SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ: SNDK), a global leader in flash storage solutions, today announced results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 28, 2014. Fourth quarter revenue of $1.74 billion was slightly higher on a year-over-year basis and decreased 1 percent sequentially. Total revenue for fiscal 2014 was a record $6.63 billion, a 7 percent increase from $6.17 billion in fiscal 2013.
On a GAAP(1) basis, fourth quarter net income was $202 million, or $0.86 per share, compared to net income of $338 million, or $1.45 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and $263 million, or $1.09 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Net income for fiscal 2014 was $1.01 billion, or $4.23 per share, compared to $1.04 billion, or $4.34 per share, in fiscal 2013.
On a non-GAAP(2)(3) basis, fourth quarter net income was $294 million, or $1.30 per share, compared to net income of $390 million, or $1.71 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and net income of $336 million, or $1.45 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Net income for fiscal 2014 was $1.29 billion, or $5.60 per share, compared to $1.27 billion, or $5.31 per share, in fiscal 2013. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP results, see accompanying financial tables and footnotes.
“We delivered record revenue in 2014 with continued progress in shifting our portfolio towards high value solutions,” said Sanjay Mehrotra, president and chief executive officer of SanDisk. “Our SSD solutions reached 29 percent of revenue in 2014, with strong growth from both client and enterprise SSDs. We are disappointed with our fourth quarter results, which were impacted primarily by supply constraints. We believe that NAND flash industry fundamentals are healthy, and we expect our financial results to improve as we move through 2015.”

(1) To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use non-GAAP measures of operating results, net income and net income per share, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses, gains and losses. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the user's overall understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects for the future. Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors as these non-GAAP results exclude certain expenses, gains and losses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results and because they are consistent with the financial models and estimates published by many analysts who follow us. For example, because the non-GAAP results exclude the expenses we recorded for share-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets related to acquisitions of Pliant Technology, Inc. in May 2011, FlashSoft Corporation in February 2012, Schooner Information Technology, Inc. in June 2012, SMART Storage Systems in August 2013 and Fusion-io, Inc. in July 2014, inventory step-up expense, non-cash economic interest expense associated with the convertible debt, non-cash change in fair value of the liability component of the convertible debt due to the conversion of a portion of the 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 and related tax adjustments, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency in our financial reporting. In addition, our non-GAAP diluted shares include the impact of the call options which, when exercised, will offset the issuance of dilutive shares from the 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 and 0.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020, while the GAAP diluted shares exclude the anti-dilutive impact of these call options. These non-GAAP results are some of the primary indicators management uses for assessing our performance, allocating resources, and planning and forecasting future periods. Further, management uses non-GAAP information that excludes certain non-cash charges, such as share-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, inventory step-up expense, non-cash economic interest expense associated with the convertible debt, non-cash change in fair value of the liability component of the convertible debt due to the conversion of a portion of the 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 and related tax adjustments, as these non-GAAP charges do not reflect the cash operating results of the business or the ongoing results. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP measures may be different than the non-GAAP measures used by other companies. (a) Share-based compensation expense. (b) Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, primarily developed technology, customer relationships, and trademarks and trade names related to the acquisitions of Pliant Technology, Inc., FlashSoft Corporation, Schooner Information Technology, Inc., SMART Storage Systems and Fusion-io, Inc. (c) Inventory step-up expense related to the acquisition of Fusion-io, Inc. (d) Impairment of acquisition-related intangible assets and in-process research and development related to the acquisitions of Schooner Information Technology, Inc. and Pliant Technology, Inc. (e) Incremental interest expense related to the non-cash economic interest expense associated with the 1% Convertible Senior Notes due 2013, 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 and 0.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020, and the non-cash change in fair value of the liability component of the convertible debt due to the conversion of a portion of the 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017. (f) Income taxes associated with certain non-GAAP to GAAP adjustments and the effects of one-time income tax adjustments recorded in a specific quarter for GAAP purposes are reflected on a forecast basis in our non-GAAP tax rate but not in our forecasted GAAP tax rate. (g) Non-GAAP diluted shares include the impact of offsetting shares from the call options related to the 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 and 0.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020, and the impact of share-based compensation.

Accordingly, the carrying value of the notes is reported as short-term debt as of December 28, 2014 and will remain so while the notes are convertible. The Convertible short-term debt conversion obligation represents the difference between the carrying value of the convertible debt and the principal amount due in cash upon conversion.SanDisk Corporation
