Non-GAAP income and non-GAAP operating margins exclude transitional idle capacity and inventory abandonments, manufacturing profit in acquired inventory, amortization of intangible assets, stock option compensation, IPR&D, gain on disposition of assets and restructuring and other special charges.
James J. Peterson, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are very pleased that our earnings for the quarter were ahead of analyst estimates. We are well positioned with our new products and see a number of opportunities to introduce existing products into new applications and new markets; and this coupled with what some in the industry characterize as a broad recovery, leads us to believe we should see continued improvement in the coming quarter."
The book-to-bill ratio for the quarter was 1.12 to 1.00.
Business Outlook
Microsemi expects that for the third quarter of fiscal year 2007 our sales will increase between 4 to 6 percent, sequentially. On a non-GAAP basis, we expect earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2007 to be $0.23 to $0.25 per diluted share.

To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), we use non-GAAP financial measures (non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP income before taxes, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share) that exclude transitional idle capacity and inventory abandonments, manufacturing profit in acquired inventory, amortization of intangible assets, stock option compensation, gain or loss on disposition of assets and restructuring and other special charges. Management excludes these items because it believes that the non-GAAP measures enhance an investor's overall understanding of the Company's financial performance and future prospects by being more reflective of the Company's core operational activities and to be more comparable with the results of the Company over various periods. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating current performance. Guidance is provided only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of such items. These items could be materially significant in our GAAP results in any period. By disclosing non-GAAP financial measures, management intends to provide investors with a more meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company's core operating results and trends for the periods presented. Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP; therefore, the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies' financial information and should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), we use non-GAAP financial measures (non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP income before taxes, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share) that exclude transitional idle capacity and inventory abandonments, manufacturing profit in acquired inventory, amortization of intangible assets, stock option compensation, gain or loss on disposition of assets and restructuring and other special charges. Management excludes these items because it believes that the non-GAAP measures enhance an investor's overall understanding of the Company's financial performance and future prospects by being more reflective of the Company's core operational activities and to be more comparable with the results of the Company over various periods. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating current performance. Guidance is provided only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of such items. These items could be materially significant in our GAAP results in any period. By disclosing non-GAAP financial measures, management intends to provide investors with a more meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company's core operating results and trends for the periods presented. Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP; therefore, the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies' financial information and should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
The items excluded from GAAP financial results in calculating non-GAAP financial results, are set forth below:
(a) The restructuring activities involve the closure and consolidation of
our manufacturing facilities. As these facilities are not expected to
have a continuing contribution to operations or have a diminishing
contribution during the transition phase, management believes
excluding such items from the Company's operations provides investors
with a means of evaluating the Company's on-going operations.
Transitional idle capacity relates to unused manufacturing capacity
and non-productive manufacturing expenses during the period from when
shutdown activities commence to when all transition activities are
completed. Inventory abandonments relate to identification and
disposal of inventory that will not be utilized after a product line
is transferred to a new manufacturing location. Loss on disposition
of assets results from abandonment of non-productive assets in
accordance with a restructuring plan. Restructuring and other
special charges includes severance and other costs related to
facilities in the process of closing or already closed. Management
excludes these expenses when evaluating core operating activities and
for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and
evaluating current performance.
(b) While amortization of acquisition related intangible assets is
expected to continue in the future, for internal analysis of the
Company's operations, management does not view this expense as
reflective of the business' current performance.
(c) Stock option compensation in connection with the SFAS123R has been
excluded as management excludes these expenses when evaluating core
operating activities and for strategic decision making, forecasting
future results and evaluating current performance.
(d) In-process research and development has been excluded to facilitate
the comparability of expenses between periods. In addition,
management does not include IPR&D, a one-time acquisition-related
charge, in measuring core research and development costs, nor does
it believe that IPR&D is indicative of current or future spending.
(e) Manufacturing profit in acquired inventory resulted from
purchase-accounting adjustments to increase the value of inventory
acquired in the PowerDsine transaction to its fair value. As the
acquired inventory is sold, the associated manufacturing profit in
acquired inventory increases cost of goods sold and reduces gross
margins. The manufacturing profit in acquired inventory has been
excluded to facilitate comparability of gross margins between
periods. In addition, management excludes the impact of
manufacturing profit in acquired inventory in internal measurements
of gross margin as it does not reflect continuing operations at
PowerDsine. Manufacturing profit in acquired inventory from the
PowerDsine acquisition will not materially impact gross margins
beyond the second quarter of fiscal year 2007.
(f) Bad debt represents write off of accounts receivable from a minor
distributor. This amount is excluded from our GAAP results because
it is highly unusual and has never happened before.
