Intevac Announces Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

11/01/2021

Intevac, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVAC) today reported financial results for the quarter and nine months ended October 2, 2021.

“We are pleased to report Q3 financial results that were above forecast, and up sequentially from the second quarter, chiefly as a result of the continued acceleration of upgrade programs by our hard disk drive (HDD) customers,” commented Wendell Blonigan, president and chief executive officer. “We achieved improved operating results in the quarter, with a significant sequential increase in gross margin and continued control of expenses. In the third quarter, we completed our restructuring efforts in Thin-film Equipment (TFE) to enable reduced expense levels during this period of limited new system sales, while maintaining our ability to support the expected growth in our HDD business, and continue the technology development efforts in our TFE growth initiatives. To date in 2021, we have closely managed cash and maintained the strength of our balance sheet, achieving a net increase in total cash, restricted cash and investments since year-end 2020.

“We continue to achieve momentum in each of our businesses and expect a return to revenue growth in 2022. Our confidence in the growth ahead reflects solidifying plans by our HDD customers to expand media manufacturing capacity over the next several years, as well as the U.S. Military’s continued investment in Intevac Photonics as a key technology provider for their digital night vision programs. We recently announced a new $16 million IDIQ award for Apache Helicopter night vision cameras and support, and we are the only technology provider actively working on all three of the U.S. Army’s development programs focused on enhancing the night vision performance of the IVAS dismounted soldier platform.” Mr. Blonigan concluded, “We believe the revenue growth ahead in both HDD and Photonics will be further bolstered by opportunities in new TFE growth markets for the Company.”
