Silicon Image Cautions on Mobile Outlook

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Silicon Image SIMG, a leading provider of multimedia connectivity solutions and services, today announced that it expects a year-over-year revenue decline in 2015 of approximately 10% due to a reduction in mobile design wins at one of its largest customers.

The decline in the mobile business segment is expected to be partially offset by continued strength in the company's CE business segment due to continued penetration of MHL^® in mainstream TVs, and the popularity of 4K Ultra HD where the company has multiple HDMI^® 2.0 / MHL 3.0 designs.

“Although we believe that both our CE and licensing businesses will remain strong, we now anticipate top line 2015 revenues to be down compared to 2014,” said Camillo Martino, chief executive officer of Silicon Image. “While we continue to execute on our long term strategic growth initiatives, we remain committed to reduce our operating expenses in 2015 and anticipate that even with a top line revenue decline, we will remain profitable with operating margin as a percent of revenue expected to be flat to slightly up for the year.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Silicon Image presents and discusses gross margin, operating expenses, net income (loss) and basic and diluted net income (loss) per share in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and on a non-GAAP basis for informational purposes only. Silicon Image believes that non-GAAP reporting provides meaningful information and therefore uses non-GAAP reporting to supplement its GAAP reporting and internally in evaluating operations, managing and monitoring performance, and determining bonus compensation. Further, Silicon Image uses non-GAAP information as certain non-cash charges such as amortization of intangibles, stock based compensation, restructuring charges, business acquisition related expenses and reversal of a subsidiary's foreign currency translation adjustment do not reflect the cash operating results of the business. Silicon Image has chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of its operating results and to illustrate the results of operations giving effect to such non-GAAP adjustments. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
