OSIS OSI Systems Inc

OSI Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:OSIS), a vertically integrated provider of specialized electronics products for critical applications in the Security and Healthcare industries, today announced its financial results for its first quarter ended September 30, 2008. The Company reported revenues of $148.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009, an increase of 13% from the $131.0 million reported for the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 was $0.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(2.1) million, or $(0.12) per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal 2008. The results for the first quarter ended September 30, 2008 and the prior comparable period of fiscal 2008 included non-recurring restructuring charges of $0.8 million compared to $0.1 million for the comparable period of fiscal 2008. Excluding the impact of the aforementioned non-recurring charges, net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 would have been approximately $0.7 million or $0.04 per diluted share compared to a net loss of $(2.0) million or $(0.12) per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal 2008. These non-GAAP figures are provided to allow for the comparison of underlying earnings, net of non-recurring charges, providing insight into the on-going operations of the Company. The Company�s backlog as of September 30, 2008, was approximately $231 million, compared to $212 million as of June 30, 2008. For the comparable period, the backlog for the Company�s Security division increased by $26 million to $141 million. For the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company generated cash flow from operations of $14.7 million and capital expenditures were $2.2 million, as compared to cash flow from operations using $3.6 million and capital expenditures of $2.6 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Deepak Chopra, OSI Systems� Chairman and CEO, stated, �Revenue growth for the first quarter was driven primarily by strong performances in our Security and Optoelectronics divisions which grew 20% and 23% respectively. For the quarter our Security division achieved record bookings of approximately $94 million improving our backlog to near record levels. Mr. Chopra continued, �For the quarter, sales in our Healthcare division declined 3% when compared to the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. The decline was a direct result of the tightening credit markets within North America causing customers to delay planned orders. Internationally, however, our Healthcare division sales remain strong. We continue to be diligent in monitoring the market conditions within North America as it relates to our Healthcare division and have begun to implement proactive measures to address our overall cost structure. Mr. Chopra concluded, �Within our Security division we have made significant announcements of late. Firstly, we were awarded a $3 million contract for air cargo inspection systems. This was the first contract award we have received related to the U.S. government mandate for 100% inspection of all air cargo by August 2010. Additionally, today we announced receipt of an approximate $6 million development and delivery contract from the TSA for our next generation high-speed CT system for checked baggage screening.� Company Outlook � Guidance for Fiscal 2009 Due to significant levels of economic uncertainty within the credit markets in North America, the Company is unable to provide guidance for fiscal 2009 and as such has withdrawn its previously published guidance for fiscal 2009. Alan Edrick, Executive Vice President and CFO, stated, �We remain confident in our long run business fundamentals. While our healthcare division has been impacted by economic conditions in the Unites States and the challenging credit markets, we are moving quickly to address our overall cost structure. Overall our�liquidity position�remains strong and in the first quarter we generated $12.5 million of free cash flow, a record for the Company.� Conference Call Information OSI Systems, Inc. will host a conference call and simultaneous webcast over the Internet beginning at 9:00 a.m. PT (12:00 p.m. ET) today to discuss its financial and business results for the first quarter of fiscal 2009.
