Parade Technologies Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Financial Highlights:

  • Q322 consolidated revenue US$151.04 million, compared with US$191.72 million in the year-ago quarter
  • Q322 consolidated net income US$32.64 million; Basic and Fully diluted after-tax EPS US$0.41 (NT$12.38) and US$0.40 (NT$12.21), respectively

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Parade Technologies, Ltd. (Taipei Exchange: 4966.TWO), a leading high-speed interface IC supplier, today announced financial results for the third quarter fiscal year 2022 ended September 30, 2022, and provided guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022.

Consolidated revenue was US$151.04 million and consolidated net income was US$32.64 million. Basic and fully diluted after-tax earnings per share (“EPS”) were US$0.41 (NT$12.38) and US$0.40 (NT$12.21), respectively. These results compared to consolidated revenue US$191.72 million and consolidated net income of US$53.34 million, or US$0.67 (NT$18.71) and US$0.66 (NT$18.34) per basic and fully diluted share, in the year-ago quarter.

In US dollars, the third quarter of 2022 consolidated revenue decreased 30.30% sequentially and was down 21.22% year-over-year.

The gross profit in the third quarter of 2022 was US$68.37 million, representing a decrease of 33.20% from the previous quarter and a decrease of 27.37% compared to the same quarter of last year.

On September 14, 2022, Parade announced redriver additions to its portfolio of HDMI™ 2.1/2.0 interface and signal conditioning devices. The new PS8219 HDMI 2.1 redriver and PS8210 HDMI 2.0 redriver are pin compatible with the PS8419 HDMI 2.1 retimer currently in high-volume production. The PS8419/P8219/PS8210 pin compatibility provides OEMs with the ability to quickly switch between the retimer option for best performance and the redriver option for lowest power in less challenging signaling environments. This greatly lowers the risk to OEMs for a PCB redesign at a later time, due to compliance or production issues, offering improved time-to-market for end products.

On September 7, 2022, Parade announced the availability of the PS8570 PCI Express 4.0 16Gbps linear redriver for PC, server and datacenter applications. The PS8570 features a quad-channel unidirectional linear redriver with a 2×2 crossbar switch. The PS8570 is fully compliant with the PCI Express 4.0 specification. The PS8570 features the industry’s lowest operating power for a PCIe 4 linear redriver. OEMs can enable PCIe 4 16Gbps support for power-sensitive mobile devices. The 2×2 crossbar switch allows for flexible interconnect configurations for high performance systems.

Based on current business outlook, Parade is providing the following guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022:

  • Revenue: US$100.0 ~110.0 Million
  • Gross Margin: 43.5% ~47.5%
  • Operating Expense: US$29.0 ~32.0 Million

The financial figures detailed above for the third quarter of 2022 have been reviewed by independent accountants.
