Business Outlook

Dr. Lu concluded, “Building on our growth momentum in the third quarter and record POS results, we expect fourth quarter revenue to increase to a record of approximately $324 million, plus or minus 3 percent, which at the mid-point represents growth of 4.7 percent sequentially and 7.6 percent year-over-year, which is significantly above typical seasonal results over the past 5 years of down 4 percent. These revenue expectations exclude any contribution from the Lite-On Semiconductor acquisition, which is expected to close at the end of November. We expect GAAP gross margin to be 36 percent, plus or minus 1 percent. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which are GAAP operating expenses adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, are expected to be approximately 22.0 percent of revenue, plus or minus 1 percent. We expect non-GAAP net interest expense to be approximately $1.5 million. Our income tax rate is expected to be 18 percent, plus or minus 3 percent, and shares used to calculate diluted EPS for the fourth quarter are anticipated to be approximately 53.0 million.”
