Management Qualitative Comments
“The first quarter was another strong quarter for us as the industry continues to upgrade legacy networks to better handle more complex traffic with higher bandwidth requirements, which drives demand for our most advanced knowledge-based processors and physical layer products,” said Ron Jankov, president and CEO. “In response to this tremendous opportunity, our product development efforts continue to be strong across our product portfolio, further strengthening our competitive positioning and allowing us to address new applications that have not previously used our solutions. As such, we have achieved solid diversification of our revenues in the past year, both at the customer level and the application level. We are excited by our momentum in design activity and design wins, reflecting our advanced portfolio of solutions and strong execution of our product and technology roadmap.”

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, in-process research and development charges, fair value adjustments of acquired inventory, and the effects of excluding stock-based compensation upon the number of diluted shares used in calculating non-GAAP earnings per share.
We excluded stock-based compensation expense which is non-cash in nature and is difficult to predict as its valuation is affected by market forces that are not within the control of management. We also exclude amortization of intangibles, in-process research and development charge, and fair value adjustments related to acquired inventory, as they are considered non-cash in nature and unrelated to our core operating performance.
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 either 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 are 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 April 29, 2008 that the Company has submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
