Management Qualitative Comments

“We achieved the highest revenue in our company’s history in the third quarter, successfully ramping a number of key design wins for our second and third generation 6-axis devices as well as our optical image stabilization solution,” said Behrooz Abdi, President and CEO. “We continue to hold sizeable market share, including our share at top customers, and are building a design win portfolio that positions us well for continuing market leadership. As we enter the new calendar year, we are excited to bring to market a host of new, highly-differentiated motion and audio products that are expected to more than double our current content opportunity, allowing us to drive deeper customer engagement, as well as market diversification in the coming year and beyond.”

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As discussed above, in addition to the company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which are presented according to GAAP, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information that excludes, stock-based compensation expense, certain litigation expenses, business acquisition costs, amortization of fair value write-up of acquired inventory, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, accreting interest expense on convertible notes and other adjustments. The company uses these non-GAAP measures in its own financial and operational decision-making processes. Further, the company believes that these non-GAAP measures offer an important analytical tool to help investors understand the company’s core operating results and trends and facilitate comparability with the operating results of other companies that provide similar non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures have certain limitations as analytical tools and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial information. For example, stock-based compensation is an important component of the company’s compensation mix and will continue to result in significant expenses in the company’s GAAP results for the foreseeable future, but it is not reflected in our non-GAAP measures. Also, other companies, including companies in the company’s industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
