QuickLogic uses its website (www.quicklogic.com), its blog (https://www.quicklogic.com/blog/), and LinkedIn page (https://www.linkedin.com/company/13512/) as channels of distribution of information about its products, its planned financial and other announcements, its attendance at upcoming investor and industry conferences, and other matters. Such information may be deemed material information, and QuickLogic may use these channels to comply with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD. Therefore, investors should monitor the Company's website and its social media accounts, in addition to following the Company's press releases, SEC filings, public conference calls, and webcasts.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
QuickLogic reports financial information in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), but believes that non-GAAP financial measures are helpful in evaluating its operating results and comparing its performance to comparable companies. Accordingly, the Company excludes certain charges related to stock-based compensation, impairment charges, and restructuring costs, as well as significant non-recurring gains, in calculating non-GAAP (i) operating expenses, (ii) income (loss) from operations, (iii) net income (loss), (iv) net income (loss) per share, and (v) cost of revenue and gross margin percentage. The Company provides this non-GAAP information to enable investors to evaluate its operating results in a manner consistent with how the Company analyzes its operating results and to provide consistency and comparability with similar companies in the Company's industry.
Management uses the non-GAAP measures, which exclude gains, losses, and other charges that are considered by management to be outside of the Company's core operating results, internally to evaluate its operating performance against results in prior periods and its operating plans and forecasts. In addition, the non-GAAP measures are used to plan for the Company's future periods and serve as a basis for the allocation of the Company's resources, management of operations and the measurement of profit-dependent cash flows, and equity compensation paid to employees and executive officers.
Investors should note, however, that the non-GAAP financial measures used by QuickLogic may not be the same non-GAAP financial measures and may not be calculated in the same manner as that of other companies. QuickLogic does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures alone or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures is included in the financial statements portion of this press release. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures with their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's future profitability, revenue growth, and cash flows, expectations regarding its future business and statements regarding the timing, milestones, and payments related to its government contracts, statements regarding expected contracts and the expected magnitude of such contracts, and statements regarding expected adoption rates and/or orders by customers. Actual results may differ due to a variety of factors including: delays in the market acceptance of the Company's new products; the ability to convert design opportunities into customer revenue; the ability to replace revenue from end-of-life products; the level and timing of customer design activity; the market acceptance of the Company's customers' products; the risk that orders may not result in future revenue; ability to introduce and produce new products based on advanced wafer technology on a timely basis; ability to adequately market the low power, competitive pricing, and short time-to-market of the Company's new products; intense competition; ability to hire and retain qualified personnel; changes in product demand or supply; general economic conditions; political events, international trade disputes, natural disasters, and other business interruptions that could disrupt supply or delivery of, or demand for, the Company's products; and changes in tax rates and exposure to additional tax liabilities. These and other potential factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated or implied are described in more detail in the Company's public reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including the risks discussed in the "Risk Factors" section in the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as well as disclosed in the Company's prior press releases, which are available on the Company's Investor Relations website at http://ir.quicklogic.com/ and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov/. In addition, please note that the date of this press release is November 10, 2026, and any forward-looking statements contained herein are based on management's current expectations and assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable as of this date.
