"We are extremely pleased with our performance this quarter and see even greater opportunities in the fourth quarter," stated Dr. Sehat Sutardja, Marvell's President and CEO. "Marvell achieved record revenues, reached a $3 billion annual run rate and our operating margins and earnings per share on a pro forma basis have exceeded our expectations. The increasing sales trend is a result of our investments in a broad range of technologies and from our ability to efficiently integrate these technologies into superior products across many markets."
Today, the Company also announced a plan to reduce operating expenses and help meet financial targets with a worldwide reduction in force of approximately 400 employees, or approximately 7% of the Company's total workforce. The Company expects to incur a restructuring charge in connection with the plan of up to $8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 related to severance and other expenses. The workforce reduction will affect all functions of the Company's global workforce, and in particular positions based in the United States and Israel, and to a lesser degree, other international locations. The plan is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008.
"It is difficult to announce changes to our workforce, but we have made this decision with the utmost care and respect for the hardworking and talented individuals involved," continued Dr. Sutardja. "Marvell is making progress to reduce costs and streamline operations, and we view this as a necessary additional step towards achieving our long-term financial model."

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP net income consists of net income excluding stock-based compensation expense as well as charges related to acquisitions and other charges and gains that are driven primarily by discrete events that management does not consider to be directly related to the company's core operating performance. Non-GAAP net income per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by adjusted GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). For purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income per share, the calculation of GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted) is adjusted to exclude the benefits of compensation costs attributable to future services and not yet recognized in the financial statements that are treated as proceeds assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method and also includes the antidilutive effects of warrants, common stock options and restricted stock.
Marvell believes that the presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the company's financial condition and results of operations. For further information regarding why Marvell believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors, the specific manner in which management uses these measures, and some of the limitations associated with the use of these measures, please refer to the company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed today with the SEC. The Form 8-K is available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov as well as on the Marvell website in the Investors Relations section at http://www.marvell.com.
