Endwave Corporation (Nasdaq: ENWV), a leading provider of
high-frequency RF solutions for mobile communications networks,
today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full
fiscal year which ended on December 31, 2009.
On April 30, 2009, Endwave sold its defense electronics and
security (D&S) business for $28 million in cash. As a result,
the company’s financial statements reflect the D&S business as
a discontinued operation.
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $3.6 million. This
compares with revenues from these same operations of $3.1 million
in the prior quarter and $5.3 million in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2008. Loss from continuing operations, calculated in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States (GAAP), for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $3.4
million, or $0.36 per share. Loss from continuing operations for
the fourth quarter included an $878,000 write-down of inventory
related to a key customers’ legacy product line. This compares with
a loss from continuing operations of $2.6 million, or $0.27 per
share, in the prior quarter, and a loss from continuing operations
of $3.6 million or $0.39 per share in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2008.
Non-GAAP Results from Continuing Operations
Non-GAAP net loss in the fourth quarter of 2009 was $2.0
million, or $0.21 per share. This compares with non-GAAP net loss
of $1.7 million, or $0.18 per share in the prior quarter and
non-GAAP net loss of $2.3 million, or $0.24 per share in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2008.
For the fourth quarter of 2009, non-GAAP net loss was calculated
by excluding certain restructuring charges of $1.2 million,
inventory reserves and bad debt expense due to a customer
liquidation of $191,000 and non-cash stock-based compensation
expense of $32,000. For the third quarter of 2009, non-GAAP net
loss was calculated by excluding non-cash stock-based compensation
expense of $939,000, income from discontinued operations, net of
tax of $41,000 and the reversal of certain restructuring charges
that resulted in a gain of $21,000. For the fourth quarter of 2008,
non-GAAP net loss was calculated by excluding loss from
discontinued operations of $7.5 million, non-cash stock-based
compensation expense of $734,000, and inventory reserves and bad
debt expense due to a customer reorganization of $573,000.
Cash, cash equivalents and investments as of December 31, 2009
were $66.5 million, compared with $68.2 million as of September 30,
2009. On January 21, 2010, the Company repurchased all 300,000
shares of Endwave preferred stock from Oak Investment Partners XI,
Limited Partnership (Oak Investments) for $36.0 million in cash.
Including deal related fees and expenses the total cost of the
repurchase was $36.2 million and the repurchase resulted in a
corresponding decrease to cash, cash equivalents and
investments.
Full Year 2009 Results
For the full year, revenues from continuing operations were
$19.5 million, compared with $38.7 million for 2008.
GAAP net loss from continuing operations for the year ended
December 31, 2009 was $10.6 million, or $1.12 per share, compared
with GAAP net loss from continuing operations for 2008 of $4.0
million, or $0.43 per share. Non-GAAP net loss for the year ended
December 31, 2009 was $6.0 million, or $0.63 per share, compared
with a non-GAAP net loss for the year ended December 31, 2008 of
$284,000, or $0.03 per share. For 2009, non-GAAP net loss was
calculated by excluding income from discontinued operations of
$17.6 million, net of taxes, certain restructuring charges of $2.4
million, non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $2.0 million,
and inventory reserves and bad debt expense due to a customer
liquidation of $191,000. For 2008, non-GAAP net loss was calculated
by excluding loss from discontinued operations of $10.8 million,
net of taxes, non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $3.1
million, and inventory reserves and bad debt expense due to a
customer reorganization of $573,000.
“We are pleased to see the sequential improvement in revenue
from our core module business. The traction and customer interest
we are generating from our microwave integrated circuit product
line, which we launched in September, provides us with added
optimism,” said John Mikulsky, Endwave’s President and Chief
Executive Officer. “We remain keenly aware of the uncertainty that
persists in the global markets. Nevertheless, we believe our fourth
quarter’s revenue gain is witness to our ability to deliver
valuable products with the goal of broadening our opportunities now
and as the economy improves.
“On January 21st, we announced the repurchase of all of our
outstanding preferred shares from Oak Investments for $36.0 million
in cash. We believe this decision to remove the overhang on our
stock is in the best interest of our stockholders and enhances the
strategic flexibility of the Company,” continued Mr. Mikulsky. “Our
balance sheet remains strong and will enable us to fund our growth
both organically and through selective acquisitions.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement Endwave's condensed consolidated financial
statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Endwave uses certain
measures of financial performance that are non-GAAP financial
measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. These non-GAAP measures may
include gross margin, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per
share data that are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude
certain expenses, gains and losses. These non-GAAP measures are
provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of Endwave’s
current financial performance and Endwave’s prospects for the
future. Specifically, Endwave believes the non-GAAP measures
provide useful information to both management and investors by
excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of its core
operating results. These measures should be considered in addition
to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be
considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. These
non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been
reconciled to the GAAP results in the attached tables.
“Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995:
This press release and the conference call referred to in this
press release may contain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Federal securities laws and is subject to the safe
harbor created thereby. Any statements contained in this press
release or on the conference call that are not statements of

Words such as “plans,” “intends,” “expects,” “believes” and similar
expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking
statements. Information contained in forward-looking statements is
based on current expectations and is subject to change. Actual
results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements
due to many factors, including the following: global economic
conditions and their impact on our customers; volatility resulting
from consolidation of key customers; our ability to achieve revenue
growth and maintain profitability; our customer and market
concentration; our suppliers’ abilities to deliver raw materials to
our specifications and on time; our successful implementation of
next-generation programs, including inventory transitions; our
ability to penetrate new markets; fluctuations in our operating
results from quarter to quarter; our reliance on third-party
manufacturers and semiconductor foundries; acquiring businesses and
integrating them with our own; component, design or manufacturing
defects in our products; our dependence on key personnel; and
fluctuations in the price of our common stock. Forward-looking
statements contained in this press release and on our conference
call should be considered in light of these factors and those
factors discussed from time to time in Endwave's public reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as those
discussed under “Risk Factors” in Endwave’s most recent Annual
Report on Form 10-K and subsequently-filed reports on Form 10-Q.
Endwave does not undertake any obligation to update such
forward-looking statements.
