Management Qualitative Comments

The third quarter of our fiscal 2013 was a record quarter for InvenSense," said Behrooz Abdi, president and CEO.  "In addition to achieving record levels of revenue and unit shipments, we saw significant design activity across our multi-axis MotionTracking products, including our newly announced, second generation 9-axis products, which include an integrated gyroscope and accelerometer together with a compass solution inside an industry leading 3x3x1mm package.  The advanced capability of our innovative MotionTracking solutions is ideally suited for multiple market trends in the mobile and gaming markets as the demand for contextually aware consumer products drive the need for higher accuracy and performance.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As above, in addition to the company's condensed consolidated financial statements, which are presented according to GAAP, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information that excludes stock-based compensation expenses, net of tax, recorded under Accounting Standard Codification 718-10 and other non-GAAP financial adjustments. The company uses these non-GAAP measures in its own financial and operational decision-making processes. Further, the company believes that these non-GAAP measures offer an important analytical tool to help investors understand the company's core operating results and trends, and to facilitate comparability with the operating results of other companies that provide similar non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures have certain limitations as analytical tools and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial information. For example, stock-based compensation is an important component of the company's compensation mix, and will continue to result in significant expenses in the company's GAAP results for the foreseeable future, but is not reflected in the non-GAAP measures. Also, other companies, including companies in InvenSense's industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
