For Immediate Release

SIGMA DESIGNS, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER

2015 FINANCIAL RESULTS

MILPITAS, CA, June 11, 2014 — Sigma Designs^®, Inc. (NASDAQ: SIGM), a leader in intelligent media platforms, today reported financial results and business highlights for its first fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2015 ended May 3, 2014.

Financial Results

Net revenues for the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2015 was $36.9 million, down $1.6 million, or 4.2%, from $38.5 million reported in the previous quarter and down $15.7 million, or 29.8%, from $52.5 million reported for the same period last year.

GAAP net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $9.9 million, or $0.29 per share. This compares to GAAP net income of $1.3 million, or $0.04 per share, for the previous quarter and GAAP net loss of $4.5 million, or $0.13 per share, for the same period last year.

Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $5.0 million, or $0.14 per diluted share. This compares to non-GAAP net loss of $4.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the previous quarter and non-GAAP net income of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, during the same period last year.

The reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP net income (loss) for all referenced periods is provided in a table immediately following the GAAP financial tables below.

Management Comment

“We achieved first quarter guidance on revenues, gross margins and operating expenses, though our results indicate that we are in a transitional period. This transition includes the deployment of our new products to both new and existing customers while our legacy products continue to decline over time. We entered this quarter with the goal of positioning ourselves for future growth and furthering the design wins in our pipeline. We feel strongly that the new products we have launched over the past six months put us in a position to secure increasing customer deployments, grow our top-line in the quarters ahead, and that our first quarter revenue represents the lowest revenue level for the foreseeable future,” said Thinh Tran, President and CEO of Sigma Designs.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Sigma reports non-GAAP net income (loss), which excludes amortization of acquired intangibles, stock-based compensation, the mark-up on purchased inventory sold during the period, facility exit legal expenses, settlement expenses, net impairment of privately-held investments, restructuring charges, impairment of purchased IP, mask sets, design tools used in production and other assets and the gain on the sale of an R&D development project to a third party that Sigma recognized in accordance with GAAP. The tax amounts included in Sigma’s non-GAAP results approximate its operating cash tax expense, similar to the liability reported on Sigma’s tax returns. In the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation at the end of this press release, we have disclosed the impact of these income tax adjustments in our calculation of our non-GAAP financial results. Sigma believes that its non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. Sigma also believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information for investors to evaluate its operating results in the same manner as the research analysts that follow Sigma, all of whom present non-GAAP projections in their published reports. As such, the non-GAAP measures provided by Sigma facilitate a more direct comparison of its performance with the financial projections published by the analysts as well as its competitors, many of whom report financial results on a non-GAAP basis. The economic substance behind its decision to use such non-GAAP measures is that such measures approximate its controllable operating performance more closely than the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. For example, Sigma’s management has no control over certain variables that have a major influence in the determination of stock-based compensation such as the volatility of its stock price and changing interest rates. Sigma believes that all of these excluded expenses do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of its continuing operations for the period in which they are incurred, even though some of these excluded items may be incurred and reflected in Sigma’s GAAP financial results in the foreseeable future.

The material limitation associated with the use of the non-GAAP financial measures is that the non-GAAP measures do not reflect the full economic impact of Sigma’s activities. Sigma’s non-GAAP net income (loss) is not prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not an alternative to GAAP financial information, and may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial information disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on non-GAAP information.
