“I am pleased to see our new product revenues ramping in multiple markets. In the near term, we will closely monitor the macroeconomic conditions and control expenses,” said Michael Hsing, CEO and founder of MPS. “We are well positioned for future growth.”
Business Outlook
The following are MPS’ financial targets for the third quarter ending September 30, 2012:
|
|
·
|
Revenue in the range of $56 million to $60 million.
|
|
|
·
|
Gross margin will be in a range similar to Q2 2012.
|
|
|
·
|
GAAP research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses between $24.0 million and $26.0 million. Non-GAAP(1) research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses between $20.0 million and $21.5 million. This excludes an estimate of stock-based compensation expense in the range of $4.0 million to $4.5 million.
|
(1) Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per share, Non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses differ from net income, earnings per share, operating expenses, and research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses determined in accordance with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States). Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP earnings per share for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense and its related tax effect. Non-GAAP operating expenses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense. Projected non-GAAP research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A schedule reconciling non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release. MPS utilizes both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to assess what it believes to be its core operating performance and to evaluate and manage its internal business and assist in making financial operating decisions. MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an alternative presentation useful to investors' understanding of MPS’ core operating results and trends. Additionally, MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an additional dimension of comparability to similar companies. However, investors should be aware that non-GAAP financial measures utilized by other companies are not likely to be comparable in most cases to the non-GAAP financial measures used by MPS.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, our ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers; acceptance of, or demand for, MPS’ products, in particular the new products launched within the past 18 months, being different than expected; competition generally and the increasingly competitive nature of our industry; any market disruptions or interruptions in MPS’ schedule of new product release development; adverse changes in production and testing efficiency of our products; adverse changes in government regulations in foreign countries where MPS has offices or operations; the effect of catastrophic events; adequate supply of our products from our third-party manufacturer; the risks, uncertainties and costs of litigation in which we are involved; the outcome of any upcoming trials, hearings, motions and appeals; the adverse impact on MPS’ financial performance if its tax and litigation provisions are inadequate; adverse changes or developments in the semiconductor industry generally; difficulty in predicting or budgeting for future customer demand and channel inventories, expenses and financial contingencies; and other important risk factors identified in MPS’ SEC filings, including, but not limited to, its Form 10-K filed on March 12, 2012.
