b) See accompanying tables for an analysis of Besi's fourth quarter and full year 2009 income statements before acquisition, restructuring and other adjustments. Includes Esec results as of April 1, 2009.
Richard W. Blickman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Besi, commented: "In 2009, we successfully navigated one of the most challenging years for our industry as a result of our cost reduction efforts, balance sheet strength and ability to capitalize on a strategic acquisition opportunity. The year was characterized by semi-annual periods that differed greatly due to an industry upturn beginning in the second quarter of 2009 in parallel with our purchase of Esec. As such, our second half orders and revenue more than doubled as compared to the first half of the year.
We remained highly focused on executing our business strategy this year. We acquired Esec, developed next generation systems to aid revenue growth in 2010 and executed restructuring activities to reduce break-even cost levels and support our Asian production strategy. In addition, we laid the groundwork for cost savings in 2010 and 2011 by means of a December 2009 headcount reduction plan targeting € 8.5 million of annualized cost savings and a realignment of our packaging systems business to improve portfolio returns.
In combination with improved industry conditions, we were able to reduce our adjusted net loss in each quarter of 2009 as a result of our cost reduction and Esec integration efforts. We seek to capitalize on a positive industry outlook next year combined with ongoing overhead reduction and changes to our organizational structure to restore profitability."
2009 Strategic Developments
We undertook a series of actions in 2009 to advance our strategic initiatives, accelerate revenue growth and reduce our cost structure including:
- Acquisition of Esec: Our purchase of Esec significantly increased the market share of our die bonding business, one of the fastest growing segments of the assembly market. It also further advanced our product strategy into the mainstream assembly equipment market. In addition, the acquisition enabled us to leverage the upside revenue potential of an emerging industry recovery in 2009 and promises opportunities for profit growth through organizational synergies.
- Development of New Products: We developed next generation singulation and die sorting systems for array connect and wafer level packaging applications and a new foil assisted molding system in 2009 that should aid revenue growth in 2010.
- Execution of Restructuring Objectives: 2009 achievements include the
- o realization of € 15 million targeted annualized cost savings,
- o reduction of combined headcount (including Esec) by 18% since December 31, 2008,
- o sale of our Hungarian die bonding operations and its production transfer to Malaysia,
- o rationalization of our Meco plating unit,
- o establishment of a 10% headcount reduction plan in December 2009 targeting € 8.5 million of annualized cost savings by 2011 and a realignment of our packaging systems business to improve returns of the product portfolio.
Fourth Quarter Results of Operations
Besi's € 4.5 million (9.2%) revenue increase in the fourth quarter of 2009 as compared to the third quarter of 2009 was broad based across its assembly product portfolio reflecting improved market conditions and higher than anticipated order levels, a portion of which were shipped during the quarter. The increase was above prior guidance (flat sequentially).
Orders for the fourth quarter of 2009 were € 59.2 million, an increase of € 6.3 million as compared to the third quarter of 2009 and € 41.0 million, or 225.3%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2008. The sequential 11.9% increase in fourth quarter 2009 orders was primarily related to increased die bonding and packaging equipment bookings as the industry recovery continued and extended to back end assembly applications. On a customer basis, bookings in the fourth quarter of 2009 as compared to the third quarter of 2009 reflected a € 9.3 million (50.5%) increase by IDMs partially offset by a € 3.0 million (8.7%) decrease by subcontractors. Backlog at December 31, 2009 increased by € 6.1 million (13.6%) to € 51.0 million as compared to € 44.9 million at September 30, 2009, of which approximately 36% and 64% of backlog at December 31, 2009 was represented by array connect and leadframe assembly applications, respectively.
Besi's gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2009 was 20.1% as compared to 34.0% in the third quarter of 2009 and 27.1% in the fourth quarter of 2008. Besi's gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2009 was adversely affected by € 5.4 million (10.2 points) of non-cash inventory write-downs associated with the realignment of our packaging equipment portfolio. Excluding such charges, our adjusted gross margin was 30.3% in the fourth quarter of 2009 (prior guidance of 30-32%) as compared to 26.9% in the third quarter of 2009 primarily due to increased sales volume and higher die bonding systems margins.
Besi's total operating expenses were € 23.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 as compared to € 18.3 million in the third quarter of 2009 and € 36.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. The increase in fourth quarter sequential operating expenses was due to € 4.4 million of restructuring charges primarily related to the value of remaining lease obligations for excess production capacity at its Dutch facilities and severance costs. Excluding restructuring charges, operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2009 were € 2.0 million higher than the third quarter of 2009 and prior guidance (€ 17.4 million) primarily due to (i) one-time costs related to the closure of a Datacon facility and the write-off of capitalized development costs and (ii) higher than anticipated warranty and Esec IT integration expenses. In the fourth quarter of 2009, we capitalized € 2.1 million of development expenses as compared to € 1.7 million in the third quarter of 2009.
Full Year Results of Operations
Besi's results of operations for the full year 2009 include our Esec subsidiary which was acquired on April 1, 2009. Besi's revenue in 2009 was € 147.9 million as compared to € 149.4 million in 2008 as revenue from the Esec acquisition substantially offset the negative impact of the semiconductor industry downturn in the first half
of the year. Orders for 2009 were € 162.5 million, an increase of 28.7% as compared to 2008 due primarily to the second half market recovery and the addition of new die bonding and wire bonding products to our product portfolio as a result of the Esec purchase. For 2009, we recorded net income of € 5.4 million (or € 0.16 per share) due to a one-time badwill gain related to the Esec transaction as compared to a net loss of € 33.6 million (or (€ 1.09) per share) for 2008. Excluding all adjustments, we had a net loss for 2009 of € 28.0 million or (€ 0.85) per share as compared to a net loss of € 4.1 million or (€ 0.13 per share) in 2008. In 2009, Dragon cost reduction efforts partially offset the impact of operating losses caused by the industry downturn and the absorption of operating losses generated by our Esec subsidiary from its date of acquisition.
Our quarterly financial performance has improved significantly during 2009 due to improved industry conditions, the acquisition of Esec on April 1, 2009 and benefits from our Dragon II and Esec integration efforts. Set forth below is a summary of Besi's quarterly pro forma combined revenue, adjusted net loss and backlog for 2009 as if the Esec acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2009.
| ProForma (€ millions) | Q1 2009 | Q2 2009 | Q3 2009 | Q4 2009 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 21.1 | 30.5 | 48.7 | 53.2 |
| Adjusted net loss | (19.2) | (10.9) | (6.0) | (3.8) |
| Backlog | 33.6 | 40.7 | 44.9 | 51.0 |
Financial Condition
Our cash and cash equivalents were € 73.1 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to € 68.0 million at September 30, 2009. The increase in sequential quarterly cash was due to a cash surplus from operations of € 7.4 million primarily as a result of lower inventory levels and receivable days outstanding and higher payables and accrued liabilities partially offset by (i) debt reduction of € 0.2 million, (ii) funding for capitalized development costs of € 2.1 million and (iii) capital expenditures of € 0.7 million. At December 31, 2009, we had € 53.5 million of cash and cash equivalents in excess of bank borrowings and capital lease obligations and net cash and cash equivalents of € 19.7 million.
Outlook
At present, industry analysts have a positive outlook for 2010. VLSI, a leading independent industry analyst, expects growth of 43% for the semiconductor assembly equipment market this year. From our perspective, we have experienced broad based growth across our entire system portfolio in the third and fourth quarters of 2009 consistent with the global economic recovery. However, we remain cautious about the duration and extent of this industry upturn and growth projections for the full year given the headwinds currently confronting the global economy.
Based on our December 31, 2009 backlog and feedback from customers, we forecast for Q1-2010 that:
- Revenue will be approximately equal to the € 53.2 million achieved in Q4-2009
- Gross margins (excluding restructuring charges) will range between 31-33% as compared to an adjusted gross margin of 30.3% realized in Q4-2009
- Operating expenses (excluding restructuring charges) will decrease to approximately € 17.5 million as compared to € 19.4 million reported in Q4-2009
- Capital expenditures will be approximately € 1.5 million
As a result, we anticipate that our adjusted net loss will continue to reduce sequentially in Q1-2010 as compared to Q4-2009 (excluding restructuring charges). In connection with our December 2009 headcount reduction plan, we anticipate incurring restructuring charges of € 5-6 million in Q1-2010, which represents substantially all of the remaining costs associated with such plan. Besi also expects that its net cash position in Q1-2010 will decline in comparison to Q4-2009 as a result of cash required to finance higher inventory levels and a reduction of payable levels outstanding.
