NI Reports Record Orders for a First Quarter, up 27 Percent Year Over Year

Company shares new three year model for margin expansion

Q1 2022 Highlights

  • Revenue of $385 million, up 15 percent year-over-year in a challenging supply chain environment
  • Record orders for a first quarter, up 27 percent year over year
  • Strong double digit order growth across all business units and regions
  • Diluted GAAP EPS of $0.19 and diluted non-GAAP EPS of $0.41

National Instruments Corporation (Nasdaq: NATI) today announced Q1 2022 revenue of $385 million, up 15 percent year-over-year, a record for a first quarter.

For Q1 2022, the value of the company's total orders was up 27 percent year-over-year. For Q1, year-over-year orders in the Americas region were up 40 percent, in EMEA orders were up 22 percent, and in APAC orders were up 17 percent.

In Q1, GAAP gross margin was 69 percent and non-GAAP gross margin was 71 percent. GAAP operating expenses were $235 million, up 2 percent year-over-year. Total non-GAAP operating expenses were up 3 percent year-over-year at $208 million. GAAP operating margin was 8 percent in Q1, with GAAP operating income of $31 million, up 220 percent year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating margin was 17 percent in Q1, with non-GAAP operating income of $66 million, up 28 percent year-over-year.

GAAP net income for Q1 was $25 million, with diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.19, and non-GAAP net income was $54 million, with non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.41.

“Demand exceeded expectations in the first quarter with record orders for a first quarter up 27 percent year over year. Orders serve as the leading indicator in our business and a direct result of our strategic initiatives,” said Eric Starkloff, NI president and CEO. “Our focus on high growth areas such as electric and autonomous vehicles, wireless communications, and new space technologies, brings us confidence in our ability to grow faster than the overall market. The flexible, modular test solutions we provide are built on our leading interoperable software that enables customers to automate their test processes to bring their products to market faster and with high quality."

“We continue to strengthen our competitive advantages and make our business more scalable. Our strategy proved to be resilient as we navigated lack of component availability and the widely publicized logistics challenges facing our industry in the first quarter,” said Karen Rapp, NI CFO. “Given the current supply uncertainty, we are widening our 2022 target to 12 percent to 18 percent revenue growth year over year. We remain focused on margin expansion and are targeting an increase of our non-GAAP operating margin by 100 bps each year starting this year through 2025.”

As of March 31, 2022, NI had $143 million in cash and cash equivalents. During Q1, NI paid $37 million in dividends and repurchased approximately 772,000 shares of our common stock at an average price of $40.74 per share. The NI Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.28 per share payable on May 31, 2022, to stockholders of record on May 9, 2022.

The company’s non-GAAP results exclude, as applicable, the impact of purchase accounting fair value adjustments, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, taxes levied on the transfer of acquired intellectual property, foreign exchange gain/loss on acquisitions, restructuring charges, tax reform charges, disposal gain/loss on buildings and related charitable contributions, tax effects related to businesses held for sale, gain/loss on sale of business, impairment losses on equity-method investments, and capitalization and amortization of internally developed software costs. Reconciliations of the company’s GAAP and non-GAAP results are included as part of this news release.

Q2 2022 Guidance

  • GAAP revenue to be in the range of $370 million to $410 million
  • GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.15
  • Non-GAAP diluted EPS expected to be in the range of $0.25 to $0.39

Conference Call Information

NI management will discuss Q1 2022 results today, April 28, at 4:00 p.m. CT at www.ni.com/call or dial (855) 212-2361 and enter confirmation code 4984403.

Non-GAAP Presentation

To supplement NI’s financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, NI has provided non-GAAP financial information, including non-GAAP revenue or net sales, gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, operating margin, provision for income taxes, net income, net margin, EPS and diluted EPS and non-GAAP guidance for diluted EPS. A reconciliation of the adjustments to GAAP results is included in the tables below. The company is not able to provide guidance on its GAAP tax rate or a related reconciliation without unreasonable efforts since its future GAAP tax rate depends on its future stock price and related information that is not currently available. Non-GAAP financial information is not meant as a substitute for GAAP results, but is included because management believes such information is useful to our investors for informational and comparative purposes. In addition, certain non-GAAP financial information is used internally by management to evaluate and manage the company. The non-GAAP financial information used by NI may differ from that used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
