OREANDA-NEWS. July 28, 2016. MKS Instruments, Inc. (NASDAQ:MKSI), a global provider of technologies that enable advanced processes and improve productivity, reports today second quarter 2016 financial results.

"We had a very strong second quarter driven by positive business trends in the semiconductor market as well as in other advanced markets we serve,” said Gerald Colella, Chief Executive Officer and President. On a pro-forma basis, sales were \\$359 million, an increase of 9% from \\$330 million in the first quarter of 2016.

Mr. Colella added, "Our second quarter performance demonstrates the accretion potential of our combination with Newport. We are excited about the capabilities of a broader suite of highly precise technology-enabling solutions that address the difficult technological challenges our customers face. Our integration is on track and we are on schedule to realize \\$35 million of annualized cost synergies."

“During the second quarter, we introduced a combined target operating model to reflect the acquisition of Newport, our recent favorable debt repricing and a \\$50 million principal repayment,” said Seth Bagshaw, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.  “At illustrative annual revenue of approximately \\$1.4 billion, and on a fully synergized basis, at this target operating model, the combined company is expected to generate non-GAAP gross margins of 45% to 47%, non-GAAP operating margins of 18% to 20%, and non-GAAP EPS of \\$2.97 to \\$3.35 on 54 million shares outstanding.”

Sales in the second quarter were \\$326 million, which included two months of results from the company’s acquisition of Newport which closed on April 29, 2016. Second quarter Net Income of \\$9.2 million included amortization of intangible assets of \\$8.9 million and aggregate acquisition and integration-related costs of \\$20 million associated with the acquisition.  Non-GAAP Net Earnings were \\$38.7 million, or \\$0.72 per diluted share.

The Company had \\$426 million in cash and short-term investments as of June 30th, \\$730 million outstanding under its term loan, and during the quarter paid a dividend of \\$9.1 million or \\$0.17 per diluted share.
