Exhibit 99.1
MEMSIC Announces Second Quarter 2008 Financial Results
Andover, MA – August 7, 2008 – MEMSIC, Inc. (NasdaqGM: MEMS), the industry’s only MEMS solution provider to combine proprietary thermal-based technology with advanced mixed signal processing circuitry onto a single chip using a standard CMOS IC process, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008.
Revenue for the second quarter of 2008 was $3.6 million, a 30% decrease from the second quarter of 2007, including the impact of a $2.0 million revenue reversal related to the Olympic torch project, as previously disclosed. Net loss in the second quarter was ($1.4) million on a GAAP basis, or ($0.06) per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2007. On a non-GAAP basis, which excludes stock-based compensation charges of approximately $305,000, net loss was ($1.1) million, or ($0.05) per diluted share, compared to a non-GAAP net income of $1.2 million, which excludes stock-based compensation charges of $73,000, in the second quarter of 2007.
Dr. Yang Zhao, Chief Executive Officer of MEMSIC said, “A slowdown in our consumer-driven mobile handset market in China combined with the cancellation of our Olympics torch project resulted in revenue considerably below our original second quarter projections. These events reinforce the importance of our strategy to diversify our product line, target markets, and customer base. To do this, we continue to invest in R&D and we expect to accelerate the development of competitive products that we will bring to market over the coming quarters and beyond.”
Outlook
For the third quarter of 2008, MEMSIC anticipates revenue in the range of $4.8 to $5.3 million. GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2008 is anticipated to be in the range of ($0.01) to $0.00 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income, which excludes approximately $320,000 in stock-based compensation expenses, is anticipated to be in the range of $0.00 to $0.01 per diluted share. Average diluted share count for the quarter is estimated to be 24.0 million.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
A “non-GAAP financial measure” is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance that excludes amounts that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in the GAAP statement of operations. MEMSIC is providing the non-GAAP historical and forward-looking financial measures presented above as the company believes that these figures are helpful in allowing individuals to better assess the ongoing nature of MEMSIC’s core operations.
Net income (loss) (non-GAAP) and net income (loss) per share (non-GAAP), as we present them in the financial data included in this press release, exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense. The company uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to focus management on period-to-period changes in the company’s core business. Therefore, the company believes that this information is meaningful in addition to the information contained in the GAAP presentation of financial information. The presentation of this additional non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management will hold a conference call and webcast at 5:00 p.m. ET today to review and discuss the Company’s results and outlook.

Safe Harbor Statement
Statements included in this press release which are not historical in nature, including statements about MEMSIC’s expected financial results for 2008, are forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. When used in this press release the terms “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “objective,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “project,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ include those identified under the heading “Risk Factors” in the company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, as well as the following: our limited operating history makes it difficult to
evaluate our business and prospects; our operating results may fluctuate and are difficult to predict and if we do not meet financial expectations of securities analysts or investors, the price of our common stock will likely decline; we do not have long-term purchase commitments from our customers, and our ability to accurately forecast demand for and sales of our products is limited, which may result in excess or insufficient inventory and uncertainty and volatility with respect to our revenue from period to period; we depend on a limited number of customers for a high percentage of our revenues, and the loss of, or a significant reduction in orders from, any of these customers would significantly reduce our revenues; our products are complex and defects in our products could result in a loss of customers, damage to our reputation, decreased revenue, unexpected expenses, loss of market share and warranty and product liability claims; we may not be able to manage our business growth effectively, and failure to do so could strain our management, operating and other resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business and growth potential; and the average selling prices of products in our markets have historically decreased rapidly and will likely do so in the future, which could harm our gross margins and results.
The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.
