Intevac Announces Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 11, 2024-- Intevac, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVAC) today reported financial results for the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2024.

“We are pleased to report third-quarter results favorable to our expectations going into the quarter,” commented Nigel Hunton, president and chief executive officer. “Technology upgrades in support of next-generation HAMR (heat-assisted magnetic recording) media continue to drive the majority of our business, and total revenues from HDD upgrades, spares, and field service totaled over $13 million, exceeding our expectations. With an additional $15 million of largely pass-through revenue associated with the transfer of inventory to a customer, the gross margin and earnings per share performance of the core business likewise exceeded expectations. Positive free cash flow performance in the quarter drove an increase in total cash, restricted cash, and investments to over $72 million at quarter-end, and we remain on track to maintain the strength of the balance sheet in 2024 to enable strategic investments in support of future growth.”

Operating expenses were $8.8 million, compared to $8.4 million in the third quarter of 2023. The operating loss was $1.8 million compared to $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2023.

The net loss for the quarter was $2.2 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Intevac’s non-GAAP results exclude the impact, where applicable, of restructuring charges and discontinued operations. A reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided in the financial tables included in this release.

Management uses non-GAAP results to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance in light of business objectives and for planning purposes. These measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Intevac believes these measures enhance investors’ ability to review the Company’s business from the same perspective as the Company’s management and facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
