Management
Comments
Commenting on the
third quarter ended September 30, 2022, Anthony Ambrose, President and CEO of
Data I/O Corporation, said, “Our performance in the third quarter was
outstanding as we delivered strong bookings, operating income and cash
generation. For the fourth consecutive quarter, we achieved bookings in excess
of $6.0 million, with third quarter 2022 bookings of $7.1 million reaching the
highest level in the past year, and the highest level for the third quarter in
5 years. Backlog at the end of the 2022 third quarter of $4.9 million was at
the highest level for any third quarter period in the past 10 years.
“We continue to gain
share in automotive. Automotive electronics represented 70% of third quarter
bookings, and 63% of bookings so far this year. We had 4 new customer wins in
automotive and industrial during the third quarter.
“Earlier this week,
we announced VerifyBoostTM technology to support the automotive
memory market. VerifyBoost is a patent pending technology that significantly
improves UFS memory programming times by accelerating the verify portion of the
programming cycle over 4.5x. This is game-changing for our automotive
customers. This technology is available as a license for new and existing
systems with our Lumen®X programmers.
“The Company’s
factories in the U.S. and China are back on track and running at normal
capacity. As expected, we delivered
profitability in adjusted EBITDA and net income, an increase in cash, and a
return to more normal levels for key balance sheet items. With a strong sales funnel and high backlog and
deferred revenue, we are off to a fast start for the fourth quarter. It’s an
exciting time for Data I/O.”
Financial Results
Net
sales in the third quarter of 2022 were $7.2 million, up 7%
as compared with $6.7 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase reflects strength in automotive electronics and
industrial markets, partially offset by the impact of a strong US Dollar. Total
recurring and consumable revenues including adapter sales represented $3.2
million or 44% of total revenues in the third quarter of 2022, up 19% as compared
with $2.7 million or 39% of total revenues in the third quarter 2021 total.
Third
quarter 2022 bookings were $7.1 million, up 11% from $6.4 million in the second
quarter of 2022 and 42% from $5.0 million in the third quarter of the prior
year. Backlog at September 30, 2022 was approximately $4.9 million, down from
$5.8 million at June 30, 2022, and $3.3 million at September 30, 2021.
Additionally, there is approximately $300,000 of deferred systems revenue
anticipated to become revenue in the fourth quarter.
Gross
margin as a percentage of sales was 57.0% in the third quarter of 2022, as
compared to 60.7% in the same period of the prior year. The difference in
gross margin as a percentage of sales is primarily due to currency strength of
the US Dollar, which is up approximately 15% versus the Euro and Yuan.
Total
operating expenses in the third quarter of 2022 of $3.4 million were down
approximately $547,000 or 13.9% as compared to the 2021 period of $3.9
million. R&D expenses were $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2022
compared to $1.7 million in the third quarter of the prior year. Selling, general and administrative
expenses were $2.0 million in
the third quarter of 2022 compared to $2.2 million in the third quarter of the
prior year. The lower
operating expense in the third quarter of 2022 was primarily a result of
disciplined spending, lower incentive compensation and effects of the strong US
Dollar.
Net income in the
third quarter of 2022 was $847,000, or $0.10 per share, compared with net
income of $12,000, or $0.00 per share, in the third quarter of 2021. Included
in net income are foreign currency transaction gain/(loss) of $307,000 in the
third quarter of 2022 and ($26,000) in the third quarter of the prior year.
Adjusted
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which excludes equity compensation, was
$1,431,000 in the third quarter of 2022, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of
$564,000 in the third quarter of 2021.
For the fourth quarter
of 2022, the Company expects to ship the majority of backlog and systems in
deferred revenue as of September 30. The Company also expects relatively flat
currency exchange and flat operating expenses as compared to the third quarter,
with gross margin in the mid 50’s.
Data
I/O’s balance sheet remained strong with cash at the end of the third quarter of 2022 of $11.0 million, up from
$10.3 million at June 30, 2022. The increase in cash primarily reflects operating profitability
and faster collections on increased receivables. Data I/O had net working
capital of $16.5 million at September 30, 2022, up from $15.9 million at the
end of the 2022 second quarter. The Company continues to have no debt.

Forward Looking Statement and Non-GAAP financial
measures
Statements in this news release concerning economic outlook, expected
revenue, expected margins, expected savings, expected results, orders,
deliveries, backlog and financial positions, semiconductor chip shortages,
supply chain expectations, as well as any other statement that may be construed
as a prediction of future performance or events are forward-looking statements
which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which
may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied
by such statements. Forward-looking statement disclaimers also apply to the
global COVID-19 pandemic, including the
expected effects on the Company’s business from Shanghai’s COVID-19 lockdowns,
the duration and scope, impact on the demand for the Company’s products, and
the pace of recovery for the COVID-19 pandemic to subside, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine including any related
international trade restrictions. These factors include uncertainties as to the ability
to record revenues based upon the timing of product deliveries, shipping
availability, installations and acceptance, accrual of expenses, coronavirus
related business interruptions, changes in economic conditions, part shortages
and other risks including those described in the Company's filings on Forms
10-K and 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), press releases
and other communications.
Non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding
equity compensation and impairment & related charges, and Adjusted gross
margin should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of
financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these
non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information
regarding the Company’s results and facilitate the comparison of results.
