BEAVERTON, OR, Aug. 3, 2010 (Marketwire) --
BEAVERTON, OR -- (Marketwire) -- 08/03/10 -- Cascade Microtech (NASDAQ: CSCD) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.
Highlights from the second quarter:
-- Revenue of $23.4 million, up 17% over Q1 of 2010 and up 86% over Q2 of
2009.
-- Book to bill ratio that was above 1.1.
-- Net loss of $2.9 million or $0.20 per share for Q2 of 2010, compared to
a net loss of $7.4 million or $0.53 per share for Q1 of 2010. Q2 of
2010 financial results include approximately $0.4 million in
restructuring charges related to our Sockets product line and $0.2
million of acquisition charges related to the formerly announced
acquisition of the SUSS Microtech Test Division on January 27, 2010. Q1
of 2010 results include approximately $3.8M in acquisition and
restructuring charges.
-- Cash and investment balances decreased from Q1 2010 to Q2 2010 by $2.9
million to $19.8 million due primarily to working capital needs to
support the increase in revenue and backlog.
-- Cascade announced new CEO Michael Burger on July 6, 2010.
"I am very excited to have joined Cascade Microtech as its new CEO," said Michael Burger. "During the second quarter of 2010, we continued to execute against our plan. We are very pleased with the revenue trends and the outlook for the second half. The management team and I are focused on returning the company to profitability in the second half. In addition to top line growth, we were able to improve gross margins and build backlog. As evidenced by these results, the acquisition of the SUSS Microtech Test Division has positioned the company to better meet our customer's needs while providing a wider pathway to growth. I'm looking forward to working with Cascade's customers, vendors and employees as we grow the company. I would also like to thank Dr. Paul Carlson for stepping in as our interim CEO over the past seven months for his leadership and direction of the company."
Financial Outlook
Based on the current backlog, anticipated bookings and the current market environment, Cascade anticipates that third quarter 2010 revenues will be in the range of $23.0 million to $26.0 million.
