About this update from Ichor Holdings
FREMONT, Calif. --(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ichor Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: ICHR), a leader in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of critical fluid delivery subsystems and components for semiconductor capital equipment, today announced second quarter 2023 financial results. Second quarter 2023 highlights: Revenues of $185 million , above the mid-point of our guidance range communicated in May; Gross margin of 13.9% on a GAAP basis and 14.5% on a non‑GAAP basis; Earnings per share of $(0.71) on a GAAP basis and $0.02 on a non-GAAP basis; and $27 million of cash flow from operations. "We are pleased to report that Ichor's second quarter results were at the upper end of our expectations, and with our current visibility, we continue to expect modest improvements in demand as we progress through the second half of the year," commented Jeff Andreson , chief executive officer. "While we continue to witness frequent variations in customer forecasts, which provided both accelerations of demand into the second quarter as well as certain areas of incremental strength offsetting other softening segments within our forecast, our full year expectations are fairly consistent with what we discussed a quarter ago. Ichor continues to be focused on supporting our customer requirements while maintaining critical R&D investments to enable our technology roadmap, and we look forward to continuing our focus on developing proprietary new products and winning evaluation programs that will help drive revenue outperformance and strong operating leverage when the demand environment inevitably improves." Q2 2023 Q1 2023 Q2 2022 (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) U.S. GAAP Financial Results: Net sales $ 185,008 $ 225,870 $ 329,560 Gross margin 13.9 % 14.7 % 16.8 % Operating margin (1.6 )% 2.1 % 7.5 % Net income (loss) $ (20,656 ) $ (5 ) $ 21,537 Diluted EPS $ (0.71 ) $ 0.00 $ 0.74 Q2 2023 Q1 2023 Q2 2022 (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) Non-GAAP Financial Results: Gross margin 14.5 % 15.5 % 17.0 % Operating margin 2.9 % 6.1 % 10.0 % Net income $ 707 $ 11,128 $ 28,326 Diluted EPS $ 0.02 $ 0.38 $ 0.98 U.S. GAAP Financial Results Overview For the second quarter of 2023, revenue was $185.0 million , net loss was $(20.7) million , and net loss per basic and diluted share (“diluted EPS”) was $(0.71) . This compares to revenue of $225.9 million and $329.6 million , net income of $0.0 million and $21.5 million , and diluted EPS of $0.00 and $0.74 , for the first quarter of 2023 and second quarter of 2022, respectively. During the second quarter of 2023, we recorded a valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, resulting in a $11.1 million charge to income tax expense. Non-GAAP Financial Results Overview For the second quarter of 2023, non-GAAP net income was $0.7 million and non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.02 . This compares to non-GAAP net income of $11.1 million and $28.3 million , and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.38 and $0.98 , for the first quarter of 2023 and second quarter of 2022, respectively. Third Quarter 2023 Financial Outlook For the third quarter of 2023, we expect revenue to be in the range of $185.0 million to $200.0 million . We expect GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $(0.32) to $(0.20) and non-GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.13 . This outlook for non‑GAAP diluted EPS excludes amortization of intangible assets of approximately $3.6 million and share-based compensation expense of approximately $4.7 million , as well as the related income tax effects. Non-GAAP diluted EPS should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Results We ended the second quarter of 2023 with cash and cash equivalents of $84.6 million , an increase of $15.8 million from the prior quarter and a decrease of $1.9 million from the prior year ended December 30, 2022 . The increase of $15.8 million during the second quarter was primarily due to net cash provided by operating activities of $26.9 million , partially offset by net payments on our credit facilities of $6.9 million and capital expenditures of $4.0 million . The decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to capital expenditures of $10.8 million and net payments on our credit facilities of $8.8 million , partially offset by net cash provided by operating activities of $16.1 million . Our cash provided by operating activities of $16.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisted of net loss of $20.7 million , net non-cash charges of $35.3 million , consisting primarily of deferred income taxes of $10.0 million , depreciation and amortization of $17.1 million , and share-based compensation expense of $7.9 million , and a decrease in our net operating assets and liabilities of $1.4 million . Deferred taxes consists primarily of an $11.1 million charge related to a valuation allowance recorded against our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets in the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in our net operating assets and liabilities of $1.4 million during six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable and inventories of $40.6 million and $17.5 million , respectively, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities of $45.0 million and $11.6 million , respectively. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results In addition to U.S. GAAP results, this press release also contains non-GAAP financial results, including non‑GAAP gross profit, non‑GAAP operating income, non‑GAAP net income, non‑GAAP diluted EPS, and free cash flow. Management uses certain non-GAAP metrics to evaluate our operating and financial results. We believe the presentation of non-GAAP results is useful to investors for analyzing business trends and comparing performance to prior periods, along with enhancing investors’ ability to view our results from management’s perspective. Non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, and net income are defined as: gross profit, operating income, or net income (loss), respectively, excluding (1) amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, and discrete or infrequent charges and gains that are outside of normal business operations, including acquisition-related costs, contract and legal settlement gains and losses, facility shutdown costs, and severance costs associated with reduction-in-force programs, to the extent they are present in gross profit, operating income, and net income, respectively; and (2) the tax impacts associated with these non-GAAP adjustments, as well as non-recurring discrete tax items, including the impact of deferred tax asset valuation allowances. Non-GAAP diluted EPS is defined as non-GAAP net income divided by weighted average diluted ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin are defined as non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP operating income, respectively, divided by net sales. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by or used in operating activities, less capital expenditures. Tables showing these metrics on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, with reconciliation footnotes thereto, are included at the end of this press release. Non-GAAP results have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for our results reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP results differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, both of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP results as a tool for comparison. Because of these limitations, you should consider non-GAAP results alongside other financial performance measures and results presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, in evaluating non-GAAP results, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses such as those that are the subject of adjustments in deriving non-GAAP results and you should not infer from our presentation of non-GAAP results that our future results will not be affected by these expenses or other discrete or infrequent charges and gains that are outside of normal business operations.

This amount represents the release of the step-up to cost of sales as acquired-inventories were sold.

(5) Adjusts U.S. GAAP income tax expense for impact of our non-GAAP adjustments, as defined, including the impacts of excluding share-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets. (6) During the second quarter of 2023, we recorded a valuation allowance of $11.1 million against our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance was recorded based on an assessment of available positive and negative evidence, including an estimate of being in a three-year cumulative loss position in the U.S. by the end of 2023, projections of future taxable income, and other quantitative and qualitative information. We believe adjusting for this discrete tax event is consistent with our non-GAAP financial results policy, which emphasizes current period operating performance and comparability with historical periods.
