It also excludes the income tax effect associated with the above-mentioned items. It also excludes, in the case of non-GAAP net income, gain from the sale of the external storage systems business.
"Our growth last year in a challenging macro environment and our guidance for the first quarter of 2012 demonstrate the results of our ongoing strategic focus on delivering semiconductors and software that accelerate storage and networking applications," said Abhi Talwalkar, LSI president and CEO. "We enter 2012 building on strong business momentum and are accelerating our revenue growth with share gains and new design wins at key customers and in critical markets such as mega datacenters, cloud computing, mobile networks and flash storage."
Fourth quarter 2011 revenues from continuing operations were $523 million, in line with guidance, compared to $471 million generated from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2010, and compared to $547 million generated from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2011.
