/PRNewswire/ —
Silicom Ltd.
(NASDAQ: SILC)
,
a leading provider of high-performance networking and data infrastructure solutions, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended
March 31, 2022
.
Financial Results
Silicom’s revenues for the first quarter of 2022 totalled
$32.1 million
, up 11% compared with
$29.0 million
for the first quarter of 2021.
On a GAAP basis, net income for the quarter totalled
$2.2 million
compared with
$2.6 million
for the first quarter of 2021. GAAP earnings per share totalled
$0.32
per diluted share (
$0.33
per basic share) compared with
$0.37
per diluted share (
$0.38
per basic share) for the first quarter of 2021.
On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), net income for the quarter totalled
$3.0 million
, unchanged from
$3.0 million
for the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP earnings per share increased to
$0.44
per diluted share (
$0.45
per basic share) compared with
$0.42
per diluted share (
$0.43
per basic share) for the first quarter of 2021.
Guidance
While multiple large design wins continue to provide visibility for dramatic growth in demand, our ability to fulfill demand continues to be impacted by the global components crisis, which we expect to continue at least through 2022. As such, we project that revenues for the second quarter of 2022 will range between
$33 million
and
$35 million
. In light of the Company’s exceedingly strong backlog, which is currently at the highest level in the Company’s history, we continue to project double-digit growth for 2022 and beyond.
Management Transition
As of
July 1
st
, Mr.
Shaike Orbach
, the Company’s President and CEO for the past 21 years, will become the Company’s Executive Vice Chairman, and
Liron Eizenman
, currently the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, will take over as the Company’s new President and CEO.
Liron Eizenman
has been a key member of Silicom’s management team for the past six years, serving first as CEO of Silicom’s North American subsidiary, and then as the COO of Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SILC). He was the visionary behind Silicom’s successful Edge Networking Solutions strategy, which emerged during 2021 as one of the Company’s primary revenue drivers, and played a pivotal role in driving the company to its leadership position in the SD-WAN/Edge platforms market.
Comments of Management
Shaike Orbach
, Silicom’s President and CEO, commented, “Our first quarter results continue to reflect the booming, stronger-than-ever demand we are experiencing for all our products, and the counter-effect of the global components crisis, which has constrained our ability to supply.
“On the one hand, our design win momentum is accelerating beyond any level we have known in the past, demonstrating the market’s critical need for our unique ‘building block’ products and platforms for disaggregated/decoupled architectures and next-generation networks. For example, during the quarter, we secured two major new design wins in highly competitive processes: one from an existing US communications service provider client, which we expect to build to approximately
$15 million
, and the other from a Tier-1 European telco, whose projected run rate is approximately
$5 million
per year. In parallel, discussions continue moving forward with a broad variety of telcos, networking equipment providers and partners, all regarding exciting new opportunities driven by SD-WAN’s and 5G/O-RAN’s coming of age.
Mr. Orbach concluded, “We therefore continue to believe, despite the – hopefully – short-term uncertainties of the components crisis, that we are headed for steep, multi-year growth, in step with the market’s sweeping transition to next-generation networks.”
