Arteris Announces Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 and Estimated First Quarter and Full Year 2023 Guidance

CAMPBELL, Calif., Feb. 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arteris, Inc. (Arteris or Arteris IP), a leading provider of network-on-chip (NoC) interconnect and other intellectual property (IP) technology that manages the on-chip communications in system-on-chip (SoC) semiconductor devices, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, and provided estimated first quarter and full year 2023 guidance.

“We’re excited to report a strong finish to 2022, with Annual Contract Value plus Trailing Twelve Month Royalties of $52.4 million, an increase of 22% year-over-year when adjusted for the loss of HiSilicon and DJI, which can be attributed to tighter BIS restrictions after 2019,” said K. Charles Janac, President and CEO of Arteris IP. “With the introduction of our new FlexNoC 5 innovation and the acquisition of Semifore in the fourth quarter, we are working to enable our customers to accelerate their SoC design and improve the overall SoC design economics while shortening product schedules and the risks of costly redesigns. Despite short-term macro-economic uncertainties, we believe Arteris is well positioned for growth as our customers continue to innovate in areas such as automotive, consumer electronics, and machine learning across all applications, driving the need for increased use of commercial System IP.”
