Ichor Holdings, Ltd. Announces Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

November 8, 2022

FREMONT, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ichor Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: ICHR), a leader in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of critical fluid delivery subsystems and components for semiconductor capital equipment, today announced third quarter 2022 financial results.

Third quarter 2022 highlights:

• Record revenues of $356 million, at the upper end of our guidance range and up 8% from Q2;
• Gross margin of 17.9% on a GAAP basis and 18.0% on a non‑GAAP basis, up 100 bp from Q2; and
• Earnings per share of $1.00 on a GAAP basis, and a record $1.22 on a non‑GAAP basis.

“Ichor’s record revenues for the third quarter were at the high end of our expectations due to both the continued elevated level of customer demand as well as strong operational execution by our team,” commented Jeff Andreson, chief executive officer. “We exceeded the high end of our earnings expectations primarily due to solid gross margin performance, which also drove record operating income in the quarter. Since last quarter, the business environment for wafer fabrication environment has weakened, most recently as a result of the recent export restrictions to China, as well as a pull-back in overall memory investments. Fortunately, over the last few years we have significantly reduced our exposure to the memory market, and, in this environment, we expect to demonstrate the resiliency of our business model and our ability to continue to outperform WFE. Ichor continues to play a crucial role in the global semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem, and we look forward to continuing our focus on developing proprietary new products and winning evaluation programs with both new and existing customers in the coming year.”

U.S. GAAP Financial Results Overview

For the third quarter of 2022, revenue was $355.6 million, net income was $29.0 million, and net income per diluted share (“diluted EPS”) was $1.00. This compares to revenue of $329.6 million and $262.9 million, net income of $21.5 million and $18.5 million, and diluted EPS of $0.74 and $0.64, for the second quarter of 2022 and third quarter of 2021, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Results Overview

For the third quarter of 2022, non-GAAP net income was $35.4 million and non-GAAP diluted EPS was $1.22. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $28.3 million and $23.4 million, and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.98 and $0.81, for the second quarter of 2022 and third quarter of 2021, respectively.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2022, we expect revenue to be in the range of $315 million to $355 million. We expect GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.57 to $0.83 and non-GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.80 to $1.04.

This outlook for non‑GAAP diluted EPS excludes known charges related to amortization of intangible assets, share‑based compensation expense, tax adjustments related to these non-GAAP adjustments, and non-recurring charges known at the time of providing this outlook. This outlook for non-GAAP diluted EPS excludes any items that are unknown at this time, such as non-recurring tax-related items or other unusual or infrequent items which we are not able to predict without unreasonable efforts due to their inherent uncertainty.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Results

We ended the third quarter of 2022 with cash and cash equivalents of $56.5 million, an increase of $10.4 million from the prior quarter, and a decrease of $19.0 million from our 2021 fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

The increase of $10.4 million during the third quarter was primarily due to net cash provided by operating activities of $19.6 million, partially offset by capital expenditures of $8.0 million.

The decrease of $19.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to capital expenditures of $22.5 million and cash used in operating activities of $7.3 million, partially offset by net proceeds from our credit facilities of $9.4 million.

Our cash used in operating activities of $7.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 consisted of an increase in our net operating assets and liabilities of $100.1 million, partially offset by net income of $58.6 million and net non-cash charges of $34.2 million, which consists primarily of depreciation and amortization of $26.7 million and share-based compensation expense of $10.1 million.

The increase in our net operating assets and liabilities of $100.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in inventories of $54.5 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $40.3 million, and a decrease in accounts payable of $18.5 million. The increase in our inventories is primarily driven by elevated purchasing activity pursuant to strong customer demand and certain supply chain component constraints. The decrease in accounts payable and increase in accounts receivable were primarily due to fluctuations in payment timing to suppliers and from customers, as well as higher revenues in the last two weeks of the third quarter of 2022 compared to the last two weeks of the fourth quarter of 2021.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results

In addition to U.S. GAAP results, this press release also contains non-GAAP financial results, including non‑GAAP gross profit, non‑GAAP operating income, non‑GAAP net income, non‑GAAP diluted EPS, and free cash flow. Management uses these non-GAAP metrics to evaluate our operating and financial results. We believe the presentation of non-GAAP results is useful to investors for analyzing business trends and comparing performance to prior periods, along with enhancing investors’ ability to view our results from management’s perspective. Non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, and net income are defined as: gross profit, operating income, or net income, as applicable, excluding (1) amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, and non-recurring expenses, including acquisition-related costs and charges, contract and legal settlement losses, and facility shutdown costs, to the extent they are present in gross profit, operating income, and net income; and (2) the tax impacts associated with our non-GAAP adjustments, as well as non-recurring discrete tax items. Non-GAAP diluted EPS is defined as non-GAAP net income divided by weighted average diluted ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin are defined as non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP operating income, respectively, divided by net sales. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by or used in operating activities, less capital expenditures. Tables showing these metrics on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, with reconciliation footnotes thereto, are included at the end of this press release.

Non-GAAP results have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for our results reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP results differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, both of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP results as a tool for comparison.

Because of these limitations, you should consider non-GAAP results alongside other financial performance measures and results presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, in evaluating non-GAAP results, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses such as those that are the subject of adjustments in deriving non-GAAP results and you should not infer from our presentation of non-GAAP results that our future results will not be affected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items.

(1)		During the second quarter of 2020, we announced the closure of our manufacturing facility in Union City, California, which we completed in 2021. Included in this amount for the nine months ended September 24, 2021 are write-off costs associated with inventories determined during the period to be obsolete and severance and other shutdown related charges, partially offset by a gain realized upon the sale of equipment and other fixed assets.
(2)		As part of the purchase price allocations of our acquisitions of IMG Companies, LLC (“IMG”) in November 2021 and a precision machining operation in Mexico in December 2020, we recorded acquired-inventories at fair value, resulting in a fair value step-up. These amounts represent the release of the step-up to cost of sales as acquired-inventories were sold.
(3)		Included in this amount for the nine months ended September 24, 2021 is primarily a non-recurring settlement charge.
