BEIJING, May 9, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- Hollysys Automation Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ: HOLI) ("Hollysys" or the "Company"), a leading provider of automation and control technologies and applications in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for its fiscal 2011 third quarter ended March 31, 2011 (see attached tables).

Financial Highlights

  • Quarterly revenues of $55.8 million, representing an increase of 67.2% compared to $33.4 million year-over-year
  • Gross margin at 40.3%, as compared to 37.2% year-over-year, and 36.0% quarter-over-quarter
  • Non-GAAP net income attributable to Hollysys of $9.6 million, as compared to $5.2 million and a 83.6% increase year-over-year
  • Diluted EPS at $0.17 reported for the quarter, as compared to $0.10 year-over-year
  • Backlog of $280.9 million as of March 31, 2011, a 15.9% increase compared to $242.3 million year-over-year
  • Quarterly DSO of 156 days, as compared to 192 days year-over-year
 

Dr. Changli Wang, Chairman and CEO of Hollysys, stated: "We are pleased to report another stellar quarter with solid financial and operational performance. I would like to take this opportunity to discuss some of the key events that took place during this quarter."

"In our industrial automation business, we achieved a significant breakthrough in successful commissioning of our proprietary DCS at Guohua Taishan Thermal Power Plant. This is the first-ever successful application of China-made large-scale DCS for 1 GW ultra-supercritical thermal power station in China. The mile-stone success reference will further widen our opportunities in high-end thermal power market segment. We will continue to leverage on our proprietary technology to provide better value to our customers in high-end markets, while increasing our foot-prints and coverage in low-end to mid-end markets to strive to be the market leader in China's burgeoning industrial automation market.

Our high-speed rail business also showed strong momentum in signing a US$ 24.3 million 200-250km/h ATP contract in April. Excluding this newly awarded contract of US$24.3 million, our high-speed rail backlog was reported at a high level of US$ 103 million as of March 31, 2011, which we believe would be mostly realized during the next twelve to fifteen months. To put this backlog balance in perspective, our reported high-speed rail backlog was fluctuating in the range of US$42 million and US$68 million between June 30, 2008 and September 30, 2010. With approximately 17,000 km of high-speed rail tracks under construction and the newly announced budget of RMB 2.8 trillion for the next five years, China is still investing heavily in building its high-speed rail network for the next five years as the next five year plan budget represents a significant increase compared to the actual spending of approximately RMB 1.9 trillion for the past five year. Ministry of Rail of China is planning to invest RMB 0.745 trillion in building rail network for 2011 and will have 45,000 km of high-speed rail network in operation by the end of 2015. We believe there is still a huge potential in high-speed rail signaling market for leading players like Hollysys to capture going forward. Driven by low carbon emission initiative internationally, we are also eyeing international opportunities to further increase our rail technology and product footprints. Hollysys will continuously execute on its well-set strategy in rail automation market, both national and metro, to strive to be a leading player in this field."

Dr. Wang continued: "In our nuclear business, we were encouraged to see the continuous flow of new orders from China Guangdong Nuclear Power Holding Co to our 50% nuclear JV for automation and control related services of #3 and #4 reactors of Yangjiang nuclear power station, of which the conventional island automation and control system is designed to be based on Hollysys proprietary HOLLiAS-N platform. This new order brought our nuclear JV's backlog to aggregated 14 reactors, which we believe will continuously flow to Hollysys within the next 24 months. Given the recent incident in Japan, the Management believes that China will have to rely on nuclear as a clean, economical power source compared to traditional coal-fired energy, and the heightened safety consciousness would benefit China's nuclear industry in a long run. With a 50% holding JV in place with the most leading nuclear station builder and operator in China, Hollysys will continuously enjoy its privileged position in China's nuclear automation and control market. "

Cash Flow Highlights

The net cash used in operating activities was $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, mainly due to increased inventories, which was built up for one material high-speed rail project to enable the Company to meet the required delivery deadline. This project is expected to be completed delivery in June quarter. Including investing and financing activities, the total net cash inflow for this quarter was $0.9 million.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Days Sales Outstanding ("DSO") for this quarter is 156 days, as compared to 192 days year-over-year and 104 days quarter-over-quarter. Inventory turnover is 101 days for the three months ended March 31 2011, as compared to 94 days for the prior year period.

Outlook for FY 2011

Dr. Wang concluded, "Given our strong financial performance to date and backlog currently on-hand, we are again revising up our fiscal 2011 revenues and net income guidance from $243M to $247M and $39 million to $41 million to $255 million to $259 million and $41 million to 42 million respectively. It is worth noting that this is the second time in a row that management has to revise up the previously provided fiscal year guidance. The management has taken note of recent pressure on Company's stock price due to market conditions caused by misperception and firmly believes that our stock price will eventually reflect our intrinsic value over the longer term. Hollysys will continue to leverage on its core growth pillar foundations of its proprietary technology and strategic alliance with leading organization to penetrate and increase its market share in respective high-growth end markets. At the right conditions, Hollysys will also rely on M&A to accelerate its growth pace and penetrate into the new market, to create long-term value for our shareholders."
