05/04/2022

  • Net revenue of $395.4 million
  • GAAP gross margin of 42.3%; Non-GAAP gross margin of 49.5%
  • GAAP operating margin of 11.8%; Non-GAAP operating margin of 26.5%

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Lumentum Holdings Inc. ("Lumentum" or the "Company") today reported results for its fiscal third quarter ended April 2, 2022.

"Our results were at the high end of our guidance on all metrics in the third quarter due to solid execution on a global basis," said Alan Lowe, President and CEO.  "Demand for our products continues to accelerate, and we now expect demand to outpace component supplies by more than $100 million in the fourth quarter.  Our fourth quarter revenue is expected to increase from the third quarter, primarily driven by Telecom product shipments."

Mr. Lowe added, "I am highly optimistic about our outlook and believe market inflections beneficial to Lumentum in our addressable markets will drive double-digit revenue growth in fiscal 2023 and beyond."

Fiscal Third Quarter Highlights:

Net revenue for the fiscal third quarter of 2022 was $395.4 million, with GAAP net income of $26.0 million, or $0.35 per diluted share. Net revenue for the fiscal second quarter of 2022 was $446.7 million, with GAAP net income of $56.7 million, or $0.75 per diluted share. Net revenue for the fiscal third quarter of 2021 was $419.5 million, with GAAP net income of $225.5 million, or $2.85 per diluted share. 

Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal third quarter of 2022 was $88.9 million, or $1.19 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal second quarter of 2022 was $120.2 million, or $1.60 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal third quarter of 2021 was $99.7 million, or $1.26 per diluted share.

The Company held $2,564.1 million in total cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments at the end of the fiscal third quarter of 2022, up $541.7 million from the end of the fiscal second quarter of 2022. In March 2022, we issued $861.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 0.50% Convertible Notes due in 2028 ("the 2028 Notes"). The net proceeds from the sale of the 2028 Notes were $854.1 million, after deducting $6.9 million in issuance costs. Concurrent with the issuance of the 2028 Notes, we used $200.0 million of the net proceeds to repurchase 2.0 million shares of our common stock in privately negotiated transactions.  Cash from operations for the fiscal third quarter of 2022 was $76.6 million.  Additionally, we used $124.0 million to repurchase 1.3 million shares of our common stock.

The tables above provide comparisons of quarterly results to prior periods, including sequential quarterly and year-over-year changes. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP measures is contained in this release under the section titled "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Business Outlook

Lumentum expects the following for the fiscal fourth quarter 2022:

  • Net revenue in the range of $405 million to $430 million
  • Non-GAAP operating margin of 26.5% to 28.0%
  • Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.25 to $1.40

We have not provided reconciliations from GAAP to non-GAAP measures for our outlook. A large portion of non-GAAP adjustments, such as restructuring charges, stock-based compensation, non-cash income tax expense and credits, integration and acquisition related costs, inventory write down due to plans to exit certain product lines and other costs and contingencies unrelated to current and future operations are by their nature highly volatile and we have low visibility as to the range that may be incurred in the future.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, Lumentum provides investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures: gross profit, gross margin, research and development expense, selling, general and administrative expense, operating margin, income from operations, interest and other income (expense), net, income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, net income, and net income per share on a non-GAAP basis, as well as the non-GAAP measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Lumentum believes this non-GAAP financial information provides additional insight into the Company's ongoing business operations and results, as well as cash generation, and has therefore chosen to provide this information to investors for a more consistent basis of comparison and to help them evaluate the results of the Company's ongoing operations and enable more meaningful period to period comparisons. In addition, the Company believes that providing certain of these measures allows investors to better understand the Company's cash flows and, importantly, to evaluate the efficacy of the methodology and information used by management to evaluate and measure such cash flows. However, these measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release should not be considered in isolation from measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. In particular, many of the adjustments to our GAAP financial measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measurements reported by other companies.

Our non-GAAP measures used in this press release exclude (i) stock-based compensation, (ii) gain on sale of product lines, (iii) integration related costs, (iv) inventory and fixed asset write down due to product line exits, (v) amortization of acquired intangibles, (vi) restructuring and related charges, (vii) merger termination fee related to our terminated Agreement with Coherent, (viii) foreign exchange (gains) losses, net, (ix) non-cash interest expense on convertible notes, (x) income tax impacts, and (xi) other (gains) charges related to non-recurring activities.

A quantitative reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial data with respect to historical periods is included in the supplemental financial table attached to this press release.

(1) Other (gains) charges excluded from gross profit for the three months ended April 2, 2022 primarily relate to $5.8 million of charges to acquire components from various brokers to satisfy customer demand.


Other (gains) charges excluded from gross profit for the nine months ended April 2, 2022 primarily relate to a $5.9 million gain from equipment sales in connection with transferring product lines to new production facilities offset by $5.8 million of charges to acquire components from various brokers to satisfy customer demand.


(2) Other charges excluded from selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended April 2, 2022 primarily include $1.2 million of legal and advisory fees related to the pending acquisition of NeoPhotonics and $3.1 million of professional service fees related to optimizing our international legal structure.


Other charges excluded from selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended April 2, 2022 primarily include $6.7 million of legal and advisory fees related to the pending acquisition of NeoPhotonics and $6.6 million of professional service fees related to optimizing our international legal structure.


(3) In order to give a more meaningful perspective of our tax burden over a longer-term period, and in accordance with the SEC Non-GAAP Financial Measures Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, beginning in fiscal fourth quarter 2021, Lumentum changed its method of calculating its non-GAAP income tax provision.  This change in methodology does not affect the Company's non-GAAP operating profit, annual cash tax payments, or cash flows, but results in higher reported non-GAAP tax provisions. As such, income tax adjustments have been revised for the three and nine months ended April 3, 2021 in order to be comparable.
