SAN JOSE, Calif., July 27, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTGR), a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 3, 2016.

Net revenue for the second quarter ended July 3, 2016 was $311.7 million, as compared to $288.8 million in the second quarter ended June 28, 2015, and $310.3 million in the first quarter ended April 3, 2016. Net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the second quarter of 2016 was $16.0 million, or $0.48 net income per diluted share. This compared to GAAP net income of $3.7 million, or $0.11 net income per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015, and GAAP net income of $16.6 million, or $0.50 net income per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP net income was $0.72 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2016, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.29 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2015 and $0.74 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2016.

Operating margin, computed in accordance with GAAP, for the second quarter of 2016 was 8.2%, as compared to 3.9% in the year ago comparable quarter, and 8.3% in the first quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP operating margin was 11.6% in the second quarter of 2016, as compared to 7.1% in the second quarter of 2015 and 11.9% in the first quarter of 2016.

The differences between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments for amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring and other charges, losses on inventory commitments due to restructuring, litigation reserves, net, gain on litigation settlements, loss pertaining to cost method investment and tax effect. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of financial measures computed on a GAAP basis to financial measures computed on a non-GAAP basis.

Patrick Lo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NETGEAR, commented, “We were pleased with our financial results for the second quarter of 2016, which came in higher than we had expected in revenue and non-GAAP operating margin. The Retail Business Unit and Commercial Business Unit both outperformed expectations by posting sequential growth despite typically slower second quarter seasonality. Overall, our financial results reinforce that the Company is on a strong trajectory in 2016.”

Mr. Lo continued, “During the quarter we once again saw continued strength in North America, slight year-over-year growth in APAC, while EMEA continued to be challenged, primarily due to significantly reduced service provider revenue."

Christine Gorjanc, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, added, "During the second quarter of 2016, we continued to be opportunistic buyers of NETGEAR equity and repurchased approximately 314,000 shares of common stock, which makes our total repurchase amount since Q4 2013 approximately 9.2 million shares.”

Ms. Gorjanc continued, "Looking forward to the third quarter of 2016¹, we expect net revenue to be in the range of $315 million to $330 million. Our revenue outlook reflects back-to-school seasonality for the Retail Business Unit, but a reduced service provider revenue forecast. Non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be in the range of 10.5% to 11.5%. Our non-GAAP tax rate is expected to be approximately 35% for the third quarter of 2016.”

¹While a reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis, the company has provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the accompanying schedules for its fiscal quarters ended July 3, 2016, June 28, 2015 and April 3, 2016, as well as the six month periods ended July 3, 2016 and June 28, 2015.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, NETGEAR uses non-GAAP financial measures, which are adjusted to exclude certain expenses and tax adjustments, where applicable. We believe non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future. These adjustments to our current period GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of NETGEAR's underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before charges that are considered by management to be outside of our core operating results. In addition, these adjusted non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
