MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CyberOptics Corporation (Nasdaq: CYBE) today reported sales of $15.0 million for the first quarter of 2019 ended March 31, an increase of 6% from $14.1 million in the first quarter of 2018. First quarter earnings totaled $495,000 or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to the net loss of $173,000 or $0.02 per share in last year’s first quarter.
Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, president and chief executive officer, commented: “CyberOptics’ improved first quarter operating results were generated by higher sales of 3D MRS-enabled SQ3000 automated optical inspection (AOI) systems, MX600 sales and record quarterly sales of semiconductor sensors, primarily consisting of our WaferSense family of products.”
He added: “We are confident that our family of 3D MRS-enabled sensors, inspection and metrology systems are providing CyberOptics with a significant competitive advantage and strong growth opportunities in our targeted markets. This suite of technologically advanced products, coupled with the steadily growing acceptance of our WaferSense family, is forecasted to drive our sales growth and profitability in 2019 and beyond.”
Sales of sensors, inspection and metrology systems based on 3D MRS technology totaled $4.3 million in this year’s first quarter, virtually unchanged from the year-earlier period due to the previously forecasted softness in OEM sensor sales. These products plus our semiconductor sensors accounted for 57% of total first quarter revenue, up from 53% in last year’s first quarter.
Bucking the trend of weak SMT and semiconductor market conditions, sales of inspection and metrology systems increased 20% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2019 to $7.1 million. Within this category, first quarter 2019 sales of 3D MRS-enabled SQ3000 AOI systems, including the SQ3000 CMM that incorporates AOI with metrology functionality, grew 12% year-over-year to $2.5 million. These advanced systems are now in use by approximately 100 customers worldwide. CyberOptics had previously forecasted $2.7 million of revenue from MX600 systems in the first quarter of 2019, but ultimately only recognized $1.6 million of revenue due to changes in the customer’s installation schedule for the systems. Consistent with the customer’s current schedule, another $1.1 million of MX600 sales are expected to be recognized in the second quarter of 2019, with the remaining MX600 backlog of $550,000 slated for recognition in the third quarter. Sales of inspection and metrology systems are forecasted to grow strongly in the second quarter, paced by robust demand for 3D SQ3000 products and the aforementioned MX600 sales.
As previously forecast, sales of 3D and 2D sensors declined 26% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2019 to $3.7 million, with sales of 3D MRS-enabled sensors down 18% year-over-year in the first quarter to $1.7 million. Consistent with our prior statements, OEM customers for 3D and 2D sensors have continued to reduce orders due to sluggish conditions in the global SMT and semiconductor markets. Weakness in 3D and 2D sensor sales is expected to persist, resulting in a significant year-over-year decline in sensor sales in the second quarter of 2019. Sales of 3D and 2D sensors are expected to rebound during the second half of 2019 as SMT and semiconductor markets begin to improve.
Sales of semiconductor sensors increased 31% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2019 to a new quarterly record of $4.1 million, driven by advanced Asian fabs commissioned in 2018 that have deployed WaferSense sensors to improve yields. Sales of semiconductor sensors are forecasted to be essentially flat on a year-over-year basis in the second quarter of 2019 due to near-term softness in the semiconductor market. CyberOptics believes its family of high-margin WaferSense products will be one of CyberOptics’ growth and profitability drivers going forward.
Many potential customers, including OEMs and system integrators, are evaluating CyberOptics’ MRS-enabled 3D sensors for semiconductor back-end, mid-end and advanced packaging inspection and metrology applications, given their high-resolution and inspection speeds two to three times faster than competing sensors currently available in the marketplace. Nominal sales are anticipated during the second half of 2019 due to the lengthy sales cycle for these sensors. However, sales are expected to grow steadily in 2020 and beyond. CyberOptics believes semiconductor back-end, mid-end and advanced packaging 3D inspection and metrology represent important long-term growth opportunities.
CyberOptics ended the first quarter of 2019 with an order backlog of $11.6 million, down from $13.6 million at the end of last year’s fourth quarter. The company is forecasting sales of $15.0 to $16.5 million for the second quarter of 2019 ending June 30. CyberOptics believes that 2019 will be another year of sales and earnings growth.
