DSP Group, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2011 Earnings

SAN JOSE, Calif., October 27, 2011—DSP Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: DSPG), a leading global provider of wireless chipset solutions for converged communications at home, announced today its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.

Third Quarter Results:

Revenues for the third quarter of 2011 were $48,373,000, a decrease of 26% from revenues of $65,154,000 for the third quarter of 2010. Net loss for the third quarter of 2011 was $4,814,000, as compared to net income of $1,917,000 for the third quarter of 2010. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the third quarter of 2011 were a loss of $0.21 per share, as compared to a diluted EPS of $0.08 per share for the third quarter of 2010.

Non-GAAP Results:

Non-GAAP net loss and EPS for the third quarter of 2011 were $846,000 and a loss of $0.04 per share, respectively, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $6,501,000 and EPS of $0.27 per share for the third quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP net loss and diluted EPS for the third quarter of 2011 excluded the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets of $2,197,000 associated with the acquisition of NXP’s CIPT business; equity-based compensation expenses of $1,351,000 and restructuring expenses of $420,000. Non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS for the third quarter of 2010 excluded the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets of $2,494,000 associated with the acquisition of the Cordless and VoIP Terminals business of NXP B.V.; equity-based compensation expenses of $2,266,000; restructuring expenses of $394,000 and a tax benefit of $570,000 resulting from the reversal of income tax contingency reserve that was determined to be no longer needed due to the expiration of applicable limitation statutes.

Ofer Elyakim, CEO of DSP Group, stated: “Despite the present weakness in our core cordless telephony business, we continue to see solid market traction and revenue growth for our new products going forward. These new products present a material and new opportunity with new customers for DSP Group that we are starting to realize through many new design wins and expect these products to post solid revenues and accelerated growth through 2012. Moreover, we have successfully implemented the cost reduction program we announced back in July and our third quarter and fourth quarter non-GAAP operating expenses already reflect an annual operating expense run rate of $75 million.”

Mr. Elyakim also stated, “The weakness in bookings that began in the third quarter continues into the fourth quarter of 2011, resulting in softer than expected outlook for the fourth quarter. Based on our internal assessment and forecasts received from our customers, we now expect our fourth quarter revenues to be in the range of $34 to $38 million.”

“In the third quarter we accelerated our share buyback activity and repurchased approximately 500,000 shares for approximately $3.4 million, for an average price of $6.75 per share, bringing the total number of shares available for repurchase under the board authorization to 2.1 million shares. We believe that the repurchase of shares at or near current price levels is an attractive investment for the company and its shareholders.”

Presentation on non-GAAP Net Income Calculation

The Company believes that the non-GAAP presentation of net income and diluted EPS presented in this press release is useful to investors in comparing results for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 to the same period in 2010 because the exclusion of the above noted expenses may provide a more meaningful analysis of the Company’s core operating results. Further, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand how the expenses associated with equity-based compensations expenses are reflected on its statements of income.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that qualify as “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including Mr. Elyakim’s statements about the temporary nature of the softening market demand in cordless telephony products; the Company’s financial guidance for fourth quarter revenues; the Company’s expectations for solid and accelerated revenue growth for new products through 2012 and the Company’s expectations of an annual operating expense run rate of 75 million. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and DSP Group assumes no obligation to update this information. In addition, the events described in these forward-looking statements may not actually arise as a result of various factors, including the duration and extent of the slowdown in consumer demand for traditional cordless telephony products; the growth of the residential gateway market; our ability to lower operating expenses; our ability to secure additional design wins and the success of our new XpandR, IP telephony and CAT iq product introductions; unexpected delays in the commercial launch of new products; the impact of reductions in lead times and inventory levels by DSP Group customers and their customers; slower than expected change in the nature of residential communications domain; DSP Group’s inability to develop and produce new products at competitive costs and in a timely manner or failure of such products to achieve broad market acceptance; and general market demand for products that incorporate DSP Group’s technology in the market. These factors and other factors which may affect future operating results or DSP Group’s stock price are discussed under “RISK FACTORS” in the Form 10-K for fiscal 2010 as well as other reports DSP Group has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and which are available on DSP Group’s Web site (www.dspg.com) under Investor Relations.
