AOS Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Mike Chang commented, “Our fiscal second quarter marked an impressive finish to calendar year 2020, as solid shipments across most of our product categories drove strong financial performance in the quarter. We grew revenue by 35% year-over-year, achieved higher utilization and operational efficiency at our manufacturing facilities, and continued to be disciplined with our spending. All of this led to records in non-GAAP gross margin of 31.4% and non-GAAP EPS of $0.65.”

Dr. Chang continued, “Our mission is to become a leading designer, developer, and global supplier of a broad portfolio of power semiconductors, and I am proud of what our team has accomplished and the groundwork we are laying for long-term and sustainable success. Obviously, we faced tremendous challenges in calendar year 2020, including the COVID-19 pandemic, trade conflicts, and political and social unrest in different parts of the world. Despite these challenges, we made significant progress toward our calendar year 2021 target of $600 million in annual revenue. We did this by focusing on disciplined execution and developing a healthy pipeline of new products, new design wins, and new customers.”

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 for our historical performance, including non-GAAP gross profit, gross margin, operating income (loss), net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest, net income (loss), diluted earnings per share ("EPS") and EBITDAS. These supplemental measures exclude, among other items, share-based compensation expenses, production ramp up costs related to the JV Company, legal and profession fees related to government investigation, as well as amortization of purchased intangible. We also disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures in our guidance for the next quarter, including non-GAAP gross margin, operating expenses and loss attributable to noncontrolling interest. We believe that these historical and forecast non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items and expenses that are not indicative of our core operating results or do not reflect our normal business operations. 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 such non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the terms used in this press release, such as non-GAAP net income (loss) or non-GAAP operating expenses, do 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. In addition, we included amount of income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments in the non-GAAP net income of reconciliation table for all periods presented as the management believes that such non-GAAP presentation provides useful information to investors, even though the amounts are not significant. We seek to compensate for the limitation of our non-GAAP presentation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures both in the text in this press release and in the tables attached hereto. 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.
