FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
EARNINGS RELEASE
Silicom Reports Q1 2020 Financial Results
- Company Announces New One-Year $15m Share Buyback Program -
KFAR SAVA, Israel, April 30, 2020 - --Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SILC), a leading provider of high-performance networking and data infrastructure solutions, today
today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.
Financial Results
Revenues for the first quarter of 2020 totaled $22.1 million compared with $30.2 million for the first quarter of 2019. This is at the higher end of the updated guidance provided on April 6, 2020,
and is approximately 15% below earlier estimates provided in late January, prior to the global disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
On a GAAP basis, net income for the quarter totaled $1.5 million, or $0.20 per share (basic and diluted), compared with $3.6 million, or $0.48 per share (basic and diluted) for the first quarter of
2019.
On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), non-GAAP net income for the period totaled $2.3 million, or $0.31 per share (basic and diluted), compared with $4.0 million, or $0.52 per
diluted share ($0.53 per basic share), for the first quarter of 2019. This is the Company’s 61st profitable quarter.
Silicom’s cash position as of the end of the quarter, which includes cash, cash equivalents, deposits and marketable securities and zero debt, totaled $79.9 million dollars (or $11.05 per outstanding
share).
Share Repurchase Plan
In addition, the Company today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a new one-year share repurchase plan allowing the Company to invest up to $15 million to repurchase its ordinary
shares. This plan will begin as soon as the previously-announced $15 million one-year share repurchase plan is completed. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend upon a variety of factors, including price and general business
and market conditions. The share repurchase plan authorizes management to repurchase ordinary shares using a variety of methods, including open market purchases, all in compliance with the rules of the US Securities and Exchange Commission and other
applicable legal requirements. Repurchases will be funded from available working capital. The share repurchase plan does not obligate Silicom to buy back any specific number of shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time at management’s
discretion.
Management notes that its cash balance provides sufficient working capital and financial flexibility to weather the current environment while completing the Company’s current share buy-back program
and carrying out this new share buy-back program.
Comments of Management
Shaike Orbach, Silicom’s President and CEO, commented, “We are pleased to report our 61st consecutive profitable quarter despite the severe disruption associated with the global COVID-19
environment. As we noted earlier this month, 2020 was off to an excellent start before the pandemic took hold, slowing our supply chain and interrupting manufacturing and deliveries. Given the significant challenges inherent in the situation, we are
pleased with our first quarter financial results.
“While short-term visibility is still very low, the fundamentals of our business remain intact, and we remain optimistic about our mid- and long-term prospects. The broadband boom that has been
driven by the need to ‘shelter at home’ is actually creating a new urgency for telco and Cloud-player investments in new SD-WAN, NFV, Security and 5G networks, highlighting the importance of our enabling solutions. As a result, interest in our
solutions remains high and we continue to make progress on high-potential new design wins.
“For example, we were recently chosen to supply $15 million worth of Intelligent Bypass solutions for a massive governmental infrastructure project, and the project’s integrator expects additional
similar projects over time.”
Mr. Orbach concluded, “While it is too early to predict exactly when we will reach the ‘new normal,’ we are optimistic that it will be a reality in which networks and connectivity rise to even
greater importance. With strong existing design wins and continued interest from some of the market’s key players, we believe that we will benefit from several years of solid double-digit Compound Annual Growth Rate once the impact of the pandemic is
behind us. Until the dust clears, our ongoing activities and cash position are strong enough to carry us past temporary challenges.”
Conference Call Details
Silicom’s Management will host an interactive conference today, April 30th, at 9am Eastern Time (6am Pacific Time, 4pm Israel Time) to review and discuss the results.

Statements in this press release which are not historical data are forward-looking statements which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, or other factors not under the company's control,
which may cause actual results, performance, or achievements of the company to be materially different from the results, performance, or other expectations implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to,
Silicom's increasing dependence for substantial revenue growth on a limited number of customers in the evolving cloud-based, SD-WAN, NFV and Edge markets, the speed and extent to which solutions are adopted by these markets, likelihood that Silicom

maintaining and protecting brand recognition, protection of intellectual property, competition, disruptions to our manufacturing and development along with general disruptions to the entire world economy relating to the spread of the novel
coronavirus (COVID-19) and other factors detailed in the company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the context of the statement will include
words, such as “expects,” “should,” “believes,” “anticipates” or words of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements. In light of significant risks and uncertainties
