SANTA
CRUZ, Calif., Aug. 11,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Poly (NYSE: POLY), a global
outfitter of professional-grade audio and video technology, today
announced first quarter results for the period ended July 2, 2022.
Highlights for the first quarter include:
- GAAP revenues for fiscal Q1 were $416M, a 4% year-over-year decline driven
primarily by supply chain constraints impacting all product
categories. Headset revenue of $176M
and Voice revenue of $65M grew 2% and
7% year over year, respectively, while Video revenues of
$123M and Services revenue of
$52M declined -11% and -14%,
respectively.
- Geographically for fiscal Q1, Americas revenue of $225M was down 1%, EMEA revenue of $120M was down 5%, and APAC revenue of
$71M was down 8% from the prior
year.
- Fiscal Q1 GAAP gross margins of 40.4% and non-GAAP gross
margins of 44.9% were fundamentally flat from the prior year
quarter, as higher average selling prices were offset by
unfavorable product mix and continued elevated component and
logistics costs associated with supply chain disruptions.
- Poly continues to be recognized for its industrial design,
industry leading technology, and product innovation. Recent notable
awards include: The Red Dot Design Award for the Poly Sync 10
speakerphone and Poly Studio X70; Compass Intel Award for the
Voyager Focus 2; iF Design Award for the Poly Studio E70, Poly
Studio X70, Voyager Focus 2, Sync 10, and Poly Studio R30; ISE Best
of Show Award for the Poly Sync Series, Poly Studio X70 and Studio
E70; InfoComm Best of Show Award for the Poly Studio R30; rAVe
Reader's Choice Award for the Poly Studio Series; Golden Bridge Award for the Poly Studio E70;
TMCnet UC Product of the Year for the Poly Studio E70; and Pandemic
Tech Innovation Awards for the Poly Studio P Series.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements
presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP measures of operating
results, including non-GAAP net revenues, non-GAAP gross profit,
non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP
net income, adjusted EBITDA, and non-GAAP diluted EPS. These
non-GAAP measures are adjusted from the most directly comparable
GAAP measures to exclude certain non-cash transactions and
activities that are not reflective of our ongoing core operations,
as further described below. We believe the use of each of these
non-GAAP measures provides meaningful supplemental information in
assessing our operating performance and liquidity across reporting
periods on a consistent basis and are used by management in
evaluating financial performance and in strategic planning. These
non-GAAP measures may differ from those used by other companies and
are not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a
substitute for, financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency
with current year presentation.
Non-GAAP Adjustments
- Purchase accounting amortization: Represents the
amortization of purchased intangible assets recorded in connection
with the acquisition of Polycom on July 2,
2018.
- Deferred revenue purchase accounting: Represents
the impact of fair value purchase accounting adjustments related to
deferred revenue recorded in connection with the acquisition of
Polycom on July 2, 2018. The
Company's deferred revenue primarily relates to Services revenue
associated with non-cancelable maintenance support on hardware
devices which are typically billed in advance and recognized
ratably over the contract term as those services are delivered.
This adjustment represents the amount of additional revenue that
would have been recognized during the period absent the write-down
to fair value required under purchase accounting guidance.
- Stock compensation expense: Represents the non-cash
expense associated with the Company's grant of stock-based awards
to employees and non-employee directors.
- Acquisition costs: Represents charges incurred in
connection with the Merger Agreement with HP, such as advisory,
legal and accounting fees.
- Restructuring and other related charges: Represents
costs associated with restructuring plans and reorganization
actions aimed at improving the Company's overall cost structure,
realigning resources consistent with its global strategy, and
reducing expenses to enable strategic investments in revenue
growth. These costs are not reflective of ongoing operations and
are primarily associated with reductions in the Company's
workforce, facility related charges due to the closure or
consolidation of offices, and other related costs, including legal
and advisory services.
- Deferred compensation mark to market: Represents gains
and losses driven by the remeasurement of assets and liabilities
associated with the Company's deferred compensation plans. Gains
and losses on plan liabilities are recognized within operating
expenses, while the offsetting gains and losses on plan assets are
recognized within other non-operating income, net.
- Loss, net on litigation settlements: The Company may be
involved in various litigation, claims and proceedings that result
in payments or recoveries from such proceedings. The related gains
and losses incurred are excluded as they are not reflective of
ongoing operations.
- Income tax effects: Represents the tax effects of
non-GAAP adjustments and other adjustments, depending on the nature
of the underlying items. The exclusion of the above-mentioned items
eliminates the effect of certain non-recurring and unusual tax
items that do not necessarily reflect the Company's long-term
operations. The income tax effects for unusual tax items primarily
represents the impact of the tax benefit associated with an IP
transfer between wholly-owned subsidiaries, changes in uncertain
tax positions, excess stock tax benefit, and the full valuation
allowance on United States federal
and state deferred tax assets.
