In Q3 we posted a record number of design wins and released 25 new products which are positive indicators for future growth.” “As we enter our seasonally weakest quarter, we see continued macro-economic uncertainty. In addition we also expect our Q4 results to be adversely impacted by the recent floods in Thailand." Semtech's board also authorized a $50 million increase to the company's stock buyback program.
