August 25, 2017 | FabrinetEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
EMS firm Fabrinet has announced GAAP revenue of $370.5 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017, up by 34% compared to $276.4 million revenue for the comparable period in fiscal year 2016. GAAP net income for Q4 FY2017 was $27.4 million, up from $19.7 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year.

“Our strong fourth quarter performance, with revenue and net income per diluted share that exceeded our guidance ranges, represented an excellent finish to a record year for Fabrinet. The fourth quarter was our 12th consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth, at 34%. This performance was driven by a combination of growth from both existing customers and new customer programs,” said Tom Mitchell, Chief Executive Officer of Fabrinet. "In addition to delivering a strong financial performance, fiscal year 2017 was also significant from a strategic perspective. We substantially increased our manufacturing capacity and further developed our new product introduction capabilities, especially outside the optical communications market, positioning us to generate strong returns from a diversifying customer base. With our expanded capacity and a robust pipeline of opportunities, we are optimistic that our success in fiscal year 2017 will extend into fiscal year 2018.”
