Cascade Microtech, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCD) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Financial summary from the third quarter:

Operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 were as follows:

  • Quarterly revenue of $27.4 million.
    • Compared to the same quarter of 2011, revenue increased 15%, with growth posted in all product lines.
    • Compared to Q2 2012, revenue was down less than 1%.
    • Probes segment set an all time quarterly record of $10.0 million in Q3 2012.
  • Gross margin of 45%, compared to 46% in Q2 2012, down slightly due to product mix.

    • Systems segment gross margin declined from 41% in Q2 2012 to 39% in Q3 2012.
  • Operating expenses were similar to Q2 2012 at $10.5 million.
    • Research and development expenses increased by $0.3 million. Increased new product development expenses were offset by $0.2 million of government research grants.
    • Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $0.4 million due primarily to lower selling costs, stock-based compensation expenses and amortization.
  • Income from operations of $1.8 million, a decrease of $0.5 million from Q2 2012.
  • Depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expenses for Q3 2012 totaled $1.4 million.
  • Net income of $1.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share.
  • Book-to-bill ratio as of September 30, 2012 of .9 to 1.
  • Cash and investments increased $4.2 million from Q2 2012 and totaled $24.1 million due to continued income from operations and working capital changes.

"Cascade Microtech posted continued good financial results in the third quarter of 2012 with revenue in-line with guidance, and earnings per share at the top end of our guidance at $0.10. This level of profitability was achieved after we increased our investments in R&D for our new product development, and we are on track to announce our third new product, with prototyping planned for completion in the fourth quarter. 2012 has shown a marked improvement over 2011 for Cascade Microtech, and we expect this to continue through Q4," said Michael Burger, President and CEO.

Financial outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2012, revenue is expected to be in the range of $27.0 million to $30.0 million. GAAP earnings per share guidance is being raised from the previous quarter and is expected to be in the range of $0.08 to $0.12 on a fully-diluted basis, assuming no significant one-time charges or changes in foreign currency rates. The EPS guidance includes continued investments in new product development costs including the prototyping of new systems, as previously announced.

The company will host a conference call beginning at 2:00 p.m. PDT (5:00 p.m. EDT) on Tuesday, October 30, 2012, to discuss its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
