Strong Growth from Broadcast and Broad-based Products
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Silicon Laboratories Inc. (Nasdaq: SLAB), a leader in high-performance,
analog-intensive, mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs), today reported
a seven percent sequential increase in first quarter revenue to $119.6
million due to strength in its broadcast and broad-based product lines.
Financial Highlights
Revenue returned to growth in the first quarter, countering typical
seasonal weakness in consumer markets with strong new product cycles.
During the quarter, the company completed the acquisition of
SpectraLinear, a timing IC provider, and GAAP results include
approximately $11.7 million in charges related to the acquisition, as
well as typical non-cash stock compensation charges. GAAP gross margin
was impacted by product mix as well as $1.1 million in acquisition
charges, resulting in 60.3 percent gross margin for the first quarter.
Operating expenses included $5.1 million in acquisition-related charges
and ended the quarter at $35.4 million in R&D investment and $31.9
million in SG&A expense. This resulted in a fully diluted GAAP loss of
four cents per share.
The following non-GAAP results exclude the impact of acquisition-related
charges and stock compensation expense. Non-GAAP gross margin was 61.6
percent for the quarter, down sequentially as anticipated due to product
mix. Operating expenses increased only modestly, with R&D at $29.7
million and SG&A about flat at $23.2 million. Fully diluted non-GAAP
earnings per share were better than expected at $0.40. The reconciling
charges are set forth in the financial measures table included below.
Business Highlights
The company's better than seasonal performance was driven by an
aggressive ramp of its innovative silicon TV tuner into iDTVs by five
top TV makers during the quarter. The company's timing products also
achieved record revenue again which, when combined with strong growth in
MCU products, enabled high single-digit sequential growth in the
broad-based product category. Record design wins and expanding
portfolios in both timing and MCUs created market share momentum at both
existing and new customers.
"The improving complexion of our revenue base, and the momentum we
currently have with our bookings and design wins have so far outweighed
the industry-wide concerns that have developed following the tragedy in
Japan," said Necip Sayiner, president and CEO of Silicon Laboratories.
"We continue to have confidence in the annual growth targets we set in
January and view the Q1 results as strong progress towards those goals."
The company guided revenue for the second quarter in the range of $124
to $130 million.

reflect the current views and assumptions of Silicon Laboratories and
are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual

could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the

rapidly; difficulties developing new products that achieve market
acceptance; dependence on a limited number of products and customers;

associated with acquisitions; difficulties managing international
activities; difficulties managing our manufacturers and subcontractors;
risks that Silicon Laboratories may not be able to manage strains
associated with its growth; credit risks associated with our accounts
receivable; dependence on key personnel; risks associated with
divestitures; geographic concentration of manufacturers, assemblers,
test service providers and customers in Asia that subjects Silicon
Laboratories' business and results of operations to risks of natural
disasters, epidemics, war and political unrest; the competitive and
cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and other factors that are
detailed in Silicon Laboratories' filings with the SEC. Silicon
