DSP Group, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2016 Results

New Product Revenues Increase 43% Year-over-Year to Record of $12.8 Million

Record HDClear Revenues of $3.9 Million

LOS ALTOS, Calif., April 27, 2016 - DSP Group^®, Inc. (NASDAQ: DSPG), a leading global provider of wireless chipset solutions for converged communications, announced today its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

First Quarter Financial Review:

Management Comments:

Commenting on the results, Ofer Elyakim, CEO of DSP Group, stated, “Our first quarter performance reflects two diverging developments in our business. On the positive side, we achieved record revenues from new product initiatives of $12.8 million, an increase of 43% year-over-year, propelled by a major accomplishment of meaningful revenues from HDClear. However, this progress was more than offset by softer demand for cordless products, where revenues declined 49% year-over-year. This decline was expected, but was in excess of the secular decline trend of 10%-15%.The difference is primarily attributable to an inventory correction cycle, which should be exhausted in the second quarter.”

Mr. Elyakim added, “We expect momentum in our new products to continue during the second quarter and beyond supported by further market penetration for HDClear, share gains in VoIP and significant design wins with major global telecom providers for IoT and home gateways. The combination of new product successes and our anticipation for gradual improvement in the cordless phone market, starting in the second quarter, has DSP Group well-positioned to achieve solid sequential revenue growth. We believe that continued growth of our new products will be the key to driving overall growth and enhancing profitability going forward.”

Presentation on Non-GAAP Net Income Calculation

The Company believes that the non-GAAP presentation of net income and diluted earnings per share presented in this press release is useful to investors in comparing results for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 to the same period in 2015 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 compensation are reflected in 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 regarding exhaustion of the cordless inventory correction cycle in the second quarter of 2016, secular decline in cordless being 10% to 15%, momentum in our new products to continue during the second quarter and beyond due to further penetration for HDClear, share gains in VoIP and significant design wins for IoT and HGW products, improvement in the cordless phone market starting in the second quarter of 2016, the company being well positioned for solid sequential revenue growth, and belief that continued growth of our new products will be the key to driving overall growth and enhancing profitability going forward. The results from these statements may not actually arise as a result of various factors, including the market penetration of new products; unexpected delays in the commercial launch of new products, including in the mobile and office segments; slower than expected change in the nature of residential communications domain; DSP Group's ability to manage costs; DSP Group’s ability to develop and produce new products at competitive costs and in a timely manner and the ability 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 2015, as well as other reports DSP Group has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and which are available on DSP Group’s website (www.dspg.com) under Investor Relations.
