On July 1, 2008 the Company divested its Personal Communications Division ('PCD') which has historically represented a significant portion of the Company's revenues. On December 18, 2008 the Company announced actions to wind down its Korea-based handset manufacturing operations by July 2009. To enable a comparison of the financial results for the Company on a year-over-year basis the Company has prepared certain pro forma non-GAAP results which present the Company's results as if both the divestiture of PCD and the wind down of the Company's Korea-based handset operations were completed prior to each time period presented. The reconciliation between GAAP and these pro forma non-GAAP financial measures is provided at the end of this press release and on the Company's website.

Fourth Quarter 2008 Financial Results

Net sales for the fourth quarter 2008 were $241 million as compared to $806 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. Gross margins for the fourth quarter 2008 were 12.4% as compared to 12.7% in the fourth quarter of 2007. The operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 2007 was $79 million and $53 million, respectively. The fourth quarter 2008 pro forma non-GAAP revenue was $149 million, the pro forma non-GAAP gross margin was 22.8% and the pro forma non-GAAP operating loss was $70 million. This compares to the fourth quarter 2007 pro forma non-GAAP revenue of $246 million, the pro forma non-GAAP gross margin of 26.8% and the pro forma non-GAAP operating loss of $74 million. The decrease in pro forma non-GAAP revenues and pro forma non-GAAP gross margins primarily reflects the expected volume decline in our PAS business.

The GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $80.9 million, or a loss of $0.65 per share, as compared to a loss of $24.6 million, or $0.20 per share in the fourth quarter of 2007.

The fourth quarter GAAP gross profit of $30 million was impacted by the following significant items:

  • The Company recorded an increase of $18.5 million in inventory reserves primarily related to the Korea-based handset operations.
  • The Company's Broadband segment recorded an additional loss reserve of approximately $6.0 million related to its large infrastructure project in India.

The fourth quarter GAAP operating expenses of $109 million were impacted by the following significant items:

  • Recording a $13.1 million restructuring charge related to the actions announced on December 18, 2008 largely comprised of severance payment accruals.
  • Recording a $27.2 million non cash asset impairment relating to long-lived assets (primarily intangible assets, equipment and capitalized software).
  • Reduction of 2008 bonus accruals by $9.0 million.

Net cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2008 was $314 million compared to $180 million on December 31, 2007. The increase reflects the sale of PCD partially offset by usage of cash flow from operations.

Full Year 2008 Financial Results

Net sales for the year 2008 were $1.6 billion as compared to $2.5 billion for the year 2007. Gross margins for the year 2008 were 15.9% as compared to 13.0% in 2007. The operating loss for the full year 2008 and 2007 was $176 million and $212 million, respectively. The full year 2008 pro forma non-GAAP revenue, gross margins and operating loss were $634 million, 29.7% and $199 million, respectively. This compares to the full year 2007 pro forma non-GAAP revenue, gross margins and operating loss of $803 million, 27.4% and $251 million, respectively. The decrease in pro forma non-GAAP revenues primarily reflects the expected volume decline in our PAS business.

The GAAP net loss for the full year 2008 was $150.3 million, or a loss of $1.22 per share, as compared to a loss of $195.6 million, or $1.62 per share in the prior year.

'Our fourth quarter results reflect the significant changes we made during the year to both simplify the Company and to focus on our core business,' said
Peter Blackmore, UTStarcom's chief executive officer and president. 'Importantly we ended the year with net cash and short term investments of $314 million. During the fourth quarter we also announced aggressive actions to further reduce our operating expenses and streamline our business. We shall continue to drive further reductions in expenses during 2009 as we focus on growing revenues in our core IP based product portfolio.'

Going Concern

As a result of the Company's history of recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations, the Company expects its independent registered public accounting firm will issue a going concern uncertainty explanatory paragraph in its audit report on the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008.

However, management believes that if the Company is able to achieve its projected sales in 2009 and contain expenses and cash used in operations to the levels contemplated in the Company's 2009 financial plan, the Company will have sufficient liquidity to finance its anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months.

Q1 2009 Guidance

During the conference call management will provide financial guidance for the first quarter of 2009. Due to the current economic climate the Company will not provide annual guidance.

Conference Call

The Company will host a conference call to discuss the results at 2:00 p.m. (PST) / 5:00 p.m. (EST) on February 26, 2009. The conference call dial-in numbers are as follows: United States 888-889-1058; International 706-634-2327. The conference ID number is 86513483.

Discussion of Pro Forma Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In order to provide both management and investors with a more complete understanding of UTStarcom's underlying results and trends in light of the PCD divestiture and planned wind down of its Korea-based handset manufacturing operations, UTStarcom has prepared reconciliation tables for comparing GAAP results to non-GAAP measures of revenues, gross profits, operating expenses and operating profit (loss), along with an abbreviated, pro forma non-GAAP profit and loss statement based on these non-GAAP measures. The pro forma non-GAAP measures present the Company's results as if both the July 2008 divestiture of the Company's Personal Communications Division and the wind down of the Company's Korea-based handset operations were completed prior to each time period below.

In addition, these pro forma non-GAAP measures are among the information management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

    To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented on
    a GAAP basis, UTStarcom uses certain pro forma non-GAAP measures which
    are adjusted to present those metrics as if both PCD had been divested
    and Korea BU had been wound down prior to each time period reflected
    below.  We believe this enables year over year comparisons to our recent
    financial results.  These adjustments to our GAAP results are made with
    the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete
    understanding of UTStarcom's underlying results and trends.  In addition,
    these adjusted pro forma non-GAAP results are among the information
    management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future
    periods.  The presentation of this additional information is not meant to
    be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in
    accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
