Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On September 28, 2004, Cypress Semiconductor Corporation issued a press release revising its revenue and earnings outlook for the fiscal quarter ended September 26, 2004. The press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Cypress provides certain non-GAAP financial measures, or pro forma measures, as additional information relating to its operating results. These non-GAAP measures give an indication of Cypress’s baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside of the company’s core operating results. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for measuring past performance, and planning and forecasting future periods. Cypress’s management, therefore, believes that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share.
The calculation of the non-GAAP measures used in this Form 8-K have been adjusted to exclude the effects of amortization of intangibles and other acquisition-related, restructuring and special charges and credits, as applicable in the periods presented. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from pro forma measures used by other companies.
Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section. The information contained herein and in the accompanying Exhibit 99.1 shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission made by Cypress, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
