Sequential Revenue Growth of 37%
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Jan. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MIPS Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:MIPS), today reported financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2005. Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by $4.4 million compared to the prior quarter ending September 30, 2005, the result of solid licensing activity and increases in royalties.
Total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was $16.4 million, an increase of 5 percent compared to $15.5 million for the same quarter a year ago. Royalties were $8.9 million, an increase of 18 percent compared to $7.6 million in the same quarter a year ago. Contract revenue was $7.4 million, a decrease of 6 percent compared to $7.9 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2005. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 on a generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") basis was $2.4 million compared to a net income of $3.5 million for the same quarter a year ago. GAAP net income per share on a diluted basis for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was $0.05 compared to a net income per share of $0.08 for the same quarter a year ago.
Beginning in the September 2005 quarter, the Company recognized equity- based compensation expense pursuant to the fair value method under SFAS 123R. This expense for the second quarter ending December 31, 2005 was $2.1 million. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2006, which excludes the effect of the stock option expense was $4.3 million or $0.10 per diluted share compared to net income of $3.5 million or $0.08 per share for the same quarter a year ago. A reconciliation of non-GAAP adjustments is summarized in the tables below.
"We are pleased with our second quarter results and the return to more normal levels of licensing activity," said Merv Kato, chief financial officer of MIPS Technologies. "Agreements signed this quarter indicate that our solutions are compelling for a wide range of applications the world over. This same growth trend was exhibited in our royalty stream as licensees continue to deliver numerous MIPS-based products to the consumer and networking markets."
"This quarter's solid growth in both licensing activities and royalty revenue reflect both the compelling nature of our product line, as well as the robust design activity of our licensees," said John Bourgoin, president and CEO of MIPS Technologies. "We are particularly pleased that a significant portion of our license revenue came from new technology products, indicating that our superior value proposition is well-recognized. Our royalties in the markets other than video games reached record levels, indicating ongoing and broad based growth in the production of MIPS-based products worldwide."

These adjustments reconcile the Company's GAAP results of operations to
the reported non-GAAP results of operations. The Company believes that
presentation of net income and net income per share excluding non-cash
equity-based compensation and acquired in-process research and development
provides meaningful supplemental information to investors, as well as
management, that is indicative of the Company's core operating results and
facilitates comparison of operating results across reporting periods. The
Company uses these non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial results
as well as for internal planning and budgeting purposes. These non-GAAP
measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company's GAAP
results, and may be different than non-GAAP measures used by other
companies.
(a) Non-cash equity-based compensation expense related to the Company's
adoption of SFAS No. 123 revised (123R) beginning July 1, 2005. For the
second fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2005 of $2.1 million, allocated
as follows: $750,000 to research and development, $546,000 to sales and
marketing and $776,000 to general and administrative. For the first fiscal
quarter ending September 30, 2005 of $4.9 million, allocated as follows:
$4.0 million to research and development including a one-time charge of
$3.3 million related to the Danish lawsuit settlement, $470,000 to sales
and marketing and $380,000 to general and administrative. Management
believes that it is useful to investors to understand how the expenses
associated with the adoption of SFAS 123R are reflected in net income.
Net income for the second fiscal quarter of 2005 ending December 31, 2004
did not include equity-based compensation expense under SFAS 123.
(b) The charge of $570,000 for acquired in-process research and
development expense related to the acquisition of First Silicon Solutions
(FS2) completed in September 2005. Management believes that excluding
this charge facilitates comparisons to MIPS' core operating results during
periods when there were no acquisitions.
(c) Amount reflects the expected tax impact on the above noted non-GAAP
adjustments.

These adjustments reconcile the Company's GAAP results of operations to
the reported non-GAAP results of operations. The Company believes that
presentation of net income and net income per share excluding non-cash
equity-based compensation, acquired in-process research and development
and restructuring costs provides meaningful supplemental information to
investors, as well as management, that is indicative of the Company's core
operating results and facilitates comparison of operating results across
reporting periods. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures when
evaluating its financial results as well as for internal planning and
budgeting purposes. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a
substitute for the Company's GAAP results, and may be different than non-
GAAP measures used by other companies.
(a) Non-cash equity-based compensation expense of $6.9 million related to
the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 123 revised (123R) beginning in the
first quarter of fiscal 2006, allocated as follows: $4.8 million to
research and development including a one-time charge of $3.3 million
related to the Danish lawsuit settlement, $1.0 million to sales and
marketing and $1.1 million to general and administrative. Management
believes that it is useful to investors to understand how the expenses
associated with the adoption of SFAS 123R are reflected in net income.
Net income for the first six months of fiscal 2005 did not include equity-
based compensation expense under SFAS 123.
(b) The charge of $570,000 for acquired in-process research and
development expense related to the acquisition of First Silicon Solutions
(FS2) completed in September 2005. Management believes that excluding
this charge facilitates comparisons to MIPS' core operating results during
periods when there were no acquisitions.
(c) Additional restructuring charge related to terminating a long-term
lease obligation for a Denmark design center facility. Management
believes that it is useful in measuring MIPS' operations to exclude
expenses related to closing of facilities because excluding this charge
facilitates comparisons to MIPS' core operating results during periods
when there was no such charge.
(d) Amount reflects the expected tax impact on the above noted non-GAAP
adjustments.
