BEDFORD, Mass., Feb. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- iRobot Corp. (NASDAQ: IRBT), a leader in delivering robotic technology-based solutions, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 28, 2013.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131104/NE10106LOGO )
"2013 was a great year for iRobot. Our Home Robot business increased 20 percent over 2012, driven by growth in both domestic and overseas markets," said Colin Angle, chairman and chief executive officer of iRobot. "All three of our businesses met our expectations and made significant progress against their strategic plans, setting us up well for 2014.
"In 2014, our financial performance will continue to be driven by our Home Robot business. Home Robot revenue is expected to grow in the mid-to-high teens in 2014 and comprise 90 percent of total company revenue. Our Defense & Security business is expected to perform at 2013 levels, and our Remote Presence business will be shipping product into two markets.
"For 2014, we expect revenue of $560 to $570 million, EPS of between $1.00 and $1.15 and Adjusted EBITDA of $74 to $78 million, or roughly 14 percent of revenue. These expectations are a strong next step in progressing towards our three-year targets of:
- Mid-high teen revenue CAGR,
- High teen Adjusted EBITDA margin and,
- High single digit Operating Cash Flow margin"
Financial Results
- Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $126.3 million, compared with $100.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2012. Revenue for the full year 2013 was $487.4 million, compared with $436.2 million for the full year 2012.
- Net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $3.2 million, compared with a net loss of ($5.9) million for the fourth quarter of 2012. Net income for the full year 2013 was $27.6 million, compared with $17.3 million for full-year 2012.
- Quarterly earnings per share were $0.11, compared with a quarterly loss per share of ($0.21) in the fourth quarter last year. Full-year earnings per share were $0.94, compared with $0.61 last year.
- Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $12.8 million, compared with $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2013 was $62.2 million, compared with $52.5 million for full-year 2012.
Business Highlights
- Full-year domestic Home Robot revenue growth of more than 30 percent, coupled with international Home Robot revenue growth of 14 percent, drove a 20 percent year-over-year increase in full-year Home Robot revenue. We continued to increase our investment in marketing programs in our Home Robot business, which resulted in greater brand awareness and revenue growth in that business.
- We introduced and began shipping the Roomba 800 Series in late 2013. This next-generation floor vacuuming robot incorporates new dirt extractor technology which amplifies suction for superior performance over traditional bristle brushes. The Scooba 450, our newest wet floor scrubbing robot, was introduced and began shipping in January 2014.
- Our Defense & Security business delivered results consistent with our expectations while continuing to reduce reliance on the U.S. Department of Defense.
- We began shipping RP-VITA through InTouch Health into the healthcare market and announced the Ava 500 Video Collaboration Robot which blends together our autonomous navigation capabilities with Cisco's TelePresence. The Ava 500 is targeted for availability from certified Cisco partners in the first half of 2014.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
|||||||||||||
In evaluating its business, iRobot considers and uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of its operating performance. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, merger and acquisition expenses, net intellectual property litigation expenses, restructuring expenses and non-cash stock compensation. The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a measure of financial performance. |
|||||||||||||
The term Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, and is not a measure of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and when assessing the Company's operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation, or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Among other things, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company's actual cash expenditures. Other companies may calculate similar measures differently than iRobot, limiting their usefulness as comparative tools. iRobot compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally. |
