Our fourth-quarter revenue of $167.8 million was above the midpoint of our guidance, but down 11% from the $188.7 million in revenue of the prior quarter. All divisions experienced normal seasonal declines. We continued to execute very well on our operating expense management initiatives, enabling us to deliver earnings at the high end of our guidance. We thus are prepared to deliver strong operating leverage as we return to revenue growth in 2014.
We exited 2013 with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.08, a high point since the first quarter of 2012. The book-to-bill ratio of all divisions was above unity with our Programmable Systems Division leading the way at 1.15. Lead times remain low; our distributors decreased their inventories to their lowest levels in three years. As such, we expect less-than-normal seasonal revenue declines in the first quarter of 2014. Our design win pipeline for our new TrueTouch® touchscreen products is finally beginning to recover. We expect our revenue to remain in a seasonal trough in the first quarter and then to increase during the rest of 2014.
Note that we produced $167.8 million in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2013 vs. $180.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, down $12.5 million, but that our pretax profit was still up $7.9 million. This was due to record-low operating expenses.
BUSINESS REVIEW
+ Our non-GAAP consolidated gross margin for the fourth quarter was 51.0%, down 2.8 percentage points from the previous quarter, due primarily to reduced amortization of manufacturing expenses by lower revenue. Excluding our Emerging Technologies Division (ETD), our core semiconductor gross margin was 52.3%. ETD revenue is growing rapidly (see Net Sales Summary table) and will contribute significantly to revenue growth in 2014.
+ Net inventory at the end of the fourth quarter was $100.6 million, down from the third quarter.

FOURTH-QUARTER 2013 HIGHLIGHTS
+ Cypress was issued its one-hundredth patent for its TrueTouch® capacitive touchscreen controllers. The patent relates to the TrueTouch Gen5 family’s unmatched immunity to electrical noise from chargers and displays, which can render touchscreens unusable. The company continues to expand its touch patent portfolio, with more than 200 patents pending.
+ Cypress announced that its partnership with Fujifilm of Japan has created new TrueTouch controllers that support Fujifilm’s metal mesh sensors. Cypress believes these sensors to be the most advanced and cost-effective on the market. Metal mesh sensors deliver significantly better scanning performance than traditional indium tin oxide (ITO) sensors.
+ Cypress shipped its one-billionth CapSense® capacitive touch-sensing controller. Cypress's CapSense solutions have replaced more than five billion mechanical buttons, producing four times the revenue of its nearest competitor.
+ The research and analytics firm Chipworks noted the use of a Cypress CapSense controller in a recent teardown of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 smartphone. The teardown also determined that the controller enables the ability to register touches from users wearing gloves.
+ Cypress held a global design competition promoting the use of its new PSoC® 4 programmable system-on-chip to develop intelligent, forward-looking embedded systems for homes, offices and cars. The design challenge was based on the easy-to-use PSoC 4 Pioneer Kit, which just won distributor element14’s development kit of the year award, beating entries from Texas Instruments and Freescale.
+ Digital multimedia supplier AVerMedia Technologies selected Cypress’s EZ-USB® FX3™ (USB 3.0) controller for its new high-definition (HD) video capture card. AVerMedia’s ExtremeCap U3 card records and streams game play at full HD resolution. The card uses the 5-Gbps FX3 solution to capture HD video without compression, improving image quality.
+ Cypress announced production availability of the CYFB0072 high-density video frame buffer, which addresses the increasing demand for high-bandwidth video buffering. The device contains 72 Mbits of high-performance SRAM in an interface that simplifies implementation and debugging.
+ Seiko Epson selected Cypress’s CY5077C programmable clock generator die for its new SG-8003CG programmable crystal oscillator. The die delivers precise, programmable frequency output to the ultra-small oscillator. The flexible combination provides fast time-to-market and low power consumption for a wide variety of electronics equipment. Cypress has shipped a cumulative 880 million crystal oscillator chips.
+ L-3 Cincinnati Electronics, a division of L-3 Communications, selected Cypress to manufacture its Readout Integrated Circuits (ROICs). L-3 will use the proprietary process technology of Cypress’s wafer fabrication facility in Bloomington, Minnesota to design and manufacture these ROICs for its cooled infrared detectors.
+ D-Wave Systems successfully transferred its proprietary process technology for building quantum computing microprocessors to Cypress’s wafer foundry in Bloomington.
+ Cypress announced that its Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.11 per share, payable to holders of record of the company’s common stock as of the close of business on December 26, 2013. This dividend was paid on January 16, 2014.

Notes to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, Cypress uses non-GAAP financial measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to exclude certain items, as described in details below. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional and useful way of viewing aspects of Cypress’s operations that, when viewed in conjunction with Cypress’s GAAP results, provide a more comprehensive understanding of the various factors and trends affecting Cypress’s business and operations. Non-GAAP financial measures used by Cypress include:
| • | Gross margin; |
| • | Research and development expenses; |
| • | Selling, general and administrative expenses; |
| • | Operating income (loss); |
| • | Net income (loss); and |
| • | Diluted net income (loss) per share. |
Cypress uses each of these non-GAAP financial measures for internal managerial purposes, when providing its financial results and business outlook to the public, and to facilitate period-to-period comparisons. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Cypress’s operational and financial performance of current and historical results. Management uses these non-GAAP measures for strategic and business decision making, internal budgeting, forecasting and resource allocation processes. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management’s internal comparisons to Cypress’s historical operating results and comparisons to competitors’ operating results.
Cypress believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the GAAP financial results, are useful to investors because they allow investors to see Cypress’s results “through the eyes” of management as these non-GAAP financial measures reflect Cypress’s internal measurement processes. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to better assess changes in each key element of Cypress’s operating results across different reporting periods on a consistent basis. Thus, management believes that each of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with another method for assessing Cypress’s operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of its ongoing operations.
There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures may be limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon Cypress’s reported financial results. Management compensates for these limitations by providing investors with reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures supplement, and should be viewed in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures. Investors should review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the accompanying press release.
As presented in the “Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Measures to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” tables in the accompanying press release, each of the non-GAAP financial measures excludes one or more of the following items:
| • | Stock-based compensation expense. |
Stock-based compensation expense relates primarily to the equity awards such as stock options and restricted stock. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are often beyond Cypress’s control. As a result, management excludes this item from Cypress’s internal operating forecasts and models. Management believes that non-GAAP measures adjusted for stock-based compensation provide investors with a basis to measure Cypress’s core performance against the performance of other companies without the variability created by stock-based compensation as a result of the variety of equity awards used by companies and the varying methodologies and subjective assumptions used in determining such non-cash expense.
| • | Changes in value of Cypress’s key employee deferred compensation plan. |
Cypress sponsors a voluntary deferred compensation plan which provides certain key employees with the option to defer the receipt of compensation in order to accumulate funds for retirement. The amounts are held in a trust and Cypress does not make contributions to the deferred compensation plan or guarantee returns on the investment. Changes in the value of the investments under the plan are excluded from the non-GAAP measures. Management believes that such non-cash item is not related to the ongoing core business and operating performance of Cypress, as the investment contributions are made by the employees themselves.
| • | Restructuring charges. |
Restructuring charges primarily relate to activities engaged by management to make changes related to its infrastructure in an effort to reduce costs. Restructuring charges are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because they are not considered core operating activities and such costs have not historically occurred in each year. Although Cypress has engaged in various restructuring activities in the past, each has been a discrete event based on a unique set of business objectives. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to exclude restructuring charges from Cypress’s non-GAAP financial measures as it enhances the ability of investors to compare Cypress’s period-over-period operating results from continuing operations.
| • | Acquisition-related expense. |
Acquisition-related expense primarily includes: (1) amortization of intangibles, which include acquired intangibles such as purchased technology, patents and trademarks, (2) costs such as advisory, legal, accounting and other professional or consulting fees related to acquisitions, (3) severance expense incurred in connection with acquisition-related headcount reduction efforts, and (4) earn-out compensation expense, which include compensation resulting from the achievement of milestones established in accordance with the terms of the acquisitions. In most cases, these acquisition-related charges are not factored into management’s evaluation of potential acquisitions or Cypress’s performance after completion of acquisitions, because they are not related to Cypress’s core operating performance. Adjustments of these items provide investors with a basis to compare Cypress against the performance of other companies without the variability caused by purchase accounting.
| • | Impairment of assets. |
Cypress wrote down the book value of certain assets to their estimated fair value as management determined these assets will be donated, sold or will have no future benefit. Cypress excludes these items because the expense is not reflective of its ongoing operating results. Excluding this data allows investors to better compare Cypress’s period-over-period performance without such expense.
| • | Taxes, tax effects and foreign currency gain/loss. |
Cypress adjusts for the income tax effect that resulted from the non-GAAP adjustments as described above. Additionally, Cypress also excludes the impact of items that are related to historical activities in nature and not reflective of the ongoing operating results of Cypress, which can include completion of examinations by our U.S. or foreign taxing authorities, lapse of statutes of limitations and the resolution of agreements with domestic and various foreign tax authorities. This also includes foreign currency gain or loss effects on the activities mentioned above.
| • | Investment-related gains/losses. |
Investment-related gains/losses primarily include: (1) impairment loss related to Cypress’s investment when it determines the decline in fair value is other-than-temporary in nature, and (2) gains/losses related to the sales of its debt and equity investments. These items are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because they are not related to the core operating activities and operating performance of Cypress, and in most cases, such transactions have not historically occurred in every quarter. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to exclude investment-related gains/losses from Cypress’s non-GAAP financial measures, as it enhances the ability of investors to compare Cypress’s period-over-period operating results.
| • | Patent license fee. |
This fee relates to an agreement we entered into providing Cypress a license to a substantial patent portfolio, avoidance of future litigation expenses as well as future customer disruption. We determined that a portion of the agreement relates to cumulative costs for prior years. Management excluded the one-time charge which relates to prior years from the non-GAAP measures because it does not relate to Cypress’ core business or impact its ongoing operating performance.
| • | Non-cash compensation. |
Cypress provides awards to employees who reach certain years of service with the Company. This amount represents the accrual for benefits for awards that will be paid in the future. This non-cash expense is not reflective of Cypress’s ongoing operating results and is excluded from its non-GAAP financial measures.
