Non-GAAP operating expenses were $16.1 million, compared to $16.8 million for the prior quarter and $14.0 million for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP operating expenses excluded share-based compensation expense of $1.1 million, $1.8 million and $1.4 million for this quarter, the prior quarter and the same quarter in the prior fiscal year, respectively. In addition, non-GAAP operating expenses excluded U.S. GAAP conversion costs of $0.4 million and $0.6 million for this quarter and the prior quarter, respectively.
-
Operating income was $2.9 million, compared to $10.2 million for the prior quarter and $8.7 million for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year.

Non-GAAP operating income was $4.6 million, compared to $12.8 million for the prior quarter and $10.2 million for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year.

In addition, non-GAAP operating income excluded U.S. GAAP conversion costs of $0.4 million and $0.6 million for this quarter and the prior quarter, respectively.
-
Net income was $2.1 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to $9.7 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the prior quarter and $8.8 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year.
-
Non-GAAP net income, excluding share-based compensation expense and U.S. GAAP conversion costs, was $3.8 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to $12.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the prior quarter and $10.3 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year.
Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the U.S. GAAP amounts are set forth in the attached schedules.
"In response to the macroeconomic environment, we responded decisively during the September quarter to reduce our operating expenses and to lower our inventory level at a faster rate than our original guidance. In addition, our new Generation 5 products are gaining design wins, and we are currently ramping up production gradually at IDT's Oregon facility for these and other products," said Dr. Mike Chang, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of AOS. "In recent weeks, our bookings pattern has stabilized and shown gradual improvement. Despite the economic uncertainty, we continue to focus on long-term growth by investing in new products and technology development to further diversify and expand our serviceable available markets (SAM)."

The following statements are based upon management's current expectations. These

Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections of future performance based on management's judgment, beliefs, current trends, and anticipated product performance. These forward looking statements include, without limitation, projected amount of revenues, gross margin, and operating income, expectation with respect to the macroeconomic conditions, product design wins and our long-term strategy and revenue growth, and other information under the section entitled "Business Outlook". Forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to introduce or develop new and enhanced products that achieve market acceptance; the actual product
performance in volume production; the quality and reliability of our product, our ability to achieve design wins, the general business and economic conditions, our ability to identify and consummate strategic transactions; the state of semiconductor industry and seasonality of our markets, and other risks as described in our SEC filings. Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All information provided in this press release is as of today's date, unless otherwise stated, and AOS
undertakes no duty to update such information, except as required under applicable law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with the U.S. GAAP, we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating expenses, operating income, projected operating income, net income and earnings per share. These supplemental measures exclude share-based compensation expenses that are non-cash charges and costs incurred for our U.S. GAAP conversion. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures can provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses that are not indicative of our core operating results. 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 the non-GAAP
financial measures we use may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the term used in this press release, non-GAAP net income, does 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. We seek to compensate for this limitation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures in the tables attached to this press release. 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.
