SRS Labs Reports Second Quarter 2010 Results
SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- SRS Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRSL), the industry leader in surround sound, audio and voice technologies, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.
Revenues in the second quarter 2010 increased 42% to $7.2 million from $5.1 million in the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily attributable to increased revenues in the home entertainment and personal computer markets.
Operating expenses in the second quarter increased 23% to $6.5 million from $5.3 million in the same quarter a year ago. The increase was primarily attributable to the continued investment in additional sales, marketing and engineering infrastructure, and increased participation and promotion at several trade shows.
Net income in the second quarter totaled $631,000 or $0.04 per diluted share, an improvement from a net loss of $198,000 or $(0.01) per diluted share in the second quarter of 2009.
Quarter-end cash and cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments totaled $42.3 million or $2.71 per diluted share as of June 30, 2010, compared to $41.8 million at the end of the prior quarter.
Management Commentary
“The second quarter of 2010 marks the seventh consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth for the company,” said Thomas C.K. Yuen, SRS Lab’s Chairman and CEO. “This accomplishment reflects the strong global demand for SRS technology solutions. We also achieved a substantial increase in our net income due to the significant leverage in our business model of high incremental operating margins.
“Moreover, market and consumption indicators point to the continued strong demand of consumer electronics in the foreseeable future. This anticipated growth coupled with increasing consumer interest and desire to access high-quality audio and video content bodes well for our business strategy which focuses on developing and delivering premium quality audio solutions for rich media-capable consumer electronics devices in the TV, PC and mobile phone segments. As this growth momentum occurs, we believe SRS is strategically positioned to strongly benefit in revenue expansion due to our industry leading technologies.”
Yuen added, “In light of the record results we achieved in the first half of this year, we are raising our 2010 full year guidance from 25% to 30% revenue growth, with improved operating margins. Based on contracts signed, contracts in negotiation and design wins in progress, we expect that our revenue growth rate for 2011 will be in excess of 25%. In order to sustain such growth rates and take advantage of anticipated new market opportunities, we will continue to invest in additional key engineering, sales and marketing personnel.”
