MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Oct 28, 2008 -- Actel Corporation (NASDAQ: ACTL) today announced net revenues of $53.2 million for the third quarter of 2008, down 8 percent from the second quarter of 2008 and up 11 percent from the third quarter of 2007.

Non-GAAP net income, which excludes stock-based compensation, option restatement expenses, and other nonrecurring adjustments, was $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2008 compared with $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2008 and $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2007. Non-GAAP earnings were $0.07 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2008 compared with $0.15 for the second quarter of 2008 and $0.12 for the third quarter of 2007.

Including stock-based compensation and other adjustments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), Actel reported a net loss of $1.4 million, or ($0.05) per basic share, for the third quarter of 2008 compared with net income of $2.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2008 and net income of $1.8 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2007.

Gross margin was 58.0 percent for the third quarter of 2008 compared with 60.0 percent for the second quarter of 2008 and 59.7 percent for the third quarter of 2007.

Business Outlook - Fourth Quarter 2008

The company believes that fourth quarter 2008 revenues will be flat to four percent down sequentially. Gross margin is expected to be around 59 to 60 percent. Operating expenses are anticipated to come in at approximately $29 million, which excludes an estimated $1.8 million of stock-based compensation expense. Other income is expected to be about $1.5 million. The tax provision for the quarter is expected to be a credit of approximately $1 million. Outstanding fully diluted share count is expected to be about 25.9 million shares. The guidance for operating expenses does not include the ongoing amortization of intangibles and deferred compensation for the acquisition of Pigeon Point Systems of approximately $0.7 million or the one time charge for the reduction in force that is expected to be around $3 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share data, and other non-GAAP line items from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, including total costs and expenses, income from operations, and income before tax provision. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP adjustments are provided to enhance the user's overall understanding of our operating performance. Actel believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures, when shown in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to both management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Actel's financial condition and results of operations, in particular by excluding certain expense and income items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. Actel believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. In addition, since we have historically reported non-GAAP results to the investment community, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting.

Forward-Looking Statement Safe Harbor

The statements in the paragraph under the heading "Business Outlook - Fourth Quarter 2008" are forward-looking statements made under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and should be read with the "Risk Factors" in Actel's most recent Form 10-Q, which can be found on Actel's web site, www.actel.com. Actel's quarterly revenues and operating results are subject to a multitude of risks, including general economic conditions and a variety of risks specific to Actel or characteristic of the semiconductor industry, such as fluctuating demand, intense competition, rapid technological change and related intellectual property and international trade issues, wafer and other supply shortages, and booking and shipment uncertainties. These and the other Risk Factors make it difficult for Actel to accurately project quarterly revenues and operating results, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.
