(a) The GAAP financial results included in this press release for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2014 do not include the impact of the amortization of acquired intangible assets in connection with the acquisition of u2t Photonics AG because the Company is in the process of obtaining a third-party valuation of such intangible assets and thus such impact has not yet been determined. The amount of such amortization of acquired intangible assets, when determined, is not expected to be material in the periods presented.
   
(b) In evaluating the operating performance of Finisar's business, Finisar management utilizes financial measures that exclude certain charges and credits required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, that are considered by management to be outside Finisar's core operating results. A reconciliation of Finisar's non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, as well as additional related information, can be found under the heading "Finisar Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
   

Financial Statement Highlights for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014:

  • Revenues increased to $306.0 million, up $12.0 million, or 4.1%, from $294.0 million in the preceding quarter.

  • The sale of products for datacom applications increased by $12.6 million, or 6.0%, compared to the preceding quarter.

  • The sale of products for telecom applications decreased by $0.6 million, or (0.7)%, compared to the preceding quarter, primarily driven by the impact of the full three months of the annual price reductions for telecom products that typically take effect on January 1st.

  • GAAP gross margin decreased to 31.7% from 35.9% in the preceding quarter, primarily driven by the impact of the full three months of the annual price reductions for telecom products that typically take effect on January 1st as well as the impact of the u2t Photonics AG acquisition whose products carry a lower than corporate average gross margin.

  • Non-GAAP gross margin decreased to 34.2% from 37.2% in the preceding quarter.

  • GAAP operating income decreased $11.5 million to $21.6 million, or 7.0% of revenues, compared to $33.1 million, or 11.3% of revenues in the preceding quarter.

  • Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments decreased $41.7 million to $513.0 million at the end of the fourth quarter, compared to $554.7 million at the end of the preceding quarter, principally as the result of the acquisition of u2t Photonics AG, an increase in accounts receivable of $29.6 million and capital expenditures associated with the build out of the second building at our new manufacturing site in Wuxi China.

FINISAR NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Finisar provides the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange Commissions: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP income per share. These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental information regarding the Company's operating performance on a non-GAAP basis that excludes certain gains, losses and charges of a non-cash nature or which occur relatively infrequently and which management considers to be outside our core operating results. Some of these non-GAAP measures also exclude the ongoing impact of historical business decisions made in different business and economic environments. Management believes that tracking non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share provides management and the investment community with valuable insight into our current operations, our ability to generate cash and the underlying business trends which are affecting our performance. These non-GAAP measures are used by both management and our Board of Directors, along with the comparable GAAP information, in evaluating our current performance and planning our future business activities. In particular, management finds it useful to exclude non-cash charges in order to better correlate our operating activities with our ability to generate cash from operations and to exclude certain cash charges as a means of more accurately predicting our liquidity requirements. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when used in conjunction with our GAAP financial information, also allow investors to better evaluate our financial performance in comparison to other periods and to other companies in our industry.

In calculating non-GAAP gross profit in this release, we have excluded the following items from cost of revenues in applicable periods:

  • Changes in excess and obsolete inventory reserve (predominantly non-cash charges or non-cash benefits);
  • Amortization of acquired technology (non-cash charges related to technology obtained in acquisitions);
  • Stock-based compensation expense (non-cash charges);
  • Impairment of acquired developed technology and other long-lived assets (non-cash charges);
  • Acquisition method accounting adjustment for sale of acquired inventory (non-cash charges);
  • Flood related recovery (non-recurring cash benefit);
  • Reduction in force costs (non-recurring cash charges); and
  • Acquisition related retention payments (non-recurring charges). 

In calculating non-GAAP operating income in this release, we have excluded the same items to the extent they are classified as operating expenses, and have also excluded the following items in applicable periods:

  • Gain or loss on litigation settlements and resolutions and related costs (non-recurring cash charges or benefits);
  • Gain on fair value re-measurement of contingent consideration (non-cash benefit);
