CyberOptics Reports Significantly Improved Second Quarter Operating Results
MINNEAPOLIS --(Business Wire)--
CyberOptics Corporation (Nasdaq: CYBE) today reported significantly
improved operating results for the second quarter of 2014.
-
Revenues increased 42% to $13.3 million from $9.3 million in the
second quarter of 2013. Completed in mid-March, the acquisition of
Laser Design, Inc. (LDI), a Minneapolis-based 3D metrology company,
contributed $1.7 million to CyberOptics' consolidated second quarter
revenues.
-
Reflecting the strong revenue growth, the second quarter net loss
narrowed to $315,000 or $.05 per share, down from the loss of $1.2
million or $.17 per share in the year-earlier period.
Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, president and chief executive officer, commented:
"Our recent performance marks CyberOptics' third consecutive quarter of
improved year over year operating results. Although more work remains,
we believe this uptrend is evidence that our growth initiatives and new
products are enabling CyberOptics to make tangible progress toward our
goal of achieving sustainable profitable growth."
He continued: "Sales of SMT sensors increased 52% from last year's
second quarter, driven by demand for LaserAlign sensors from our OEM
customers. Sales of inspection systems rose 15% year-over-year due to
higher sales of our new solder paste inspection (SPI) and automated
optical inspection (AOI) systems, which are gaining share in the
inspection market. Sales of new pre-reflow AOI systems also are
continuing to grow, reflecting the value customers are finding by
inspecting circuit boards for defects before entering the reflow oven.
In addition, sales of semiconductor products, principally the WaferSense
product line, were up 9% from last year's second quarter."
Kulkarni said: "From an R&D standpoint, we are focused on strategically
repositioning CyberOptics as a global leader in high-precision 3D
sensors for the electronic assembly, semiconductor and industrial
markets, since 3D sensing constitutes the high-growth segment of these
and adjacent applications. At the heart of this initiative is the
development of our Multi-Reflection Suppression (MRS) 3D technology.
This sensor technology will be deployed in our next-generation AOI
system, which is designed to expand CyberOptics' presence in the smart
phone and tablet markets as well as other high-precision applications.
As planned, we expect to start marketing our 3D AOI system in the fourth
quarter and realize the initial sales in early 2015. In addition, we are
pursuing new OEM opportunities with our MRS 3D technology. The LDI
acquisition represents another aspect of our 3D initiative, and we are
incorporating our MRS technology into one of LDI's existing products,
the Auto Gage 3D Scanning System, to strengthen its performance and
competitiveness in a wide range of industrial applications. Introduction
of the MRS-equipped Auto Gage is planned for early 2015."
He stated: "In addition to 3D sensing, we also are developing promising
products for inspecting memory modules and conformal coating on circuit
boards. These products, which we believe have solid sales potential, are
scheduled for introduction during the second half of the year."
Kulkarni concluded: "For the second half of 2014, we are forecasting
double-digit, year-over-year sales growth, excluding the positive impact
of LDI, and a significantly reduced loss, reflecting ongoing demand for
new products across all categories. In all, we remain confident about
CyberOptics' near and longer-term future."
