MoSys, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — October 19, 2012 — MoSys, Inc., (NASDAQ: MOSY), a leader in semiconductor solutions that enable fast, intelligent data access for network and communications systems, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Third Quarter and Recent Highlights

Management Commentary

“MoSys enjoyed a high level of sales activity during the quarter, as we continued to engage with customers and partners in a concentrated effort to accelerate the design win process and further expand our pipeline of design wins in-progress,” commented Len Perham, MoSys’ President and Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, we are actively working with our lead OEM customers as they finalize their system-level specifications and advance toward first prototype system builds. We anticipate these customers will achieve full system qualification and initial production releases in the second half of 2013.

“During the quarter, we completed our extensive logic verification process and have now progressed deeply into the timing verification of our second generation Bandwidth Engine IC family. We expect to tape out this month and be ready to sample by mid-to-late February 2013. The second generation Bandwidth Engine architecture will support multiple new technology enhancements aimed at optimizing performance in next generation networking systems targeted to run at speeds up to 400 Gigabits per second. In fact, we recently announced the first two products in the second generation family, which are optimized for buffering and high speed access applications. The new family of devices is expected to achieve up to 50% faster I/O speeds, substantially increased access rates and include advanced offload features to reduce memory transactions and latency. We believe the improved performance and capabilities of these second generation devices will allow us to serve a wider range of applications, and, therefore, compete for more sockets in next-generation systems,” concluded Mr. Perham.

Third Quarter Results

Total net revenue for the third quarter of 2012 was $1.3 million compared with $1.7 million reported in the second quarter of 2012 and $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2011.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement MoSys’ consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, MoSys uses non-GAAP financial measures that exclude from the statement of operations the effects of stock-based compensation and amortization of recorded intangible assets. MoSys’ management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors and other interested persons because they are one of the primary indicators that MoSys’ management uses for planning and forecasting future performance. MoSys’ management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items is useful to investors because MoSys’ management does not consider these charges part of the day-to-day business or reflective of the core operational activities of the Company that are within the control of management or that would be used to evaluate management’s operating performance.

Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is provided in a table below the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. For additional information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures, and management’s explanation of why it considers such measures to be useful, refer to the Form 8-K dated October 19, 2012, that the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
