Management Qualitative Comments "Our fourth quarter results came in sequentially lower and within the guidance range we provided in October," said Morris Young, chief executive officer. "However, despite near-term challenges, for 2011 as a whole, we posted the strongest fiscal year results in more than 10 years. Revenue for the year was up 9 percent from the prior year, gross margin increased by nearly four hundred basis points and net income rose by approximately 9 percent. In addition, we laid important groundwork to prepare our company for growth as we enter the next semiconductor cycle as well as increasing demand relating to a number of key secular trends that we play into. Across our business, we placed great emphasis on diversification of our customer base with notable success in every product category. We strengthened our sales presence and product specifications to enhance our participation in key geographic areas, such as China, Japan and Taiwan. Further, we took a critical, measured step to ensure that we have the appropriate level of capacity at the right time to meet market demand as it increases over the next several years. Throughout 2011, we carefully managed our expense levels and further improved our manufacturing and operating efficiency to keep pace with the pricing requirements of our customers and the sizeable fluctuations in raw materials costs. I am pleased by the way our team executed on its mission in 2011 and believe that we are well positioned for continued growth in 2012."
