XPER - Xperi Holding Corporation Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results

August, 08 2022 04:05 PM Xperi Corporation

Company achieved significant milestones on growth strategy

T ax free separation into two companies expected in the fall

Xperi Holding Corporation (NASDAQ: XPER) (the “Company”, “Xperi” or “we”) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

“We are excited with the progress we made against our strategic initiatives across the business,” said Jon Kirchner, chief executive officer of Xperi. “During the quarter, we signed key license agreements in our IP business and appointed Paul Davis as president of Adeia. In our Product business, we saw accelerating engagement and design wins in automotive, signed our first TV customer for TiVo OS, and further advanced our TV OS market position with the acquisition of Vewd. With its leading European media platform, Vewd gives Xperi access to an installed footprint of approximately 15 million devices that can be enabled for monetization and advances our growth strategy in the TV space as we prepare for separation and operation as a stand-alone product company.”

“Our IP business had a strong second quarter, highlighted by the signing of a long-term renewal with a leading consumer electronics and OTT service provider for both our media and semiconductor IP portfolios. The transaction demonstrates the strength of our combined IP business and the increasing relevance of our portfolio beyond traditional Pay-TV” said Paul Davis, president of Adeia. “We are also thrilled to have Keith Jones join as Adeia’s chief financial officer. Keith’s industry knowledge, expertise, and leadership are a great fit for Adeia. The expansion of the management team and the strong business momentum in the first half position Adeia well for the upcoming separation this fall.”

Revenue of $234.0 million for the quarter, increased 5% compared to $222.3 million for the second quarter of 2021
- IP licensing revenue of $107.8 million

Change in Non-GAAP EPS Calculation

Beginning this quarter, to conform more closely with standard practices for non-GAAP measures, the Company will no longer use cash tax to calculate non-GAAP EPS. Instead, the Company will adjust GAAP income tax to reflect the net direct and indirect income tax effects of the various non-GAAP pretax adjustments. Non-GAAP tax for the remainder of fiscal year 2022 is estimated to be approximately 13% of non-GAAP profit before tax.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s financial results, forecasts, business outlook, the anticipated business separation timing, and the expected launch dates of TiVo OS and single camera OMS in-car safety feature. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business, financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “could,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “may,” “would,” “might,” “potentially,” “estimate,” “continue,” “expect,” “target,” similar expressions or the negatives of these words or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and are not guarantees of future results. These and other forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any such statements and caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenue, cost savings, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, business strategies, and expansion and growth of the Company’s businesses; the Company’s ability to implement its business strategy; pricing trends, including the Company’s ability to achieve economies of scale; the ability of the Company to retain and hire key personnel; uncertainty as to the long-term value of the Company’s common stock; legislative, regulatory and economic developments affecting the Company’s business; general economic and market developments and conditions; the evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes under which the Company operates; unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism or outbreak of war or hostilities, including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and natural disasters; the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, including measures taken in response to the pandemic, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted; the impact of supply chain constraints on our customers; and the planned separation of the Company’s IP and Product businesses. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the business, are more fully discussed in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors presented in the Company’s filings with the SEC are, considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or trading price of common stock. The Company does not assume any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the Company’s earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures adjusted for either one-time or ongoing non-cash acquired intangibles amortization charges; costs related to actual or planned business combinations including transaction fees, integration costs, severance, facility closures, and retention bonuses; separation costs; all forms of stock-based compensation; loss on debt extinguishment; expensed debt refinancing costs and related tax effects. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures used in this release provide investors with important perspectives into the Company’s ongoing business and financial performance and provide a better understanding of our core operating results reflecting our normal business operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in that the non-GAAP financial measures we use may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the terms used in this press release, such as non-GAAP Operating Expenses, do not have a standardized meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to other companies. We seek to compensate for the limitation of our non-GAAP presentation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures in the tables attached hereto. Investors are encouraged to review the related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. All financial data is presented on a GAAP basis except where the Company indicates its presentation is on a non-GAAP basis.

Set forth below are reconciliations of the Company’s reported and forecasted GAAP to non-GAAP financial metrics.
