Summary

Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) reported strong revenue growth in the third quarter of fiscal year 2017, primarily driven by the acquisition of Linear Technology Corporation, which closed on March 10, 2017. Total revenue increased by 47% year-over-year to $1.15 billion. While gross margin saw a slight decrease due to acquisition-related accounting adjustments, the company's operational performance remained robust. Net income and diluted EPS decreased significantly compared to the prior year, largely impacted by higher operating expenses including R&D, SMG&A, and amortization of intangibles stemming from the acquisition, as well as increased non-operating expenses related to debt financing for the acquisition. Despite these impacts, the company's cash position remains strong, bolstered by the acquisition and robust operating cash flow, enabling continued investment in future growth and shareholder returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

The primary driver of the significant revenue increase was the acquisition of Linear Technology Corporation, which closed on March 10, 2017. The financial results of Linear are included in ADI's consolidated statements from the acquisition date forward.

The decrease in net income and EPS was primarily due to a substantial increase in operating expenses, including R&D, Selling, Marketing, General, and Administrative (SMG&A), and amortization of intangible assets, all largely attributable to the Linear Technology acquisition. Additionally, non-operating expenses increased significantly due to interest expense on the debt raised to finance the acquisition.

The acquisition resulted in a significant increase in assets, notably goodwill of $10.6 billion and intangible assets of $5.1 billion. It also led to a substantial increase in liabilities, particularly debt, with total debt rising to $12.95 billion from $1.75 billion in the prior fiscal year-end. This reflects the financing used for the acquisition.

Analog Devices maintains a strong liquidity position with $6.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments as of April 29, 2017. The company believes its existing liquidity and expected future cash flows are sufficient to fund operations and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.
