XICOR, INC.
Quarterly Period Ended September 10, 1995
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying financial information and notes thereto and Xicor's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994 and is qualified in its
entirety by the foregoing. The results of operations for the twelve and
thirty-six weeks ended September 10, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected in future periods.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales for the third quarter of 1995 were $27.9 million, an increase of
20% over third quarter 1994 sales of $23.3 million and 9% over second quarter
1995 sales of $25.7 million. The sales growth in the third quarter of 1995 was
due to strong 1995 bookings through the end of the quarter. While such bookings
have also resulted in a higher next quarter shippable backlog at the beginning
of the fourth quarter of 1995 than at the beginning of the prior quarter, sales
growth for the balance of 1995 is contingent on bookings remaining strong.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 38%, 39% and 41% for the
first, second and third quarters of 1995, respectively, compared to 31%, 34%
and 35% for the corresponding periods of 1994. The improvement over the 1994
quarters was due primarily to reduced depreciation expense and increased
manufacturing efficiencies. The sequential quarterly gross profit percentage
improvement during 1995 was due primarily to improved manufacturing
efficiencies resulting principally from increased production volumes.
Maintaining or increasing the gross profit percentage for the balance of 1995
is contingent upon product mix and prices and the successful execution of
Xicor's plans to further improve manufacturing efficiencies.
Research and development expenses were 14% of sales for the twelve and
thirty-six weeks ended September 10, 1995, compared to 14% and 13% for the
corresponding 1994 periods. Xicor is continuing to invest substantial funds in
the development of innovative proprietary products and an advanced
manufacturing process with the goal of further improving the gross profit
percentage by increasing the proportion of higher margin proprietary products
and by improving manufacturing efficiencies.
-7-
<PAGE> 8
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
remained relatively constant in the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended September
10, 1995 compared to the corresponding periods of 1994.
Interest expense in each of the first three quarters of 1995 was
relatively flat compared to the corresponding 1994 periods. Interest expense
is expected to increase substantially in 1996 due to the planned financing of
certain capital equipment additions.
Interest income increased in each of the three quarters of 1995
compared to the corresponding quarters of 1994 primarily due to an increase in
the average balance invested as a result of funds generated from operations.
The provision for income taxes for the twelve and thirty-six weeks
ended September 10, 1995 and September 11, 1994 consisted primarily of federal
and state minimum taxes, which result from limitations on the use of net
operating loss carryforwards, and foreign taxes. Net deferred tax assets of
$38 million at December 31, 1994 remain fully reserved because of the
uncertainty regarding the ultimate realization of these assets.
FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE RESULTS
The semiconductor industry is highly competitive and characterized by
rapidly changing technology and steadily declining product prices. Xicor's
results of operations are affected by a wide variety of factors, including
general economic conditions and conditions specific to the semiconductor
industry, decreases in average selling price over the life of any particular
product, the timing of new product introductions (both by Xicor and
competitors), availability of new manufacturing technologies and the ability to
secure intellectual property rights in a rapidly evolving market. The sales
level in any specific quarter is also a function of orders received during that
quarter, as customers continue to shorten lead times for purchase commitments.
Consistent with industry practice, customer orders are generally subject to
cancellation by the customer without penalty. Xicor may be at a disadvantage
in competing with major domestic and foreign concerns that have significant
financial resources, established and diverse product lines, worldwide
vertically integrated production facilities and extensive research and
development staffs.
The semiconductor industry is also characterized by substantial
capital and research and development investment for products and processes.
The rapid rate of technological change within the industry requires Xicor to
continually develop new and improved products and processes to maintain its
competitive
-8-
<PAGE> 9
position. Xicor expects to continue to invest in the research and development
of new products and manufacturing processes in 1995 and beyond, although there
can be no assurances that such research and development efforts or new products
will be successful.
Due to the foregoing and other factors, past results are a much less
reliable predictor of the future than is the case in many older, more stable
and less dynamic industries. In addition, the securities of many high
technology companies have historically been subject to extensive price and
volume fluctuations which may adversely affect the market price of their common
stock.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At September 10, 1995, Xicor had $30.6 million in cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments compared to $20.6 million at December
31, 1994. During the thirty-six weeks ended September 10, 1995, Xicor
generated $13.4 million of cash from operating activities which was partially
offset by principal payments on lease debt and equipment purchases.
Planned capital expenditures for the balance of 1995 are presently
expected to be approximately $14 million consisting principally of production
equipment to support anticipated sales growth in 1996 and beyond. Initially
some of this equipment will be used in the development of an advanced
manufacturing process and related products currently under development. Lease
financing has been arranged for approximately $8.5 million of the equipment.
Xicor is presently investigating additional equipment financing. As of
September 10, 1995 Xicor had entered into commitments for equipment purchases
aggregating approximately $13.5 million.
Xicor has a line of credit agreement with a financial institution that
expires March 31, 1996, provides for borrowings of up to $7.5 million against
eligible accounts receivable and is secured by all of Xicor's assets. Interest
on borrowings is charged at the prime lending rate plus 3% and is payable
monthly. At September 10, 1995, the entire $7.5 million was available to Xicor
based on the eligible accounts receivable balances and the borrowing formulas.
To date, no amounts have been borrowed under this line of credit.
Management believes that currently available cash and equipment
financing and expected cash flow from operations will be adequate to support
Xicor's operations for the next twelve months.
