MagnaChip Reports Revenue of $205.1 Million in Second Quarter 2019; OLED Display Drivers, Power Standard Products Set Revenue Records

-- Q2 revenue exceeds updated guidance as OLED, Power and Foundry Show Double-Digit Sequential Growth --

SEOUL, South Korea and SAN JOSE, Calif., July 30, 2019 — (PRNewswire) —  MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation (NYSE: MX) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2019.

Q2 2019 Summary

Third Quarter 2019 Business Outlook
For the third quarter of 2019, MagnaChip anticipates:

CEO YJ Kim comments on Q2
Revenue of $205.1 million increased 30.4% sequentially from Q1, as results in each of our three business lines surpassed expectations in Q2. Our OLED and Power businesses each achieved record revenue, driven by robust customer demand for our low-power display drivers and high-voltage Power standard products. The Foundry business showed resilience in a tough macroeconomic environment, with revenue increasing sharply from Q1.

At the end of April on our Q1 earnings call, we provided Q2 revenue guidance of $173-181 million, and a range for gross profit margin of 16-18%. When it became evident that we were on track to significantly exceed the high end of the guidance range, we provided an updated guidance on June 11 for revenue of at least $194 million and gross margin of at least 21%.

Gross profit margin of 21.4% in Q2 met the updated guidance and our total revenue of $205.1 million during the same period significantly exceeded the updated guidance. The better-than-expected revenue performance was due to stronger-than-expected customer demand across the board and throughout the quarter. OLED revenue increased 50.4% sequentially, Power increased 13.5% and Foundry increased 28.1%, all as compared to Q1 2019.

Our OLED business benefited from the launch of six new OLED smartphones in Asia. We also secured four new design wins. Our 40-nm display driver accounted for the majority of our OLED revenue in Q2 but our industry leading 28-nm display driver now has entered mass production and will be a key revenue driver going forward. The pickup in revenue from the Power business reflected healthy demand from television, industrial and smartphone markets, with our Premium products accounting for over half of Power revenue. The improvement in the Foundry business reflected increased customer demand, primarily for applications in the computer and consumer end markets, and also from smartphones.

As for the strategic evaluation of the Foundry business and Fab 4, I'm encouraged by where we are in the ongoing process. Our decisions regarding the outcome of the strategic evaluation process will be guided by what the Board and management consider to be the best available path to improve MagnaChip's profitability and to maximize shareholder value.

CFO Jonathan Kim comments on Q2
Gross profit margin of 21.4% met our updated guidance provided in mid-June, and was significantly higher than the guidance range of 16-18% provided at the end of April. The improvement in gross profit margin was due primarily to higher fab utilization as a result of a significant increase in Foundry loading and revenue during Q2, and despite a reserve of $2.2 million related to a legacy display product. Our cash balance increased in Q2 to $123.8 million from $105.8 million in Q1, and inventories declined sequentially. We generated net operating cash flow of $28.8 million in Q2 and $17.2 million in the first half of 2019.

Second Quarter Financial Review
Total Revenue
Total revenue in the second quarter of 2019 was $205.1 million, up 2.7% as compared to reported revenue of $199.7 million from the second quarter of 2018, and up 30.4% from $157.4 million in the first quarter of 2019.

Segment Revenue
Foundry Services Group revenue in the second quarter was $73.1 million, down 9.7% from the second quarter of 2018, and up 28.1% sequentially. Standard Products Group revenue in the second quarter was $132 million, up 11.2% from the second quarter of 2018, and up 31.6% sequentially.

Total Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Total gross profit in the second quarter of 2019 was $43.8 million or 21.4% as a percentage of revenue, as compared with gross profit of $53.9 million or 27% in the second quarter of 2018, and $22.7 million or 14.4% in the first quarter of 2019.

Segment Gross Profit Margin
Foundry Services Group gross profit margin was 16.7% as compared with 27.4% in the second quarter of 2018 and 6.4% in the first quarter of 2019. The sequential improvement in Foundry Services Group's gross profit margin was primarily due to an increase in fab loading and Foundry revenue. The Standard Products Group gross profit margin was 23.9% in the second quarter of 2019 as compared with 26.6% in the second quarter of 2018 and 19% in the first quarter of 2019.  The sequential improvement in Standard Product Group's gross profit margin was primarily due to an increase in fab loading and increase in our OLED revenues.

Operating Income, Net Income, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA
Operating income of $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2019 compared to operating income of $13.9 million in the second quarter of 2018 and an operating loss of $18.3 million in the first quarter of 2019.

Net loss, on a GAAP basis, was $9.5 million or $0.28 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2019 as compared with a net loss of $21.5 million or $0.62 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2018 and net loss of $34.1 million or $1.00 per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of 2019.

Adjusted Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure, totaled $2.9 million or $0.08 per basic and diluted share in the second quarter of 2019, as compared to Adjusted Net Income of $8.9 million or $0.26 per basic share and $0.23 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2018 and Adjusted Net Loss of $19.9 million or $0.58 per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $17.0 million or 8.3% of revenue in the second quarter of 2019, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $23.5 million or 11.8% of revenue in the second quarter of 2018, and Adjusted EBITDA of negative $5.7 million or negative 3.6% of revenue in the first quarter of 2019.

Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, can provide a meaningful understanding of the factors and trends affecting MagnaChip's business and operations and assist in evaluating our core operating performance. However, such non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net income or as a better indicator of our operating performance than measures that are presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP results is included in this press release.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $123.8 million in the second quarter of 2019, up from $105.8 million in the first quarter of 2019.

We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as supplemental measures of our performance.

EBITDA for the periods indicated is defined as net loss before interest expense, net, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. We prepare Adjusted Net Income (Loss) by adjusting net loss to eliminate the impact of a number of non-cash expenses and other items that may be either one time or recurring that we do not consider to be indicative of our core ongoing operating performance. We believe that Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is particularly useful because it reflects the impact of our asset base and capital structure on our operating performance. We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) for the periods as net loss, adjusted to exclude (i) Restructuring and other charges, (ii) Equity-based compensation expense, (iii) Foreign currency loss, net, (iv) Derivative valuation loss, net, (v) Loss on early extinguishment of long-term borrowings, net and (vi) Others.
