PLX Technology, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2013 Financial Results
Third Consecutive Profitable Quarter, Record Year-to-Date Profit, Record Design Wins
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21, 2013 -- PLX Technology, Inc. (PLX®) (NASDAQ: PLXT), the global leader in PCI Express® (PCIe®) silicon and software connectivity solutions enabling emerging data center architectures, today announced third quarter revenues of $25.7 million and net income of $2.0 million, or $0.04 per share (diluted).
“Our focus on key cost control measures has resulted in three consecutive profitable quarters and record profits year-to-date allowing us to build our cash position and pay down debt,” said David Raun, PLX president and CEO. “Record PCI Express design wins dominated by higher ASP Gen3 products signal a healthy pipeline. Market share gains in PCI Express, no significant design win losses over the past two quarters, and production of new higher lane count parts in Q4 highlights additional opportunities for the company.”

“Enterprise storage and networking markets continue to dominate design win activity, and our market-leading technology backed by strong customer relationships position us for continued design win success,” said Raun. “We also garnered significant industry interest in the quarter with the company’s first public demonstration of PLX’s ExpressFabric® technology housed in a data center rack at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF).
“Our overall design activity pipe which measures the potential annual revenue for each program is in the hundreds of millions of dollars and is greater than three times the size that it was four years ago when our main focus was Gen2. All five of our PCI Express end market segments produced greater design wins than last quarter, and we are confident about our growth potential for years to come.”
About ExpressFabric
PCIe is well-established as a standard that is already native on nearly all mainstream data center appliances. Facilitated by PLX’s next generation PCIe Gen3 fabric-enabling switch devices, ExpressFabric eliminates a large number of expensive “bridging” devices like adapter cards that translate PCIe to InfiniBand, Ethernet or Fibre Channel. This subsequently provides a high-performance, low-latency solution, while offering significantly lower cost and power, with a reduced bill of materials.
ExpressFabric technology is focused on small to medium (20-1000 nodes) high performance clusters that are cost and power sensitive, and the fabric seamlessly works with Ethernet and InfiniBand for larger scale out. PLX developed a market-seeding PCIe-based top-of-rack (ToR) switch box to demonstrate rack-level consolidation and convergence into a single interconnect technology. To help prime this market, PLX has been selling internally developed PCI Express-based server cards that appear to the software like Ethernet Network Interface Cards, and in Q3 we began shipping our PCI Express top of rack switch boxes to early customers.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement PLX’s financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, PLX has provided non-GAAP financial information, including non-GAAP income (loss), non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share (diluted), non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP operating expenses. These non-GAAP results exclude lawsuit verdict contingency accrual expense, share-based compensation, including ESOP expenses, acquisition, restructuring and impairment related charges, amortization of acquired intangibles and discontinued operations. A reconciliation of the adjustments to GAAP results is included in the tables below. Non-GAAP financial information is not meant as a substitute for GAAP results, but is included because management believes such information is useful to PLX investors for informational and comparative purposes. In addition, certain non-GAAP financial information is used internally by management to evaluate and manage the company. The non-GAAP financial information used by PLX may differ from that used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for, the results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
