Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On April 28, 2021, Silicon Laboratories Inc. (“Silicon Laboratories”) issued a press release describing its results of operations for its fiscal quarter ended April 3, 2021. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99 to this report.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits

(d) Exhibits.

99 Press Release of Silicon Laboratories Inc. dated April 28, 2021
104 Cover Page Interactive Data File (formatted as Inline XBRL and contained in Exhibit 101)

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

From time to time, Silicon Laboratories provides certain non-GAAP financial measures as additional information relating to its operating results. The non-GAAP financial measurements provided in the press release furnished herewith do not replace the presentation of Silicon Laboratories’ GAAP financial results. These additional measurements merely provide supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing Silicon Laboratories’ financial position and results of operations; however, these measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Non-GAAP financial measures used by Silicon Laboratories include non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development expense, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expense, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP interest expense, non-GAAP tax expense, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Silicon Laboratories has chosen to provide this information to investors because it believes that such supplemental information enables them to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results, and as a means to highlight the results of core ongoing operations.

Non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted by the following items:

· Stock compensation expense – represents charges for employee<br>stock awards issued under Silicon Laboratories’ stock-based compensation plans.<br>Stock compensation expense is excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because it is a non-cash expense, and excluding such expense<br>provides meaningful supplemental information regarding core ongoing operations.
· Intangible asset amortization – primarily represents charges for the amortization of intangibles assets, such as core<br>and developed technology, customer relationships and trademarks, acquired in connection with business combinations. Intangible asset amortization<br>is excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because it is a non-cash expense, and excluding such expense provides meaningful supplemental<br>information regarding core ongoing operations.
--- ---
· Acquisition related items – primarily including the following: charges for the fair value write-up associated with inventory<br>acquired; adjustments to the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration; and acquisition-related costs of a business combination,<br>such as costs for attorneys, investment bankers, accountants and other third party service providers. Acquisition related items are excluded<br>from non-GAAP financial measures because excluding such amounts provides meaningful supplemental information regarding core ongoing operations.
--- ---
· Restructuring Charges – primarily include costs associated with certain employee terminations, asset impairments and<br>fair value adjustments resulting from observable price changes. Termination costs and fair value adjustments are excluded from non-GAAP<br>financial measures because excluding such amounts provides meaningful supplemental information regarding core ongoing operations.
--- ---
· Fair value adjustments to investments – primarily include gains and/or losses associated with certain fair value adjustments<br>for equity investments accounted for by the equity method of accounting or cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting<br>from qualifying observable price changes. Fair value adjustments are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because these generally<br>are non-cash, non-operating activity during the period of adjustment, relate to activity in entities outside those of Silicon Labs, and<br>excluding such expense/gain provides meaningful supplemental information regarding core operations.
--- ---
· Interest expense adjustments – represents charges for<br>the amortization of the debt discount on Silicon Laboratories’ convertible<br>senior notes, losses on the extinguishment of convertible debt and losses on the termination of interest rate swap agreements. Such amounts<br>are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because they are non-cash expenses and/or excluding such amounts provides meaningful supplemental<br>information regarding core ongoing operations.
--- ---
· Income tax adjustments – primarily include the following: the effect of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act of 2017; the current<br>and deferred income tax effects of the above non-GAAP adjustments; other indirect impacts of excluding stock-based compensation; and the<br>income tax impact of certain intercompany license arrangements for technology acquired in business combinations. Income tax adjustments<br>are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because excluding such amounts provides meaningful supplemental information regarding core<br>ongoing operations.
--- ---

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided in the press release furnished with this report a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The information in this report, including the exhibit hereto, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section.  The information contained therein and in the accompanying exhibit shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission made by Silicon Laboratories, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
