BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS:
4Q11 Business Highlights:
- Second TD-SCDMA premium smartphone win with Samsung launched in December 2011
- Doubled our TD-SCDMA shipments in 2H11 and achieved more than 50% market share of all 2011 TD-SCDMA shipments
- Introduced our Android smartphone platforms
Commenting on the results, Spreadtrum's Chairman and CEO, Dr. Leo Li said, "In 2011 we nearly doubled our revenue to US$674.3 million as a result of market share gains in both the 3G TD-SCDMA and 2G market segments. During 4Q11, we expanded our TD-SCDMA baseband design wins with global first tier handset brands and introduced our first generation 600MHz Android 2.2 smartphone platform. Our second generation 1GHz Android 2.3 smartphone platform, introduced in January, has been well received by China's major OEMs and we expect to see volume contribution in 2H12 in tandem with the seasonally stronger demand in this market segment. Our 3G shipments helped to offset softer 2G demand in China and in some overseas markets that occurred in 4Q11 as a result of macroeconomic factors. In 2012, we expect that our planned migration of 2.5G products to 40nm combined with partnerships with leading overseas local brands will enable us to continue to gain market share in this segment. We believe that the new 2.5G and smartphone products will serve as a platform for continuing growth enabling us to secure a leadership position in both market segments with the combination of advanced technology, turnkey business model and our local China advantage. Looking ahead to the first quarter, we are transitioning to our new 40nm 2.5G and smartphone products to prepare for second half growth and entering the seasonally low period for both 2G and 3G segments. With both these factors in mind, we expect revenue in 1Q12 to be in the range of US$158 million to US$163 million, an increase of 15% to 19% year over year and down 15% to 18% sequentially, with a gross margin of approximately 38%."
Further commenting on the 4Q11 financial results, Shannon Gao, Spreadtrum's CFO added, "Our operating expenses increased as we continued to invest in R&D to support portfolio expansion to smartphones, WCDMA and LTE products. The consolidation of MobilePeak in Q4 resulted in additional R&D expenses related to employee compensation including share-based compensation charges. Our inventory decreased to a healthy level entering the seasonally low period. Deferred cost declined from a peak realized during the third quarter high shipping season. Starting in Q4 and continuing in 1H12, because the consistent high quality of our products has helped to firmly establish customer confidence, we are stepping down the use of our customer acceptance program on new orders. We distributed a quarterly cash dividend of US $0.10 per ADS to shareholders on January 24, 2012, and repurchased approximately 3.7% of the shares that were outstanding at the start of 4Q11, with 3.2% purchased in January 2012. Looking ahead, in the first half as we continue to invest in WCDMA and LTE platforms and ahead of the volume ramp of our new 40nm 2.5G and smartphone products, we expect pressure on both operating margins and gross margins."

Gross Profit and Margin
Gross profit for the quarter was US$78.4 million, up 1.6% from US$77.2 million in 3Q11 and up 44.0% from US$54.4 million in 4Q10. Gross margin for the quarter was 40.8%, down from 41.8% in 3Q11 and 43.0% in 4Q10. Non-GAAP gross margin, adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, was 40.9%, down from 41.9% in 3Q11 and 43.1% in 4Q10. For the fiscal year 2011, gross profit increased 84.1% to US$280.6 million from US$152.5 million in 2010, with a gross margin of 41.6% in 2011 compared to 44.0% in 2010. Non-GAAP gross margin for the full year 2011 was 41.7%, compared to 44.1% in 2010.
Cost of revenue in 4Q11 totaled US$113.9 million, representing an increase of 5.8% from the previous quarter and up 57.9% from 4Q10 levels. Total cost of revenue for fiscal year 2011 was US$393.6 million, up 103.0% from US$193.9 million in 2010.
Operating Expense and Margin
The Company's operating margin for the quarter was 17.8%, compared to 21.4% in the previous quarter and 22.3% in 4Q10, due to a lower gross margin and higher operating expenses. Non-GAAP operating margin, adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense was 21.1% in 4Q11, compared to 23.7% in 3Q11 and 24.5% in 4Q10. Operating margin for fiscal year 2011 was 20.2%, compared to 20.0% in 2010.
Total operating expenses in 4Q11, including selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses and research and development (R&D) expenses, were US$44.1 million, representing an increase from US$37.6 million in 3Q11 and an increase from US$26.2 million in 4Q10. In 4Q11, Spreadtrum consolidated the income statements of MobilePeak and Telegent, which contributed to the sequential increase. Total operating expenses for fiscal year 2011 were US$144.3 million, up 73.1% from US$83.4 million in 2010.
R&D expenses increased 30.8% sequentially and 92.6% year-over-year to US$37.7 million in 4Q11, in support of the company's product portfolio expansion to smartphone platforms, WCMDA and LTE. The sequential and year-over-year increase in R&D expenses was primarily due to a decrease in recognized R&D subsidies relative to the previous period as well as an increase in employee compensation expenses including share-based compensation, engineering expenses relating to development of new products and depreciation and amortization expense associated with acquired IP resulting from the consolidation of MobilePeak and Telegent in 4Q11. The sequential R&D increase was partially offset by non-recurring bonuses related to the MobilePeak acquisition that were recorded in 3Q11 and did not recur in 4Q11. R&D expenses for 2011 totaled US$117.3 million, representing a 99.9% increase from US$58.7 million in 2010.
SG&A expenses decreased 27.1% sequentially to US$6.4 million and were flat compared to 4Q10. SG&A expenses were lower sequentially due to non-recurring consulting fees related to the MobilePeak acquisition that were recorded in 3Q11 and did not recur in 4Q11. SG&A expenses were US$27.0 million in the full year 2011, compared to US$20.2 million in 2010.
Non-Operating Income
In 4Q11, the Company recorded interest income of US$2.1 million, up from US$1.6 million in the previous quarter and up from US$1.3 million in 4Q10. The sequential and year-over-year increase was primarily due to investment of a higher balance of cash combined with an increase in deposit saving rate. Interest expense in 4Q11 was US$1.3 million, up from US$1.2 million in the previous quarter and compared to a gain of US$0.8 million in 4Q10. The year-over-year increase in interest expenses was due to an increase in short-term loans and a decrease in the reimbursement of the interest expense from Chinese government in 4Q10 which was in excess of interest expenses incurred in 4Q10. Other income (net) in 4Q11 was US$2.0 million, compared to US$5.2 million in 3Q11 and US$2.4 million in 4Q10. Other income (net) mainly represented net foreign exchange gains and losses. Non-operating income for the full year 2011 totaled US$13.9 million, compared to US$6.3 million in 2010.
Net Income
The Company's net income totaled US$35.2 million in 4Q11, compared to US$39.3 million in 3Q11 and US$30.0 million in 4Q10. The sequential decrease in net income was primarily due to increase in operating expenses and decrease in non-operating income (net). Net margin was 18.3%, down from 21.3% in 3Q11 and 23.7% in 4Q10. Basic and diluted income per ADS were US$0.75 and US$0.66, respectively, in 4Q11, compared to US$0.84 and US$0.75, respectively, in 3Q11, and US$0.62 and US$0.56, respectively, in 4Q10. Net income for the fiscal year 2011 totaled US$134.5 million, up from US$67.2 million in 2010. Net margin for the year was 19.9%, compared to 19.4% for the full year 2010. For the full year 2011, basic and diluted income per ADS was US$2.81 and US$2.48, respectively, compared to US$1.42 and US$1.28, respectively, per basic and diluted ADS in 2010.
Excluding share-based compensation expenses, the Company's non-GAAP net income for 4Q11 was US$41.5 million, down from a non-GAAP net income of US$43.5 million in 3Q11 and up from US$32.7 million in 4Q10. Diluted non-GAAP net income per ADS in 4Q11 was US$0.78, compared with US$0.83 per ADS in the prior quarter and US$0.61 per diluted ADS in 4Q10. Excluding share-based compensation expenses and impairment loss for long-term assets, non-GAAP net income for the full year 2011 was US$150.8 million, compared to US$82.0 million in 2010. Diluted non-GAAP income per ADS for 2011 was US$2.78, compared with US$1.56 per ADS in 2010.

Total assets as of December 31, 2011 were US$681.1 million, down US$24.0 million from US$705.1 million as of September 30, 2011.

Current liabilities decreased from US$414.0 million as of September 30, 2011 to US$355.4 million as of December 31, 2011, primarily due to the decrease of US$21.6 million in accounts payable and US$44.0 million in advance from customers, partially offset by an increase of US$5.8 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Long-term liabilities as of December 31, 2011 were US$12.7 million, compared to US$12.5 million as of September 30, 2011.

DISCUSSION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES:
In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with US GAAP, the Company's earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the effects of share-based compensation and other non-recurring items. The non-GAAP financial measures used by management and disclosed by the Company exclude the income statement effects of all forms of share-based compensation.
The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The financial results reported in accordance with US GAAP and reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be prepared differently from and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The Company provides the presentation of non-GAAP gross margin, non- GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per ADS, all excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The non-GAAP diluted earnings per ADS are calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by the US GAAP weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
