Summary
Entegris, Inc. (ENTG) reported net sales of $391.0 million for the first quarter of 2019, a 6% increase year-over-year, primarily driven by contributions from recent acquisitions. However, excluding acquisition impacts and unfavorable foreign currency translation, organic sales decreased by 2% due to softening demand in the semiconductor market. Gross profit saw a slight increase to $177.4 million, but the gross margin declined to 45.4% from 47.9% in the prior year, impacted by higher cost of sales from acquired inventories and less favorable sales mix. Net income significantly decreased to $32.7 million ($0.24 per diluted share) compared to $57.6 million ($0.40 per diluted share) in the first quarter of 2018. This decline is largely attributable to a substantial increase in selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses, which rose 41% to $82.3 million, driven by deal costs related to the terminated Versum merger and integration expenses from acquisitions. The company also incurred higher amortization expenses due to recent acquisitions. Despite the lower profitability, Entegris has a solid liquidity position with $342.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and access to a $300 million revolving credit facility.
