SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 02, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Dolby Laboratories, Inc. (NYSE:DLB) today announced the Company's financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2006.
For the third quarter, Dolby reported total revenue of $93.7 million, compared to $79.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2005, an increase of 18 percent. Third quarter net income was $19.1 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to $14.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2005.
Net income for the third quarter included stock-based compensation charges of $4.7 million compared to $3.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2005.
"We continued to make progress extending our technology and brand globally," said Bill Jasper, President and Chief Executive Officer of Dolby. "In the third quarter, broadcasters in China, Europe, Japan, Korea and the US chose Dolby(R) technologies to broadcast the highly anticipated FIFA World Cup games and Dolby Digital was selected by the first HD channel in China to offer 100 percent of its programming in surround sound."
Guidance
For fiscal 2006, the Company now expects revenue to be in the range of $370 million to $375 million. Net income is expected to be in the range of $74 million to $77 million. Earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $0.66 to $0.69. While under FAS 123R stock-based compensation expense may vary based on factors such as stock price or volatility, Dolby continues to expect stock-based compensation expense for the full year to be between $19 million and $21 million.
Pro Forma Information
Prior to the Company's IPO in February 2005, Ray Dolby retained ownership of the intellectual property he created related to the Company's business and licensed those rights to the Company in exchange for royalty payments. In connection with the Company's IPO, Ray Dolby contributed to the Company all of these intellectual property rights. The pro forma financial information included in this release gives effect to the asset contribution as though such contribution had been completed prior to the second quarter of fiscal 2005. Specifically, the Company provides net income and earnings per diluted share excluding royalties paid to Ray Dolby. The Company believes that net income and earnings per diluted share excluding royalties paid to Ray Dolby are important metrics as they represent profitability exclusive of the charges that have now been eliminated. The Company uses these metrics internally to measure its performance and believes these metrics may be meaningful for investors in analyzing the Company's results of operations. A reconciliation of the Company's actual results to these additional metrics is included in this release.
