Both the broad-based mixed-signal and mobile handset businesses
grew sequentially in the first quarter. The broad-based mixed-signal
business grew five percent sequentially due in part to solid demand
for the ProSLIC® subscriber line interface products and mixed-signal
microcontrollers (MCUs). ProSLIC revenue increased by 60 percent
compared to the first quarter of 2005, benefiting from strength in the
VoIP market. The mixed-signal MCU business revenue increased
sequentially, and the portfolio expanded to include new, major product
families in USB and Embedded Ethernet.
The ramp of the company's FM tuner and continued strong demand in
the GSM/GPRS market were responsible for mobile handset revenue
growth. The company shipped a record number of RF transceivers and
continued to add FM tuner design wins and customers.
The company also reported progress on design activity for the
Aero® IIe EDGE transceiver, the SiRX® satellite set-top box
receiver and the oscillator products.
"We are pleased with the healthy demand for our products and the
progress we have made preparing our recently launched products for
mass production," said Necip Sayiner, president and CEO of Silicon
Laboratories. "We are focused on product execution and on winning new
market and customer opportunities to establish a solid foundation for
continued growth."
Financial Highlights
GAAP operating income for the first quarter was $11.0 million.
Non-GAAP operating income for the first quarter was $20.8 million or
18.2 percent of revenue. GAAP net income for the first quarter was
$11.1 million, or 19 cents per fully diluted share. Non-GAAP net
income per fully diluted share, excluding pro-forma charges was 33
cents. The reconciling charges are set forth in the reconciliation of
GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures table included below. The company
increased cash and short-term investments by approximately $43 million
to $407 million at quarter end.
For the second quarter of 2006, the company anticipates revenue of
$116 to $120 million.
