Allegro MicroSystems Announces Results for the Second Fiscal Quarter Ended
September 25, 2020
--Strong Growth and Solid Operating Results--

Manchester, NH, November 19, 2020 – Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. (“Allegro” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:ALGM), a global leader in power and sensing semiconductor solutions for motion control and energy efficient systems, today announced financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended September 25, 2020. Total net sales for the three-month period ended September 25, 2020 was $136.6 million, an increase of 18.8% from the prior quarter, demonstrating strong revenue recovery.

“Our business turned a corner in the second fiscal quarter, rebounding off the lows related to the pandemic and showing a quick recovery in our key markets in automotive and industrial where we believe we continue to gain market share,” said Ravi Vig, President and CEO of Allegro MicroSystems. “While uncertainty remains, we have our eye on our long-term opportunities and believe we are in the sweet spot of the convergence of growth trends in automotive, Industry 4.0, data center and green energy, positioning us to take full advantage of a market recovery.”

Business Summary

Automotive revenue was up 17.2% sequentially during the second quarter driven by global auto production growth and also strength in the Company’s xEV business, which nearly doubled from the three-month period ended September 27, 2019. During the second fiscal quarter, the Company completed its strategic acquisition of Voxtel, a privately held company specializing in advanced photonics and 3D imaging technology including components for long-range, eye-safe Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR). This acquisition brings together Voxtel’s laser and imaging expertise with Allegro’s automotive leadership and scale to enable what the Company believes will be the next generation of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).

Industrial revenue in the second quarter was up 19.7% year-over-year compared to the same prior year fiscal period and 6.1% sequentially due to continued strength in demand for the Company’s three-phase drivers in data centers. The Company’s “Other” business, which represents non-strategic markets, including white goods, desktop computing, printers and peripherals, benefited in part from COVID-related demand for these products.

Business Outlook

For the third fiscal quarter ending December 25, 2020, the Company expects total net sales to be in the range of $147 million to $151 million, with both the Automotive and Industrial businesses growing from the second fiscal quarter. Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be in the range of 50% - 51%, and non-GAAP earnings per fully-diluted share for the same period is expected to be in the range of $0.11 to $0.12. This guidance is based on an estimated approximate 189.4 million fully-diluted shares outstanding.

Allegro has not provided a reconciliation of its third fiscal quarter outlook for non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP earning per fully-diluted share because estimates of all of the reconciling items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts. It is difficult to reasonably provide a forward-looking estimate between such forward-looking non-GAAP measures and the comparable forward-looking GAAP measures. Certain factors that are materially significant to Allegro’s ability to estimate these items are out of its control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, including with respect to transaction fees, stock compensation charges, facility closing and consolidation costs, deferred financing costs associated with the repayment of at least 75% of the Company’s $325 million term loan, a pre-IPO $400 million dividend; and the tax consequences of each of these events.

Earnings Webcast




A webcast will be held on Thursday, November 19, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time. Ravi Vig, Chief Executive Officer and Paul Walsh, Chief Financial Officer, will discuss Allegro’s financial results.

The webcast will be available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at investors.allegromicro.com. A recording of the webcast will be posted in the same location and will be available shortly after the call concludes and will be available for at least 30 days.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we regularly review other metrics, defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends, prepare financial forecasts and make strategic decisions. The key metrics we consider are non-GAAP Gross Profit, non-GAAP Gross Margin, non-GAAP Operating Expenses, non-GAAP Operating Expenses, non-GAAP Profit before Tax, non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, non-GAAP Net Income, non-GAAP Net Income per Share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”). These non-GAAP Financial Measures provide supplemental information regarding our operating performance on a non-GAAP basis that excludes certain gains, losses and charges of a non-cash nature or that occur relatively infrequently and/or that management considers to be unrelated to our core operations, and in the case of non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, management believes that this non-GAAP measure of income taxes provides it with the ability to evaluate the non-GAAP Provision for Income Taxes across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items and discrete items, which may vary in size and frequency. By presenting these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, we provide a basis for comparison of our business operations between periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, and we believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by our presenting these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, as they provide a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. Management believes that tracking and presenting these Non-GAAP Financial Measures provides management and the investment community with valuable insight into matters such as: our ongoing core operations, our ability to generate cash to service our debt and fund our operations; and the underlying business trends that are affecting our performance and evaluating companies in our industry. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are used by both management and our board of directors, together with the comparable GAAP information, in evaluating our current performance and planning our future business activities. In particular, management finds it useful to exclude non-cash charges in order to better correlate our operating activities with our ability to generate cash from operations and to exclude certain cash charges as a means of more accurately predicting our liquidity requirements. We believe that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, when used in conjunction with our GAAP financial information, also allow investors to better evaluate our financial performance in comparison to other periods and to other companies in our industry.

These Non-GAAP Financial Measures have significant limitations as analytical tools. Some of these limitations are that:

such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
such measures exclude certain costs which are important in analyzing our GAAP results;
such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
such measures do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
such measures do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future;
such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
other companies in our industry may calculate such measures differently than we do, thereby further limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are supplemental measures of our performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered as substitutes for GAAP financial measures such as gross profit, gross margin, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Also, in the future we may incur expenses or charges such as those added back in the calculation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Our presentation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

Our prior disclosure referred to non-GAAP Gross Profit and non-GAAP Gross Margin as Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin, respectively. No changes have been made to how we calculate these measures.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross Margin



We calculate non-GAAP Gross Profit and non-GAAP Gross Margin excluding the items below from cost of revenues in applicable periods and we calculate and non-GAAP Gross Margin as non-GAAP Gross Profit divided by total net sales.

PSL and Sanken Distribution Agreement - Represents the elimination of inventory cost amortization and foundry service payment related to one-time costs incurred in connection with the disposition of Polar Semiconductor, LLC (“PSL”) during the second fiscal quarter ended September 25, 2020 (the “PSL Divestiture”)
Stock-based compensation - Represents non-cash expenses arising from the grant of stock awards
AMTC Facility consolidation one-time costs - Represents one-time costs incurred in connection with closing of our manufacturing facility in Thailand (the “AMTC Facility”) and transitioning of test and assembly functions to the our manufacturing facility in the Philippines (the “AMPI Facility”) announced in fiscal year 2020 consisting of: moving equipment between facilities, contract terminations and other non-recurring charges. The closure and transition of the AMTC Facility is expected to be substantially complete by the end of March 2021. These costs are in addition to, and not duplicative of, the adjustments noted in note (*) below.
Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets - Represents non-cash expenses associated with the amortization of intangible assets in connection with the acquisition of Voxtel, Inc., which closed in August 2020.
COVID-19 related expenses - Represents expenses attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic primarily related to increased purchases of masks, gloves and other protective materials, and overtime premium compensation paid for maintaining 24-hour service at the AMPI Facility.

(*) Non-GAAP Gross Profit and the corresponding calculation of non-GAAP Gross Margin in this release do not include adjustments consisting of:

Additional AMTC related costs - Represents costs relating to the closing of the AMTC Facility and the transitioning of test and assembly functions to the AMPI Facility in the Philippines announced in fiscal year 2020 consisting of: the net savings expected to result from the movement of work to the AMPI Facility, which facility had duplicative capacity based on the buildouts of the AMPI Facility in fiscal years 2019 and 2018. The elimination of these costs did not reduce our production capacity and therefore did not have direct effects on our ability to generate revenue. The closure and transition of the AMTC Facility is expected to be substantially complete by the end of March 2021.
Out of period adjustment for depreciation expense of GMR assets - Represents a one-time depreciation expense related to the correction of an immaterial error, related to 2017, for certain manufacturing assets that have reached the end of their useful lives.

Non-GAAP Operating Expenses, non-GAAP Operating Income and non-GAAP Operating Margin

We calculate non-GAAP Operating Expenses and non-GAAP Operating Income excluding the same items excluded above to the extent they are classified as operating expenses, and also excluding the items below in applicable periods. We calculate non-GAAP Operating Margin as non-GAAP Operating Income divided by total net sales.
