Cirrus Logic Reports Q1 FY22 Revenue of $277.3 Million

Content Gains in High-Performance Mixed-Signal Expected to Fuel Strong Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth in Q2 FY22

Cirrus Logic, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRUS) today posted on its website at http://investor.cirrus.com the quarterly Shareholder Letter that contains the complete financial results for the first quarter fiscal year 2022, which ended June 26, 2021, as well as the company’s current business outlook.

“In the past quarter, Cirrus Logic accelerated both sales momentum and execution of our growth strategy. We grew revenue by 14 percent year on year, increased penetration of the Android market, began shipments with a leading laptop OEM, ramped new content in anticipation of product launches in the latter half of the year and advanced the development of a number of new components that are expected to drive future revenue growth,” said John Forsyth, Cirrus Logic president and chief executive officer. “The company’s recent investments in power-related products, including the acquisition of Lion Semiconductor, are expected to meaningfully expand our addressable market and continue the exciting progress we have been making in building new and strategic areas of our business. With a strong pipeline of audio and high-performance mixed-signal products ramping in the coming months, we are upbeat about the next several quarters and continue to anticipate accelerated revenue growth in FY22.”

Reported Financial Results – First Quarter FY22

  • Revenue of $277.3 million;
  • GAAP gross margin of 50.5 percent and non-GAAP gross margin of 50.6 percent;
  • GAAP operating expenses of $120.8 million and non-GAAP operating expenses of $103.1 million; and
  • GAAP earnings per share of $0.29 and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.54.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information is included in the tables accompanying this press release.

Business Outlook – Second Quarter FY22

  • Revenue is expected to range between $430 million and $470 million;
  • GAAP gross margin is forecasted to be between 50 percent and 52 percent; and
  • Combined GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses are anticipated to range between $135 million and $141 million, including approximately $17 million in stock-based compensation expense and $3 million in amortization of acquired intangibles.

The company has entered into a long-term Capacity Reservation and Wafer Supply Commitment Agreement with GlobalFoundries, a foundry partner for many of our strategic products. This will expand our ability to address unprecedented market demand and provide customers with much-needed supply assurance. Given our anticipated strong cash generation, we believe this agreement is a good use of our financial resources: it secures supplier commitments to capacity expansion in support of our sales growth, alleviates some of the supply uncertainty currently affecting the company and its customers, and ensures supplier investment in additional technologies for future products.

Cirrus Logic will host a live Q&A session at 5 p.m. EDT today to answer questions related to its financial results and business outlook. Participants may listen to the conference call on the Cirrus Logic website. Participants who would like to submit a question to be addressed during the call are requested to email investor@cirrus.com.

Use of non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement Cirrus Logic's financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the company has provided non-GAAP financial information, including non-GAAP net income, diluted earnings per share, operating income and profit, operating expenses, gross margin and profit, tax expense, tax expense impact on earnings per share, and effective tax rate. A reconciliation of the adjustments to GAAP results is included in the tables below. Non-GAAP financial information is not meant as a substitute for GAAP results, but is included because management believes such information is useful to our investors for informational and comparative purposes. In addition, certain non-GAAP financial information is used internally by management to evaluate and manage the company. The non-GAAP financial information used by Cirrus Logic may differ from that used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Safe Harbor Statement

Except for historical information contained herein, the matters set forth in this news release contain forward-looking statements including our statements about the company’s expectations for accelerated revenue growth in FY22; our ability to develop products that are expected to drive future revenue growth; our expectation that the company’s recent investments in power-related products, including the acquisition of Lion Semiconductor, will meaningfully expand our addressable market and continue our progress in building new and strategic areas of our business; our belief that the Capacity Reservation and Wafer Supply Commitment Agreement with GlobalFoundries will expand our ability to address unprecedented market demand and provide customers with much-needed supply assurance; our ability to secure supplier commitments to capacity expansion in support of our sales growth and alleviate some of the supply uncertainty currently affecting the company and its customers; and our estimates for the second quarter fiscal year 2022 revenue, gross margin, combined research and development and selling, general and administrative expense levels, stock compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangibles. In some cases, forward-looking statements are identified by words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “project,” “believe,” “goals,” “opportunity,” “estimates,” “intend,” and variations of these types of words and similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to our plans, expectations, strategies or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates, and assumptions and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and readers should not place undue reliance on such statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the effects of the global COVID-19 outbreak and the measures taken to limit the spread of COVID-19, including any disruptions to our business that could result from measures to contain the outbreak that may be taken by governmental authorities in the jurisdictions in which we and our supply chain operate; the susceptibility of the markets we address to economic downturns, including as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and the actions taken to mitigate the spread of COVID-19; the risks of doing business internationally, including increased import/export restrictions and controls (e.g., the effect of the U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security of the U.S. Department of Commerce placing Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. and certain of its affiliates on the Bureau’s Entity List), imposition of trade protection measures (e.g., tariffs or taxes), security and health risks, possible disruptions in transportation networks, and other economic, social, military and geo-political conditions in the countries in which we, our customers or our suppliers operate; recent increased industry-wide capacity constraints that may impact our ability to meet current customer demand, which could cause an unanticipated decline in our sales and damage our existing customer relationships and our ability to establish new customer relationships; the potential for increased prices due to capacity constraints in our supply chain, which, if we are unable to increase our selling price to our customers, could result in lower revenues and margins that could adversely affect our financial results; the level of orders and shipments during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, customer cancellations of orders, or the failure to place orders consistent with forecasts, along with the risk factors listed in our Form 10-K for the year ended March 28, 2021 and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are available at www.sec.gov. The foregoing information concerning our business outlook represents our outlook as of the date of this news release, and we expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new developments or otherwise.
