Wolfspeed, Inc. (NYSE: WOLF), formerly known as Cree, Inc.,
today announced revenue of $173.1 million for its second quarter of
fiscal 2022, ended December 26, 2021. This represents a 36%
increase compared to revenue from continuing operations of $127.0
million reported for the second quarter of fiscal 2021, and a 11%
increase compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022. GAAP net
loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal
2022 was $96.7 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, compared to
GAAP net loss from continuing operations of $54.3 million, or $0.49
per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2021. On a
non-GAAP basis, net loss from continuing operations for the second
quarter of fiscal 2022 was $18.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted
share, compared to non-GAAP net loss from continuing operations for
the second quarter of fiscal 2021 of $26.6 million, or $0.24 per
diluted share.
"We delivered strong revenue at the high end of our guidance
during the quarter, our sixth straight quarter of revenue growth,
further validating our positioning to capture accelerating demand.
The team is successfully growing and converting opportunities in
our device pipeline," said Wolfspeed Chief Executive Officer, Gregg
Lowe. "We are excited about our long-term outlook and we are
confident in our strategy and path forward."
Business Outlook:
For its third quarter of fiscal 2022, Wolfspeed targets revenue
in a range of $185 million to $195 million. GAAP net loss is
targeted at $66 million to $71 million, or $0.53 to $0.57 per
diluted share. Non-GAAP net loss is targeted to be in a range of
$15 million to $20 million, or $0.12 to $0.16 per diluted share.
Targeted non-GAAP net loss excludes $51 million of estimated
expenses, net of tax, related to stock-based compensation expense,
amortization or impairment of acquisition-related intangibles,
factory optimization restructuring and start-up costs, interest
income from transaction-related note receivable and project,
transformation, transaction and transition costs.

today to review the highlights of its second quarter results and
the fiscal third quarter 2022 business outlook, including

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
This press release highlights the Company's financial results on
both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. The GAAP results include certain
costs, charges and expenses that are excluded from non-GAAP
results. By publishing the non-GAAP measures, management intends to
provide investors with additional information to further analyze
the Company's performance, core results and underlying trends.
Wolfspeed's management evaluates results and makes operating
decisions using both GAAP and non-GAAP measures included in this
press release. Non-GAAP results are not prepared in accordance with
GAAP and non-GAAP information should be considered a supplement to,
and not a substitute for, financial statements prepared in
accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors are
encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial
measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures attached
to this press release.
Change in Estimate:
As a result of the divestiture of the LED Products business and
the Company's continued investment in 200mm technology, the Company
evaluated the useful lives applied to certain machinery and
equipment assets by considering industry standards and reviewing
the assets' historical and estimated future use. In the first
quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company increased the expected useful
lives of these assets by two to five years to more closely reflect
the estimated economic lives of those assets. This change in
estimate was applied prospectively effective for the first quarter
of fiscal 2022 and resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense
of $8.5 million and $16.9 million for the three and six months
ended December 26, 2021, respectively. Approximately $10.3 million
of the decrease in depreciation expense for the six months ended
December 26, 2021 resulted in a net reduction of inventory as of
December 26, 2021 and will impact cost of revenue, net in future
periods as the inventory is relieved. The remaining $6.6 million of
the decrease in depreciation expense resulted in the following for
the three and six months ended December 26, 2021: (1) an
improvement in gross profit of $4.4 million and $4.9 million,
respectively; (2) an improvement in both loss before income taxes
and net loss of $5.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively; and
(3) an improvement in basic and diluted loss per share of $0.05 and
$0.06 per share, respectively.
Forward Looking Statements:
The schedules attached to this release are an integral part of
the release. This press release contains forward-looking statements
involving risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that may
cause Wolfspeed’s actual results to differ materially from those
indicated in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements by their nature address matters that are, to different
degrees, uncertain, such as statements about our plans to grow the
business and our ability to achieve our targets for the third
quarter of fiscal 2022 and beyond. Actual results could differ
materially due to a number of factors, including but not limited
to, risks relating to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including the
risk of new and different government restrictions and regulations
that limit our ability to do business, the risk of infection in our
workforce and subsequent impact on our ability to conduct business,
the risk that our supply chain, including our contract
manufacturers, or customer demand may be negatively impacted, the
risk posed by vaccine resistance and the emergence of
fast-spreading variants, the risk that the COVID-19 pandemic will
lead to a global recession and the potential for costs associated
with our operations during the fiscal 2022 third quarter and future
quarters to be greater than we anticipate as a result of all of
these factors; the risk that we may not obtain sufficient orders to
achieve our targeted revenues; price competition in key markets;
the risk that we may experience production difficulties that
preclude us from shipping sufficient quantities to meet customer
orders or that result in higher production costs, lower yields and
lower margins; our ability to lower costs; the risk that our
results will suffer if we are unable to balance fluctuations in
customer demand and capacity, including bringing on additional
capacity on a timely basis to meet customer demand; the risk that
longer manufacturing lead times may cause customers to fulfill
their orders with a competitor's products instead; product mix;
risks associated with the ramp-up of production of our new
products, and our entry into new business channels different from
those in which we have historically operated; risks associated with
our factory optimization plan and construction of a new device
fabrication facility, including design and construction delays and
cost overruns, issues in installing and qualifying new equipment
and ramping production, poor production process yields and quality
control, and potential increases to our restructuring costs; the
risk that we or our channel partners are not able to develop and
expand customer bases and accurately anticipate demand from end
customers, which can result in increased inventory and reduced
orders as we experience wide fluctuations in supply and demand; the
risk that the economic and political uncertainty caused by the
tariffs imposed by the United States on Chinese goods, and
corresponding Chinese tariffs and currency devaluation in response,
may negatively impact demand for our products; risks related to
international sales and purchases; ongoing uncertainty in global
economic conditions, infrastructure development or customer demand
that could negatively affect product demand, collectability of
receivables and other related matters as consumers and businesses
may defer purchases or payments, or default on payments; risks
resulting from the concentration of our business among few
customers, including the risk that customers may reduce or cancel
orders or fail to honor purchase commitments; the risk that our
investments may experience periods of significant market value and
interest rate volatility causing us to recognize fair value losses
on our investment; the risk posed by managing an increasingly
complex supply chain that has the ability to supply a sufficient
quantity of raw materials, subsystems and finished products with
the required specifications and quality; the risk we may be
required to record a significant charge to earnings if our
remaining goodwill or amortizable assets become impaired; risks
relating to confidential information theft or misuse, including
through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusion; our ability to complete
development and commercialization of products under development;
the rapid development of new technology and competing products that
may impair demand or render our products obsolete; the potential
lack of customer acceptance for our products; risks associated with
ongoing litigation; the risk that customers do not maintain their
favorable perception of our brand and products, resulting in lower
demand for our products; the risk that our products fail to perform
or fail to meet customer requirements or expectations, resulting in
significant additional costs; issues, delays or complications in
completing required transition activities to allow the Company's
now divested LED Products business to operate under the SMART
Global Holdings, Inc. (SGH) portfolio of businesses after the
closing, including incurring unanticipated costs to complete such
activities; risks associated with strategic transactions, including
the possibility that we may not realize the full purchase price
contemplated in connection with the sale of our former LED Products
or Lighting Products business units; and other factors discussed in
our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC),
including our report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June
27, 2021, and subsequent reports filed with the SEC. These
forward-looking statements represent Wolfspeed's judgment as of the
date of this release. Except as required under the U.S. federal
securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, Wolfspeed
disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking
statements after the date of this release, whether as a result of
new information, future events, developments, changes in
assumptions or otherwise.

Wolfspeed, Inc.
Non-GAAP Measures of Financial
Performance
To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, or GAAP, Wolfspeed uses non-GAAP measures of certain
components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures
include non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating (loss) income,
non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net, non-GAAP net (loss)
income from continuing operations, non-GAAP diluted (loss) earnings
per share from continuing operations and free cash flow.
Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure of all historical
non-GAAP measures included in this press release can be found in
the tables included with this press release.
Non-GAAP measures presented in this press release are not in
accordance with or an alternative to measures prepared in
accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures
used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are
not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or
principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not
reflect all of the amounts associated with Wolfspeed's results of
operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP
measures should only be used to evaluate Wolfspeed's results of
operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.
Wolfspeed believes that these non-GAAP measures, when shown in
conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, enhance
investors' and management's overall understanding of the Company's
current financial performance and the Company's prospects for the
future, including cash flows available to pursue opportunities to
enhance shareholder value. In addition, because Wolfspeed has
historically reported certain non-GAAP results to investors, the
Company believes the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides
consistency in the Company's financial reporting.
For its internal budgeting process, and as discussed further
below, Wolfspeed's management uses financial statements that do not
include the items listed below and the income tax effects
associated with the foregoing. Wolfspeed's management also uses
non-GAAP measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures,
in reviewing the Company's financial results.
Wolfspeed excludes the following items from one or more of its
non-GAAP measures when applicable:
Stock-based compensation expense. This expense consists of
expenses for stock options, restricted stock, performance stock
awards and employee stock purchases through its Employee Stock
Purchase Program. Wolfspeed excludes stock-based compensation
expenses from its non-GAAP measures because they are non-cash
expenses that Wolfspeed does not believe are reflective of ongoing
operating results.
Amortization or impairment of acquisition-related intangibles.
Wolfspeed incurs amortization or impairment of acquisition-related
intangibles in connection with acquisitions. Wolfspeed excludes
these items because they arise from Wolfspeed's prior acquisitions
and have no direct correlation to the ongoing operating results of
Wolfspeed's business.
Factory optimization restructuring. In May 2019, the Company
started a significant, multi-year factory optimization plan to be
anchored by a state-of-the-art, automated 200mm Silicon Carbide
device fabrication facility. In September 2019, the Company
announced the intent to build the new fabrication facility in
Marcy, New York to complement the factory expansion underway at its
U.S. campus headquarters in Durham, North Carolina. As part of the
plan, the Company will incur restructuring costs associated with
the movement of equipment as well as disposals on certain
long-lived assets. Because these charges relate to assets which had
been retired prior to the end of their estimated useful lives,
Wolfspeed does not believe these costs are reflective of ongoing
operating results. Similarly, Wolfspeed does not consider the
realized net losses on sale of assets relating to the restructuring
to be reflective of ongoing operating results.
Severance and other restructuring. These costs relate to the
Company's realignment of certain resources as part of the Company's
transition to a more focused semiconductor company. Wolfspeed does
not believe these costs are reflective of ongoing operating
results.
Project, transformation and transaction costs. The Company has
incurred professional services fees and other costs associated with
completed and potential acquisitions and divestitures, as well as
internal transformation programs focused on optimizing the
Company's administrative processes. Wolfspeed excludes these items
because Wolfspeed believes they are not reflective of the ongoing
operating results of Wolfspeed's business.
Factory optimization start-up costs. As part of the factory
optimization plan, the Company has incurred and will incur start-up
costs. Wolfspeed does not believe these costs are reflective of
ongoing operating results. In fiscal 2022, these costs will include
an estimated $80.0 million of start-up and pre-production related
costs associated with the Company ramping production at its new
device fabrication facility in Marcy, New York.
Transition service agreement costs. As a result of the sale of
the Lighting Products business unit, the Company provided certain
information technology services under a transition services
agreement which will not be reimbursed. Wolfspeed excludes the
costs of these services because Wolfspeed believes they are not
reflective of the ongoing operating results of Wolfspeed's
business.
Net changes in fair value of investment in ENNOSTAR. Prior to
the Company liquidating its interests in ENNOSTAR in fiscal 2021,
the Company's common stock ownership investment in ENNOSTAR, Inc.
was accounted for utilizing the fair value option. As such, changes
in fair value were recognized in income, including fluctuations due
to the exchange rate between the New Taiwan Dollar and the United
States Dollar. Wolfspeed excluded the impact of these gains or
losses from its non-GAAP measures because they were non-cash
impacts. Additionally, Wolfspeed excluded the impact of dividends
received, if any, on its ENNOSTAR investment as Wolfspeed does not
believe it was reflective of its ongoing operating results.
Interest income on transaction-related note receivable. In
connection with the completed sale of the LED Products business
unit to SGH and its wholly owned acquisition subsidiary CreeLED,
Inc. (CreeLED and collectively with SGH, SMART), the Company
received an unsecured promissory note issued to the Company by SGH
in the amount of $125 million (the Purchase Price Note). Interest
income on the Purchase Price Note is excluded because Wolfspeed
believes it is not reflective of the ongoing operating results of
Wolfspeed's business.
Loss on debt extinguishment related to the conversion of 2023
Notes. In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, all outstanding 0.875%
convertible senior notes due 2023 (2023 Notes) and issued in August
2018 were surrendered for conversion, resulting in the settlement
of the 2023 Notes in approximately 7.1 million shares of the
Company's common stock. This conversion resulted in a loss on
extinguishment of convertible notes. Wolfspeed excludes this item
because Wolfspeed believes it is not reflective of the ongoing
operating results of Wolfspeed's business.
Accretion on convertible notes, net of capitalized interest. The
issuance of the Company's convertible senior notes in August 2018
and April 2020 results in interest accretion on the convertible
notes' issue costs and discount. Wolfspeed considers these items as
either limited in term or having no impact on the Company's cash
flows, and therefore has excluded such items to facilitate a review
of current operating performance and comparisons to the Company's
past operating performance.
Loss on Wafer Supply Agreement. In connection with the completed
sale of the LED Products business unit to SMART, the Company
entered into a Wafer Supply and Fabrication Services Agreement (the
Wafer Supply Agreement), pursuant to which the Company supplies
CreeLED with certain Silicon Carbide materials and fabrication
services for up to four years. Wolfspeed excludes the financial
impact of this agreement because Wolfspeed believes it is not
reflective of the ongoing operating results of Wolfspeed's
business.
Income tax adjustment. This amount reconciles GAAP tax (benefit)
expense to a calculated non-GAAP tax (benefit) expense utilizing a
non-GAAP tax rate. The non-GAAP tax rate estimates an appropriate
tax rate if the listed non-GAAP items were excluded. This
reconciling item adjusts non-GAAP net (loss) income from continuing
operations to the amount it would be if the calculated non-GAAP tax
rate was applied to non-GAAP (loss) income before income taxes.
Wolfspeed may incur some of these same expenses, including
income taxes associated with these expenses, in future periods. In
addition to the non-GAAP measures discussed above, Wolfspeed also
uses free cash flow as a measure of operating performance and
liquidity. Free cash flow represents operating cash flows from
continuing operations less net purchases of property and equipment
and patent and licensing rights. Wolfspeed considers free cash flow
to be an operating performance and a liquidity measure that
provides useful information to management and investors about the
amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases of
property and equipment, a portion of which can then be used to,
among other things, invest in Wolfspeed's business, make strategic
acquisitions and strengthen the balance sheet. A limitation of the
utility of free cash flow as a measure of operating performance and
liquidity is that it does not represent the residual cash flow
available to the company for discretionary expenditures, as it
excludes certain mandatory expenditures such as debt service.
