Lumentum Announces Fiscal Second Quarter 2019 ResultsMILPITAS, Calif., Feb. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lumentum Holdings Inc. ("Lumentum" or the "Company") today reported results for its fiscal second quarter ended December 29, 2018. Net revenue for the fiscal second quarter of 2019 was $373.7 million, with GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders of $5.4 million, or $0.08 per diluted share. Net revenue for the fiscal first quarter of 2019 was $354.1 million, with GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders of $46.1 million, or $0.72 per diluted share. Net revenue for the fiscal second quarter of 2018 was $404.6 million, with GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders of $196.9 million, or $3.05 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal second quarter of 2019 was $78.3 million, or $1.15 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal first quarter of 2019 was $85.8 million, or $1.31 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal second quarter of 2018 was $107.8 million, or $1.67 per diluted share. The Company held $684.1 million in total cash and short-term investments at the end of the fiscal second quarter of 2019. "Our investments in new and differentiated products continue to drive growth in our telecom and lasers product lines. ROADM and fiber laser revenues more than doubled over the prior year and once again achieved new record levels in the second quarter," said Alan Lowe President and CEO. "Strength in Telecom demand is expected to continue in the third quarter, counter to historical seasonality. Second quarter 3D sensing revenue came in as expected, and we continue to make progress with new design wins with new and existing customers. The closing of the Oclaro acquisition in December gives us a first mover advantage in a consolidating industry and establishes leadership positions based on fundamental photonic chip capabilities across a broad range of products and technologies to address the growing communications, industrial, and consumer markets." Financial Overview – Fiscal Second Quarter Ended December 29, 2018
The tables above provide comparisons of quarterly results to prior periods, including sequential quarterly and year-over-year changes. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP measures is contained in this release under the section titled "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures." On July 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) using the modified retrospective method applied to all contracts that are not completed contracts at the date of initial adoption(i.e., July 1, 2018). Results for reporting periods after July 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605. The adoption of Topic 606 did not have a material impact on the nature and timing of our revenues, consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and balance sheet and therefore, we do not present results for the three and six months ended December 29, 2018 under Topic 605. Business Outlook The Company expects the following for the fiscal third quarter 2019:
We have not provided reconciliations from GAAP to non-GAAP measures for our outlook. A large portion of non-GAAP adjustments, such as derivative liability adjustments, restructuring charges, stock-based compensation, litigation, acquisition-related costs, non-cash income tax expense and credits, transferring product lines to Thailand, amortization of fair value adjustments and other costs and contingencies unrelated to current and future operations are by their nature highly volatile and we have low visibility as to the range that may be incurred in the future. For example, in the fiscal second quarter of 2018, we had a credit of $207.0 million primarily related to a release of a U.S. valuation allowance, which was offset by a write-down of deferred tax assets in the amount of $83.0 million due to the lower corporate tax rate enacted under the 2017 "Tax Cuts and Jobs Act" reform.

The following financial tables are presented in accordance with GAAP, unless otherwise specified.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures In this press release, Lumentum provides investors with gross margin, gross profit, operating margin, operating income, income (loss) before income taxes and certain expenses, net income, and net income (loss) per share on a non-GAAP basis. Lumentum believes this non-GAAP financial information provides additional insight into the Company's on-going performance and has therefore chosen to provide this information to investors for a more consistent basis of comparison and to help them evaluate the results of the Company's on-going operations and enable more meaningful period to period comparisons. Specifically, the Company believes that providing this information allows investors to better understand the Company's financial performance and, importantly, to evaluate the efficacy of the methodology and information used by management to evaluate and measure such operating performance. However, these measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release should not be considered in isolation from measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. In particular, many of the adjustments to our GAAP financial measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measurements reported by other companies. Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP expenses, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP income (loss) before income taxes, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP net income per share exclude (i) stock-based compensation, (ii) acquisition related costs, (iii) inventory write-downs due to cancelled programs and other costs and contingencies unrelated to current and future operations, (iv) amortization of acquired intangibles, (v) workforce related charges such as severance, retention bonuses and employee relocation costs related to formal restructuring plans, (vi) amortization of fair value adjustments, (vii) non-cash interest expense, (viii) unrealized gain (loss) on derivative liability, (ix) transferring product lines to Thailand and (x) non-cash income tax provision impacts, for example, a release of a U.S. valuation allowance, and the write down of deferred tax assets due to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The presentation of these and other similar items in Lumentum's non-GAAP financial results should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual. A quantitative reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial data with respect to historical periods is included in the supplemental financial table attached to this press release.
