– Q4 Gross Margin: 52.8% GAAP gross margin; 63.9% non-GAAP gross margin

– Q4 Diluted income per share: $0.02 GAAP diluted income per share; $0.29 non-GAAP diluted income per share

– Cash and cash equivalents: $748 million

PR Newswire

SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: MRVL), a leader in infrastructure semiconductor solutions, today reported financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and the full fiscal year, ended January 30, 2021.

Net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 was $798 million, which exceeded the midpoint of the Company’s guidance provided on December 3, 2020. GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 was $17 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 was $201 million, or $0.29 per diluted share. Cash flow from operations for the fourth quarter was $158 million.

Net revenue for fiscal 2021 was $3.0 billion. GAAP net loss for fiscal 2021 was $(277) million, or $(0.41) per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2021 was $627 million, or $0.92 per diluted share.

“Marvell ended fiscal year 2021 on a strong note with fourth quarter revenue exceeding the mid-point of guidance. We delivered outstanding fiscal year 2021 performance, with robust revenue growth of 10%, led by our networking business which grew 22% driven by strong 5G and Cloud product ramps,” said Matt Murphy, Marvell’s President and CEO. “The Marvell team has done an excellent job driving revenue growth, innovating to deliver new products, and positioning the company to emerge even stronger from the pandemic. We are excited about the numerous opportunities ahead in fiscal 2022. We anticipate strong growth in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, projecting revenue to grow approximately 15% year on year at the mid-point of guidance.”

Marvell’s first quarter guidance takes into account the U.S. Government’s export restrictions on certain Chinese customers. Given the ongoing uncertainty associated with COVID-19 and related public health measures, we also have temporarily widened the guidance range on net revenue. 

First Quarter of Fiscal 2022 Financial Outlook

  • Net revenue is expected to be $800 million +/- 5%.
  • GAAP gross margin is expected to be approximately 52.5%.
  • Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be approximately 63.5%.
  • GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $391 million.
  • Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $300 million.
  • Basic weighted-average shares outstanding are expected to be 677 million.
  • Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are expense to be 690 million.
  • GAAP diluted income (loss) per share is expected to be $(0.05) to $0.05 per share.
  • Non-GAAP diluted income per share is expected to be $0.23 to $0.31 per share.

Conference Call

Marvell will conduct a conference call on Wednesday, March 3, 2021 at 1:45 p.m. Pacific Time to discuss results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2021. Interested parties may join the conference call by dialing 1-844-647-5488 or 1-615-247-0258, passcode 1390587. The call will be webcast and can be accessed at the Marvell Investor Relations website at http://investor.marvell.com/ with a replay available following the call until Wednesday, March 10, 2021.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of share-based compensation expense, amortization of the inventory fair value adjustment associated with the Aquantia and Avera acquisitions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition and divestiture-related costs, restructuring and other related charges (including, but not limited to, asset impairment charges, employee severance costs, and facilities related charges), resolution of legal matters, and certain expenses and benefits that are driven primarily by discrete events that management does not consider to be directly related to Marvell’s core business.

Marvell uses a non-GAAP tax rate to compute the non-GAAP tax provision. This non-GAAP tax rate is based on Marvell’s estimated annual GAAP income tax forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Marvell’s non-GAAP income, as well as the effects of significant non-recurring and period specific tax items which vary in size and frequency. Marvell’s non-GAAP tax rate is determined on an annual basis and may be adjusted during the year to take into account events that may materially affect the non-GAAP tax rate such as tax law changes; significant changes in Marvell’s geographic mix of revenue and expenses; or changes to Marvell’s corporate structure. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, a non-GAAP tax rate of 5.0% has been applied to the non-GAAP financial results.

Marvell believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Marvell’s financial condition and results of operations. While Marvell uses non-GAAP financial measures as a tool to enhance its understanding of certain aspects of its financial performance, Marvell does not consider these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Consistent with this approach, Marvell believes that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures to the readers of its financial statements provides such readers with useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for GAAP financial measures, allows for greater transparency in the review of its financial and operational performance.

Externally, management believes that investors may find Marvell’s non-GAAP financial measures useful in their assessment of Marvell’s operating performance and the valuation of Marvell. Internally, Marvell’s non-GAAP financial measures are used in the following areas:

  • Management’s evaluation of Marvell’s operating performance;
  • Management’s establishment of internal operating budgets;
  • Management’s performance comparisons with internal forecasts and targeted business models; and
  • Management’s determination of the achievement and measurement of certain performance-based equity awards (adjustments may vary from award to award).

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of Marvell’s business as determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Marvell’s results as reported under GAAP. The exclusion of the above items from our GAAP financial metrics does not necessarily mean that these costs are unusual or infrequent.

Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual events or results may differ materially from those described in this press release due to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: the completion of the proposed transaction with Inphi Corporation on anticipated terms and timing or at all, including obtaining shareholder and regulatory approvals, anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities and other conditions to the completion of the transaction with Inphi; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction with Inphi, including as a result of delay in completing the transaction or our ability to integrate the businesses of Marvell and Inphi or due to unexpected costs, liabilities, delays or other factors impacting the semiconductor industry; our ability to obtain or consummate financing related to the Inphi transaction upon acceptable terms or at all; potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction with Inphi instituted against Marvell and Inphi and our respective directors; the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction with Inphi will harm our or Inphi’s business, including current plans and operations; the ability of Marvell or Inphi to retain and hire key personnel; potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction with Inphi; risks relating to the value of the shares to be issued in the Inphi transaction;

the impact of international conflict and economic volatility in either domestic or foreign markets including risks related to trade conflicts, regulations, and tariffs, including but not limited to, restrictions imposed on our Chinese customers; supply chain disruptions or component shortages that may impact the production of our products or may impact the price of components which in turn may impact our margins on any impacted products and any constrained availability from other electronic suppliers impacting our customers’ ability to ship their products, which in turn may adversely impact our sales to those customers; the risks associated with manufacturing and selling products and customers’ products outside of the United States; our ability to define, design and develop products for the 5G market; our ability to market our 5G products to Tier 1 infrastructure customers; our reliance on independent foundries and subcontractors for the manufacture, assembly and testing of our products; cancellations, rescheduling or deferrals of significant customer orders or shipments, as well as the ability of our customers to manage inventory; our ability to estimate customer demand and future sales accurately; our ability to realize the expected benefits from restructuring activities; the effects of transitioning to smaller geometry process technologies; the impact of any change in the income tax laws in jurisdictions where we operate and the loss of any beneficial tax treatment that Marvell currently enjoys; the risk of downturns in the semiconductor industry; the risk that we may not realize the anticipated benefits of our prior acquisitions and divestitures; our dependence upon the storage and networking markets, which are highly cyclical and intensely competitive; the outcome of pending or future litigation and legal and regulatory proceedings; our dependence on a small number of customers; the impact and costs associated with changes in international financial and regulatory conditions; our ability and the ability of our customers to successfully compete in the markets in which we serve; our ability and our customers’ ability to develop new and enhanced products and the adoption of those products in the market; decreases in gross margin and results of operations in the future due to a number of factors; our ability to scale our operations in response to changes in demand for existing or new products and services; risks associated with acquisition and consolidation activity in the semiconductor industry; the effects of any other potential acquisitions, divestitures or investments; Marvell’s ability to protect its intellectual property; our maintenance of an effective system of internal controls; severe financial hardship or bankruptcy of one or more of our major customers; and other risks detailed in our SEC filings from time to time. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect our business described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents filed by Marvell from time to time with the SEC.

Heritage Reports Fourth Quarter 2020 Results

PR Newswire

CLEARWATER, Fla., March 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: HRTG) (“Heritage” or the “Company”), a super-regional property and casualty insurance holding company, today reported fourth quarter 2020 financial results.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Highlights

  • Net income of $2.8 million, or $0.10 per diluted share.
  • Book value per share of $15.94, up 1.8% year-over-year.
  • Gross premiums written of $282.3 million, up 19.9% year-over-year.
  • Launched partnership with The Hartford to offer bundled home and auto policies.
  • Favorable prior year reserve development of $4.7 million.
  • Net current accident quarter weather losses of $38.9 million, up substantially from $15.3 million in the prior year quarter. Current accident quarter weather losses include $24.4 million of catastrophe losses and $14.5 million of other weather losses.
  • Total capital returned to shareholders of $1.7 million, reflecting $0.06 per share regular quarterly dividend.
  • Began writing homeowners insurance in Maryland, representing sixteenth active state.

Ernie Garateix, the Company’s CEO, said, “We were able to generate positive net income in the fourth quarter and full year and grow book value per share year-over-year despite experiencing unprecedented weather losses. I believe our solid organic growth platform and heightened focus on underwriting profitability position us well for 2021 and beyond.”

Quarterly Dividend
Heritage’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share on the Company’s common stock. The dividend will be paid on April 6, 2021 to shareholders of record as of March 15, 2021.

COVID-19 Update
We continue to monitor the short- and long-term impacts of COVID-19 and through December 31, 2020, we saw virtually no impact to our business. As a residential property insurer, we view our business as relatively insulated from a short-term economic slowdown, as property owners and renters generally view our products as a necessity. 

While we acknowledge uncertainties associated with future economic conditions, we do not expect a material impact to our business going forward. We will continue to monitor economic conditions and, in the case of a prolonged economic slowdown as a result of COVID-19, will take necessary actions to mitigate any negative impacts to our business, operations or financial results.

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 (amounts in thousands, except percentages and per share amounts):

Ratios

Ceded premium ratio represents ceded premiums as a percentage of gross premiums earned.

Net loss ratio represents net losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) as a percentage of net premiums earned.

Net expense ratio represents policy acquisition costs (“PAC”) and general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses as a percentage of net premiums earned. Ceding commission income is reported as a reduction of PAC and G&A expenses.

Net combined ratio represents the sum of net losses and LAE, PAC and G&A expenses as a percentage of net premiums earned.   The net combined ratio is a key measure of underwriting performance traditionally used in the property and casualty industry. A combined ratio under 100% generally reflects profitable underwriting results.

Quarterly Financial Results
Fourth quarter 2020 net income was $2.8 million, down from net income of $12.8 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease primarily stems from elevated weather losses, partly offset by a tax benefit in the current year quarter.  

Gross premiums written were $282.3 million, up 19.9% year-over-year, including growth in all states and product lines. Growth was partly attributable to rate increases, particularly in Florida

Premiums-in-force were $1.1 billion in fourth quarter 2020, representing a 17.6% annualized growth rate from third quarter 2020. The sequential increase stems from the same items impacting gross premiums written.

Gross premiums earned were $265.4 million in fourth quarter 2020, up 13.4% from $234.1 million in the prior year quarter. The increase reflects higher gross premiums written over the last twelve months.

The ceded premium ratio was 42.9% in fourth quarter 2020, down 1.1 points from 44.0% in the prior year quarter. The decrease primarily stems from gross premiums earned growth that modestly outpaced ceded premium growth and from year-end true-ups that benefited the current year quarter.

The net loss ratio was 70.4% in fourth quarter 2020, up 19.4 points from 51.0% in the prior year quarter. The increase primarily stems from higher current accident year weather losses.

The net expense ratio was 38.3% in fourth quarter 2020, unchanged from the prior year quarter.

The net combined ratio was 108.7% in fourth quarter 2020, up 19.4 points from 89.3% in the prior year quarter. The increase stems from a higher net loss ratio, as described above.

Book Value Analysis
Book value per share increased to $15.94 at December 31, 2020, up 1.8% year-over-year.

OpenEye, Alarm.com Integration Delivers Enhanced Video Verification of Intrusion and Alarm Events

OpenEye, Alarm.com Integration Delivers Enhanced Video Verification of Intrusion and Alarm Events

LIBERTY LAKE, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
OpenEye, The Cloud Video Platform, and Alarm.com (Nasdaq: ALRM) have completed a joint integration to offer businesses more robust security and intelligence solutions. The cloud-to-cloud integration links OpenEye’s powerful cloud-managed video platform, OpenEye Web Services (OWS), with Alarm.com’s cloud-based smart business security platform to provide users of both companies’ solutions with enhanced video verification capabilities and advanced real-time alert notifications.

The integration automatically pushes sensor and event data from linked Alarm.com for Business systems to OWS so subscribers get actionable alerts, video verification of critical events, and streamlined incident video search capabilities. Onsite OWS users can receive Alarm.com intrusion and access event alerts on-screen for active monitoring, while remote managers receive mobile push notifications. With OpenEye’s central station integrations, monitoring centers can provide critical visual and audio alarm verification services.

“Our integration with Alarm.com continues the expansion of our partner ecosystem and gives our customers the ability to leverage the strengths of both platforms to provide users with the best security and intelligence solution possible,” says Rick Sheppard CEO and Founder of OpenEye. “Users can now marry our cloud video platform, and the actionable intelligence of OWS, with Alarm.com’s trusted intrusion and access control solutions through their choice of either company’s service portals.”

Alarm.com for Business users have easy access to video from OpenEye’s video systems through this new integration – called OpenEye Cloud Connect – as well as camera recordings associated with access control, sensor and intrusion devices, directly on their Alarm.com for Business Activity Page. Events on the Activity Page include a link that opens the OWS Web Client in their browser to view video from linked cameras at the time an event occurred. Alarm.com for Business mobile users can select events with linked video that automatically opens the OpenEye mobile app showing the relevant video event.

OpenEye Cloud Connect lets Alarm.com for Business users take advantage of OpenEye’s leading cloud-based Video-Surveillance-as-a-Service (VSaaS) platform. Subscribers can filter and search for important events on the Alarm.com mobile app or web portal and have one-click access to corresponding OpenEye video footage. Connecting both platforms in the cloud reduces time spent manually searching for video footage of important events and creates a better user experience.

“Our teams have worked hard to integrate our platforms and enhance the value of our respective solutions for partners and end users,” said Jeff Bedell, chief strategy and innovation officer at Alarm.com. “As the shift to video-surveillance-as-a-service grows stronger, both Alarm.com and OpenEye now are well-positioned to meet the increasing needs of our customers. This is a significant step forward in the expansion of our commercial solutions.”

OpenEye is a subsidiary of Alarm.com, following an acquisition in 2019. For more information on OpenEye’s technology partners, please visit https://www.openeye.net/solutions/integrations.
