CyberOptics Reports Solid First Quarter Operating Results



Minneapolis, MNApril 25, 2007CyberOptics
Corporation (Nasdaq: CYBE) today reported operating results for the first quarter of 2007 ended March 31:




        Consolidated sales totaled $13,741,000 for the first quarter of 2007 ended March 31, down from $14,718,000 in the year-earlier period and virtually unchanged from $13,745,000 in the fourth quarter of 2006. First quarter sales were consistent with the previously issued guidance for this period.





        Operating income came to $1,174,000, down from $1,842,000 in the year-earlier period but up from $1,043,000 in the fourth quarter of 2006.





        Net income came to $1,153,000 or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $1,456,000 or $0.16 in the first quarter of 2006 and $1,282,000 or $0.14 per diluted share in last years fourth quarter when earnings were taxed at an effective rate of 20% due to the impact of federal R&D tax credits that took effect in the fourth quarter. First quarter earnings were at the upper end of the forecasted financial guidance for this period.





        CyberOptics ended the first quarter of 2007 with cash and marketable securities of $49,115,000 up from $49,007,000 at the beginning of the year.




Kathleen P. Iverson, president and chief executive officer, commented: We are encouraged that CyberOptics is continuing to post very solid operating results, even though we faced a difficult comparison with last years first quarter when we shipped one of the largest orders in our history for SE 300 solder paste inspection systems. Although we had no similarly sized shipment in this years first quarter, inspection systems sales continued at robust levels, with sales of our Flex Ultra automated optical inspection (AOI) system being particularly strong. Sales of electronic assembly sensors remained comparable with the prior two quarters after peaking earlier in 2006.



Iverson continued: We ended the first quarter of 2007 with an order backlog of $5,576,000, compared to $6,876,000 at the beginning of the quarter. We believe sales of inspection systems should continue at robust levels in the second quarter. However, consolidated sales for this period will be affected by some softness in orders for electronic assembly sensors. As a result, we are forecasting sales of $12.5 to $13.5 million for the second quarter of 2007 ending June 30 and earnings of $0.08 to $0.11 per diluted share. Our guidance reflects an increase in stock compensation expense, a benefit from a warranty recovery and an effective tax rate of 34%.



Steven K. Case, Ph.D., chairman and founder, added: We continue to believe that electronic assembly inspection solutions will be our primary growth driver going forward, and the strong sales growth of our technologically advanced Flex Ultra AOI systems is validating this conviction. To build upon this momentum, we introduced in the first quarter our next-generation Flex Ultra HR, which can inspect components as small as 01005 English. With 5.0 megapixel camera technology, this new system also offers users a 40 percent improvement in imaging resolution over the Flex Ultra. During the quarter, we also introduced our first SE 300 solder paste inspection system specially modified for the Japanese market. We believe this is a key development, since Japan accounts for approximately 25% of total worldwide production of SMT circuit boards. At the same time, we fully intend to maintain and expand our
industry-leading position in electronic assembly sensors. Toward this end, we are making volume shipments of our fifth-generation LaserAlign® sensor for the new pick-and-place platform of Juki Automation Systems, a long-time OEM partner. We believe that by having this higher speed and resolution sensor incorporated into Jukis next-generation platform, Juki should remain a significant CyberOptics customer.
