Non-GAAP Results of Operations
 
Intersil’s non-GAAP operating income, net income and earnings per share exclude the effects of equity-based compensation, intangible amortization, acquisition charges, certain tax adjustments and one-time costs.
 
Non-GAAP operating income during the fourth quarter of 2011 was $24.6 million, or 14.8% of revenue. Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $19.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share.

“Orders gradually improved during the fourth quarter, increasing our confidence that a recovery will begin in the near future,” said Dave Bell, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As in previous cycles, inventory and production capacity are well positioned to support our customers once the recovery begins,” said Bell.
 
At the end of the fourth quarter, Intersil’s cash and short-term investments totaled $410.2 million. Free cash flow was $28.9 million during the fourth quarter and $128.6 million for fiscal 2011. Long term debt was reduced by $78.2 million to $200.0 million during the quarter.

“2011 was a successful year for Intersil as our strategic investments began to produce results. During the year, we increased our leadership in automotive video solutions and we regained market share in computing power management. Our optical sensors continue to lead the market in performance and value, while opportunities for our digital power solutions grew exponentially during the year. Although the industry-wide downturn caused our annual revenue to decline, we managed to keep operating expenses flat to the prior year and we increased free cash flow,” said Bell.

About Non-GAAP Financial Results
The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the reconciliations of such measures in the tables on page eight at the end of this release.  Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Intersil’s performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures that may not be indicative of Intersil’s recurring core business operating results. During the quarter ended July 1, 2011, we revised current quarter and historical presentation of non-GAAP financial information to exclude equity-based compensation in addition to previously excluded intangible amortization, acquisition charges, certain tax adjustments and one-time costs.  Management feels this change aligns our non-GAAP presentation with that of our closest peers and increases comparability of our results with published earnings estimates widely available on the Internet.
