Section 2 - Financial Information
Item 2.02 - Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On December 15, 2005, Standard Microsystems Corporation issued a press release
announcing its financial results for its third quarter ended November 30, 2005.
A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
Use of non-GAAP Financial Information
Included within the press release are non-GAAP financial measures relating to
the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations that supplement the
Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations prepared under general accepted
accounting principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures adjust the
Company's actual results prepared under GAAP to exclude non-cash charges
relating to the Company's acquisitions of OASIS SiliconSystems Holding AG and
Gain Technology Corporation, and adjustments to remove the impact of non-cash
charges relating to the Company's stock appreciation rights program. The
non-GAAP measures have been reconciled to and should be considered together with
the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These non-GAAP measures are not meant
as a substitute for GAAP, but are included solely for informational and
comparative purposes. The Company's management believes that this information is
an additional measure that assists in evaluating operational trends and should
not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding GAAP measures.
The information in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor
shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended.
