TechFaith Reports Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results
BEIJING, Aug. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- China TechFaith Wireless Communication Technology Limited (NASDAQ: CNTF) ("TechFaith" or the "Company") today announced unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.
For the second quarter of 2013, TechFaith reported net revenue of US$30.2 million, an increase of 6.8% compared to US$28.2 million in the previous quarter. Revenue in the second quarter of 2013 derived from the Company's Original Developed Product (ODP) was US$20.1 million compared to US$14.5 million in the first quarter of 2013 and US$13.5 million in the second quarter of 2012. Revenue from the Company's Game segment was US$1.6 million compared to US$3.4 million in the prior quarter and US$7.2 million in the second quarter of 2012. Revenue in the second quarter of 2013 from the Company's Brand name phone sales segment was US$8.4 million compared to US$10.3 million in the first quarter of 2013 and US$11.8 million in the second quarter of 2012.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2013 was US$3.4 million compared to US$4.6 million in the previous quarter and US$7.3 million in the second quarter of 2012. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2013 was 11% compared to 16% in the previous quarter and 23% compared to the second quarter of 2012. Net loss attributed to TechFaith for the second quarter of 2013 was US$0.97 million or US$0.02 loss per basic and diluted weighted average outstanding ADS, compared to net income of US$0.3 million or US$0.01 per basic and diluted weighted average outstanding ADS in the previous quarter and a net loss of US$0.7 million or US$0.01 loss per basic and diluted weighted average outstanding ADS in the second quarter of 2012.
Ms. Ouyang Yuping, TechFaith's Chief Financial Officer, said, "While revenue for the second quarter was in line with our guidance, our gross margin was lower than expected as a result of the negative impact of competitions from the market. We would expect to see improvement in our gross margin in the third quarter. Demand in our ODP business was able to offset declines in both our Brand name phone sales and game business. This volatility is a continuation of the difficult business environment we have been navigating, with high competition in both domestic and international markets, shorter product lifecycles and lower average selling prices. While our balance of cash and cash equivalents remained robust at US$257.7 million it reflects a decline of about US$3.5 million compared to the prior quarter. The slight decline is primarily due to capital expenditure on equipment and facility constructions."
Mr. Deyou Dong, President and Chief Operating Officer of TechFaith, said, "We continue to see demand for our popular ruggedized phones. As a result, we launched several new models this year, and have received positive feedback. We are optimistic that shipments for the new ruggedized models will increase over the next few quarters given the uniqueness of the integrated hardware and software. The phone meets demands from a specific segment of the market and allows us to have more stability over our pricing. We are working to leverage our success with the ruggedized line into other niche models where market demand is not being presently met. We also continue to draw on our expertise to provide customized enterprise solutions for our customers and continue to develop our 17Fox brand in the domestic China market. In line with this strategy, we acquired some additional application software during the second quarter."
Mr. Defu Dong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TechFaith, said, "The market remains highly competitive with new features quickly adopted by other handset developers. Our focus on niche opportunities gives us a more defensible market position but the unit volumes are much lower than those in popular mass market designs. This makes it critical that we maintain close relationships with our customers in order to meet their changing needs. We are confident that we can be successful in our approach but do not expect to see a rebound in our revenue to our higher historical levels over the near-term. Rather, we are focusing on driving improved profitability at the lower revenue level, and further strengthening our balance sheet. We also remain optimistic about the development of our facilities, which remain on track, as seen by the increased asset level on our balance sheet in terms of construction in progress and property value held."
Third Quarter of 2013 Outlook
The forecast below is TechFaith's current and preliminary view, which is subject to change. TechFaith currently expects total revenues for the third quarter of 2013 to be in the range of US$29.0 million to US$33.0 million.
