"Our performance in the first quarter demonstrates the positive results of our multi-year growth strategy and our ability to outgrow the storage and networking markets we serve. The significant revenue growth was driven by better-than-expected growth in our HDD business, strength in our new SandForce flash business and contribution from various new product cycles," said Abhi Talwalkar, LSI president and CEO. "Going forward, LSI is firmly established as a central player in some of the most critical growth trends in computing, including cloud, Big Data, mobile networking and flash, with products that are bringing exciting new levels of speed and productivity to our customers."
First quarter 2012 revenues from continuing operations were $622 million, above the high end of updated guidance, compared to $473 million generated from continuing operations in the first quarter of 2011, and compared to $523 million generated from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2011.
First quarter 2012 GAAP** income from continuing operations was $75 million or 13 cents per diluted share, compared to first quarter 2011 GAAP income from continuing operations of $19 million or 3 cents per diluted share. Fourth quarter 2011 GAAP income from continuing operations was $11 million or 2 cents per diluted share. First quarter 2012 GAAP income from continuing operations included a net charge of $42 million from special items, consisting primarily of approximately $31 million of stock-based compensation expense, $30 million of amortization of acquisition-related items, $15 million of net restructuring and other items, $14 million of purchase accounting effect on inventory, a $43 million favorable income tax effect and a $6 million gain on remeasurement of a pre-acquisition equity interest to fair value.
First quarter 2012 non-GAAP*** income from continuing operations was $117 million or 20 cents per diluted share, compared to first quarter 2011 non-GAAP income from continuing operations of $65 million or 10 cents per diluted share.
