Management Comments
"The results in the third quarter of our 2018 fiscal year continue to highlight the capability of two strong business segments well-positioned in two strong markets," commented Steve Schwartz, CEO of Brooks Automation. "Revenue growth of 23% year over year was driven by both segments with 20% growth in our Semiconductor business unit, and 35% growth in Life Sciences. The acquisitions in this quarter of Tec-Sem, which added to our Semiconductor reticle stocker offerings, and BioSpeciMan, which added reach and customer relationships in Canada to our Life Science's biostorage offerings, will further enhance our growth capability going forward."

GAAP Summary
Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 increased 8% to $223 million compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Gross profits increased 6% from the second quarter of fiscal 2018, providing gross margins of 39.9%, 70 bps below the second quarter. Operating expense of $62 million increased 3%, or $2 million, primarily driven by the two acquisitions that closed in April 2018. Income tax expense totaled $3 million. GAAP net income in the quarter was $23 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.32.

The amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges, impact of purchase price accounting adjustments, charges related to M&A and special charges are appropriately included in the GAAP summary of earnings discussed above. The impact on earnings of such non-GAAP adjustments is referenced in the unaudited table included within this press release.

In the following analysis of the non-GAAP results, Brooks adjusted the GAAP results for the impact of amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges, purchase price accounting adjustments and charges related to M&A to provide investors better perspective on the results of operations, which the Company believes is more comparable to the similar analysis provided by its peers. Brooks also excludes special charges or gains, such as impairment losses, gains or losses from the sale of assets, as well as other gains and charges that are assessed to not be representative of the normal operations of the business.

Results of Q3 Fiscal 2018 (Non-GAAP Discussion)
Third quarter non-GAAP net income was $32 million, resulting in non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.46. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $28 million and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.40 in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, and non-GAAP net income of $25 million and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.36 in the third quarter of fiscal 2017. Compared sequentially to the second quarter, the Company reported 80 basis points expansion at the non-GAAP operating profit margin line and the non-GAAP net income margin line in the third quarter. The primary driver of the margin expansion was 8% revenue growth with only 3% growth of non-GAAP operating expense.

As noted above, revenue for the third fiscal quarter of 2018 was $223 million, up 8% compared to the second fiscal quarter of 2018. The Semiconductor Solutions segment revenue was higher in the third quarter compared to the second quarter by $15 million, or 9%, at $174 million. The Life Sciences segment revenue grew $1 million, or 2%, sequentially to $50 million. The Life Sciences segment revenue increased 35% year-over-year in total and 13% on an organic basis.

Adjusted gross margin, which excludes amortization and purchase accounting impacts, was 40.9% in the third quarter, slightly below the prior quarter by 20 basis points. The Semiconductor Solutions segment non-GAAP adjusted gross margin was 41.7% in the third quarter, which was 20 basis points higher than last quarter's results reflecting improved margins in vacuum automation. The Life Sciences segment non-GAAP adjusted gross margin was 38.1% in the third quarter, 170 basis points lower than the second quarter, primarily driven by higher costs in store systems. In summary, the total Brooks non-GAAP adjusted gross profit increased by 7% or $6 million compared to the second quarter, driven primarily by the revenue growth and improved gross margins in Semiconductor Solutions.

The Company's non-GAAP tax rate in the quarter was 10%, approximately flat to the second quarter tax rate. The non-GAAP tax provision in the third quarter was $3 million, which increased $0.2 million compared to the second quarter.

Cash flow from operations was $19 million in the third quarter. The company made payments of $18 million for acquisitions and paid $7 million in dividends. The total of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities reported was $232 million as of June 30, 2018.

Quarterly Cash Dividend
The Company additionally announced that the Board of Directors has reiterated a dividend of $0.10 per share payable on September 28, 2018 to stockholders of record on September 7, 2018. Future dividend declarations, as well as the record and payment dates for such dividends, are subject to the final determination of the Company's Board of Directors.

Guidance for Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2018
The Company announced revenue and earnings guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. Revenue is expected to be in the range of $203 million to $213 million and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $0.35 to $0.43. GAAP diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter is expected to be in the range of $0.21 to $0.28, reflecting the impact of amortization, purchase price accounting, and anticipated restructuring charges.

Notes on Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

These financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Management adjusted the GAAP results for the impact of amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges, purchase price accounting adjustments and charges related to M&A to provide investors better perspective on the results of operations which the Company believes is more comparable to the similar analysis provided by its peers. Management also excludes special charges and gains, such as impairment losses, gains and losses from the sale of assets, as well as other gains and charges that are not representative of the normal operations of the business. In this context, the Company has also removed the effect of reversing the valuation allowance reserve on the U.S. deferred income tax assets. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single measure.
