Forward-Looking Statements

The statements contained in this press release that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding GSI Technology's expectations, beliefs, intentions, or strategies regarding the future, including, without limitation, statements regarding GSI Technology's preliminary inclusion in the Russell 2000® Index, the timing and completion of the 2026 Russell indexes reconstitution, the expected benefits of index inclusion, and GSI Technology'sS future visibility within the investment community. All forward-looking statements included in this press release are based upon information available to GSI Technology as of the date hereof, and GSI Technology assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve a variety of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.

GSI Technology's preliminary inclusion in the Russell 2000® Index is based on FTSE Russell's initial evaluation and is subject to change prior to the final reconstitution. There can be no assurance that GSI Technology will be included in the final Russell 2000® Index, that index inclusion will increase trading volume or institutional ownership of the Company's common stock, or that index inclusion will have a positive effect on the Company's stock price. Additionally, GSI Technology's actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those associated with fluctuations in its operating results; its historical dependence on sales to a limited number of customers and fluctuations in the mix of customers and products in any period; global public health crises that reduce economic activity; the rapidly evolving markets for its products and uncertainty regarding the development of these markets; the need to develop and introduce new products to offset the historical decline in the average unit selling price of its products; the challenges of rapid growth followed by periods of contraction; intensive competition; the continued availability of government funding opportunities; delays or unanticipated costs that may be encountered in the development of new products based on its in-place associative computing technology and the establishment of new markets and customer and partner relationships for the sale of such products; delays or unexpected challenges related to the establishment of customer relationships and orders for its radiation-hardened and tolerant SRAM products; and general market conditions that may affect investor interest in companies newly added to the Russell 2000® Index. Many of these risks are currently amplified by and will continue to be amplified by, or in the future may be amplified by, economic and geopolitical conditions, such as changing interest rates, worldwide inflationary pressures, policy unpredictability, the imposition of tariffs and other trade barriers, military conflicts and a challenging global economic environment. These risks are discussed in more detail in GSI Technology's most recently-filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and its other reports filed from time to time with the SEC. You are urged to review carefully and consider GSI Technology's various disclosures in this press release and in its reports publicly disclosed or filed with the SEC that attempt to advise you of the risks and factors that may affect its business.
