EINDHOVEN, The Netherlands, Oct. 25, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ:NXPI) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended October 1, 2017.

NXP delivered revenue of $2.39 billion, a decline of 3 percent year on year, and up 8 percent as compared to the prior quarter, with the annual period comparison impacted by the successful divestment of the Standard Products business during the first quarter of 2017. HPMS segment revenue was $2.29 billion, an increase of 9 percent on both a year on year, and on a sequential basis.

Within the Automotive group, third quarter revenue was $948 million, up 11 percent year on year. Within the Secure Connected Devices group, third quarter revenue was $713 million, up 20 percent year on year driven by demand for both mobile transaction and general purpose MCU products. In the Secure Interface and Infrastructure group, third quarter revenue was $488 million, up 3 percent year on year, driven by the Interface group, offset primarily by year-on-year declines within the legacy product portfolio of the Digital Networking group. Lastly, in Secure Identification Solutions group, third quarter revenue was $139 million, down 22 percent versus the same period a year ago.

A year ago, NXP announced the transaction with Qualcomm. At the time, we highlighted that the deal at $110 given the benefits to all our shareholders and other stakeholders was a compelling deal for NXP and would close significant strategic gaps in both the Automotive and IOT space. NXP continues to support and recommend the $110 Qualcomm offer for acceptance to NXP shareholders.

“We believe that working together with Qualcomm, given the complimentary product portfolios of the combined company will enable us to better support our customers’ long term requirements in both autonomous driving and secure IoT. We are working diligently with Qualcomm and the various regulators towards a successful close this year. However, at this point the timetable is very tight and there is a possibility for the closing to occur in early 2018,” said Richard Clemmer, NXP Chief Executive Officer.

“In the third quarter, our GAAP operating margin was 6.8 percent, a 20-basis point decline from the third quarter of 2016 due to the divestment of our Standard Products business. Our non-GAAP operating margin was 30.8 percent, representing a 280-basis point improvement compared to the third quarter of 2016 and a 240-basis point improvement sequentially. And finally, due to lower gross debt and cash generation in the quarter, our overall financial leverage was reduced to 1.1x,” said Peter Kelly, NXP Chief Financial Officer.

Additional Information for the Third Quarter 2017:

On October 27, 2016 Qualcomm, Incorporated (NASDAQ:QCOM) and NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ:NXPI) announced a definitive agreement, unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies, under which Qualcomm will acquire NXP. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, a subsidiary of Qualcomm will commence a tender offer to acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of NXP for $110.00 per share in cash. The tender offer commenced on November 18, 2016.
Total gross debt was $6.56 billion, essentially flat on a sequential basis. Cash was $3.06 billion, an increase from the $2.64 billion in the second quarter, resulting in net debt of $3.49 billion, a decline from the $3.91 billion in the second quarter. Trailing twelve months, adjusted EBITDA was $3.12 billion, an increase from $3.07 billion in the second quarter. Financial leverage, defined as net debt divided by trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA was 1.12x, an improvement from 1.27x in the second quarter.
Cash flow from operations was $643 million, an increase from the $441 million in the second quarter. Net capital expenditures on property, plant and equipment was $161 million, an increase from the $96 million in the second quarter. Non-GAAP free cash flow, defined as cash flow from operations, less net capital expenditures on property, plant and equipment was $482 million, an increase from the $345 million in the second quarter.
NXP repurchased 19.5 thousand shares for a total cost of $2.1 million. Weighted average number of diluted shares (after deduction of treasury shares) for the three-month period ended October 1, 2017 was 346 million. Due to the pending acquisition by Qualcomm, NXP has suspended its open market share repurchases. Shares are currently only repurchased in relation to employee equity award transactions.
Net cash paid for interest was $27 million.
Net cash paid for income taxes related to on-going operations was $23 million, with an additional $91 million paid related to the divestment of the Standard Products business, for a total of $114 million.
SSMC, NXP’s consolidated joint-venture wafer fab with TSMC, reported third quarter 2017 operating income of $38 million, EBITDA of $52 million and a closing cash balance of $217 million. During the quarter, SSMC paid a previously announced dividend of $228 million.
NXP combined wafer-fab utilization averaged 93 percent, as compared to 94 percent in the prior quarter.
Working capital metrics inclusive of assets and liabilities held for sale on the balance sheet were:
- Days of inventory was 99 days, a decline of 4 days sequentially versus the second quarter;
- Days payable was 86 days, a decline of 7 days sequentially from the second quarter;
- Days sales was 35 days a decline of 3 days sequentially from the second quarter; and
- The cash conversion cycle was 48 days, flat on a sequential basis versus the second quarter.
Channel inventory held by NXP’s distribution partners was 2.3 months, flat as compared to the second quarter, in line with NXPs long-term channel target of 2.5 months, plus or minus a half month. Reconciling for the divestment of the Standard Products business, sales into the distribution channel were up 17 percent, sales out of the distribution channel were up 15 percent and total distribution channel inventory on a dollar basis was up 10 percent.

Guidance and Conference Call

As previously announced, NXP will not hold an earnings call nor provide forward guidance for the fourth quarter of 2017 due to the pending acquisition of NXP by Qualcomm.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In managing NXP's business on a consolidated basis, management develops an annual operating plan, which is approved by our Board of Directors, using non-GAAP financial measures. In measuring performance against this plan, management considers the actual or potential impacts on these non-GAAP financial measures from actions taken to reduce costs with the goal of increasing our gross margin and operating margin and when assessing appropriate levels of research and development efforts. In addition, management relies upon these non-GAAP financial measures when making decisions about product spending, administrative budgets, and other operating expenses. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when coupled with the GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of the Company’s results of operations and the factors and trends affecting NXP’s business. We believe that they enable investors to perform additional comparisons of our operating results, to assess our liquidity and capital position and to analyze financial performance excluding the effect of expenses unrelated to operations, certain non-cash expenses and share-based compensation expense, which may obscure trends in NXP's underlying performance. This information also enables investors to compare financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management.

These non-GAAP financial measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The presentation of these and other similar items in NXP’s non-GAAP financial results should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent, or unusual. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP are provided in the financial statements portion of this release in a schedule entitled “Financial Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Results (unaudited).” Please refer to the NXP Historic Financial Model file found on the Financial Information page of the Investor Relations section of our website at www.nxp.com/investor for additional information related to our rationale for using these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as the impact of these measures on the presentation of NXP's operations.

In addition to providing financial information on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), NXP also provides the following selected financial measures on a non-GAAP basis: (i) Gross profit, (ii) Gross margin, (iii) Research and development, (iv) Selling, general and administrative, (v) Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, (vi) Other income, (vii) Operating income (loss), (viii) Operating margin, (ix) Financial Income (expense), (x) EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and trailing 12 month adjusted EBITDA, and (xi) non-GAAP free cash flow and free cash flow as a percent of Revenue. The non-GAAP information excludes the amortization of acquisition related intangible assets, the purchase accounting effect on inventory and property, plant and equipment, merger related costs (including integration costs), certain items related to divestitures, share-based compensation expense, restructuring and asset impairment charges, non-cash interest expense on convertible notes, extinguishment of debt, changes in the fair value of the warrant liability prior to January 1, 2016 and foreign exchange gains and losses.
