ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., May 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EMCORE Corporation (Nasdaq: EMKR), a leading provider of compound semiconductor-based components and subsystems for the broadband, fiber optic, satellite, and terrestrial solar power markets, today announced preliminary unaudited financial results for its second quarter ended March 31, 2008.
Consolidated revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 totaled approximately $56.3 million. This represents a revenue increase of over 42% when compared to $39.6 million of revenue reported in the same period last year. This also represents a revenue increase of 20% when compared to the prior quarter. Consolidated revenue for the six months ended March 31, 2008 totaled approximately $103.2 million. This represents a revenue increase of 32% when compared to $78.2 million of revenue reported in the same period last year. Both of the Company's operating segments posted increases in quarterly revenue when compared year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter.
For the three months ended March 31, 2008, revenue from the Company's Fiber Optics segment increased $11.4 million or 44% to $37.6 million from $26.2 million, as reported in the same period last year. For the six months ended March 31, 2008, Fiber Optics revenue increased $20.0 million or 39% to $71.6 million from $51.6 million, as reported in the same period last year. Sequentially, Fiber Optics revenue increased over 10% from $34 million. The increase in revenue was due to our acquisition of the telecom-related assets of Intel's Optical Platform Division and a significant increase in quarterly revenue from the Company's datacom product lines.
Photovoltaics revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2008 increased $5.2 million or 39% to $18.6 million from $13.4 million as reported in the same period last year.

Sequentially, Photovoltaics revenue increased over 44% from $12.9 million. The significant increase in revenue was due to new product and business introduction of concentrator photovoltaics (CPV) for solar power applications. Total revenue from CPV components and systems was $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, which represents over a ten-fold increase in revenues when compared quarter-over-quarter. CPV-related revenue is expected to increase dramatically in the June quarter as production ramps on multiple manufacturing lines. During the quarter, the Company also experienced increased demand for its satellite solar cells and related products.
Excluding stock-based compensation expense, Fiber Optics gross margins were 24.3% and 24.2% for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008, respectively. This represents an increase in gross margin from 17% as reported for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and an increase in gross margin from 19% as reported for the six months ended March 31, 2007. Fiber Optics gross margin also increased from the prior quarter, which was 24% as reported, The increase in Fiber Optics gross margins is primarily due to increased revenue, facility consolidation, and other restructuring efforts completed by the Company in the prior year.
During the March quarter, the Company took one-time charges of approximately $6.3 million in its Photovoltaics segment for inventory write-downs and start-up costs in our solar cell receiver line and CPV system business. Our Albuquerque fab capacity increased by approximately 35% during the quarter. Excluding stock-based compensation expense and these non recurring charges, Photovoltaics gross margin were 22%, an increase from 17% in the previous quarter. On a GAAP basis, Photovoltaics gross margins were negative 12% and 0% for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008, respectively, adversely impacted by the non-recurring charges.
Adjusted gross profit and gross margin of the consolidated business was $12.9 million or 23% for the three months ending March 31, 2008. On a GAAP basis, consolidated gross margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was approximately 12%, as adversely impacted by the $6.3 million of non-recurring charges. This represents a decrease from 18% gross margin as reported in the same period last year. Consolidated gross margin for the six months ended March 31, 2008 was approximately 16%, which was slightly higher than gross margin reported in the same period last year.
Operating expenses for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2008 totaled $19.6 million and $38.9 million, respectively. This represents a decrease in operating expense when compared year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter. Excluding stock-based compensation expense and other non-recurring charges, operating expenses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 totaled $19.1 million and $35.4 million, respectively. This represents a an increase in operating expenses of $2.9 million when compared to the prior quarter. A significant portion of this increase in operating expenses was due to acquisition-related and new product and business introduction costs. During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company incurred over $1.6 million in operating expenses associated with the acquisition of Intel's telecom division and transitional services being provided by Intel. Operating expenses also increased approximately $1.3 million in the quarter due to costs incurred developing new product and business opportunities for the Company's new terrestrial solar power product lines.
Operating loss for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2008 totaled $12.9 million and $22.1 million, respectively. This represents a decrease in operating loss when compared year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter. Excluding stock-based compensation expense and other non-recurring charges, our adjusted operating loss for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 totaled $6.0 million and $11.9 million, respectively.
In January 2008, the Company entered into agreements with holders of approximately 97.5%, or approximately $83.3 million of its outstanding 5.50% convertible subordinated notes due 2011 (the "Notes") pursuant to which the holders converted their Notes into the Company's common stock. In addition, the Company called for redemption all of its remaining outstanding Notes. Upon conversion of the Notes, the Company issued shares of its common stock, based on a conversion price of $7.01, in accordance with the terms of the Notes. To incentivize certain holders to convert their Notes, the Company made cash payments to such holders equal to 4% of the principal amount of the Notes converted, plus accrued interest. The Company recognized a loss totaling $4.7 million on the conversion of Notes to equity. The Notes conversion resulted in a reduction of future interest payments of approximately $4.7 million, on an annual basis, through May 2011.
Excluding stock-based compensation expense and other non-recurring charges, our adjusted net loss for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 totaled $6.0 million or $0.09 loss per share and $12.7 million or $0.22 loss per share, respectively. On a GAAP basis, net loss for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2008 totaled $17.5 million, or $0.27 loss per share and $31.9 million, or $0.55 loss per share, respectively.
As of March 31, 2008, the Company had an order backlog of approximately $158 million as compared to a backlog of approximately $156 million as of December 31, 2007. The March 31, 2008 order backlog is comprised of $133 million for our Photovoltaics segment and $25 million for our Fiber Optics segment.
At March 31, 2008, total cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and long-term cash investments at March 31, 2008 was approximately $30.5 million, a decrease of $0.6 million from the prior quarter. The Company generated positive cash flows from operations for the six month period ended March 31, 2008. During fiscal 2008, the Company purchased approximately $9.6 million in equipment to develop and manufacture CPV-related components and systems.

This strengthened EMCORE's position in Fiber Optics component and subsystem arena significantly. With the added and existing product portfolio, EMCORE is poised as a major player in broadband, telecom, enterprise and high-performance computing markets with leading products and technology for sustainable and profitable growth in the future. The business development in the terrestrial solar power area continues to be very successful. We continue to broaden our customer base and book new orders. This quarter represents the first significant revenue from this new line of business which we have invested in over the last couple of years. Our debt conversion and equity financing activities strengthened our balance sheet and provided enough capital to execute our current business plan," stated Dr. Hong Q. Hou, Chief Executive Officer. "We are happy to achieve the aggressive top-line growth and meet our revenue guidance, and we are increasing our revenue guidance going forward for this quarter and the rest of the year. The business fundamentals remain strong for the continued growth. We remain optimistic that we will achieve operational profitability in the second half of 2008. The management team is intensely focusing on delivering that profitability," added Dr. Hou.
"The Board of Directors has authorized the management of the Company to prepare a comprehensive operational and strategic plan for the separation of the Company's Fiber Optics and Photovoltaic businesses into separate corporations." Reuben F. Richards, Jr., Executive Chairman stated, "We are excited to be taking the first steps in this process, which we believe allows us to maximize the potential of both our business segments. We will be working closely with investment, accounting and legal advisors over the coming months to develop a structure for this separation that will maximize operating efficiencies as well as maximizing shareholder value."

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
EMCORE provides non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating loss, and non-GAAP net loss as supplemental measures to GAAP regarding our operational performance. These financial measures exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. A detailed explanation of each of the adjustments to such financial measures is described below. This press release also contains a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure.
EMCORE believes that the additional non-GAAP measures are useful to investors for financial analysis. In particular, management believes it is appropriate in evaluating EMCORE's operations to exclude gains or losses from one-time items such as patent litigation-related charges, charges associated with our review of historical stock option grants and severance and restructuring-related expenses because these items would make results less comparable between periods. Management believes adjusting for stock-based compensation expense is appropriate, as it is a non-cash expense, and adjusting is consistent with the practice of most of our competitors. Management also uses these measures internally to evaluate the company's operating performance, and the measures are used for planning and forecasting of future periods. In addition, many financial analysts that follow our Company focus on and publish both historical results and future projections based on non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that it is in the best interest of our investors to provide this information to analysts so that they accurately report the non-GAAP financial information. However, non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures.
While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may not be reported by all of the Company's competitors and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of the Company's competitors due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation. The Company compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to GAAP financial measures and by reviewing the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as indicated in the tables listed below:
