"I am very pleased that our revenue came in at the high end of our guidance range and that the recent product issue with an OEM customer has been fully resolved. This is a clear demonstration of our execution and customer service," said Dr. Mike Chang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
"Looking ahead, I am encouraged by the ramp in design wins in our targeted product areas. At the core of this success was our technology engine. For the calendar year 2012, our technology engine has enabled us to triple, over prior years, the rate of technology platform releases from which we are developing a stream of best in class products."
"As indicated in our guidance for the September 2013 quarter, the renewed strength in our technology, new products, and customer traction are indeed cementing our turn-around. I am looking forward to significant growth in revenue and profits in the coming years."
The results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 were as follows:
- Revenue was $337.4 million, a decrease of 1.4% from $342.3 million for the prior year.
- GAAP gross margin was 19.1%, compared to 24.3% for the prior year. Non-GAAP gross margin was 21.6%, compared to 24.5% for the prior year.
- GAAP operating loss was $1.3 million, compared to operating income of $16.7 million for the prior year. Non-GAAP operating income was $13.8 million, compared to $22.7 million for the prior year.
- GAAP net loss was $5.6 million, compared to net income of $12.9 million for the prior year. Non-GAAP net income was $9.5 million, compared to $18.9 million for the prior year.
- GAAP diluted loss per share was $0.22 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.50 for the prior year. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.37 compared to $0.74 for the prior year.

Non-GAAP operating income, net income and diluted EPS exclude share-based compensation expenses, non-recurring inventory valuation charge, equipment write down, acquisition related costs and U.S. GAAP conversion costs. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the U.S. GAAP amounts are set forth in the attached schedules.

Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections of future performance based on management's judgment, beliefs, current trends, and anticipated product performance. These forward looking statements include, without limitation, projected amount of revenues, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, tax expenses, net income, share-based compensation expenses, expectation with respect to our ability and strategy to develop new products, grow our revenue and profitability and recover loss of market shares, our expectation with respect to releasing new technology platforms and obtaining design wins and other information under the section entitled "Fiscal Q1, 2014 Business Outlook". Forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the decline of the PC industry and our ability to respond to such decline, our ability to introduce or develop new and enhanced products that achieve market acceptance; the actual product performance in volume production, the quality and reliability of our product, our ability to achieve design wins, the general business and economic conditions, the state of semiconductor industry and seasonality of our markets, and other risks as described in our SEC filings, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 to be filed by AOS. Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All information provided in this press release is as of today's date, unless otherwise stated, and AOS undertakes no duty to update such information, except as required under applicable law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. GAAP, we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross margin, operating income, net income and diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). These supplemental measures exclude share-based compensation expenses, non-recurring inventory write-down and impairment of long-lived assets that are non-cash charges as well as costs incurred for our conversion from IFRS to U.S. GAAP and acquisition. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures can provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses that are not indicative of our core operating results. In addition, our management uses non-GAAP measures to compare our performance relative to forecasts and to benchmark our performance externally against competitors. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in that the non-GAAP financial measures we use may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the term used in this press release, non-GAAP net income, does not have a standardized meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to other companies. We seek to compensate for this limitation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures in the tables attached to this press release. Investors are encouraged to review the related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.
