nLIGHT, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results

Revenues of $60.8 million and gross margin of 25.3% for the second quarter of 2022

nLIGHT, Inc. (Nasdaq: LASR), a leading provider of high-power semiconductor and fiber lasers used in the industrial, microfabrication, and aerospace and defense markets, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2022.

“We delivered a solid quarter despite the significant operational challenges caused by a prolonged COVID-related lockdown in Shanghai,” commented Scott Keeney, nLIGHT’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “43% year-over-year growth in sales to Industrial customers outside of China and continued strong demand in Microfabrication enabled us to generate product revenue at the midpoint of our guidance range. In Directed Energy, we delivered new products to multiple customers and continued to make good progress in our core development programs.”

Mr. Keeney continued, “Favorable product mix and solid execution towards our strategic revenue growth objectives helped drive gross margins above the high end of guidance and, as a result, we are pleased to report positive Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter. Our strong balance sheet and focus on core strategic markets gives us confidence in achieving our long-term growth objectives.”

“I am also pleased to announce that Chris Schechter has joined our team as Chief Operating Officer. Chris most recently served as VP Operations, Aerospace and Defense at Celestica and brings a strong manufacturing background to support our continued growth.”

(1) A reconciliation of the non-GAAP metrics presented here to the most directly comparable GAAP metric has been provided in the tables included at the end of this release.

Revenues of $60.8 million for the second quarter of 2022 were down 12.0% compared to $69.1 million for the second quarter of 2021. Gross margin was 25.3% for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 29.4% for the second quarter of 2021. GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $(10.3) million, or net loss of $(0.23) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $(7.9) million, or net loss of $(0.19) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $(3.3) million, or non-GAAP net loss of $(0.07) per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $4.4 million, or non-GAAP net income of $0.09 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP metrics presented here to the most directly comparable GAAP metric have been provided in the tables included at the end of this release.

Outlook

For the third quarter of 2022, nLIGHT expects revenues to be in the range of $60 million to $66 million, gross margin to be in the range of 21% to 25%, and Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $(1) million to $2 million.

We have not reconciled our outlook for Adjusted EBITDA because unrealized and realized foreign exchange gains and losses cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted nor can the probable significance be determined at this time. Accordingly, a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results

In addition to U.S. GAAP results, this press release contains non-GAAP financial results, including Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted. We use Adjusted EBITDA to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure of performance as it is commonly utilized by us and the investment community to analyze operating performance in our industry. Similarly, we believe that providing non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share, basic and diluted, is useful to our investors as they present an informative supplemental view of our results from period to period by removing the effect of stock-based compensation expense and other non-recurring items. However, the non-GAAP financial metrics presented herein are specific to us and may not be comparable to similar metrics disclosed by other companies because of differing methods used by other companies in calculating them.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for income tax expense (benefit), other non-operating income or expense, interest income or expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition and integration-related costs, and other non-recurring items as determined by management, as applicable. We define non-GAAP net income (loss) as GAAP net income (loss) adjusted for stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangibles, acquisition and integration-related costs, and other non-recurring items as determined by management, as applicable. We define non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted, as non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective period plus the dilutive effect of any common stock equivalents during the period in the case of non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, diluted.

Tables presenting the reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA, as well as the reconciliation of GAAP loss to non-GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP to non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted, are included at the end of this press release.
