LIVERMORE, Calif. — January 28, 2009 — FormFactor, Inc. (Nasdaq: FORM) today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, that ended on December 27, 2008.

For fiscal 2008, FormFactor posted revenue of $210.2 million, down 54.5% from $462.2 million in fiscal 2007.

 

Net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 was $30.0 million or $(0.61) per share, which included $3.3 million or $0.07 per share of stock-based compensation, net of tax. This compares to net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 of $14.0 million or $(0.29) per share, which included $3.3 million or $0.07 per share of stock-based compensation, net of tax and a one-time tax benefit of $2.8 million or $0.06 per share from the settlement of certain tax audits. Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 was $14.4 million or $0.29 per share on a fully diluted basis, which included $4.3 million or $0.09 per share of stock-based compensation, net of tax. The fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 results also include $4.9 million in pre-tax non-cash restructuring and asset impairment charges related to a write-down of a Livermore facility held for sale and in-progress construction assets in Singapore as well as a $4.1 million pre-tax charge for bad debt reserve.

 

Net loss for fiscal 2008 was $80.6 million or $(1.65) per share, which included $15.7 million, or $0.32 per share of stock-based compensation, net of tax, compared to net income of $72.9 million or $1.47 per share on a fully diluted basis for fiscal 2007, which included $17.2 million, or $0.35 per share of stock-based compensation, net of tax. Net loss for fiscal 2008 includes $9.2 million in pre-tax restructuring charges, $4.4 million in pre-tax non-cash asset impairment charges as well as a $4.1 million pre-tax charge for bad debt reserve as noted above.

 

“The global economic slowdown has significantly reduced demand for semiconductor devices in general, and for memory devices in particular,” said Mario Ruscev, CEO of FormFactor.  “We have worked to align our operating plans and structure with the current business environment in order to improve our operating efficiency.  We move into 2009 with a broad range of outstanding products and a firm commitment to innovation and continuous product improvement.  Overall, we remain focused on increasing our customers’ test efficiency.”
