.48 for fiscal year 2017.
First Quarter 2019 Financial Outlook
For the first quarter of 2019, we expect revenue to be in the range of $131 to $141 million. We expect GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.10 and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.23 to $0.31.
This outlook for non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS excludes known charges related to amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, tax adjustments related to these non-GAAP adjustments, and non-recurring charges known at the time of providing this outlook. This outlook for non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS excludes any items that are unknown at this time, such as non-recurring tax-related items or other unusual items which we are not able to predict without unreasonable efforts due to their inherent uncertainty.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Results
We ended the fourth quarter of 2018 with cash of $43.8 million. The quarterly net increase of $10.8 million from the third quarter of 2018 was primarily due to cash from operations of $33.1 million and net borrowing on long-term debt of $9.8 million, partially offset by share repurchases of $29.7 million and capital expenditures of $2.5 million.
The net decrease in cash of $25.5 million during the fiscal year 2018 from December 29, 2017 was primarily due to cash flow from operations of $60.5 million, net borrowings on long-term debt of $15.3 million, and proceeds from the issuance of ordinary shares under our share-based compensation plans of $6.2 million, offset by share repurchases of $90.0 million, capital expenditures of $13.9 million, debt modification costs from the refinancing of our credit facilities in February 2018 of $2.1 million, and net cash paid in connection with acquisitions of $1.4 million.
Our cash from operations during fiscal year 2018 of $60.5 million was due to net income of $57.9 million and net non-cash charges of $24.9 million, partially offset by an increase in our net operating assets and liabilities of $22.3 million, net of acquired assets and liabilities. Non-cash charges primarily consist of depreciation and amortization of $23.1 million and share-based compensation of $7.6 million, partially offset by deferred income taxes of $6.7 million. The increase in our net operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities of $62.2 million and $5.0 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in inventories and accounts receivable of $35.1 million and $10.4 million, respectively.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results
In addition to U.S. GAAP results, this press release also contains non-GAAP financial results, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations, and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS. These non-GAAP metrics exclude amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, non-recurring expenses including adjustments to the cost of goods sold, tax adjustments related to those non-GAAP adjustments, and non-recurring discrete tax items including tax impacts from releasing a valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits, to the extent they are present in gross profit, operating income, and net income from continuing operations. A table showing these metrics on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, with reconciliation footnotes thereto, is included at the end of this press release. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS is defined as non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations divided by weighted average diluted ordinary shares outstanding during the period.
Management uses non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations, and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS to evaluate our operating and financial results. We believe the presentation of non-GAAP results is useful to investors for analyzing business trends and comparing performance to prior periods, along with enhancing investors’ ability to view our results from management’s perspective. A table presenting the reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted net income from continuing operations to U.S. GAAP net income from continuing operations is also included at the end of this press release.

(3) | We recorded $2.3 million in tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2017 and $5.3 million in the third quarter of 2017 in connection with our acquisitions of Talon and Cal-Weld, respectively. | |
(4) | In the third quarter of 2017 we re-characterized intercompany debt to equity between our U.S. and Singapore entities resulting in a tax benefit of $1.6 million related to the reversal of previously accrued withholding taxes. | |
(5) | This adjustment represents the impact of U.S. corporate tax reform. | |
(6) | Represents the release of a valuation allowance against our foreign tax credit carryforwards we now expect to realize as a result of additional analysis of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. | |
(7) | During the second quarter of 2017, we corrected an error relating to translated inventory balances at our Malaysia and Singapore subsidiaries using an incorrect foreign currency rate. The error arose in prior period financial statements beginning in periods prior to 2014 and through 2016. The correction resulted in a $1.75 million increase in cost of sales and a corresponding decrease in gross profit in our consolidated statement of operations and a decrease to inventories in our consolidated balance sheet during the second quarter of 2017. | |
(8) | As part of our purchase price allocations for our acquisitions of Cal-Weld in July 2017 and Talon in December 2017 and our preliminary purchase price allocation for our acquisition of IAN in April 2018, we recorded acquired-inventory at fair value, resulting in a fair value step-up of $3.6 million, $6.2 million, and $0.3 million, respectively. These amounts were subsequently released to cost of sales as acquired-inventory was sold. | |
(9) | During the third quarter of 2017, we received a final arbitration ruling on our working capital claim with the sellers of Ajax. The ruling was outside the one year measurement period and therefore could not be considered an adjustment to goodwill, resulting in a charge to selling, general, and administrative expense. | |
