ALi Corporation (3041 TT) today announced the total consolidated revenue for July 2012 reached NT$315.4 million, representing a decrease of 22.5% MoM and an increase of 22.1% YoY. Aggregate revenue from January to July of 2012 was NT$3.03 billion, up 60.9% from the same period last year.
The company explained that product sales of retail STB in July decreased compared to last month, resulting from the summer vacation effect in Western Europe and some emerging markets in addition to high inventory level retained by distributors and end clients. However, the consolidated monthly sales increased by 22.1% YoY and aggregate revenue from January to July of 2012 still represented an increase by 60% compared to the same period of previous year as the company has been developing various types of products targeting high-definition and IP STB (OTT) in retail market, as well as cultivating relationship with Pay-TV operators for a couple of years, all three of which are key growth drivers to boost sales scale.
The company also declared to pay a cash dividend of NT$1.78 per share on August 17th, 2012 by either wire remittances or checks.

ALi Corporation (3041 TT) today held its second quarter online earnings conference and announced consolidated revenue of NT$1,291 million, consolidated gross profit of NT$627 million with consolidated gross profit margin of 49%, consolidated operating income of NT$251 million with consolidated operating profit margin of 19%, net income of NT$213 million, and basic earnings per share of NT$0.73 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.
ALi Corporation stated that second quarter consolidated revenue, as expected, representing a decrease of 9% on a quarter-over-quarter basis, was basically affected by declining demand due to the expiring deadline of ASO (Analog Switch-off) in Western European countries. However, second quarter consolidated revenue still represented an increase of 47% compared to the same period of previous year as the company has been developing various types of products targeting high-definition and IP STB (OTT) in retail market, as well as cultivating relationship with Pay-TV operators for a couple of years, all three of which are key growth drivers to boost sales scale. The gross profit margin of 49%, similar to the previous quarter but representing an increase by 6% year-over-year, was driven by the high contribution from high-definition chipsets with better margin. Moreover, well-controlled OPEX during this quarter led to the higher-than-expected operating profit margin. Though the profit level dropped quarterly due to declining top line, the consolidated operating profit and net income grew by more than 100% on the year-over-year basis.
For the product line contribution of the second quarter, STB accounted for 92% of the revenue, a slight decline compared to the ratio of 96% in the first quarter. ALi’s STB end markets can be categorized into Retail HD, Retail SD Satellite, Retail SD Terrestrial, and retail IP STB (also known as OTT) and Pay-TV operators, which accounted for 61%, 24%, 8%, 1% and 6% of STB revenue contribution respectively. As for geographical revenue breakdown, China accounted for 8% of total STB revenue, while Emerging Market for 58 %, Europe & US for 34 %.
Looking forward, the chairman and CEO, Dr. Ben Lin, stated that the company is conservative about third quarter’s STB market in view of skepticism toward the economic conditions in Western Europe, US, emerging markets, and China, in addition to high inventory level retained by distributors and end clients. Guidance for the third quarter’s consolidated revenue is expected to be between NT$1,029M and NT$1,107M, a decline by 14%~20% on a quarter-over-quarter basis and an increase by 10%~18% on a year-over-year basis, while consolidated gross profit margin between 46.2% and 48.0%, and consolidated operating income rate between 13.6% and 14.0%.
ALi Corporation. (3041 TT) today announced to webcast its second quarter 2012 earnings conference call on Friday, August 3rd at 3 p.m. Taipei Time in Mandarin. Dr. Ben Lin, Chairman & CEO, will host the conference call to discuss the company’s financial results and answer questions from investors.

ALi Corporation (3041 TT) today held its first quarter online earnings conference and reported audited consolidated financial results for the first quarter ending March 31, 2012 with a revenue of NT$1.43 billion, a gross profit of NT$692.1 million, an operating income of NT$300.4 million, a net income of NT$266.6 million, and an EPS of NT$0.91.
On a year over year basis, first quarter revenue increased by 91%, while gross profit increased by 88%, operating income increased by 172%, net income increased by 100%, and EPS increased by 107%. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2011, first quarter results represented a 27% increase in revenue, a 35% increase in gross profit, a 55% increase in operating income, a 79% increase in net income, and a 78% increase in EPS. All figures were prepared in accordance with R.O.C. GAAP.
The company stated that the better than expected first quarter results were driven by long-term growth drivers and short-term catalysts. In a longer-term perspective, the company has been cultivating relationship with Pay-TV operators for a couple of years, as well as developing various types of high-definition Set-top boxes and IP based connected media players, all three of which are generating more revenue than ever before. Besides, the fact that more high-definition programs are being launched ahead of schedule in the emerging markets also led to the increase of the revenue contribution from the company’s high-definition product line. On the short-term side, most of Western European countries are scheduled to switch off analogue signals by the first half of 2012, which was the reason behind the strong growth momentum in the standard-definition terrestrial and high-definition satellite segments over the past few months.
As to the product line contribution to the first quarter revenue, STB and Digital Audio accounted for 96% and 4% respectively. On a quarter over quarter basis, STB increased by 32% while Digital Audio decreased by 29% due to a slow season effect.
Based on different market segments, ALi’s STB market can be categorized into Retail HD, Retail SD Satellite, Retail SD Terrestrial, and Pay-TV Operator, accounting for 63%, 22%, 9%, and 6% of ALi’s STB revenue contribution respectively.
In terms of geographical revenue breakdown, China accounted for 8% of ALi’s total STB revenue, while Emerging Countries for 57% and Europe/US for 35%.
Looking forward, the President, Dr. Ben Lin, stated that due to the switch-off of analogue signals in Western European countries, the first quarter numbers would pose as a high revenue base for future quarters. As the deadline for the switch-off will soon come up, the effects of the company’s short-term catalysts are likely to wear off. As such, guidance for the second quarter revenue is expected to be between flat to down 10% quarter on quarter, which is still up 46%~62% year on year, while gross margin between 48%~50% and operating margin between 16%~19%.
ALi Corporation. (3041 TT) announced it will webcast its first quarter 2011 earnings conference call on Monday, April. 23 at 3:00 p.m. Taipei Time in Mandarin. President, Dr. Ben Lin, will host the conference call to discuss the company’s financial results and answer questions from the investors.
