Recent Highlights
NETL7™ Knowledge-based Processor Design Win
NetLogic Microsystems announced that it has been awarded its first design win for its NETL7TM family of knowledge-based processors. This design win was awarded to the company by one of the world’s largest providers of enterprise security solutions and services. This development validates both the demand for 10 Gigabits-per-second (Gbps) content processing technology by Tier 1 system vendors in the market and the superiority of NetLogic Microsystems’ content processing solution. The design win further broadens and diversifies the company’s customer base beyond its traditional networking market.
Introduction of NL71024 Knowledge-based Processor and First Design Wins
The company announced the launch of its NL71024 knowledge-based processor for Layers 3-4 communications and networking. The NL71024 processor, the first member of the NL7000 family, incorporates the industry’s highest parallel processing capabilities through an advanced superscalar architecture with deep pipelining and advanced power management that allows the processor to handle multiple tasks at 40 Gigabits-per-second (Gbps) line rates while maintaining the lowest system power. This enables multiple processing decisions to be made simultaneously for QoS, ACL security and voice/video packet forwarding, all of which significantly improve the performance of next-generation networks. The NL71024

knowledge-based processor also delivers unprecedented database capacity, and enables systems to provide significant improvements in support of the IPv6 protocol. Each NL71024 knowledge-based processor is capable of simultaneously processing either 256,000 IPv6 database entries or 1 million IPv4 entries, which is at least twice the processing capability of existing solutions in the market. In addition, customers can cluster up to four knowledge-based processors to further expand the processing capacity. The company has already earned multiple design wins for the NL71024.
New Low-Power NETLite™ Processor and First Design Win
The company has developed a new low-power version of its NETLiteTM NL3100 processor family specifically designed for cost-sensitive, high-volume applications. Power is rapidly becoming as significant a requirement as features and performance. By adding a low-power version to the NETLite family, the company is now in a strong position to capture low-cost power-sensitive designs, and has successfully penetrated its largest customer with this new product family.
Collaboration With Cavium Networks
NetLogic Microsystems announced a collaboration with Cavium Networks to offer a 20 Gigabits-per-second (Gbps) reference development kit that incorporates NetLogic Microsystems’ GLQ family of knowledge-based processor and Cavium Networks’ OCTEON™ Multi-core MIPS64® processor. The collaborative solution is targeted at the high-growth networking, communications and wireless markets.
2006 Deloitte Technology Fast 500
The company announced that it ranked Number 59 on Deloitte’s 2006 Technology Fast 500, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies in North America. Rankings are based on percentage revenue growth over five years, from 2001-2005. The company’s revenue grew 3,964 percent during this period.
Management Qualitative Comments

demonstrate our commitment to market leadership through investment in products and technologies. This year alone, we brought to market the NL6000XS, developed the NL7000 and secured design wins for both of these new products. We also launched the NETL7 knowledge-based processor product family and announced our first design win for this family. Further, we introduced the low power version of our NETLite product family, which allowed us to expand into a new market at our largest customer. These achievements represent a tremendous engineering effort, as well as strong company-wide execution of our plans, providing exciting growth opportunities for our company in the years to come.”

Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this announcement of operating results contains non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the income statement effects of stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, an in-process research and development charge and a fair value adjustment of the acquired inventory resulting from the acquisition of NSE assets of Cypress Semiconductor Corporation and the effects of our adoption of SFAS 123R upon the number of diluted shares used in calculating non-GAAP earnings per share.
We exclude stock-based compensation to calculate non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 to allow for a better comparison of results in the current period to those in prior periods that did not include FAS 123(R) stock-based compensation.
In addition, we exclude an in-process research and development charge and a fair value adjustment related to acquired inventory, which are considered one-time expenses, as well as amortization of intangibles resulting from our recent acquisition of Cypress’ NSE assets. We use the non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate the Company’s current performance. We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items is useful to investors because we do not consider these charges part of the day-to-day business or reflective of the core operational activities of the Company that are within the control of management or that would be used to evaluate management’s operating performance.
The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. For additional information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures, and management’s explanation of why it considers such measures to be useful, refer to the Form 8-K dated October 25, 2006 that we have submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
