MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - October 27, 2009) - Cavium Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: [ CAVM ]), a leading provider of highly integrated semiconductor products that enable intelligent processing for networking, communications, storage, wireless and security applications, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2009 ended September 30, 2009.

Revenue in the third quarter of 2009 was $25.9 million, a 14% sequential increase from the $22.8 million reported for the second quarter of 2009 and an increase of 6% from the $24.5 million reported for the third quarter of last year.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) Results

Net loss for the third quarter of 2009, on a GAAP basis, was $4.2 million, or $0.10 per share, compared to a net loss of $6.2 million, or $0.15 per share in the second quarter of 2009, and net income of $1.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted share in the third quarter of last year. Gross margins were 51.5% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 46.8% in the second quarter of 2009 and 58.8% in the third quarter of 2008. Total cash and cash equivalents were $70.7 million at September 30, 2009.

Non-GAAP Results

Cavium Networks believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the company's financial condition and results of operations. These measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures in the third quarter of 2009 exclude expenses totaling $4.9 million related to stock-based compensation and related payroll expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition related compensation expense and related payroll taxes. The reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial results is provided in the financial statements portion of this release.

Net income for the third quarter of 2009, on a non-GAAP basis, was $0.8 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.02 per share in the second quarter of 2009 and net income of $4.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share in the third quarter of last year. Gross margins, on a non-GAAP basis, were 55.7% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 52.0% in the second quarter of 2009.

"We had record sales this quarter, due to primarily strong growth in our Enterprise and Data Center business driven by several new product ramps and a continuing recovery in the run rate business. In addition, non-GAAP gross margins expanded 370 basis points sequentially, due to improved product mix, reduced product costs as well as improved manufacturing overhead absorption. The increased sales along with expanding gross margins significantly improved sequential operating performance this quarter," said Syed Ali, president and CEO of Cavium Networks. "We have recently introduced a number of new products, including our Next Generation OCTEON™ II family of multi-core processors (from one to 32 cores), our NITROX DPI Family of Layer 7 Content Processors, as well as our new ECONA ARM-Based processors for the connected home and office applications and the PureVu family of products for highly interactive video applications and display which helped drive extremely robust design win rates during the quarter."
