TechFaith Reports First Half 2017 Financial Results

BEIJING, Aug. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- China TechFaith Wireless Communication Technology Limited (NASDAQ: CNTF) ("TechFaith" or the "Company") today announced its unaudited condensed financial results for the first half period ended June 30, 2017.

For the first half of 2017, TechFaith reported total net revenues of US$24.6 million compared to US$34.5 million in the same period of last year. Gross profit for the first half of 2017 was US$4.5 million compared to US$5.5 million in the same period of last year. Gross margin for the first half of 2017 was 18.1% compared to 15.9% in the same period of last year.

Operating expenses for the first half of 2017 were US$9.4 million compared to US$5.7 million in the same period of last year. The first half of 2017 includes a charge of US$1.8 million for the write-off of impairment of acquired intangible assets. Net loss attributed to TechFaith for the first half of 2017 was US$2.6 million, or US$0.24 per basic and diluted weighted average outstanding ADS, compared to net loss of US$1.2 million, or US$0.11 per basic and diluted weighted average outstanding ADS, in the same period of last year.

Miss Ouyang Yuping, TechFaith's Chief Financial Officer, said, "We were able to maintain revenue in our mobile phone business at a healthy level but our efforts were impacted by softness in the overall China handset market. Separately, we expect to further strengthen our balance sheet over the coming quarters as we execute on our business strategy and deliver a greater return to our shareholders. Earlier this year we announced the share transfer agreement to sell our Beijing real estate portfolio for a total consideration of RMB1 billion (approximately US$144 million). We have already received  approximately RMB 400 million of the proceeds as of Jun 30, 2017 and expect to receive approximately RMB 400 million by the end of the third quarter 2017, with the balance of RMB 200 million to be received upon final construction and transfer of relevant ownership certificates."

Mr. Deyou Dong, Chief Executive Officer of TechFaith, said, "We continue to build upon our positive operating position, with a stabilized gross margin and lower cost structure. We are also pleased with the ongoing successful development of our real estate business, led by the announced agreement to sell our Beijing real estate portfolio. We continue to execute on the buildout of our other real estate assets in Hangzhou and Shenyang, which we expect to serve as additional catalysts for our revenue and profit growth, and our success will allow us to build greater value for our shareholders. We believe our actions will benefit our long term business growth based on China's real estate market, help to further improve our cash flow, and reduce potential operational challenges. Overall, we will continue to focus on delivering an improved return on investment to the company and our shareholders, as we optimize our existing resources and infrastructure, and work to keep operating expenses under tight control to avoid any unnecessary risks and costs."
