Management Comments
"Our second quarter financial and operating performances were outstanding," said Anthony Ambrose, President and CEO of Data I/O Corporation. "Building upon the progress achieved in the first quarter, revenue and bookings in the second quarter reached the highest level in 17 years. During the second quarter, we shipped our 150 th PSV family system, extending our global market share leadership.
"The turnaround strategy we started over 4 years ago has delivered our best quarter since the year 2000. We are delivering operational excellence across the board: sales, engineering, service and operations all drove our performance.
"Automotive electronics were over 50% of bookings in the first half of 2017, continuing a multiyear growth trend. We booked multiple systems from an international automotive electronics company, and shipped 2 systems to them in the second quarter. Reflecting our growing base of installed systems, revenue from adapters in the second quarter increased 72% from the prior year period to $2.1 million, or 23% of consolidated revenue.
"While we continue to experience high demand and interest in our product platforms, our second quarter bookings of $10.1 million were unusually strong. Second quarter bookings are likely to be the peak level for the year due to unprecedented demand in the first half of 2017 and our seasonal sales funnel.
"We improved overall profitability while increasing investment in research and development for our Managed and Secure Programming ("MSP") technology and automotive targeted products. In June, we announced organizational changes that significantly strengthen our management team to enable us to better address our new opportunities from MSP. Through our continued work on the MSP platform, we are developing the technologies behind a new generation of security solutions for authentication devices, secure elements and secure microcontrollers. The mission of Data I/O's MSP platform is to enable a democratization of security capabilities for OEMs globally."
Financial Results
Net sales in the second quarter of 2017 were $9.1 million, compared with $5.8 million in the second quarter of 2016.
For the 2017 second quarter, gross margin as a percentage of sales was 56.9%, compared to 53.2% in the second quarter of 2016. The improvement in gross margin as a percentage of sales for the second quarter compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to higher order volume and favorable product mix, particularly from demand for the PSV family of products by automotive electronics and programming center customers.
Net income in the second quarter of 2017 was $1.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared with net income of $444,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2016.
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") was $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $584,000 in the second quarter of 2016. Adjusted EBITDA, excluding equity compensation, was $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $789,000 in the second quarter of 2016.
Bookings in the second quarter of 2017 reached the highest level in 17 years at $10.1 million, compared to $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2016 and $8.4 million in the first quarter of 2017. Backlog at June 30, 2017 was $4.7 million as compared to $4.9 million at March 31, 2017 and $3.2 million at December 31, 2016. Deferred revenue doubled to $2.8M at June 30, 2017, up from $1.4 million at March 31, 2017.
Spending in the second quarter was up approximately $1.2 million from the same period of 2016. Approximately $600,000 of the increase was SG&A variable costs related to the increased level of business activity. Approximately $600,000 of the increase reflects additional spending on research and development to support new product development for the SentriX platform, the ConneX™ factory automation software, LumenX™ programmer features and enhancements to other products. The majority of this was personnel related, including additional headcount in engineering. The Company continues to invest to support automotive demands in the near term and security opportunities in future years.
The Company's operating leverage continues to produce meaningful incremental profitability with revenue growth, which is partially offset by spending on the new Managed and Secure Programming platform. Data I/O's financial condition remains strong with a cash position of $12.0 million and working capital of $16.9 million at June 30, 2017. The Company continues to have no debt.
