“We achieved a number of significant milestones in 2019, in support of our long-term growth initiatives,” continued Mr. Blonigan. “We booked a record $40M order in July in Photonics, which along with the IVAS program, drove Photonics backlog to new record levels, giving us multi-year visibility for continued strong growth and profitability for this business. In our TFE growth initiatives, in 2019 we launched our new Marathon system and ultra-durable DiamondClad coatings, which enable best-in-class protective films at an attractive price point for the mobile device market. We were successful in placing evaluation systems with industry leaders, including VERTEX in the display cover panel market, and MATRIX in the advanced semiconductor packaging industry.


“Each of these milestones supports the long-term revenue growth and profitability objectives for Intevac,” concluded Mr. Blonigan. “As we look towards our outlook for 2020, we continue to drive towards another year of growth, which we expect will be supported by continued momentum in our Photonics business and the successful execution of our TFE growth initiatives.”

The improvement from the fourth quarter of 2018 and the third quarter of 2019 was primarily due to favorable product mix. Photonics gross margin was 45.7% compared to 42.1% in the fourth quarter of 2018 and 43.1% in the third quarter of 2019. The improvement from the fourth quarter of 2018 and the third quarter of 2019 was primarily due to improved margins on research and development contracts. Consolidated gross margin was 46.5%, compared to 33.5% in the fourth quarter of 2018 and 33.4% in the third quarter of 2019.

R&D and SG&A expenses were $9.2 million, compared to $8.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 and to $9.2 million in the third quarter of 2019.

Revenues were $108.9 million, including $73.7 million of TFE revenues and $35.2 million of Photonics revenues, of which $19.7 million was contract R&D revenues, compared to revenues of $95.1 million, which included $69.3 million of TFE revenues and $25.8 million of Photonics revenues, for 2018.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Intevac’s non-GAAP results exclude the impact of the following, where applicable: (1) changes in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities associated with business combinations; (2) restructuring charges; and (3) the reversal of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance. A reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided in the financial tables included in this release.

Management uses non-GAAP results to evaluate the company’s operating and financial performance in light of business objectives and for planning purposes. These measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies.

Results for the year ended December 29, 2018 include severance and other employee-related costs related to a restructuring program.

 

3 

Results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 29, 2018 include the reversal of the valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets of the Company’s Singapore operations. The Company concluded that, as of December 29, 2018 it is more likely than not that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in Singapore to realize its deferred tax assets. This conclusion, and the resulting reversal of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, was based upon consideration of a number of factors, including the Company’s completion of seven consecutive quarters of profitability in Singapore and its forecast of future profitability of its Singapore operations.

The amount represents the estimated income tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments. The Company calculated the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments by applying an applicable estimated jurisdictional tax rate to each specific non-GAAP item.
