Guidance for the Second Quarter of 2019

Comments of Management

Shaike Orbach, Silicom's President and CEO, commented, "We are pleased to report a solid first quarter demonstrating the continued power of our business to generate revenues and a continuous stream of cash. Our growth engines remain Edge uCPE devices and FPGA-based solutions, both of which are markets at the beginning of their growth curves.

"In the Edge space, while the many wins that we have already secured, together with our fat pipeline of potential wins, make us pleased with our strategic positioning, we continue to see delays in our customer's Edge deployments and growing uncertainty about their ramp-up timelines. This timing issue – which we believe is short-term in nature - is reflected in our moderate guidance for the second quarter and our limited visibility for the remainder of 2019. At the same time, we remain confident and enthusiastic about Edge's long-term potential and continue to build out our portfolio of products and platforms to help transform its promise to reality. We expect to secure many additional significant Edge wins over time, like the one we announced today."

Mr. Orbach continued, "In the FPGA space, during the quarter we announced two important new wins: one from a leading cloud player for a potentially massive network-wide implementation, and another from a global communications leader who will be deploying our FPGA-based smart NICs in data centers throughout the world. Besides promising significant multi-year revenues, these showcase wins demonstrate the advantage of our technology, the key to generating further interest from additional Cloud, Service Providers and other players. We continue to invest significantly in developing our FPGA technology and predict that it will become a major revenue driver for our business in the years ahead."
