We finished fiscal 2015 on a very strong note, delivering record levels of revenue and profitability in our recently completed fourth quarter. The LSI acquisition and the synergies we have been able to realize through its integration, as well as strong year on year growth in wireless revenues were significant contributors to our 2015 results said Hock Tan, President and CEO of Avago Technologies Limited. We are excited by the anticipated opportunities to further increase our earnings potential in fiscal 2016 following completion of our pending Broadcom acquisition.

    GAAP   Reconciling Items   Non-GAAP
Net Revenue   $1,768M +/- $25M   $12M   $1,780 +/- $25M

Projected reconciling items: 

  • Non-GAAP Net Revenue includes $12 million of LSI intellectual property licensing revenue not included in GAAP revenue, as a result of the effects of purchase accounting for the LSI acquisition;           
  • Non-GAAP Gross Margin includes the effects of $12 million of LSI intellectual property licensing revenue, and excludes the effects of $130 million of amortization of intangible assets, $7 million of share-based compensation expense and $1 million of acquisition-related costs;
  • Non-GAAP Operating Expenses exclude $53 million of amortization of intangible assets, $58 million of share-based compensation, $45 million of acquisition-related costs and $2 million of restructuring charges;
  • Non-GAAP Interest and Other excludes $47 million of ticking fees related to debt commitments for the pending Broadcom acquisition; and
  • $10 million provision at the Taxes line represents the tax effects of the reconciling items noted above.


Capital expenditures for the first fiscal quarter are expected to be approximately $140 million, which include the purchase of a fabrication facility in Eugene, Oregon for approximately $21 million. For the first fiscal quarter, depreciation is expected to be $61 million and amortization is expected to be $183 million.

The guidance provided above is only an estimate of what the Company believes is realizable as of the date of this release. The guidance also excludes any impact from any mergers, acquisitions and divestiture activity that may occur during the quarter. Actual results will vary from the guidance and the variations may be material. The Company undertakes no intent or obligation to publicly update or revise any of these projections, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to GAAP reporting, Avago provides investors with net revenue, net income, operating income, gross margin, operating expenses and other data, on a non-GAAP basis. This non-GAAP information includes the effect of purchase accounting on revenues, and excludes amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, restructuring and asset impairment charges, acquisition-related costs, including integration costs, purchase accounting effect on inventory, write-off of debt issuance costs, gain on extinguishment of debt, income (loss) from and gain (loss) on discontinued operations and income tax effects of non-GAAP reconciling adjustments. Management does not believe that these items are reflective of the Companys underlying performance. The presentation of these and other similar items in Avagos non-GAAP financial results should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual. Avago believes this non-GAAP financial information provides additional insight into the Companys on-going performance and has therefore chosen to provide this information to investors for a more consistent basis of comparison and to help them evaluate the results of the Companys on-going operations and enable more meaningful period to period comparisons. These non-GAAP measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial data is included in the supplemental financial data attached to this press release.
