(“Allegro” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:ALGM), a global leader in power and sensing semiconductor solutions for motion control and energy efficient systems, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 that ended March 25, 2022. The Company’s net sales increased 7% sequentially to a new quarterly record of $200.3 million. Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin also reached records, and earnings per share was at the high end of guidance.

    • Industrial net sales of $34.7 million were up 19% year-over-year.

    • GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.13 and non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.21, up 11% sequentially and at the high end of guidance.

    For the full year, net sales were $768.7 million, an increase of 30% compared to the prior year. Gross margin was 53.0% on a GAAP basis, an increase of 583 bps over the prior year, and 54.1% on a non-GAAP basis, an increase of 410 bps over the prior year and representing new records and meaningful progress toward the Company’s target of 55%. Improvements in operating income resulted in significant earnings per share growth on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis.

    Fiscal Year Highlights:

    • Total net sales of $768.7 million were up 30% year-over-year.
    • Automotive net sales of $531.6 million were up 34% year-over-year.
    • Industrial net sales of $133.2 million were up 40% year-over-year.
    • GAAP gross margin was 53.0% and non-GAAP gross margin was 54.1%.
    • Operating margin on a GAAP basis was 17.8% and on a non-GAAP basis was 23.2%.
    • GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.62, representing 520% year-over-year growth, and non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.78, representing 70% year-over-year growth.

    “Allegro’s outstanding fourth quarter execution capped a year of record results as well as the achievement of several key milestones,” said Ravi Vig, President and CEO of Allegro MicroSystems. “In fiscal 2022, we demonstrated magnetic sensor and power technology leadership, drove record revenues across our business, and meaningfully grew earnings per share through margin expansion and operating leverage. The secular trends that drive our long-term trajectory – including vehicle electrification, advanced driver assistance systems, data center efficiency and efficient motion control – continue to see strong adoption in the market. In addition, our design win momentum and record backlog will continue to serve as significant growth drivers for fiscal 2023, contributing to an increase in our full year revenue growth outlook to the high-teens.”

    Business Summary and Outlook

    Automotive represented 71% of revenue in the quarter and grew 8.0% sequentially, driven by strong content expansion across active safety, comfort and convenience as well as vehicle electrification applications. Automotive net sales for fiscal year 2022 grew 34% year-over-year to reach a record high of $531.6 million, with ADAS and xEV growing to approximately 36% of automotive revenue. The Company shared that new products represented the majority of design wins during the fiscal year, driven by the close alignment of its innovation pipeline with high growth xEV and ADAS applications.

    Industrial end markets represented 17% of revenue in the quarter and increased 9% sequentially, reaching record levels. The Company continued to gain momentum across multiple categories, including data center, green energy and EV charging infrastructure. Industrial sales for fiscal year 2022 grew 40% year-over-year to reach a record high of $133.2 million, resulting from the Company’s alignment to key trends in automation and efficient motion control, as well as its successful transformation to improve its scale and focus in the broad market.

    For the first quarter ending June 24, 2022, the Company expects total net sales to be in the range of $205 million to $210 million. Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be in the range of 54% to 55% and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $0.22 to $0.23.

    Allegro has not provided a reconciliation of its first fiscal quarter outlook for non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share because estimates of all of the reconciling items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts. It is difficult to reasonably provide a forward-looking estimate between such forward-looking non-GAAP measures and the comparable forward-looking GAAP measures. Certain factors that are materially significant to Allegro’s ability to estimate these items are out of its control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted.

    Earnings Webcast

    A webcast will be held on Tuesday, May 10, 2022 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time. Ravi Vig, President and Chief Executive Officer and Derek D’Antilio, Chief Financial Officer, will discuss Allegro’s financial results.

    The webcast will be available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at investors.allegromicro.com. A recording of the webcast will be posted in the same location shortly after the call concludes and will be available for at least 30 days.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we regularly review other measures, defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends, prepare financial forecasts and make strategic decisions. The key measures we consider are non-GAAP Gross Profit, non-GAAP Gross Margin, non-GAAP Operating Expenses, non-GAAP Operating Income, non-GAAP Operating Margin, non-GAAP Profit before Tax, non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, non-GAAP Net Income, non-GAAP Net Income per Share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”). These Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide supplemental information regarding our operating performance on a non-GAAP basis that excludes certain gains, losses and charges of a non-cash nature or that occur relatively infrequently and/or that management considers to be unrelated to our core operations, and in the case of non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, management believes that this non-GAAP measure of income taxes provides it with the ability to evaluate the non-GAAP Provision for Income Taxes across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items and discrete items, which may vary in size and frequency. By presenting these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, we provide a basis for comparison of our business operations between periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, and we believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by our presenting these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, as they provide a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. Management believes that tracking and presenting these Non-GAAP Financial Measures provides management and the investment community with valuable insight into matters such as: our ongoing core operations, our ability to generate cash to service our debt and fund our operations; and the underlying business trends that are affecting our performance. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are used by both management and our board of directors, together with the comparable GAAP information, in evaluating our current performance and planning our future business activities. In particular, management finds it useful to exclude non-cash charges in order to better correlate our operating activities with our ability to generate cash from operations and to exclude certain cash charges as a means of more accurately predicting our liquidity requirements. We believe that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, when used in conjunction with our GAAP financial information, also allow investors to better evaluate our financial performance in comparison to other periods and to other companies in our industry.

    These Non-GAAP Financial Measures have significant limitations as analytical tools. Some of these limitations are that:

    • such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
    • such measures exclude certain costs which are important in analyzing our GAAP results;
    • such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
    • such measures do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
    • such measures do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
    • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future;
    • such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
    • other companies in our industry may calculate such measures differently than we do, thereby further limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

    The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are supplemental measures of our performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered as substitutes for GAAP financial measures such as gross profit, gross margin, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Also, in the future we may incur expenses or charges such as those being adjusted in the calculation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Our presentation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

    Our prior disclosure referred to non-GAAP Gross Profit and non-GAAP Gross Margin as Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin, respectively. No changes have been made to how we calculate these measures.

    Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross Margin

    We calculate non-GAAP Gross Profit and non-GAAP Gross Margin excluding the items below from cost of goods sold in applicable periods, and we calculate non-GAAP Gross Margin as non-GAAP Gross Profit divided by total net sales.

    • Voxtel inventory impairment—Represents costs related to the discontinuation of one of our product lines manufactured by Voxtel.
    • Inventory cost amortization—Represents intercompany inventory transactions incurred from purchases made from PSL in fiscal year 2020. Such costs are one-time incurred expenses impacting our operating results during fiscal year 2021 following the disposition of PSL during the fiscal year ended March 26, 2021 (the “PSL Divestiture”). Such costs did not have a continuing impact on our operating results after our second fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2021.
    • Foundry service payment—Represents foundry service payments incurred under our Price Support Agreement with PSL in respect to the guaranteed capacity at PSL to support our production forecast and are one-time costs incurred impacting our operating results during fiscal year 2021 following the PSL Divestiture. Such costs did have a continuing impact on our operating results after fiscal year 2021.
    • Stock-based compensation—Represents non-cash expenses arising from the grant of stock-based awards.
    • AMTC Facility consolidation one-time costs—Represents one-time costs incurred in connection with closing of the AMTC Facility and transitioning of test and assembly functions to the AMPI Facility announced in fiscal year 2020, consisting of: moving equipment between facilities, contract terminations and other non-recurring charges. The closure and transition of the AMTC Facility was substantially completed as of the end of March 2021 and closed on the sale in August 2021. These costs are in addition to, and not duplicative of, the adjustments noted in note (*) below.
    • Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets—Represents non-cash expenses associated with the amortization of intangible assets in connection with the acquisition of Voxtel, which closed in August 2020.
    • COVID-19 related expenses—Represents expenses attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic primarily related to increased purchases of masks, gloves and other protective materials, and overtime premium compensation paid for maintaining 24-hour service at the AMPI Facility.

    (*) Non-GAAP Gross Profit and the corresponding calculation of non-GAAP Gross Margin in this release do not include adjustments consisting of:

    • Additional AMTC-related costs—Represents costs relating to the closing of the AMTC Facility and the transitioning of test and assembly functions to the AMPI Facility in the Philippines announced in fiscal year 2020 consisting of the net savings expected to result from the movement of work to the AMPI Facility, which facility had duplicative capacity based on the buildouts of the AMPI Facility in fiscal years 2019 and 2018. The elimination of these costs did not reduce our production capacity and therefore did not have direct effects on our ability to generate revenue. The closure and transition of the AMTC Facility was substantially completed as of the end of March 2021.
    • Out-of-period adjustment for depreciation expense of giant magnetoresistance assets (“GMR assets”)—Represents a one-time depreciation expense related to the correction of an immaterial error, related to 2017, for certain manufacturing assets that have reached the end of their useful lives.

    Non-GAAP Operating Expenses, non-GAAP Operating Income and non-GAAP Operating Margin

    We calculate non-GAAP Operating Expenses and non-GAAP Operating Income excluding the same items excluded above to the extent they are classified as operating expenses, and also excluding the items below in applicable periods. We calculate non-GAAP Operating Margin as non-GAAP Operating Income divided by total net sales.

    • Transaction fees—Represents transaction-related legal and consulting fees incurred primarily in connection with (i) the acquisition of Voxtel in fiscal year 2020, (ii) one-time transaction-related legal and consulting fees in fiscal 2021, (iii) one-time transaction-related legal, consulting and registration fees related to a secondary offering on behalf of certain shareholders in fiscal 2022, and (iv) one-time transaction-related legal and consulting fees in fiscal 2022 not related to (iii).
    • Severance—Represents severance costs associated with (i) labor savings initiatives to manage overall compensation expense as a result of the declining sales volume during the applicable period, including a voluntary separation incentive payment plan for employees near retirement and a reduction in force, (ii) the closing of the AMTC Facility and the transitioning of test and assembly functions to the AMPI Facility announced and initiated in fiscal year 2020, (iii) costs related to the discontinuation of one of our product lines manufactured by Voxtel in fiscal year 2022, and (iv) nonrecurring separation costs related to the departure of an officer in fiscal year 2022.
    • Impairment of long-lived assets—Represents impairment charge incurred in connection with the sale of the AMTC Facility.
    • Change in fair value of contingent consideration—Represents the change in fair value of contingent consideration payable in connection with the acquisition of Voxtel.

    (**) Non-GAAP Operating Income in this release does not include adjustments consisting of those set forth in note (*) to the calculation of non-GAAP Gross Profit, and the corresponding calculation of non-GAAP Gross Margin, above or:

    • Labor savings—Represents salary and benefit costs related to employees whose positions were eliminated through voluntary separation programs or other reductions in force (not associated with the closure of the AMTC Facility or any other plant or facility) and a restructuring of overhead positions from high-cost to low-cost jurisdictions net of costs for newly hired employees in connection with such restructuring.

    EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

    We calculate EBITDA as net income minus interest income (expense), tax provision (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expenses. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding the same items excluded above and also excluding the items below in applicable periods. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total net sales.

    • Non-core loss (gain) on sale of equipment—Represents non-core miscellaneous losses and gains on the sale of equipment.
    • Miscellaneous legal judgment charge—Represents a one-time charge associated with the final payment of the previously accrued amount payable with respect to a VAT dispute related to the construction of the AMPI Facility.
    • Loss on debt extinguishment—Represents one-time costs representing deferred financing costs associated with the $300.0 million of our term loan facility repaid during the fiscal year ended March 26, 2021.
    • Foreign currency translation loss—Represents losses and gains resulting from the remeasurement and settlement of intercompany debt and operational transactions, as well as transactions with external customers or vendors denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the legal entity in which the transaction is recorded.
    • Income in earnings of equity investment—Represents our equity method investment in PSL.
    • Unrealized losses (gains) on investments—Represents mark-to-market adjustments on equity investments with readily determinable fair values.

    Non-GAAP Profit before Tax, Non-GAAP Net Income, and Non-GAAP Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

    We calculate non-GAAP Profit before Tax as Profit before as Income (Loss) before Income Taxes excluding the same items excluded above and also excluding the item below in applicable periods. We calculate non-GAAP Net Income as Net Income excluding the same items excluded above and also excluding the item below in applicable periods.

    • Interest on repaid portion of term loan facility—Represents interest expense associated with the $300.0 million of our term loan facility repaid during the period.

    Non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax

    In calculating non-GAAP Provision for Income Tax, we have added back the following to GAAP Income Tax Provision (Benefit):

    • Tax effect of adjustments to GAAP results—Represents the estimated income tax effect of the adjustments to non-GAAP Profit Before Tax described above and elimination of discrete tax adjustments.
