California Micro Devices Reports March Quarter and Fiscal 2006 Financial Results

Fiscal 2006 Revenue and Net Income Increase Year on Year, Achieving All Time Highs

MILPITAS, Calif., May 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- California Micro Devices (NASDAQ: CAMD) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, which ended March 31, 2006. Revenue was $17.4 million compared to $14.5 million a year ago. On a GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share were $0.22 compared to a loss of $0.05 a year ago. Non-GAAP diluted earnings were $0.10 per share, excluding the effect of a partial release of the valuation allowance associated with the net deferred tax asset in the amount of $2.7 million. The loss in the year ago quarter included restructuring charges of $270,000.

Fiscal 2006 revenue reached an all time high of $70.2 million compared to the record $65.9 million posted a year ago. On a GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share were $0.44 compared to $0.18 a year ago. Non-GAAP diluted earnings were a record $0.32 per share, excluding the effect of the partial release of the valuation allowance mentioned above. Fiscal 2005 results included restructuring charges of approximately $1.3 million.

"I am pleased to report that in Q4 we achieved revenue just below the high end of our guidance and that our gross margin percentage and pro forma EPS exceeded the high end of our guidance," said Robert V. Dickinson, president and chief executive officer. "Revenue from both mobile handsets and from personal computers and digital consumer electronics showed strong growth year on year and we set a new record for low capacitance ESD revenue as the result of strong growth of both PicoGuard(TM) and MediaGuard(TM) shipments. Bookings rebounded to $18.5 million in Q4 and design wins reached record levels.

"Our Q4 represented a solid finish for fiscal 2006 in which we achieved new records for revenue, net income, cash, bookings and design wins and the highest gross margin percentage in more than ten years. This is especially notable in light of our exit from non-core businesses at the end of fiscal 2005." Dickinson summarized fiscal 2006 achievements as follows:

    -- Core revenue growth of 29 percent
    -- Third consecutive year of profitability with pro forma diluted EPS
       reaching a record $0.32
    -- Gross margin of 37.3 percent, highest in 10 years
    -- Mobile handset product revenue growth of 35 percent
    -- Personal computer and digital consumer electronics product revenue
       growth of 13 percent
    -- Low capacitance ASIP unit shipments, revenue and design wins all more
       than tripled
    -- Ending cash balance of $49.7 million, up 38 percent from last year
    -- 1,436 design wins, up 18 percent from last year
    -- Sale of Tempe AZ facility, completing the transition to a fully fabless
       business model
    -- Initiated the Arques Technology acquisition to strengthen analog design
       team, LED driver portfolio and Asia presence
