Synaptics Reports Third Quarter Results
Santa Clara, CA – April 20, 2006 – Synaptics (Nasdaq: SYNA), a leader in interface solutions for mobile computing, communications, and entertainment devices, today reported financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006. The Company’s GAAP results reflect the adoption of SFAS 123(R) regarding the expensing of non-cash share-based compensation.
Net revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 was $40.4 million, compared with $56.7 million of net revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 was $1.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with $11.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2005.
Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2006, which excludes non-cash share-based compensation net of tax, was $4.1 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $11.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2005.
“Revenue for the third quarter was below our expectations primarily due to weaker than expected demand in the digital music player market, which has been broadly reported within the industry. Our performance in the notebook sector was within our anticipated range, but at the lower end of our expectations. Despite this near-term shortfall, we believe that our market leadership in notebooks and ongoing activity within the PC industry positions us well moving forward. At the same time, we continue to capitalize on growing opportunities to leverage our technology within emerging digital lifestyle applications,” stated Francis Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer of Synaptics.
Russ Knittel, Synaptics’ Chief Financial Officer, added, “Based on current indicators and our backlog entering the fourth fiscal quarter, we anticipate top-line growth of up to 10% sequentially. This outlook is predicated on expected seasonality and strength within our core PC market. As we look out into the September quarter, we anticipate continued strong demand for our PC solutions, where we see increasing interest for our multi-media oriented products offering dual functionality in notebook computers, and anticipate that our revenue may grow 10% to 20% from June quarter guidance. Our visibility in the portable digital entertainment market remains very limited, but any meaningful increased demand would represent upside to our current outlook.”
Earnings Call Information
The Synaptics third quarter teleconference and webcast is scheduled to begin at 2:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on Thursday, April 20, 2006, during which the Company will provide forward-looking information. To participate on the live call, analysts and investors should dial 800-240-2430 at least ten minutes prior to the call. Synaptics will also offer a live and archived webcast of the conference call, accessible from the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s Web site at http://www.synaptics.com/.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Synaptics discloses non-GAAP financial measures of net income and net income per share and believes that this non-GAAP information provides historical comparability of its core operating results over multiple reporting periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to net income and net income per share presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Further, these non-GAAP financial measures are unlikely to be comparable to non-GAAP information provided by other companies. In accordance with SEC regulations, reconciliation of the Synaptics U.S. GAAP information to the non-GAAP information is provided in the tables attached. We will also make available on the investor relations page of our web site at www.synaptics.com this press release, which includes a reconciliation of the U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures and a replay of the webcast.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking” statements about Synaptics, as that term is defined under the federal securities laws. Synaptics intends such forward-looking statements to be subject to the safe harbor created by those laws. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Synaptics’ anticipated revenue for the third and forth quarters of fiscal 2006, its beliefs regarding the markets it serves, its assessment of market demands and trends in target markets, its view of its operating fundamentals, its assessment of consumer demands for various applications, its assessment of market conditions, and its competitive position in the notebook computer and portable audio and video device markets. Synaptics cautions that these statements are qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected by the forward-looking statements contained herein. Such factors include, but are not limited to, (a) demand for Synaptics’ products in the PC and portable digital entertainment markets, (b) market demand for OEMs’ products using Synaptics’ solutions, (c) the failure of Synaptics’ products and OEMs’ products to deliver commercially acceptable performance, (d) changing market demand trends in the markets it serves, and consumer demand, and (e) other risks as identified from time to time in Synaptics’ SEC reports, including Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K as well as the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. All forward-looking statements are based on information available to Synaptics on the date hereof, and Synaptics assumes no obligation to update such statements.
