"We are executing our gross margin improvement plan and extending our market leadership with new products. Customers are adopting our industry-leading technologies in their next-generation platforms, which we believe will drive revenue growth and meaningful share gains."

Revenue was $404.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared with $415.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $327.5 million in the first quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Measures

This release includes measures, such as non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating income, and non-GAAP earnings per share ("EPS") that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Management uses non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS to evaluate business performance without the impacts of certain non-cash charges and other charges which are not part of our usual operations. We use these non-GAAP measures to assess performance against business objectives and make business decisions, including developing budgets and forecasting future periods. In addition, management's incentive plans include certain of these non-GAAP measures as criteria for achievements. These non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. However, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide additional information that enables readers to evaluate our business from the perspective of management. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The non-GAAP results presented below exclude the impact of non-cash related charges, such as stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, and long-term unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses. In addition, we exclude discontinued operations and other items such as acquisition-related costs, facility, infrastructure, and other transition costs, and restructuring expenses, as they are not indicative of future performance. The tax effect of our non-GAAP adjustments represents the anticipated annual tax rate applied to each non-GAAP adjustment after consideration of their respective book and tax treatments.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release and statements we make on the above announced conference call contain, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements in this press release or the conference call that are not historical information are forward-looking statements.
