Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
On August 1, 2024, Monolithic Power Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release regarding its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
 
Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated by reference herein is financial information and commentary regarding results of the quarter ended June 30, 2024. 
 
The information under Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 attached hereto are being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1934 Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
 
Item 8.01 Other Events.
 
The Company has maintained a classified board of directors (the “Board”) since its initial public offering in 2004. At the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”), a majority of the Company’s stockholders voted, on an advisory basis, in favor of a stockholder proposal to declassify the Company’s Board (the “Proposal”).
 
The Board has extensively discussed the merits of a classified Board, as well as the results of the stockholder vote on the Proposal. As part of the 2024 Annual Meeting, the Company also conducted significant outreach and engagement with its major stockholders and discussed various matters, including the Proposal. While the Board believes that the Company’s stockholders have benefited from having a classified Board, the Board determined on July 30, 2024 that, given the results of the Proposal, it is advisable to declassify the Board over a period of time. 
 
The Board intends to approve and recommend to the Company’s stockholders at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Board such that: (i) each class of directors will have one more election in which it is elected for a three-year term; (ii) at the Company’s 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, the Class III directors will be elected to a two-year term; (iii) at the Company’s 2029 annual meeting of stockholders, the Class I directors will be elected to a one-year term; and (iv) commencing with the Company’s 2030 annual meeting of stockholders, all directors will be elected to one-year terms at each annual meeting of stockholders. 
 
The Board believes the six-year plan outlined above is optimal for the following reasons:
 
Continuity and Stability: The Company takes a long-term view of its business strategy and maximization of stockholder value.  A six-year plan will offer each class of directors one final three-year term and provide the Board with additional time to plan for the transition from the classified structure that contributed to and protected the Company’s long-term stockholder value over the past 20 years.
 
Succession Planning: The Company continues to search for qualified director candidates over the next three years. Director candidates are attracted to companies with multi-year terms, and they will have sufficient time to immerse themselves in the Company’s complex business and operations and execute long-term initiatives. A shorter declassification plan would be disadvantageous to any newly elected directors because it will be more difficult for them to develop substantial knowledge and make significant contributions before they are up for election again.
 
The Board will continue its long-standing practice of director accountability each year through active engagement with the Company’s stockholders and implementation of changes based on the feedback received from the Company’s stockholders.

GAAP gross margin between 55.2% and 55.8%. Non-GAAP gross margin (1) between 55.5% and 56.1%, which excludes the impact from stock-based compensation and related expenses as well as the impact from amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.

(1) Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP other income, net, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP income before income taxes differ from net income, net income per share, gross margin, operating expenses, other income, net, operating income and income before income taxes determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, which include stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes in relation to the stock-based compensation, net deferred compensation plan expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and related tax effects. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP operating income excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP other income, net excludes the effect of deferred compensation plan income. Non-GAAP income before income taxes excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and net deferred compensation plan expense. Projected non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Projected non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A schedule reconciling non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release. MPS utilizes both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to assess what it believes to be its core operating performance and to evaluate and manage its internal business and assist in making financial operating decisions. MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an alternative presentation useful to investors’ understanding of MPS’s core operating results and trends. Additionally, MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an additional dimension of comparability to similar companies. However, investors should be aware that non-GAAP financial measures utilized by other companies are not likely to be comparable in most cases to the non-GAAP financial measures used by MPS.

Ongoing Business Conditions

 

MPS reported record quarterly revenue with Q2 2024 revenue of $507.4 million, exceeding the high end of our outlook. 

 

Our strong Q2 2024 revenue growth was attributed to three factors:

 

 

Increased demand for AI power solutions,

 

Stabilization and improving order trends in several of our end markets, and

 

Initial revenue ramps associated with design wins secured in past years.

 

Separately, we continued to expand and diversify our global supply chain to ensure supply stability and capture future growth. Overall, our proven strategy remains intact, and we believe we can swiftly adapt to market changes as they occur.

 

“As we have emphasized for many years, our results reflect the continued success of our proven, long-term growth strategy and our transformation from being only a chip supplier to a full solutions provider,” said Michael Hsing, CEO and founder of MPS. 

 

Revenue

 

MPS reported second quarter revenue of $507.4 million, 10.8% higher than the first quarter of 2024 and 15.0% higher than the second quarter of 2023. Compared with the first quarter of 2024, sales in Enterprise Data, Consumer, Storage and Computing, Industrial, and Automotive improved sequentially.

 

In our Enterprise Data market, second quarter 2024 revenue of $187.2 million increased 25.0% from the first quarter of 2024 primarily from growth in sales supporting server AI solutions. Second quarter 2024 Enterprise Data revenue was up 290.0% year over year. Enterprise Data revenue represented 36.9% of MPS’s second quarter 2024 revenue compared with 10.9% in the second quarter of 2023.

 

Second quarter Consumer revenue of $42.2 million increased 10.9% from the first quarter of 2024 primarily from sales in TV solutions. Second quarter 2024 Consumer revenue was down 35.3% year over year. Consumer revenue represented 8.3% of MPS’s second quarter 2024 revenue compared with 14.8% in the second quarter of 2023.

 

Storage and Computing revenue of $114.9 million increased 8.3% from the first quarter of 2024. The sequential increase was primarily from higher sales of products for storage solutions. Second quarter 2024 Storage and Computing revenue was down 7.7% year over year. Storage and Computing revenue represented 22.7% of MPS’s second quarter 2024 revenue compared with 28.2% in the second quarter of 2023.

 

Second quarter 2024 Industrial revenue of $32.3 million increased 6.8% from the first quarter of 2024 due to higher sales for security solutions. Second quarter 2024 Industrial revenue was down 35.0% year over year. Industrial revenue represented 6.4% of our total second quarter 2024 revenue compared with 11.3% in the second quarter of 2023.

Gross Margin & Operating Income

 

GAAP gross margin was 55.3%, 20 basis points higher than the first quarter of 2024. The quarter-over-quarter increase was attributed primarily to a favorable product mix. Our GAAP operating income was approximately $116.5 million compared to $95.5 million reported in the first quarter of 2024.

 

Non-GAAP gross margin for the second quarter of 2024 was 55.7%, flat to the first quarter of 2024. Our non-GAAP operating income was $171.0 million compared to $151.6 million reported in the first quarter of 2024.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Our GAAP operating expenses were $164.0 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared with $157.0 million in the first quarter of 2024.

 

Our Non-GAAP second quarter 2024 operating expenses were approximately $111.7 million, up from $103.4 million in the first quarter of 2024.

 

The differences between non-GAAP operating expenses and GAAP operating expenses for the quarters discussed here are primarily stock compensation and related expense and deferred compensation plan expense.

 

For the second quarter of 2024, total stock compensation and related expenses, including approximately $1.6 million charged to cost of goods sold, was $52.7 million compared with $51.8 million recorded in the first quarter of 2024.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

 

Cash, cash equivalents and investments were $1.31 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2024 compared to $1.29 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2024. For the quarter, MPS generated operating cash flow of approximately $141.0 million compared with the first quarter of 2024 operating cash flow of $248.0 million.

 

Accounts receivable ended the second quarter of 2024 at $157.9 million, representing 28 days of sales outstanding, which was 11 days lower than the 39 days reported at the end of the first quarter of 2024.

 

Our internal inventories at the end of the second quarter of 2024 were $426.8 million, up from $396.0 million at the end of the first quarter of 2024. Days of inventory of 171 days at the end of the second quarter of 2024 were 4 days lower than at the end of the first quarter of 2024.

 

We have carefully managed our internal inventories throughout the year, balancing the uncertainty in the market with being prepared to capture market upturns when they occur. Comparing current inventory levels using next quarter’s projected revenue, days of inventory decreased to 145 days at the end of the second quarter from 159 days at the end of the first quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This CFO Commentary contains references to certain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP other income, net, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP income before income taxes differ from net income, net income per share, gross margin, operating expenses, other income, net, operating income and income before income taxes determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, which include stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes in relation to the stock-based compensation, net deferred compensation plan expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and related tax effects. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP operating income excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP other income, net excludes the effect of deferred compensation plan income. Non-GAAP income before income taxes excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and net deferred compensation plan expense. Projected non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Projected non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A schedule reconciling non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release. MPS utilizes both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to assess what it believes to be its core operating performance and to evaluate and manage its internal business and assist in making financial operating decisions. MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an alternative presentation useful to investors’ understanding of MPS’s core operating results and trends. Additionally, MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an additional dimension of comparability to similar companies. However, investors should be aware that non-GAAP financial measures utilized by other companies are not likely to be comparable in most cases to the non-GAAP financial measures used by MPS.
