NI Achieves Record Revenue for a First Quarter, up 13 Percent YOY

By: via Business Wire

Company’s transformation continues to deliver improved operating performance

Q1 2023 Highlights

  • Revenue of $437 million, up 13 percent year-over-year
  • Q1 GAAP operating margin of 13%; non-GAAP operating margin of 23%
  • Diluted GAAP EPS of $0.35 and diluted non-GAAP EPS of $0.62
  • Cash flow from operations of $99 million

National Instruments Corporation (Nasdaq: NATI) today announced Q1 2023 revenue of $437 million, up 13 percent year-over-year, a record for a first quarter.

For Q1 2023, the value of the company's total orders was down 10 percent year-over-year, compared to a very strong Q1 2022. For Q1, year-over-year orders in the Americas region were down 12 percent, in EMEA orders were flat, and in APAC orders were down 15 percent.

In Q1, GAAP gross margin was 70 percent and non-GAAP gross margin was 72 percent. GAAP operating expenses were $247 million, up 5 percent year-over-year. Total non-GAAP operating expenses were up 2 percent year-over-year at $212 million. GAAP operating margin was 13 percent in Q1, with GAAP operating income of $57 million, up 86 percent year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating margin was 23 percent in Q1, with non-GAAP operating income of $102 million, up 55 percent year-over-year.

GAAP net income for Q1 was $47 million, with diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.35, and non-GAAP net income was $83 million, with non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.62.

“We delivered strong results with EPS and revenue above the midpoint of our guidance. Revenue for the first quarter was up 13 percent year over year and a record for a first quarter. For Q1, GAAP operating margin was up over 500 bps and non-GAAP operating margin was up over 600 bps as compared to the same quarter last year,” said Eric Starkloff, NI President and CEO. “We believe these results are a testament to the initiatives that we’ve executed since 2017 to transform NI into a company with higher growth, better profitability, and lower cyclicality. I'm proud of the performance of our team in a dynamic environment.”

“With supply chain constraints beginning to ease, we continued reducing our delinquent backlog as planned to support revenue growth despite a challenging economic environment. This dynamic also supported our continued gross margin expansion,” said Daniel Berenbaum, NI CFO. “GAAP and non-GAAP EPS were in the upper half of our guidance range, driven primarily by operational execution, as well as a lower-than-expected tax rate.”

As of March 31, 2023, NI had $138 million in cash and cash equivalents. During Q1, NI paid $37 million in dividends. The NI Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.28 per share payable on May 31, 2023, to stockholders of record on May 9, 2023.

Given the pending acquisition of NI by Emerson Electric Co., NI will not host an earnings conference call for first quarter results nor provide future guidance.

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, remeasurement gains and impairment losses related to 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.

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 and diluted EPS. A reconciliation of the adjustments to GAAP results is included in the tables below. 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.
