SUNNYVALE, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — January 29, 2015 — PMC-Sierra, Inc. (PMC®) (Nasdaq: PMCS), the semiconductor and software solutions innovator transforming networks that connect, move and store big data, today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 27, 2014.

Net revenues in the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $136.9 million, an increase of one percent from $135.5 million in the third quarter of 2014 and an increase of 7.9 percent, compared to $126.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Storage product revenues in the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $98.4 million, an increase of 8.3 percent from $90.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.

GAAP net income in the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $2.3 million or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a GAAP net income in the third quarter of 2014 of $5.5 million or $0.03 per diluted share.

Non-GAAP net income in the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $22.7 million or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $22.5 million or $0.11 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2014.

“Due to strong Storage and record OTN revenues in the fourth quarter, we grew revenue eight percent over the same quarter last year,” said Greg Lang, PMC president and chief executive officer. “And each of our four major growth drivers started contributing revenue in 2014, positioning PMC for continued growth in 2015.”

Net income on a non-GAAP basis in the fourth quarter of 2014 excludes the following items: (i) $6.8 million stock-based compensation expense, (ii) $11 million amortization of purchased intangible assets; (iii) $2.7 million foreign exchange gain on foreign tax liabilities; (iv) $3.9 million provision for income tax matters; and (v) $1.3 million other adjustments as described in the accompanying GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation table.

For the full year ended December 27, 2014, net revenues were $525.6 million, compared to $508.0 million for the year ended December 28, 2013, an increase of 3.5 percent year over year. GAAP operating income for the full year 2014 was $11.1 million compared to GAAP operating loss of $13.2 million reported in the year ended December 28, 2013. Non-GAAP operating income for the full year 2014 was $83.1 million compared to non-GAAP operating income of $68.4 million the prior year. GAAP net income for the full year 2014 was $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of $32.3 million, or $0.16 loss per share the prior year. Non-GAAP net income in the year ended December 27, 2014, was $79.5 million or $0.40 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $68.3 million or $0.33 per diluted share in the year ended December 28, 2013.

For a full reconciliation of each non-GAAP item used herein to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please refer to the schedule included with this release. The Company believes the additional non-GAAP measures are useful to investors for the purpose of financial analysis. Management uses the non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate its in-period operating performance before gains, losses and other charges that are considered by management to be outside of the Company’s core operating results. In addition, the measures are used to plan for the Company’s future periods. However, non-GAAP measures are neither stated in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures.

As a supplement to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company provides additional non-GAAP measures for cost of revenues, gross profit, gross profit percentage, research and development expense, selling, general and administrative expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, other income (expense), (provision for) recovery of income taxes, operating expenses, operating income (loss), operating margin percentage, net income (loss), and basic and diluted net income (loss) per share.

A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that the additional non-GAAP measures are useful to investors for the purpose of financial analysis. Management uses these measures internally to evaluate the Company's in-period operating performance before gains, losses and other charges that are considered by management to be outside of the Company's core operating results. In addition, the measures are used for planning and forecasting of the Company's future periods. However, non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. Other companies may use different non-GAAP measures and presentation of results.
