Richardson Electronics Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2008 Results and Declares Cash Dividend
Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RELL), a global provider of engineered solutions, today reported its results for the third quarter ended March 1, 2008. Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 were $138.9 million, up 3.7% from $133.9 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Gross profit, which includes a significant inventory write-down primarily due to changes in business focus within the Display Systems Group, declined to $31.2 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 compared with $32.1 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Net loss was $2.2 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2008, or $0.12 per diluted common share, as compared to net income of $1.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted common share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2007.
“Our sales growth during the quarter represents growth in all three of our core businesses,” said Edward J. Richardson, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Richardson Electronics, Ltd. “Excluding several significant items, on a non-GAAP basis, gross margin as a percentage of net sales improved by 0.5% while operating income during the third quarter improved to $3.5 million, compared to $1.4 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2007.”
“We have made significant changes to reduce the fixed costs within the Display Systems Group during the third quarter. There were more than 30 positions eliminated in the Display Systems Group that we expect will result in annual cost savings of over $3 million. In addition, we are aggressively addressing our challenges and taking advantage of other opportunities to improve the overall financial condition of our company. We are undertaking a realignment of our support structure that we believe will reduce our cost base and help us create a stronger company positioned to deliver sustainable, long-term growth and value for our shareholders,” added Mr. Richardson.

In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information relating to charges that the company believes impacts the comparability of its results of operations.
The company believes that such non-GAAP financial information is useful to investors to assist in assessing and understanding the company’s operating performance and underlying trends in the company’s business because management considers these charges and credits to be outside the company’s core operating results.
OUTLOOK
“While the outlook for the economy remains uncertain, we continue to make progress on several key initiatives and expect to improve our financial performance over the next several quarters. Our disciplined focus on reducing our fixed costs and improving working capital efficiency should help us continue to improve our overall cash flows,” said Ms. Dvorak.
“We look forward to delivering improved operating performance, continued sales growth, and creating value for our shareholders,” added Mr. Richardson.
