Consumer electronics and computing manufacturers use Synaptics'solutions to enrich the interaction between humans and intelligent devicesthrough improved usability, functionality, and industrial design The Companyis headquartered in Santa Clara, California. Net income excluding share-based compensation and unusual or non-recurring items is not a measurement ofthe Company's financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered asan alternative to GAAP net income. The Company presents net income excludingshare-based compensation and unusual or non-recurring items because itconsiders it an important supplemental measure of its performance. The Companybelieves this measure facilitates operating performance comparisons fromperiod to period by eliminating potential differences in net income caused bythe existence and timing of non-cash compensation charges and unusual or non-recurring items. Net income excluding share-based compensation and unusual ornon-recurring items has limitations as an analytical tool and should not beconsidered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company's GAAP net income.The principal limitations of this measure are that it does not reflect theCompany's actual expenses and may thus have the effect of inflating its netincome and net income per share.Forward-Looking StatementsThis press release contains "forward-looking" statements about Synaptics,as that term is defined under the federal securities laws.
