Business Outlook

The following are MPS' financial targets for the third quarter ending September 30, 2015:

(1) Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per share, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP operating income differ from net income, earnings per share, gross margin, operating expenses and operating income determined in accordance with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States). Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, acquisition-related expense, deferred compensation plan income/expense and related tax effects. Non-GAAP gross margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Non-GAAP operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense and deferred compensation plan income/expense.  Non-GAAP operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 excludes the effect of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, acquisition-related expense and deferred compensation plan income/expense. Projected non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effect of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Projected non-GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A schedule reconciling non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release. MPS utilizes both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to assess what it believes to be its core operating performance and to evaluate and manage its internal business and assist in making financial operating decisions. MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an alternative presentation useful to investors' understanding of MPS' core operating results and trends. Additionally, MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an additional dimension of comparability to similar companies. However, investors should be aware that non-GAAP financial measures utilized by other companies are not likely to be comparable in most cases to the non-GAAP financial measures used by MPS.
