SANTA CLARA, Calif. — BUSINESS WIRE — May 2, 2005
Order Backlog Grows to $66 Million on Record Bookings for Disk Manufacturing Equipment
Intevac, Inc. (Nasdaq:IVAC) reported financial results for the three-month period ended April 2, 2005.
Revenues were $10.6 million, including $8.5 million of Equipment revenues and $2.1 million of Imaging revenues. Equipment revenues consisted of one 200 Lean system and equipment upgrades, spares, consumables and service. Imaging revenues consisted primarily of research and development contracts. In the first quarter of 2004, revenues were $6.4 million, including $4.1 million of Equipment revenues and $2.3 million of Imaging revenues. Gross margin was 19% versus 25% for first-quarter of 2004. The decline was primarily due to establishment of a $510,000 reserve for costs the Company expects to incur related to obtaining final customer acceptance of a flat panel manufacturing system shipped in 2003 and recognition of revenue on a 200 Lean disk manufacturing system that was built early in 2004 prior to the completion of cost reduction activities. Operating expenses were $6.3 million, compared to $5.2 million in first-quarter 2004. The primary reasons for the growth were increased costs related to customer service and support in the equipment business and Sarbanes-Oxley related audit costs. Net loss for the quarter was $3.9 million or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2004. Order backlog totaled $66.0 million on April 2, 2005, compared to $10.5 million on December 31, 2004, and $52.0 million on March 27, 2004. The increase in backlog was primarily the result of orders for 16 disk manufacturing systems. Intevac Chief Executive Kevin Fairbairn commented: "Q1 was an exciting quarter in which we achieved record bookings for disk manufacturing equipment, gained additional major customers for the 200 Lean, and made excellent progress on our next-generation head-mounted night-vision system. As a result of record bookings, order backlog increased to $66 million, all of which is scheduled for 2005 delivery and positions us for significant growth in revenues, compared to 2004. "Just as important, our materials cost reduction activities are on track, and we expect the combination of higher volume and higher gross margins to significantly improve financial performance relative to 2004 and lead to significant profits in 2005," Fairbairn added. "We continue to be busy with quotation activity and expect to receive additional orders for 200 Leans for delivery this year."
