Cree Announces Second Quarter 2008 Financial Year Results


Cree announced that its second quarter financial results for the fiscal year ending December 30, 2007 were $119 million, an increase of 5% from the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and a 34% increase from a year ago to $88 million. GAAP net income for the second quarter was $6.6 million or diluted earnings per share of $0.08, compared to 13 weeks in the second quarter of fiscal 2007, and the second quarter of fiscal 2008 included 14 weeks.

The second quarter was a strong quarter for CREE. We continued to implement our strategy, and both revenue and profit reached the high standard of the previous announcement. CREE Chairman and CEOHhuck Swoboda said so. "Revenue growth mainly comes from the sales of high-end LEDs. XLamp's orders and shipments both show double-digit growth. At the same time, we also increase Xlamp's production capacity in China. It is expected that in the future, there will be more global lighting products for higher efficiency energy. High demand also requires the use of more efficient lighting technologies, thus accelerating the use of LEDs in lighting applications.

The company expects third-quarter earnings per share of 7 to 9 cents and revenues of $1.20 to $125 million.
