SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwire - Feb 1, 2012) - Inphi Corporation (
Revenue for the fourth quarter was $17.3 million, compared with $21.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2010.
As reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), fourth quarter 2011 net loss was $0.3 million, or ($0.01) per share, compared with GAAP net income of $3.0 million, or $0.11 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2010. GAAP net income and earnings per share for 2010 reflect in part a large income tax benefit recorded in 2010 related to the release and reversal of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets provided in previous periods.
Gross margin on a GAAP basis for the fourth quarter of 2011 was 63.8% of revenue, compared with 65.2% of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010.
Inphi reports gross margin, net income (loss), and earnings per share in accordance with GAAP and on a non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP gross margin, net income, and earnings per share, as well as a description of the items excluded from the non-GAAP calculations, is included in the financial statements portion of this news release.
Gross margin on a non GAAP basis for the fourth quarter of 2011 was 64.3% of revenue, compared with 65.5% of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010.
Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share. This compared with non-GAAP net income of $2.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share declined from the year-ago quarter due to lower non-GAAP net income, as well as a higher number of shares outstanding related to the company's issuance of common shares and the conversion of preferred shares into common shares, both in connection with the company's initial public offering.
"Q4 brought both a bottoming and a beginning of a resurgence in our server business," said Young K. Sohn, President and CEO of Inphi. "Last summer, we experienced headwinds in the form of supply chains that were largely focused on minimizing inventory risk. However, during Q4 customers began to loosen the reins and rebuild their supply chains.
"Heading into Q1 of 2012, we anticipate the March introduction of exciting next-generation server platforms that will use our Isolation Memory Buffer (iMB™) and RDIMM products that we expect will drive additional growth throughout the year. In addition, our new 100GbE iPHY™ CMOS solutions continue to sample and have been well received, leading to exciting new design wins. We believe strongly in our growth opportunities during 2012 and beyond."

| RECONCILIATION OF GAAP NET INCOME TO NON-GAAP NET INCOME |
| (in thousands of dollars, except share and per share amounts) |
To supplement the financial data presented on a GAAP basis, the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude stock-based compensation, taxes related to the transition to a more international business structure, release of the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets and restructuring charges of our Taiwan subsidiary. It also includes the assumed conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock which occurred in connection with the initial public offering. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with GAAP. These results should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The Company believes that its non-GAAP financial information provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations because it excludes charges or benefits that management considers to be outside of the Company's core operating results. The Company believes that the non-GAAP measures of gross margin, net income, earnings per share and weighted average shares outstanding in combination with the Company's financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective and a more meaningful understanding of the Company's ongoing operating performance. In addition, the Company's management uses these non-GAAP measures to review and assess the financial performance of the Company, to determine executive officer incentive compensation and to plan and forecast performance in future periods. The Company's non-GAAP measurements are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, and are not an alternative to GAAP financial information, and may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial information disclosed by other companies.
