(NASDAQ:MXIM) reported net revenue of $620 million for its second quarter of fiscal 2014 ended December 28, 2013, a 6% increase from the $585 million revenue recorded in the prior quarter.

Tunc Doluca, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We achieved good revenue performance in a soft quarter for our industry." Mr. Doluca continued, "We are pleased with our diversification efforts, with strength in both communication and industrial businesses, the addition of Volterra and broadening of our mobility business."

Fiscal Year 2014 Second Quarter Results
Based on Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), diluted earnings per share in the December quarter was $0.17. The results were negatively affected by the following pre-tax charges:


    --  $40 million for Volterra acquisition-related items
    --  $13 million for items related to prior acquisitions
    --  $5 million for impairment of long-lived assets
    --  $18 million for warranty expense

GAAP earnings per share, excluding special items was $0.36, after a $0.05 reduction due to the warranty expense. In addition, the warranty expense caused our GAAP gross margin, excluding special items to be 2.9 percentage points lower for the quarter. An analysis of GAAP versus GAAP excluding special items is provided in the last table of this press release. Warranty expense is not considered a special item and is not included in the analysis.

Cash Flow Items
At the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2014, total cash, cash equivalents and short term investments was $1.15 billion, an increase of $115 million from the prior quarter. Notable items included:


    --  Cash flow from operations: $234 million
    --  Net capital expenditures: $46 million
    --  Dividends: $73 million ($0.26 per share)
    --  Stock repurchases: $59 million
    --  Volterra acquisition: $454 million
    --  Proceeds from debt issuance: $494 million

Business Outlook
The Company's 90-day backlog at the beginning of the third fiscal quarter of 2014 was $366 million. Based on the beginning backlog and expected turns, results for the March 2014 quarter are expected to be as follows:


    --  Revenue: $590 million to $620 million
    --  Gross Margin: 56% to 58% GAAP (60% to 62% excluding special items)
    --  EPS: $0.28 to $0.32 GAAP ($0.37 to $0.41 excluding special items)

Maxim Integrated's business outlook does not include the potential impact of any restructuring activity or mergers, acquisitions, or other business combinations that may be completed during the quarter.

Dividend
A cash dividend of $0.26 per share will be paid on March 6, 2014, to stockholders of record on February 20, 2014.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared under GAAP, Maxim Integrated uses non-GAAP measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP results to exclude special items related to intangible asset amortization; acquisition-related inventory write-up; impairment of long-lived assets; severance and restructuring; acquisition-related costs; contingent consideration adjustments relating to certain acquisitions; certain payroll taxes; and the tax provision impacts due to implementation of international restructuring. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate Maxim Integrated's current performance. Many analysts covering Maxim Integrated use the non-GAAP measures as well. Given management's use of these non-GAAP measures, Maxim Integrated believes these measures are important to investors in understanding Maxim Integrated's current and future operating results as seen through the eyes of management. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in enabling them to better assess changes in Maxim Integrated's core business across different time periods. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative to GAAP financial data and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures, even if they have similar names. The non-GAAP measures displayed in the table above include the following:

GAAP gross profit excluding special items
The use of GAAP gross profit excluding special items allows management to evaluate the gross margin of the Company's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items including intangible asset amortization and acquisition-related inventory write-up. In addition, it is an important component of management's internal performance measurement and reward process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents GAAP gross profit excluding special items to enable investors and analysts to evaluate our revenue generation performance relative to the direct costs of revenue of Maxim Integrated's core businesses.

GAAP operating expenses excluding special items
The use of GAAP operating expenses excluding special items allows management to evaluate the operating expenses of the Company's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items including intangible asset amortization; impairment of long-lived assets; severance and restructuring; acquisition-related costs; contingent consideration adjustments relating to certain acquisitions; and certain payroll taxes. In addition, it is an important component of management's internal performance measurement and reward process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents GAAP operating expenses excluding special items to enable investors and analysts to evaluate our core business and its direct operating expenses.

GAAP net income and GAAP net income per share excluding special items
The use of GAAP net income and GAAP net income per share excluding special items allow management to evaluate the operating results of Maxim Integrated's core businesses and trends across different reporting periods on a consistent basis, independent of special items including intangible asset amortization; acquisition-related inventory write-up; impairment of long-lived assets; severance and restructuring; acquisition-related costs; contingent consideration adjustments relating to certain acquisitions; certain payroll taxes; and the tax provision impacts due to implementation of international restructuring. In addition, they are important components of management's internal performance measurement and reward process as it is used to assess the current and historical financial results of the business, for strategic decision making, preparing budgets and forecasting future results. Management presents GAAP net income and GAAP net income per share excluding special items to enable investors and analysts to understand the results of operations of Maxim Integrated's core businesses and to compare our results of operations on a more consistent basis against that of other companies in our industry.
