Silicon Image announced that its Board has authorized the repurchase of its common stock to an aggregate purchase of $50 million. The repurchases may occur from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions; provided that the repurchases are made in accordance with the terms of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and amount of any repurchase of shares will be determined by the company, based on its evaluation of market conditions, cash on hand and other factors, and may be made under a plan that complies with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

“We believe it is the right time to initiate a share repurchase plan and opportunistically repurchase shares to partially offset dilution. Further, it demonstrates our commitment to our shareholders and our confidence in our business going forward,” said Mr. Martino.

The authorization will stay in effect until the authorized aggregate amount is expended or the authorization is modified by the Board of Directors. The program does not obligate the company to acquire any particular amount of stock and purchases under the program may be commenced or suspended at any time, or from time to time, without prior notice. Further the stock repurchase program may be modified, extended or terminated by the Board at any time.

The following are Silicon Image’s financial performance estimates for the second quarter of 2012:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Silicon Image presents and discusses gross margin, operating expenses, net income (loss) and basic and diluted net income (loss) per share in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and on a non-GAAP basis for informational purposes only. Silicon Image believes that non-GAAP reporting, giving effect to the adjustments shown in the attached reconciliation, provides meaningful information and therefore uses non-GAAP reporting to supplement its GAAP reporting and internally in evaluating operations, managing and monitoring performance, and determining bonus compensation. Further, Silicon Image uses non-GAAP information as certain non-cash charges such as amortization of intangibles, stock based compensation, restructuring charges, impairment of intangible assets, business acquisition related expenses and reversal of a subsidiary’s foreign currency translation adjustment do not reflect the cash operating results of the business. Silicon Image has chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of its operating results and to illustrate the results of operations giving effect to such non-GAAP adjustments. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
