Power Integrations Reports Third-Quarter Financial Results

Revenues were $115.8 million; GAAP earnings were $0.25 per diluted share; non-GAAP earnings were $0.40 per diluted share

Announces five-percent dividend increase and $50 million share-repurchase authorization

Power Integrations (NASDAQ: POWI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Net revenues for the third quarter were $115.8 million, up nine percent from the prior quarter and down eight percent from the third quarter of 2023. GAAP net income for the third quarter was $14.3 million or $0.25 per diluted share compared to $0.09 per diluted share in the prior quarter and $0.34 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2023. Cash flow from operations for the third quarter was $32.9 million.

In addition to its GAAP results, the company provided non-GAAP measures that exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and the related tax effects. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2024 was $22.6 million or $0.40 per diluted share compared to $0.28 per diluted share in the prior quarter and $0.46 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2023. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial results is included with the tables accompanying this press release.

Commented Balu Balakrishnan, chairman and CEO of Power Integrations: “Our third-quarter results were on target, and while our outlook reflects soft end-market demand, particularly in consumer appliances, we nevertheless expect double-digit year-over-year revenue growth in the fourth quarter. In light of our strong balance sheet, our board of directors has authorized $50 million for share repurchases and increased our quarterly dividend by five percent.

“Progress on our PowiGaN™ technology roadmap continues apace, with the introduction earlier this week of the world’s first 1700-volt gallium-nitride transistors in our InnoMux™-2 product family. As PowiGaN technology reaches ever-higher voltage and power capabilities, it becomes an increasingly attractive, lower-cost alternative to silicon carbide. At the same time, its cost is approaching parity with the most advanced high-voltage silicon MOSFETs, but with far superior performance.”

Additional Highlights

  • Power Integrations’ board of directors has authorized the use of $50 million for the repurchase of the company’s common shares, subject to pre-determined price/volume thresholds. The authorization does not have an expiration date.
  • The company paid a dividend of $0.20 per share on September 30, 2024; a dividend of $0.21 per share will be paid on December 31, 2024, to stockholders of record as of November 29, 2024.

Financial Outlook

The company issued the following forecast for the fourth quarter of 2024:

  • Revenues are expected to be $105 million plus or minus $5 million.
  • GAAP gross margin is expected to be between 54 percent and 54.5 percent, and non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be between 55 percent and 55.5 percent. The difference between the GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins is approximately equally attributable to stock-based compensation and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.
  • GAAP operating expenses are expected to be between $53.5 million and $54 million; non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be between $44.5 million and $45 million. Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to exclude approximately $9 million of stock-based compensation.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the company's consolidated financial statements, which are presented according to GAAP, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information that excludes stock-based compensation expenses recorded under ASC 718-10, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and the tax effects of these items. The company uses these measures in its financial and operational decision-making and, with respect to one measure, in setting performance targets for compensation purposes. The company believes that these non-GAAP measures offer important analytical tools to help investors understand its operating results, and to facilitate comparability with the results of companies that provide similar measures. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial information. For example, stock-based compensation is an important component of the company’s compensation mix and will continue to result in significant expenses in the company’s GAAP results for the foreseeable future but is not reflected in the non-GAAP measures. Also, other companies, including companies in Power Integrations’ industry, may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures are attached to this press release.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The above statements regarding the company’s forecast for its fourth-quarter financial performance are forward-looking statements reflecting management's current expectations and beliefs. These statements are based on current information that is, by its nature, subject to rapid and even abrupt change. Due to risks and uncertainties associated with the company's business, actual results could differ materially from those projected or implied by these statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the company’s ability to supply products and its ability to conduct other aspects of its business such as competing for new design wins; changes in global economic and geopolitical conditions, including such factors as inflation, armed conflicts and trade negotiations, which may impact the level of demand for the company’s products; potential changes and shifts in customer demand away from end products that utilize the company's integrated circuits to end products that do not incorporate the company's products; the effects of competition, which may cause the company’s revenues to decrease or cause the company to decrease its selling prices for its products; unforeseen costs and expenses; and unfavorable fluctuations in component costs or operating expenses resulting from changes in commodity prices and/or exchange rates. In addition, new product introductions and design wins are subject to the risks and uncertainties that typically accompany development and delivery of complex technologies to the marketplace, including product development delays and defects and market acceptance of the new products. These and other risk factors that may cause actual results to differ are more fully explained under the caption “Risk Factors” in the company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2024. The company is under no obligation (and expressly disclaims any obligation) to update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.
