TranSwitch Corporation Announces Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results

August 14, 2013

TranSwitch Corporation (NASDAQ: TXCC), a leading provider of semiconductor solutions for multimedia connectivity and processing, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Net revenues for the second quarter of 2013 were approximately $2.8 million, as compared to net revenues of $4.6 million for the first quarter of 2013 and $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2012. Net loss for the second quarter of 2013 was ($3.8) million, or ($0.08) per basic and diluted common share, as compared to a net loss of ($3.1) million, or ($0.08) per basic and diluted common share for the first quarter of 2013, and a net loss of ($6.0) million, or ($0.19) per basic and diluted common share for the second quarter of 2012.

The GAAP gross margin for the second quarter was 73%. This is compared to the Company's GAAP gross margin of 81% for the first quarter of 2013, and 67% for the second quarter of 2012.

Total non-GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter of 2013 were $5.2 million, as compared to $5.9 million in the first quarter of 2013 and $7.4 million in the second quarter of 2012. Non-GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter of 2013 exclude $0.1 million in amortization of purchase price intangibles, $0.4 million in stock-based compensation and $0.6 million in restructuring charges, along with a benefit of $0.4 million from the reversal of accrued royalties. Total GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter of 2013 were $5.9 million, as compared to $6.6 million in the first quarter of 2013 and $8.5 million in the second quarter of 2012.

Non-GAAP operating loss for the second quarter of 2013 was ($3.1) million, compared to a non-GAAP operating loss of ($2.2) million for the first quarter of 2013 and a non-GAAP operating loss of ($4.9) million for the second quarter of 2012. On a GAAP basis, the operating loss for the second quarter of 2013 was ($3.8) million, compared to an operating loss of ($2.9) million for the first quarter of 2013 and an operating loss of ($5.9) million for the second quarter of 2012.

Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2013 was ($3.1) million, or ($0.07) per share, compared with a non-GAAP net loss of ($2.4) million, or ($0.07) per share, for the first quarter of 2013 and a non-GAAP net loss of ($5.0) million, or ($0.16) per share, for the second quarter of 2012.

Further information about non-GAAP measures is provided below and a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP results is provided after the financial statements attached to this release.

“We had lower than anticipated sales in the second quarter due to the push out of some IP licensing opportunities,” stated Dr. M. Ali Khatibzadeh, President and CEO of TranSwitch Corporation. “We continue to negotiate these opportunities with prospective customers towards reaching agreements soon. As a result of lower sales in the quarter, we have taken decisive restructuring actions to further reduce our operating expenses. Starting in the current quarter, we now estimate our quarterly non-GAAP operating expenses to run in the range of $4.3-$4.8 million. On the business front, we continued to make progress in expanding our HDplay™ traction with 13 customers so far reaching design-win stage and we anticipate orders from many of them in the second half of this year. In addition to the current design wins, our new HDplay™ products with MHL and MyDP video connectivity features are getting designed in by a number of new customers, including tier-1 electronics OEMs for pico-projectors, active cables, tablets and digital TVs. Based on customer projections, we expect these opportunities to reach the design-win stage and production starting as early as the fourth quarter of 2013.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable U.S. GAAP Measures (Unaudited)

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this earnings release and related conference call or webcast to the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The reconciliation for historic non-GAAP measures is provided herein on a quantitative basis and for non-GAAP measures that are forward-looking is provided herein on a qualitative basis.

The non-GAAP measures used in this earnings release and related conference call differ from GAAP in that they exclude expenses related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, the effects of special charges such as asset impairments, restructuring charges and benefits from the reversal of accrued royalties. The Company’s basis for these adjustments is described below. Management uses these non-GAAP measures for internal reporting and forecasting purposes. The Company has provided these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to GAAP financial results because it believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to certain investors and financial analysts for comparison across accounting periods not influenced by certain non-cash items that are not used by management when evaluating the Company’s historical and prospective financial performance.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating the Company’s operating performance and believes that such measures are useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing the Company’s operating performance as the Company believes that the presentation of non-GAAP measures that adjust for the impact of stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, the effects of special charges such as asset impairments and restructuring charges and benefits from the reversal of accrued royalties provides investors and financial analysts with a consistent basis for comparison across accounting periods and, therefore, are useful to investors and financial analysts in helping them to better understand the Company’s operating results and underlying operational trends.

We do not provide forward-looking GAAP measures or a reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures because of our inability to project special charges, asset impairments, employee separation costs and stock-based compensation related expenses.

The non-GAAP financial measures we provide have certain limitations because they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operation of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We endeavor to compensate for the limitations of these non-GAAP measures by providing GAAP financial statements, descriptions of the reconciling items and a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures so that investors can appropriately incorporate the non-GAAP measures and their limitations into their analyses. Please see our financial statements and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" that will be included in the periodic report we expect to file with the SEC with respect to the financial periods discussed herein.
