Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Silicon Image presents and discusses gross margin, operating expenses, net income (loss) and basic and diluted net income (loss) per share in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and on a non-GAAP basis for informational purposes only. Silicon Image believes that non-GAAP reporting, giving effect to the adjustments shown in the attached reconciliation, provides meaningful information and therefore uses non-GAAP reporting to supplement its GAAP reporting and internally in evaluating operations, managing and monitoring performance, and determining bonus compensation. Further, Silicon Image uses non-GAAP information as certain non-cash charges such as amortization of intangibles, stock based compensation, impairment of investment in an unconsolidated affiliate, impairment of intangible asset, write-off certain unsalable inventory, restructuring charges, business acquisition related expenses and reversal of a subsidiary's foreign currency translation adjustment do not reflect the cash operating results of the business.
