SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 21, 2014 -- PLX Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: PLXT), the global leader in PCI Express® (PCIe®) silicon and software connectivity solutions enabling emerging data center architectures, today announced second quarter revenues of $28.5 million and GAAP net loss of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per share (diluted).
 
On June 23, 2014, PLX® entered into a definitive agreement with Avago Technologies Limited (NASDAQ: AVGO) under which Avago will acquire PLX in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $309 million, or $293 million net of cash and debt acquired.  Under the terms of the agreement, which was approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies, a subsidiary of Avago commenced a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of PLX common stock for $6.50 per share in cash.  It is expected that the transaction will close in the fourth quarter of Avago’s fiscal year ending November 3, 2014.  PLX will not issue financial guidance for the upcoming quarter or conduct a second quarter results conference call.

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 share-based compensation, including ESOP expenses, royalty accruals associated with the Internet Machines litigation, acquisition and restructuring costs, 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.
 
Safe Harbor Statement:
This press release includes statements that qualify as forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These include statements about the company’s expectation and timing of the closing of the transaction by which Avago will acquire PLX.  Such statements involve risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the statements.  Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: the risk that the PLX/Avago transaction will not close because of a failure to satisfy one or more of the closing conditions (including regulatory approvals); litigation relating to the merger; unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the merger; and adverse legislative, regulatory and economic developments.   Please refer to the documents filed by the company with the SEC from time to time, including, but not limited to, the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and PLX’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which identifies important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.  All forward-looking statements are made as of today, and the company assumes no obligation to update such statements.
