Item 2.02. Results of Operation and Financial Condition
On January 11, 2006, Richardson Electronics, Ltd. issued a press release reporting results for its fiscal second quarter ended December 3, 2005. A copy of the press release is furnished below:
Richardson Reports Second Quarter Operating Income of $7.4 Million, up 50.8% from the Prior Year
LaFox, IL, Wednesday, January 11, 2006: Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RELL) today reported results for its fiscal second quarter ended December 3, 2005. Sales in the quarter were $155.8 million, an increase of 3.0% from the second quarter of fiscal 2005. Gross margin improved to 25.4% of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 from 24.4% of sales in the same period last year. Operating income increased 50.8% to $7.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 from $4.9 million in the same quarter last year.
Net income was $0.5 million in the second quarter, or $0.03 per diluted common share, as compared with $4.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share, in the same quarter last fiscal year. The decrease in net income from the prior year was primarily due to foreign exchange fluctuations. The results for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 include a foreign exchange loss of $3.8 million, as compared to a foreign exchange gain of $3.3 million in the second quarter last year. The foreign exchange loss was due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to debt due from foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. parent company and denominated in foreign currencies.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company implemented a reorganization plan encompassing the Companys RF & Wireless Communications Group and Industrial Power Group business units. Effective for the second quarter of fiscal 2006, Industrial Power Group has been designated as Electron Device Group and RF & Wireless Communications Group has been designated as RF, Wireless & Power Division. The reorganization was implemented to increase efficiencies by integrating Industrial Power Groups power conversion sales and product management into RF & Wireless Communications Group, expanding the geographic sales coverage and seeking to drive power conversion sales growth by leveraging RF & Wireless Communications Groups larger sales resources. In addition, the Company believes that Electron Device Group will benefit from an increased focus on the high-margin tube business with a simplified global sales and product management structure to work more effectively with customers and vendors. All data presented has been reclassified to reflect the reorganization.
Sales Highlights Second Quarter Fiscal 2006 as Compared with Second Quarter Fiscal 2005
The Company recorded year-over-year sales growth for the second quarter of fiscal 2006. RF, Wireless & Power Division led the sales growth, increasing sales 6.5% with higher demand for network access and passive/interconnect products. Sales for Security Systems Division grew 3.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2006, led by sales increases in private label products. Electron Device Groups sales increased 2.8% mainly due to growth in semiconductor fabrication equipment and tube products. Sales for Display Systems Group were down 7.1% due mainly to the delay in closing project business which is expected to be shipped over the balance of the year, offset by an increase in sales of custom display products resulting from the acquisition of A.C.T. Kern GmbH & Co. KG effective June 1, 2005.
On a geographic basis, sales in Latin America grew 20.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 as compared with the prior year period driven mainly by higher demand for security and electron device products. Sales in Asia/Pacific increased 9.5% with continued strong demand for wireless products, while sales in Europe were up 3.7%. Sales in North America declined 0.7% due mainly to lower demand for display systems in the U.S. and Canada, offset somewhat by growth in wireless products sales in the U.S.
We are extremely pleased with the year-over-year improvement in operating income for the quarter, said Edward J. Richardson, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Achieving higher sales and improving gross margin while keeping operating spending levels in line with last years second quarter will assist us in achieving our goal of continuous operating performance improvement.
