BILLERICA, Mass., Oct. 22, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Entegris, Inc. (NasdaqGS:ENTG), a leading provider of yield-enhancing materials and solutions for advanced manufacturing processes, today reported its financial results for the Company’s third quarter ended September 26, 2015.

The Company’s third-quarter sales of $270.3 million declined 4 percent sequentially and were 1 percent lower than sales of $273.1 million in the same quarter a year ago. Third-quarter net income of $23.4 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, included amortization of intangible assets of $11.7 million and integration-related costs of $2.1 million associated with the April 30, 2014 acquisition of ATMI, Inc.  Non-GAAP net income was $32.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share. 

For the first nine months of fiscal 2015, sales of $814.3 million increased 1 percent from the same period a year ago on a pro forma basis despite the negative impact of foreign currency.  Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2015 was $62.7 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, which included amortization of intangible assets of $35.9 million and integration-related costs of $7.1 million.  Non-GAAP net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2015 was $91.8 million, or $0.65 per diluted share.

Bertrand Loy, president and chief executive officer, said: “During the third quarter we experienced soft industry conditions as some customers reduced their IC production and capex levels in line with lower market demand.  In light of the challenging environment, we performed well and achieved our target operating model.  We paid down an additional $25 million of debt in the quarter, fulfilling our commitment at the time of the ATMI acquisition to repay $150 million of debt by the end of 2015.”

Non-GAAP Information
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Income together with related measures thereof, and non-GAAP EPS, are considered “Non-GAAP financial measures” under the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial measures are provided as a complement to financial measures provided in accordance with GAAP. We provide non-GAAP financial measures in order to better assess and measure operating performance. Management believes the non-GAAP measures better portray our baseline performance before certain gains, losses or other charges that may not be indicative of our business or future outlook. We believe these non-GAAP measures will aid investors’ overall understanding of our results by providing a higher degree of transparency for certain expenses and providing a level of disclosure that will help investors understand how we plan and measure our business. The reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP Statements of Operations, GAAP to Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA, and GAAP to Non-GAAP Earnings per Share are included elsewhere in this release.

In addition we have included pro forma segment net sales and segment profit for the Critical Materials Handling and Electronic Materials business segments for the nine months ended September 27, 2014.  Our pro forma presentation includes transactions (i) recorded by ATMI, Inc. prior to its merger with the Company and (ii) as if those business segments were configured during those prior periods to include the businesses included in those segments during the nine months ended September 27, 2014.  We have provided this non-GAAP pro forma information to provide investors with comparative historical context for the performance of these business segments during the nine months ended September 27, 2014.  Footnotes to the Historical Non-GAAP Pro Forma Segment Information table provided elsewhere in this release reconcile this information to the corresponding GAAP information.
