PR Newswire (US)
ATLANTA, Oct. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- October 20, 2005.
Scientific- Atlanta, Inc. (NYSE:SFA) today reported fiscal year
2006 first quarter sales of $490.0 million. Net income for the
first quarter was $60.7 million, or $0.39 per share, including
after-tax expenses of $6.4 million related to the expensing of
stock options and $758 thousand related to restructuring and the
mark-to-market adjustment of an investment. Together, these three
items represented $0.05 per share. A Good First Quarter In the
first quarter, Scientific-Atlanta bookings were $457.2 million, an
increase of 15 percent from the first quarter of last year. On a
sequential basis, bookings declined 4 percent. Note that in the
fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005, the company de-booked backlog
valued at $53.5 million related to a customer in Japan. First
quarter subscriber product bookings were $322.6 million, up 6
percent from last year's first quarter but down 10 percent from
last quarter. First quarter transmission product bookings were
$134.7 million, a 45 percent increase from last year and a 12
percent increase sequentially. Transmission bookings included $17.7
million of bookings from SBC Communications Inc. (SBC) related to
its Project Lightspeed. Backlog of $432.7 million was down 2
percent from last year and 7 percent from last quarter. The
year-to-year comparison is skewed by the de-booking of Japanese
orders in the fourth quarter of last year, which was described
earlier. The company ended the quarter with more than 1 million
Explorer(R) digital set-tops in backlog. First quarter sales of
$490.0 million increased 8 percent from last year but decreased 7
percent from last quarter. Sales of subscriber products were $360.8
million, up 8 percent from last year's first quarter and down 13
percent sequentially. In the first quarter, Scientific-Atlanta sold
1.102 million Explorer digital set-tops, an increase of 7 percent
from last year but a decrease of 7 percent sequentially. Shipments
of WebSTAR(TM) cable modems increased 130 percent from last year
and 9 percent sequentially to 957 thousand units. Sales of
transmission products were $129.4 million, up 8 percent from last
year and 13 percent from last quarter. In the quarter,
Scientific-Atlanta received acceptance for a substantial scope of
work for SBC's Project Lightspeed and recognized $19.2 million of
sales. International sales of $134.5 million were the highest in
any quarter in the company's history. On a year-to-year basis,
sales in Europe, Canada and Latin America increased strongly, more
than offsetting lower sales in Asia. Gross margin in the first
quarter was 37.5 percent of sales, an increase of 90 basis points
from last year, primarily due to gross margin improvements in
digital video recorders and higher sales volumes. Compared with
last quarter, Scientific-Atlanta's gross margin declined by 1.4
percentage points. Consistent with the company's comments in July,
the favorability related to the timing of procurement savings
achieved last quarter did not recur in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2006. In addition, a mix shift related to the integration of
third-party products in the SBC contract and lower sales volumes
contributed to the decline in gross margin. These were offset
partially by lower royalty and warranty costs for DVR products and
the receipt of an insurance payment related to inventory losses.
Net income for the first quarter was $60.7 million, or $0.39 per
share, including after-tax expenses of $6.4 million related to the
expensing of stock options and $758 thousand related to
restructuring and the mark-to-market adjustment of an investment.
Together, these three items represented $0.05 per share. Net income
increased by $4.9 million, or 9 percent, compared with last year's
first quarter. Net income increased $26.3 million, or 76 percent,
compared with last quarter, which included after-tax charges of
$42.8 million primarily related to a settlement with Gemstar and a
tentative settlement with the SEC. The effective tax rate for the
quarter was 34 percent. Strong Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Scientific-Atlanta's balance sheet remains very strong. Cash and
short- term investments increased by $27.4 million in the quarter
to $1.549 billion. In the first quarter, cash provided by operating
activities was $27.5 million. During the quarter, the company
contributed $5.7 million to its qualified pension plan. Compared to
last quarter, accounts receivable increased by $31.2 million,
related to the timing of sales in the quarter. Days sales
outstanding increased by nine days to 48 days. Inventory increased
by $16.1 million. Other Highlights In the fiscal first quarter,
Scientific-Atlanta shipped a total of 362 thousand high-definition
(HD) set-tops, including 221 thousand high-definition digital video
recorders. Total HD set-top shipments increased by 50 percent from
last year but declined by 20 percent from last quarter. Digital
video recorder sales of 465 thousand units increased 17 percent
from last year's first quarter, although on a sequential basis,
they declined 14 percent. The company's first DVR product for the
UK market, the Explorer 8300DVB(TM) PVR (personal video recorder),
is well underway. Scientific- Atlanta has delivered approximately
1,000 units to Telewest in support of their field testing, which is
in process. The product that the company is delivering to Telewest
has three video tuners and is the first high-definition cable
set-top in the UK. In support of their upcoming launch, Scientific-
Atlanta has received its first purchase order for 25 thousand units
of this product. Following the end of the quarter, the company
signed an agreement with ntl for the supply of a new DVR set-top in
the UK. This product, called the Explorer 8450DVB(TM) HD PVR, will
include functionality similar to that of the Explorer 8300DVB and
will add support for MPEG-4. Development on this set-top has begun
and is targeted to be completed for a product release in calendar
year 2006. In the quarter, SBC named Scientific-Atlanta as one of
two set-top suppliers for its U-verse TV service, which will be
delivered over the network that SBC is expanding through its
Project Lightspeed. These set-tops will be integrated with the
Microsoft TV IPTV Edition software platform and will support
advanced digital video encoding technologies. Scientific-Atlanta
received acceptance from SBC of the first Super Hub Office, the
Video Operations Center and a Video Hub Office in the first
quarter. These facilities required the integration of hardware and
software products from Scientific-Atlanta as well as switches,
routers, servers and other products from a variety of other
companies. In the quarter, the company announced an agreement to
work with SES AMERICOM on a new IP video service called "IP PRIME."
With the completion of the initial phases, SES AMERICOM will employ
140 Scientific-Atlanta MPEG-4 encoders to deliver its multi-channel
standard-definition service. Summarizing the first quarter results,
Jim McDonald, Scientific-Atlanta Chairman, President and CEO,
concluded, "In summary, we're pleased with a first quarter in which
bookings, sales, and earnings grew from a year ago. We are
encouraged that our growth initiatives with telephone companies and
with international service providers are making substantial
contributions. In addition, we continue to focus on the creation of
innovative new products, including set-tops, video multiplexers and
encoders, that can contribute to our customers' success in the
future. We recognize the need to put our cash to more productive
use. For the past several quarters, we have been unable to
repurchase our shares because we have been in possession of
material non-public information related to certain issues. We
anticipate that we will be able to resolve these issues by the end
of the calendar year." About Scientific-Atlanta Scientific-Atlanta,
