PALO ALTO, Calif., May 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- CPI International Holding Corp., the parent company of CPI International, Inc. (CPI), today announced financial results for its second quarter of fiscal year 2013 ended March 29, 2013. In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, CPI increased its orders, sales, net income and adjusted EBITDA results in comparison to the same quarter of the previous fiscal year. The company also recorded its highest second quarter sales and largest backlog level ever.

"CPI's second quarter saw a continuation of the positive momentum and trends that we have enjoyed in recent quarters. Our revenue and profitability continue to grow, demand for our products is healthy, and conditions within our end markets are stable. We have seen no measureable impact from sequestration and other potential government budget cuts; in fact, our defense market sales and orders each grew by double digits in the second quarter. Additionally, the integration of the Codan Satcom business into our North American facilities has gone smoothly, and this business has had a favorable impact on our communications market sales and orders results this year," said Joe Caldarelli, chief executive officer.
Orders
Orders booked during the first six months of fiscal 2013 totaled $264 million, an increase of 35 percent from the same period of the previous fiscal year. A major contributor to this increase was a sizeable multi-year order that was booked in the most recent period for CPI's advanced tactical common data link (TCDL) antenna products to support intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) military communications applications.
For the 12-month period ending on March 29, 2013, CPI's book-to-bill ratio was 1.13. As of that date, CPI's order backlog was $307 million, representing the company's highest ever level of backlog.
In comparison to the same period of the prior year, in the first six months of fiscal 2013, CPI's orders in its largest end markets were as follows:
- In the defense market, orders increased 17 percent to $93.0 million due to higher demand for several U.S. and foreign military radar systems and U.S. military electronic warfare systems.
- In the medical market, orders increased four percent to $40.7 million due to higher demand for x-ray imaging products from customers in Europe and North America.
- In the communications market, orders increased 84 percent to $112 million, benefitting from the aforementioned sizeable order for advanced TCDL antenna products for ISR applications. Shipments for this program are expected to begin in late fiscal 2013 and continue into fiscal 2015. In addition, orders to support other military communications and commercial broadcast applications increased. The most recent period also benefited from the inclusion of orders from the Codan Satcom business that CPI acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.
Sales
CPI's total sales equaled $102 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, increasing six percent from $96.5 million in the same quarter of the previous year. In comparison to that quarter, CPI's second quarter 2013 sales in its largest end markets were as follows:
- In the defense market, sales increased 18 percent to $41.7 million due to higher sales for several U.S. and foreign radar systems and a U.S. military electronic warfare system.
- In the medical market, sales decreased 11 percent to $17.9 million due to lower sales for x-ray imaging applications, driven by the timing of customer needs in China and Russia.
- In the communications market, sales increased 15 percent to $34.8 million due to the inclusion of revenues from the Codan Satcom business that CPI acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and higher sales for commercial communications applications.
Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA
CPI's net income totaled $1.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, improving from a $0.3 million net loss in the same quarter of the prior year. The increase in net income was principally due to higher total sales in the most recent quarter. Net income in the most recent quarter also benefited from a decrease in intangible asset amortization related to the February 2011 acquisition of CPI by The Veritas Capital Fund IV, L.P. Partially offsetting these positive factors, CPI incurred expenses related to the negotiation, closing and integration of acquisitions, including the integration of the Codan Satcom business into CPI, in the second quarter of fiscal 2013; there were no such expenses in the year-ago quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 totaled $16.2 million, or 15.9 percent of sales. CPI's adjusted EBITDA increased from $14.2 million, or 14.7 percent of sales, in the same quarter of the previous year, primarily due to higher total sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.
Cash Flow
As of March 29, 2013, CPI had cash and cash equivalents totaling $47.0 million. In the 12-month period ending on that date, CPI's cash flow from operating activities was $31.1 million, free cash flow was $25.2 million and adjusted free cash flow was $27.5 million.
Fiscal 2013 Outlook
For fiscal 2013, CPI expects:
- Total sales of between $415 million and $425 million;
- Adjusted EBITDA of between $66 million and $68 million; and
- Adjusted free cash flow of more than $17 million.
CPI expects its effective tax rate for fiscal 2013 will be approximately 39 percent.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow presented here are non-generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) financial measures. EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA further adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring, non-cash, unusual or other items. EBITDA margin represents EBITDA divided by sales. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA divided by sales. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures and patent application fees. Adjusted free cash flow represents free cash flow further adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring, unusual or other items.
CPI believes that GAAP-based financial information for leveraged businesses, such as the company's business, should be supplemented by EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow so that investors better understand the company's operating performance in connection with their analysis of the company's business. In addition, CPI's management team uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the company's operating performance, to monitor compliance with its senior credit facility, to make day-to-day operating decisions and as a component in the calculation of management bonuses. Other companies may define EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow differently and, as a result, the company's measures may not be directly comparable to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow of other companies. Because EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow do not include certain material costs, such as interest and taxes in the case of EBITDA-based measures, necessary to operate the company's business, when analyzing the company's business, these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, net income margin or other statements of income or statements of cash flows data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Certain statements included above constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the results projected, expected or implied by these forward-looking statements.
