“In the second quarter of fiscal 2024 we benefited from improvements in our cost structure and operational effectiveness. We exceeded the high-end of our guidance range with revenue of $25.4 million and, more importantly, we delivered adjusted EBITDA of $0.8 million despite continued softness in overall market demand. Over the past few quarters, we have better aligned the size of our organization to support current market demand and believe we have positioned the company to deliver strong operating results as the broader semiconductor market recovers,” commented Mr. Bob Daigle, Chief Executive Officer of Amtech.

Net revenues increased 2% sequentially and decreased 24% from the second quarter of fiscal 2023. The sequential increase is primarily due to increased consumable sales in our Material and Substrate segment, as customers update their buying patterns and adjust inventory levels. The decrease from prior year is primarily attributable to lower sales across most of our product portfolio due to a slow-down in the broader semiconductor market.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, GAAP gross margin was flat sequentially and decreased compared to the same prior year period. In our semiconductor segment, GAAP gross margin was negatively affected by product mix and increased material costs, both primarily attributed to shipments of our horizontal diffusion furnaces. GAAP gross margin in our Material and Substrate segment increased sequentially and compared to the same prior year period due primarily to a more favorable product mix, with increased consumable sales partially offset by lower equipment sales. Non-GAAP gross margin decreased sequentially and compared to the same prior year period due primarily to a less favorable product mix and increased material costs, both primarily attributed to shipments of our horizontal diffusion furnaces.

Selling, General & Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased $0.3 million on a sequential basis and decreased $3.2 million compared to the prior year period. The sequential decrease is due primarily to reductions in labor expenses and lower commissions and shipping expenses. Compared to the same prior year period, the decrease is due primarily to $1.5 million of lower acquisition expenses, $0.6 million of lower amortization expense, and reductions in labor, commissions and shipping expenses.

Research, Development and Engineering expenses decreased $0.7 million sequentially and decreased $0.6 million compared to the same prior year period due primarily to the timing of purchases related to specific projects in our Semiconductor segment.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we sold our corporate headquarters building in Tempe, Arizona for a gain of $2.2 million and net cash proceeds of $2.5 million.

GAAP operating income was $1.4 million, compared to GAAP operating loss of $8.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and GAAP operating income of $0.5 million in the same prior year period.

Non-GAAP operating income was $0.2 million, compared to non-GAAP operating loss of $0.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and non-GAAP operating income of $3.2 million in the same prior year period.

GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $1.0 million, or 7 cents per share. This compares to GAAP net loss of $9.4 million, or 66 cents per share, for the preceding quarter and GAAP net income of $3.2 million, or 23 cents per share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $0.2 million, or 1 cent per share. This compares to non-GAAP net loss of $0.6 million, or 4 cents per share, for the preceding quarter and non-GAAP net income of $2.7 million, or 19 cents per share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2024, were $13.0 million, compared to $13.1 million at September 30, 2023. Debt payments during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $6.4 million. Net cash as of March 31, 2024 was $8.8 million compared to $7.0 million as of December 31, 2023.

In discussing financial results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 and the three months ended December 31, 2023, in this press release, the Company refers to certain financial measures that are adjusted from the financial results prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). All non-GAAP amounts exclude certain adjustments for stock compensation expense, severance expense, expenses related to the discontinued product line, intangible asset impairment, gain on the sale of our Arizona headquarters, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition expenses, and income tax benefit related to our acquisition of Entrepix, Inc. A tabular reconciliation of financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release.

Outlook

Operating results can be significantly impacted, positively or negatively, by the timing of orders, system shipments, logistical challenges, and the financial results of semiconductor manufacturers. Additionally, the semiconductor equipment industries can be cyclical and inherently impacted by changes in market demand. Actual results may differ materially in the weeks and months ahead.

For the third fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2024, we expect revenues in the range of $22 - 25 million with adjusted EBITDA nominally positive, which includes some expenses and production downtime with the BTU facility move. Although the near-term outlook for revenue and earnings remains challenging, we remain confident that the future prospects are strong for both our consumables and equipment serving advanced mobility and advanced packaging applications. We took actions during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2024, which will reduce Amtech's structural costs by approximately $6 million annually and better align product pricing with value. These steps should significantly improve results and enhance profitability through market cycles.

A portion of Amtech's results is denominated in Renminbis, a Chinese currency. The outlook provided in this press release is based on an assumed exchange rate between the United States Dollar and the Renminbi. Changes in the value of the Renminbi in relation to the United States Dollar could cause actual results to differ from expectations.

All statements in this press release, or made by management of Amtech Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Amtech"), other than statements of historical fact, are hereby identified as "forward-looking statements" (as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). The forward-looking statements in this press release relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this press release. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements regarding Amtech's future financial results, operating results, business strategies, projected costs, products under development, competitive positions, plans and objectives of Amtech and its management for future operations, efforts to improve operational efficiencies and effectiveness and profitably grow our revenue, and enhancements to our technologies and expansion of our product portfolio. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "may," "plan," "anticipate," "seek," "will," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "believe," "continue," "predict," "potential," "project," "should," "would," "could", "likely," "future," "target," "forecast," "goal," "observe," and "strategy" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology used in this press release or by our management, which are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. The Form 10-K that Amtech filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for the year-ended September 30, 2023, listed various important factors that could affect the Company's future operating results and financial condition and could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this document or elsewhere by Amtech or on its behalf. These factors can be found under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Form 10-K and in our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Qs, and investors should refer to them.
