RF Monolithics, Inc. (NASDAQ: RFMI) (RFM or the Company) today reported sales of $8.1 million for its second quarter ended February 29, 2012 (the current quarter). This was a 6% increase compared to $7.6 million in sales for the quarter ended February 28, 2011 (the comparable quarter). Sales for the first two quarters were $16.5 million, a 2% increase from $16.1 million in the prior year. Sales also decreased 4% from the first quarter of the current fiscal year ended November 30, 2011 (the sequential quarter), due to normal seasonal factors.
The Company reported a net loss of $51,000 or $0.00 per share in the current quarter, compared to net income for the comparable quarter of $77,000 or $0.01 per share and net income of $76,000 or $0.01 per share for the sequential fiscal quarter. On a year-to-date basis, the Company reported a net income of $25,000, or $0.00 per share, compared to $237,000, or $0.02 per share in the prior year. Included in the current quarter was $161,000 in corporate development expenses consisting of investment banking, legal, special committee and other costs related to the Company’s review of strategic alternatives and recently announced agreement to be acquired by Murata Electronics North America, Inc (“Murata”).
On April 13, 2012, the Company announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated April 12, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), with Murata and Ryder Acquisition Company, Limited, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Murata, for $1.78 per common share. For that reason, RFM has canceled the management conference call scheduled for today, April 16, 2012. For additional information regarding the Merger Agreement, please refer to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 13, 2012.
RFM’s President and CEO Farlin Halsey said, “We are pleased with the sales increase in comparison to last year and the fact that our normal seasonal sales decrease from our first quarter to our second quarter was less than we have experienced in recent years. Sales increased 21% from the comparable quarter for our combined industrial and medical markets, which we have targeted for growth. As a result, sales of our Wireless Solutions segment also increased 19% from the comparable quarter. We did see some reduction in sales for some of our mature Wireless Components segment products, particularly for a high reliability, or 'HI-REL,' filter program that has largely been completed.
“Another positive factor was an increase in gross margins to 34.6% for the current quarter from 31.5% in the sequential quarter. We have repaired many of the supply chain issues that had resulted in higher than normal costs in previous quarters. We also experienced a much larger mix of Wireless Solutions segment sales, particularly for relatively high margin RF module products. The decrease in gross margin from 36.0% last year was due to product mix shifts, especially the absence of sales related to the HI-REL filter program.
“Excluding corporate development expenses, our normal operating expenses were at comparable levels with prior periods and combined with the gross profit we’re reporting, would have resulted in a net income of over $100,000 for the quarter.”
“The most significant news for our shareholders is the announcement we made last Friday concerning the signing of a definitive merger agreement to be acquired by Murata for $1.78 per share to holders of RFM common shares. This price represents approximately an 80% premium over the NASDAQ closing price as of RFM’s common shares on April 12, 2012. We hope to consummate the merger in the third calendar quarter of 2012,” Halsey said.

As a supplemental disclosure, we report Adjusted EBITDA. While this is a non-GAAP measure, this is a standard metric used by many companies to measure performance, particularly to measure cash flow performance before interest expenses are paid. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful supplemental information to investors and offers a better understanding of results of operations as seen through the eyes of management and facilitates comparison to results for prior periods. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to enable investors to perform additional comparisons of operating results and analyze financial performance without the impact of certain non-cash expenses that may obscure trends in our underlying performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate our financial performance. This non-GAAP financial measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP financial measures and may differ from other similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of the additional information should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of reported net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA are included below.
