Cypress Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2017 Results

+ Cypress expanded its automotive infotainment solution portfolio with the introduction of two new products. The Company announced production availability of the industry’s first Real Simultaneous Dual Band (RSDB) automotive-grade Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® combo solution, which enables multiple users to connect and stream unique content to their devices simultaneously. In parallel, Cypress introduced a new automotive capacitive touchscreen controller family that delivers the market’s most advanced feature set for next-generation infotainment systems, including the capability to detect a finger up to 35 mm above the screen and provide accurate measurement of the pressure applied by multiple fingers.

+ At the recent Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Cypress showed products based on its PSoC® 6 microcontroller (MCU), the industry's lowest power, most flexible dual-core MCU with built-in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) wireless connectivity. PSoC 6 is targeted for a variety of smart home, wearables, smart speakers, audio and other IoT applications.

+ Cypress’ single-chip wireless MCU and combo solutions for the IoT are the world’s first to deliver certified Bluetooth mesh connectivity to a consumer product—SYLVANIA SMART+ Bluetooth lighting products from LEDVANCE. Cypress announced three of its wireless combo chips and the latest version of its WICED® software development kit support state-of-the-art Bluetooth connectivity with mesh networking capability. Cypress’ solutions enable a low-cost, low-power mesh network of devices that can communicate with each other—and with smartphones, tablets and voice-controlled home assistants—via simple, secure and ubiquitous Bluetooth connectivity.

+ Cypress paid a cash dividend of $38.7 million, or $0.11 per share, to holders of record of the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on December 28, 2017. The dividend was equivalent to a 2.9% annualized yield as of December 28, 2017. This dividend was paid on January 18, 2018.
