Safe Harbor Statement
This press release and the statements made by management contain statements about management’s future expectations, plans or prospects of Oclaro, Inc. and its business, and the assumptions underlying these statements, constitute forward-looking statements for the purposes of the safe harbor provisions of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements concerning (i) financial targets and expectations, including financial targets and expectations related to revenue; gross margin; research and development expenses; sales, general and administrative expenses; non-GAAP operating margin; and progress toward our targeted business model, (ii) financial guidance for the fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2010, including guidance regarding revenue, non-GAAP gross margin and adjusted EBITDA, (iii) the impact of the acquisitions of Avanex Corporation and Xtellus Inc. and the Spectra-Physics asset swap on the combined entity’s gross margin, (iv) sources for improvement of gross margin and operating expenses, including supply chain synergies, optimizing mix of product offerings, transition to higher margin product offerings, benefits of combined R&D and sales organizations and single public company costs, including statements regarding the expectation of further synergies, (v) opportunities to grow in adjacent markets and (vi) statements containing the words “target,” "believe," "plan," "anticipate," "expect," "estimate," "will," "should," "ongoing," and similar expressions. There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including the impact of continued uncertainty in world financial markets and the resulting reduction in demand for our products, the future performance of Oclaro, Inc. following the closing of the mergers with Avanex Corporation and Xtellus Inc. and the Spectra-Physics asset swap, the inability to realize the expected benefits and synergies as a result of the of the mergers with Avanex Corporation and Xtellus Inc. and the Spectra-Physics asset swap, increased costs related to downsizing and compliance with regulatory compliance in connection with such downsizing, the lack of availability of credit or opportunity for equity based financing, as well as the factors described in Oclaro's most recent annual report on Form 10-K, most recent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other documents we periodically file with the SEC. The forward-looking statements included in this announcement represent Oclaro's view as of the date of this presentation. Oclaro anticipates that subsequent events and developments may cause Oclaro’s views and expectations to change. However, Oclaro specifically disclaims any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company provides certain supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to its investors as a complement to the most comparable GAAP measures. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP revenues is revenues. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP gross margin rate is gross margin rate. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating income/loss is operating income/loss. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP net income/loss is net income/loss. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net income/loss. An explanation and reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP information is set forth below.
The Company believes that providing these non-GAAP measures to its investors, in addition to corresponding income statement measures, provides investors the benefit of viewing the Company’s performance using the same financial metrics that the management team uses in making many key decisions and understanding how the Company’s “core operating performance” and its results of operations may look in the future. The Company believes that providing this information allows the Company’s investors greater transparency and a better understanding of the Company’s core financial performance. The Company believes its “core operating performance” represents the Company’s on-going performance in the ordinary course of its operations. Management excludes from “core operating performance” those items, such as impairment charges, income taxes, restructuring and severance programs and costs relating to specific major projects which are non-recurring, expenses or income from certain legal actions, settlements and related costs, as well as non-cash compensation related to stock and options. Management does not believe these items, including recurring non-cash items, are reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and accordingly excludes those items from non-GAAP gross margin rate, non-GAAP operating income/loss and non-GAAP net income/loss. Additionally, each non-GAAP measure has historically been presented by the Company as a complement to its most comparable GAAP measure, and the Company believes that the continuation of this practice increases the consistency and comparability of the Company’s earnings releases. The non-GAAP adjustments, and the basis for excluding them, are discussed further below.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
Non-GAAP Revenues
Non-GAAP revenues include the revenues of the Company’s former New Focus business, which is treated as a discontinued operation in our GAAP financial statements. Management uses this non-GAAP measure to evaluate its performance relative to its previously established financial targets. Specifically, the Company previously reported New Focus in its revenues. The Company believes providing non-GAAP revenues to its investors, in addition to corresponding income statement measures, allows investors to evaluate the Company’s results of operations compared to its previous financial results.
Non-GAAP Gross Margin Rate
Non-GAAP gross margin rate is calculated as gross margin rate as determined in accordance with GAAP (gross profit as a percentage of revenues) excluding non-cash compensation related to stock and options specifically identified in the non-GAAP reconciliation schedules set forth below. The Company evaluates its performance using non-GAAP gross margin rate to assess the Company’s historical and prospective operating financial performance, as well as its operating performance relative to its competitors. Specifically, management uses this non-GAAP measure to further understand the Company’s “core operating performance.” The Company believes its “core operating performance” represents the Company’s on-going performance in the ordinary course of its operations. Accordingly, the Company excludes from “core operating performance” those items such as non-cash compensation related to stock and options; and certain other significant non-recurring one-time charges and credits specifically identified. Management does not believe these items, including recurring non-cash items, are reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and accordingly excludes those items from non-GAAP gross margin rate.
Non-GAAP Operating Income/Loss
Non-GAAP operating income/loss is calculated as operating loss as determined in accordance with GAAP excluding the impact of amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and severance costs, non-cash compensation related to stock and options granted to employees and directors, and certain other one-time charges and credits specifically identified in the non-GAAP reconciliation schedules set forth below. The Company evaluates its performance using, among other things, non-GAAP operating income/loss in evaluating the Company’s historical and prospective operating financial performance, as well as its operating performance relative to its competitors. Specifically, management uses this non-GAAP measure to further understand the Company’s “core operating performance.” The Company believes its “core operating performance” represents the Company’s on-going performance in the ordinary course of its operations. Accordingly, the Company excludes from “core operating performance” those items such as restructuring and severance programs and costs relating to specific major projects which are non-recurring, expenses or income from certain legal actions, settlements and related costs outside our normal course of business, impairment charges, as well as non-cash compensation related to stock and options. Management does not believe these items are reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and accordingly excludes those items from non-GAAP operating loss.
Non-GAAP Net Income/Loss
Non-GAAP net income/loss is calculated as net income/loss excluding the impact of restructuring and severance costs, non-cash compensation related to stock and options granted to employees and directors, income taxes and certain other one-time charges and credits specifically identified in the non-GAAP reconciliation schedules set forth below. The Company uses non-GAAP net income/loss in evaluating the Company’s historical and prospective operating financial performance, as well as its operating performance relative to its competitors. Specifically, management uses this non-GAAP measure to further understand the Company’s “core operating performance.”
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income/loss excluding the impact of taxes, net interest income/expense, depreciation and amortization, net foreign currency translation gains/losses, as well as restructuring and severance, impairment, non-cash compensation related to stock and options, expenses or income from certain legal actions, settlements and related costs outside our normal course of business, and certain other one-time charges and credits specifically identified in the non-GAAP reconciliation schedules set forth below. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the Company’s historical and prospective cash usage, as well as its cash usage relative to its competitors. Specifically, management uses this non-GAAP measure to further understand and analyze the cash used in/generated from the Company’s core operations. The Company believes that by excluding these non-cash and non-recurring charges, more accurate expectations of its future cash needs can be assessed in addition to providing a better understanding of the actual cash used in or generated from core operations for the periods presented. The Company further believes that providing this information allows the Company’s investors greater transparency and a better understanding of the Company’s core cash position.
