AUSTIN, Texas — (BUSINESS WIRE) — July 29, 2015Silicon Labs (NASDAQ: SLAB), a leading provider of microcontroller, wireless connectivity, analog and sensor solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT), today reported financial results for its second quarter ended July 4, 2015.

Business Outlook

The company expects revenue in the third quarter to be in the range of $151 million to $156 million. Third quarter diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $0.04 and $0.10 on a GAAP basis and between $0.39 and $0.45 on a non-GAAP basis.

“We delivered another record quarter, and are encouraged by the traction we are seeing in our strategic growth businesses including our Internet of Things, Infrastructure and Broadcast automotive products,” said Tyson Tuttle, CEO of Silicon Labs. “However, we believe macro trends continue to stifle the global demand for TVs, with the latest market estimates calling for a reduction in unit demand for 2015. Accordingly, we expect third quarter Broadcast revenue to decline again by approximately 15 percent, counter to typical seasonality.”
