“Fiscal 2012 was a year of continued year-over-year financial improvement for GigOptix driven by 60 percent revenue growth in our high-speed optical telecom and datacom components business, which is the Company’s primary growth engine,” said Dr. Avi Katz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GigOptix, Inc. “We also continued our industry leading investment, about 32 percent of our revenue, in the development of innovative and differentiating products, which will be a key component in our future growth.

“For fiscal 2013, we are cautiously optimistic of a rebound in spending of the Carriers and OEMs in the telecom and datacom markets. While we wait for the tangible signs of this improvement, mainly in the telecom markets, we have taken appropriate actions to adjust our expenses to the current revenue rate, by lowering our cost structure while continuing to innovate and deliver new products to our serviceable and new markets. This includes investments in development of next generations for both telecom and datacom applications, and as of this quarter, introduction of products that target the consumer electronics markets, mainly for high-speed and high-resolution motion and gesture tracking products,” said Dr. Avi Katz. “We believe these actions will further strengthen our leading position within the telecom and datacom markets allowing us to take advantage of our core skills and innovation in generating businesses in the high volume consumer electronics market.”

Litigation against M/A-Com Technology Solutions, Inc. (Optomai, Inc.)

GigOptix continues to actively prosecute the lawsuit for misappropriation of confidential information and trade secrets against defendants M/A-COM Technology Solutions, Inc. (MACOM), MACOM’s subsidiary Optomai, Inc., and three former GigOptix employees. On January 30, 2013, GigOptix announced that in its lawsuit, the Superior Court of Santa Clara County, California held a trial setting conference on January 29, 2013. At the trial setting conference, the Superior Court scheduled the lawsuit for a two-week jury trial starting Monday, August 26, 2013.

Financial Outlook

“As we begin 2013, general market and economic conditions, particularly in the telecom and datacom markets, remain uncertain and forecasting our financial performance for this quarter remains difficult. The majority of the annual price reductions for the optical component part of our business fall in our first quarter, resulting in a typically softer quarter for our business,” said Curt Sacks, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of GigOptix. “With this continued lack of visibility our current expectation is that first quarter product revenue will be flat compared to the $7.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2012.”
