Smartphone Sales Drive Record Revenue
Cirrus Logic, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRUS) today posted on its website at
investor.cirrus.com the quarterly Shareholder Letter that contains
the complete financial results for the third quarter fiscal year
2023, which ended December 24, 2022, as well as the company’s
current business outlook.
“Cirrus Logic delivered record revenue in the December quarter,
with sales driven above the high end of guidance by demand for
smartphones,” said John Forsyth, Cirrus Logic president and chief
executive officer. “During the quarter, customer engagement across
our product portfolio remained strong. We taped out our
next-generation 22-nanometer smart codec and we made excellent
progress on numerous other audio and high-performance mixed-signal
products. Going forward, we will continue to leverage our
intellectual property into other applications and markets as we
target opportunities for incremental content, including in the
areas of sensing, charging, and power. With a solid product roadmap
and a deep commitment to innovation, we believe Cirrus Logic is
well-positioned to drive further growth and product diversification
in the future.”

share of $2.40.
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information is
included in the tables accompanying this press release.
Business Outlook – Fourth Quarter FY23
- Revenue is expected to range between $340 million and $400
million;

Use of non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement Cirrus Logic's financial statements presented on a

share, operating income and profit, operating expenses, gross
margin and profit, tax expense, tax expense impact on earnings per
share, effective tax rate, free cash flow, and free cash flow

included in the tables below. Non-GAAP financial information is not
meant as a substitute for GAAP results but is included because

non-GAAP financial information is used internally by management to

Safe Harbor Statement
Except for historical information contained herein, the matters
set forth in this news release contain forward-looking statements
including our statements about our ability to leverage our
intellectual property into other applications and markets including
in the areas of sensing, charging, and power; our ability to drive
incremental content, growth, and product diversification in the
future; and our estimates for the fourth quarter fiscal year 2023
revenue, gross margin, combined research and development and
selling, general and administrative expense levels, stock
compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles and
acquisition-related costs. In some cases, forward-looking
statements are identified by words such as “expect,” “anticipate,”
“target,” “project,” “believe,” “goals,” “opportunity,”
“estimates,” “intend,” and variations of these types of words and
similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to our
plans, expectations, strategies, or other characterizations of
future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are based on our current
expectations, estimates, and assumptions and are subject to certain
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially, and readers should not place undue reliance on such
statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not
limited to, the following: the effects of the global COVID-19
outbreak and the measures taken to limit the spread of COVID-19,
including any disruptions to our business that could result from
measures to contain the outbreak that may be taken by governmental
authorities in the jurisdictions in which we and our supply chain
operate; the susceptibility of the markets we address to economic
downturns, including as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and the
actions taken to mitigate the spread of COVID-19; increased
industry-wide capacity constraints that may impact our ability to
meet current customer demand, which could cause an unanticipated
decline in our sales and damage our existing customer relationships
and our ability to establish new customer relationships; the
potential for increased prices due to capacity constraints in our
supply chain, which, if we are unable to increase our selling price
to our customers, could result in lower revenues and margins that
could adversely affect our financial results; recent significant
increases in inflation in the U.S and overseas; the level and
timing of orders and shipments during the fourth quarter of fiscal
year 2023, customer cancellations of orders, or the failure to
place orders consistent with forecasts, along with the risk factors
listed in our Form 10-K for the year ended March 26, 2022 and in
our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
which are available at www.sec.gov. The foregoing information
concerning our business outlook represents our outlook as of the
date of this news release, and we expressly disclaim any obligation
to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new developments or otherwise.
