GAAP net loss attributable to SemiLEDs stockholders for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $512 thousand, compared to a loss of $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, or a net loss of $0.11 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.25 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

GAAP gross margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was 27%, compared with gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 of 21%.

We are unable to forecast revenue for the second quarter ending February 28, 2023 at this time given the uncertain impact of COVID-19 on the economy and the Company.
