OAKLAND, Calif., Aug. 09, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DASAN Zhone Solutions, Inc. DZSI Company", ))), a global leader in fiber access transformation for enterprise and service provider networks, today reported its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and provided its outlook for the three months ending September 30, 2018 as well as a revised revenue outlook for the full year ending December 31, 2018.
Second Quarter 2018 Financial Performance:
- Second quarter revenue was $76.3 million, which was at the higher end of guidance, and reflected an increase of 27.2% year-over-year.
- GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 30.4%, which was at the mid-range of guidance, and reflected a decrease compared to 32.4% in the prior year period.
- GAAP operating profit and margin for the quarter was $2.6 million and 3.4%, respectively, as compared to a loss of $(0.8) million and a negative margin of (1.3)% for the second quarter of 2017.
- GAAP net income attributable to DASAN Zhone Solutions, Inc. for the quarter was $1.4 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $(0.8) million, or a loss of $(0.05) per diluted share for the second quarter of 2017.
- Non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses for the quarter were $19.8 million, which came in significantly below guidance of $20.7 million to $21.5 million.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $3.2 million and non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA margin was 4.2%, which exceeded Adjusted EBITDA guidance of between $1 million to $2.5 million. It was also a favorable compare on a year-over-year basis with non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA and margin of $0.9 million and 1.4%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2017. Non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to GAAP in the tables set forth in this release.
- Total cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash) as of June 30, 2018 were $27.3 million, compared to $17.5 million as of December 31, 2017. Including restricted cash, total cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2018 were $38.9 million, compared to $31.4 million as of December 31, 2017.
"We delivered on the higher end of our Q2 revenue expectations with continued momentum from our core fiber-to-the-home Broadband Access business, where we continue to see tremendous global success, particularly in India in the quarter," said Yung Kim, CEO of DASAN Zhone Solutions, Inc. "The outsized 27% double-digit revenue growth seen in the quarter was driven by a sizable contract with the Indian State Government of Andhra Pradesh to build out their next-generation high-speed optical fiber network infrastructure. The India market is an exciting one for us given significant greenfield opportunities, but we view India to be only opportunistically additive to our existing core business that is strong, globally diverse, and one that benefits from broad based opportunities across our 1,000 plus customers."
"As our Q2 results for the quarter demonstrate, we are making steady progress in growing our profitability. We achieved the mid-point of our guidance for gross margin of 30.4%, which reflected the impact of geographic mix. We successfully contained our adjusted operating expenses in the quarter by more than $1 million against prior guidance. As a result, we generated $3.2 million of Adjusted EBITDA, which greatly exceeded the guidance range of $1 million to $2.5 million," said Michael Golomb, CFO of DASAN Zhone Solutions, Inc. "We remain focused on growing our bottom-line as we scale our business over the long-term."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement DASAN Zhone's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, DASAN Zhone uses adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure DASAN Zhone believes is appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of DASAN Zhone's past financial performance and prospects for the future. These adjustments to GAAP results are made with the intent of providing greater transparency to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. These non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators that management uses as a basis for making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's operational performance, including the Company's ability to provide cash flows to invest in research and development, and to fund capital expenditures. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical operating results and comparisons to competitors' operating results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between net income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA is provided in a table immediately following the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) below.
