Teradyne, Inc. (NYSE: TER) reported revenue of $431 million for the first quarter of 2016 of which $340 million was in Semiconductor Test, $54 million in System Test, $20 million in Wireless Test and $17 million in Industrial Automation. On a non-GAAP basis, Teradyne’s net income in the first quarter was $64.4 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, which excluded acquired intangible asset amortization, restructuring and other charges, pension actuarial gain and discrete income tax adjustments. GAAP net income for the first quarter was $50.0 million or $0.24 per share.

Orders in the first quarter of 2016 were $389 million of which $306 million were in Semiconductor Test, $46 million in System Test, $20 million in Wireless Test and $18 million in Industrial Automation.

Teradyne’s orders of $912 million over the last two quarters, driven by Q4’15's accelerated ordering of semiconductor testers for mobile products, were 11% above the $822 million in orders over the Q4'14 to Q1’15 period. Revenues were up 13%, $84 million, over the period.

“First quarter semiconductor test revenues are off to their strongest start in over 15 years,” said CEO and President Mark Jagiela. “Our UltraFLEX System-on-a-Chip platform led the revenue performance driven by expanding mobile device demand. At Universal Robots, sales were up 58% from the first quarter of 2015 and we’re tracking to our full year, 50% or greater growth plan as the range of applications and global demand for collaborative robots continue to expand. Looking ahead, at the mid-point of our second quarter guidance, we'll deliver the highest reported first half revenue since 2004 reflecting our strong bookings performance over the last six months.”

Guidance for the second quarter of 2016 is revenue of $510 million to $540 million, with non-GAAP net income of $0.46 to $0.53 per diluted share and GAAP net income of $0.38 to $0.45 per diluted share. Non-GAAP guidance excludes acquired intangible asset amortization.

Non-GAAP Results
In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, Teradyne also discloses non-GAAP results of operations that exclude certain income items and charges. These results are provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income exclude acquired intangible asset amortization, pension actuarial gains and losses, discrete income tax adjustments, restructuring and other, and a gain from the sale of an equity investment. GAAP requires that these items be included in determining income from operations and net income. Non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income as a percentage of revenue, and non-GAAP net income per share are non-GAAP measures presented to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Teradyne's baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that may not be indicative of Teradyne’s current core business or future outlook. These non-GAAP measures are used to make operational decisions, to determine employee compensation, to forecast future operational results, and for comparison with Teradyne’s business plan, historical operating results and the operating results of Teradyne’s competitors. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes pension actuarial gains and losses. GAAP requires that these items be included in determining gross margin. Non-GAAP gross margin dollar amount and percentage are non-GAAP measures that management believes provide useful supplemental information for management and the investor. Management uses non-GAAP gross margin as a performance measure for Teradyne’s current core business and future outlook and for comparison with Teradyne’s business plan, historical gross margin results and the gross margin results of Teradyne’s competitors. Management believes each of these non-GAAP measures provides useful supplemental information for investors, allowing greater transparency to the information used by management in its operational decision making and in the review of Teradyne’s financial and operational performance, as well as facilitating meaningful comparisons of Teradyne’s results in the current period compared with those in prior and future periods.
