Aug. 9, 2010 (Business Wire) -- Universal Display Corporation (NASDAQ: PANL), enabling energy-efficient displays and lighting with its UniversalPHOLED™ technology and materials, today announced its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2010.
For the second quarter of 2010, the Company reported a net loss of $4,436,095, or $(0.12) per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $6,415,178, or $(0.18) per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2009. Net loss and loss per share for the second quarter of 2010 included a $2,582,428 non-cash loss on stock warrant liability. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2010 was reduced to $1,909,144 from $6,310,763 for the second quarter of 2009. The improvement in the operating loss was attributable to a significant increase in revenues, partially offset by higher operating expenses.
Revenues for the second quarter of 2010 were $8,446,829, compared to revenues of $2,956,354 for the second quarter of 2009. Commercial revenue, which includes commercial chemical revenue, license and royalty revenues, and commercialization assistance revenue, was $1,951,892 for the quarter, compared to $1,239,056 for the second quarter of 2009. Developmental revenue, which includes development chemical revenue, contract research revenue, and technology development revenue, was $6,494,937 for the quarter, compared to $1,717,298 for the second quarter of 2009. For the second quarter of 2010, developmental revenue included the recognition of $2,100,000 of non-refundable payments previously received from a customer for technical assistance that was provided under an agreement that expired in 2006. These payments had previously been classified as deferred revenue.
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were $10,355,973, compared to $9,267,117 for the second quarter of 2009.
“We are pleased to report a significant improvement in our second quarter 2010 financial performance,” said Sidney D. Rosenblatt, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Universal Display. “Revenues rose significantly and our operating loss was reduced by two-thirds compared to the second quarter of last year. As a result of the ever-widening utilization of our UniversalPHOLED™ technology and materials, both our commercial and developmental revenues increased and operating results improved. With display quality and power efficiency performance becoming an increasingly important selling feature for handheld devices, our strategy is to strengthen our technological leadership and continue our legacy of innovation to more firmly establish the UniversalPHOLED™ technology and materials franchise.”
Mr. Rosenblatt continued, “Demand for AMOLED displays is reportedly outstripping supply. Manufacturers are in the process of significantly expanding their capacity for small-area OLED display applications and migration to larger format displays is expected. In addition, the development of white OLED lighting should create another exciting market opportunity for our technology and materials. This quarter we announced a series of new technological innovations to help sustain our industry leadership, add to our competitive advantages, and create value for our shareholders.”
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company reported a net loss of $7,414,426, or $(0.20) per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $11,984,777, or $(0.33) per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2009. Operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $6,133,476, which was less than half the $12,304,361 operating loss for the same period in 2009.
For the first half of 2010, the Company reported revenues of $12,693,479, compared to revenues of $5,790,212 for the same period in 2009. Commercial revenues for the first six months of 2010 were $3,782,039, compared to $2,608,193 for the same period in 2009. Developmental revenue for the first six months of 2010 was $8,911,440, compared to $3,182,019 for the same period in 2009.
Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $2,757,981, compared to $8,798,154 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The improvement in cash used in operating activities was mainly attributable to the growth in revenues, partially offset by an increase in operating costs. The Company’s balance sheet remained strong at quarter end, with cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $66,092,924 as of June 30, 2010, up over $2 million compared to cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $63,874,081 as of December 31, 2009.
Mr. Rosenblatt concluded, “Looking ahead, the momentum behind adoption of AMOLED display technology in handheld devices appears to be accelerating. Longer term, we believe there is opportunity for additional demand for our UniversalPHOLED technology and materials in the emerging market for white OLEDs, as well as expansion into larger displays. We intend to follow the disciplined strategy that has established Universal Display as the industry leader to capitalize on the rising demand for more power efficient and cost-effective displays and lighting solutions in a world that is increasingly visual, environmentally-sensitive and energy efficient.”
