AUSTIN, Texas --(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Cirrus Logic, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRUS) today posted on its website at investor.cirrus.com the quarterly Shareholder Letter that contains the complete financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, which ended June 29, 2024 , as well as the company’s current business outlook. “Cirrus Logic delivered revenue above the top end of our guidance range in the June quarter driven by stronger-than-expected shipments into smartphones,” said John Forsyth , Cirrus Logic president and chief executive officer. “In addition to these strong results, during the quarter we began ramping production of our custom boosted amplifier and first 22-nanometer smart codec ahead of new smartphone launches that are expected later this year. We also executed against our growth strategy to drive product and end-market diversification as we saw strong design activity in laptops and introduced the latest products in a series of data converters targeting professional audio, consumer, and industrial applications. With a compelling roadmap of products and an outstanding track record of execution, we believe we are well-positioned to grow long-term shareholder value.” Reported Financial Results – First Quarter FY25 Revenue of $374.0 million ; GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of 50.5 percent and 50.6 percent; GAAP operating expenses of $142.1 million and non-GAAP operating expenses of $118.0 million ; and GAAP earnings per share of $0.76 and non-GAAP earnings per share of $1.12 . A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information is included in the tables accompanying this press release. Business Outlook – Second Quarter FY25 Revenue is expected to range between $490 million and $550 million ; GAAP gross margin is forecasted to be between 50 percent and 52 percent; and Combined GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses are anticipated to range between $149 million and $155 million , including approximately $22 million in stock-based compensation expense and $2 million in amortization of acquired intangibles, resulting in a non-GAAP operating expense range between $125 million and $131 million .
