Today the Company also announced plans to separate into two independent, publicly traded companies by establishing a standalone life sciences company, comprised of the Life Sciences business and a standalone automation company, comprised of the Semiconductor Solutions business. The separation is expected to be completed by end of the calendar year 2021 and does not affect the presentation of the financial statements included within this release. Please see the Company’s separate press release for further information.

Management Comments
“Record level revenue in the second quarter is yet another proof point of the strength and continued momentum of our Life Sciences and Semiconductor Solutions businesses,” commented Steve Schwartz, President and CEO. “While today’s separation announcement reflects years of strategic investment and innovation, we believe that the Life Sciences and Semiconductor Solutions businesses are now of size and scale to operate and benefit from their own standalone structures. Looking ahead, we see strong demand in both businesses supporting continued acceleration as we enter the second half of our fiscal year.”

Summary of GAAP Results
Second Quarter, Fiscal 2021

Revenue for the second quarter was $287 million, up 30% year over year, supported by growth in both Life Sciences and Semiconductor Solutions. Diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.32 per share compared to $0.12 per share in the second quarter of 2020.
Life Sciences revenue of $130 million grew 36% year over year. Year-over-year organic growth was also 36%. Life Sciences Products grew 69% year over year, and Life Sciences Services grew 20%. Excluding the effect of the recent exit of the RUCDR alliance, Life Science Services grew 28%.
Semiconductor Solutions revenue was $157 million, an increase of 26% year over year.
Operating income was $31 million, compared to $15 million in the second quarter of 2020. Operating margin was 10.6%, up 400 basis points year over year and was driven by gross margin of 44.4%, up 340 basis points year over year. The gross profit result in the second quarter of 2021 includes a charge of approximately $5 million related to liabilities for import tariffs. Operating expenses in the quarter include approximately $12 million in unallocated corporate expenses related to strategic M&A initiatives, including the preparation to separate the two businesses.

In the following analysis of the non-GAAP results, Brooks adjusted the GAAP results to provide investors better perspective on the results of operations which the Company believes is more comparable to the similar analysis provided by its peers and/or representative of the normal operations of the business. In this context, the Company has removed the effect of the charge in the second quarter of 2021 related to liabilities for import tariffs related to imports in prior fiscal years. The cost of import tariffs which pertain to the current fiscal year imports remain in the results discussed below. A description of all adjustments and reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most nearly comparable GAAP measures follow the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows included in this release.

Summary of Non-GAAP Results for Continuing Operations
Second Quarter, Fiscal 2021

Diluted EPS for the second quarter was $0.61, up 145% year over year.
Operating income was $58 million, an increase of 124% year over year, and operating margin was 20.2%, up 850 basis points year over year. Gross margin of 47.1% was up 490 basis points year over year. Year-over-year gross margin expansion in both Life Sciences and Semiconductor Solutions drove this improvement.
Life Sciences operating margin was 19.0%, up from 8.5% in the prior year. The year-over-year improvement was driven by gross margin of 50.5%, up 460 basis points year over year. An additional 590 basis points improvement came from operating leverage, as revenue grew 36% year over year while operating expense only grew 15% year over year. The 460 basis point year-over-year improvement in Life Sciences gross margin was driven by performance improvement of 280 basis points and 180 basis points of favorable mix as a result of exiting the RUCDR alliance agreement.
Semiconductor Solutions operating margin was 21.2%, an increase of 780 basis points from the prior year. Gross margin was 44.4%, up 490 basis points year over year, driven by growth and favorable mix in vacuum robots and systems.
Adjusted EBITDA was $71 million, up 105% from the second quarter of 2020 and 23% sequentially.

Cash and Liquidity

Cash flow from operations was $34 million for the quarter, an increase of $9 million year over year, when excluding from the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 period, the $92 million of taxes paid by the Company related to its sale of the semiconductor cryogenics business in fiscal year 2019.
The Company ended the second fiscal quarter of 2021 with a total balance of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities of $334 million. With total debt of $50 million, net cash was $284 million. Subsequent to the quarter end, on April 29, 2021, the Company acquired Precise Automation, Inc. for $70 million in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments.

Quarterly Cash Dividend
The Company additionally announced that the Board of Directors has reiterated a dividend of $0.10 per share payable on June 25, 2021 to stockholders of record on June 4, 2021. Future dividend declarations, as well as the record and payment dates for such dividends, are subject to the final determination of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Revenue is expected to be in the range of $300 million to $320 million and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $0.65 to $0.75.

Notes on Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
These financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Management adjusts the GAAP results for the impact of amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges, purchase price accounting adjustments and charges related to M&A to provide investors better perspective on the results of operations which the Company believes is more comparable to the similar analysis provided by its peers. Management also excludes special charges and gains, such as impairment losses, gains and losses from the sale of assets, as well as other gains and charges that are not representative of the normal operations of the business. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2021, management has excluded a charge related to liabilities for import tariffs related to imports in prior fiscal years. The cost of import tariffs which pertain to the current fiscal year imports were not removed from non-GAAP results. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single measure.
