- Cash position of $47.5 million at the end of the quarter
Total revenues in the third quarter of 2007 were $5.2 million, an increase of 153% compared to $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2006, and an increase of 14% compared to $4.6 million in the second quarter of 2007. All of LanOptics' revenues were attributable to its EZchip Technologies Ltd. subsidiary.
Net loss on a GAAP basis for the third quarter of 2007 was $0.8 million, or $0.05 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.18 per share, in the third quarter of 2006, and a net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.10 per share, in the second quarter of 2007.
Net income on a non-GAAP basis, for the third quarter of 2007 was $0.4 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with a non-GAAP net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.14 per share, in the third quarter of 2006, and a non-GAAP net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share, in the second quarter of 2007.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of September 30, 2007, totaled $47.5 million compared to $16.3 million as of June 30, 2007. During the third quarter the company completed a $43.5 million public offering of its shares, of which $14.2 million was used to increase LanOptics' ownership interest in EZchip through the purchase of EZchip shares issued upon the exercise of employee stock options.
"This quarter has been another significant quarter for our company, continuing the growth trend experienced in recent quarters," commented Eli Fruchter, Chairman of the Board of LanOptics and CEO of EZchip. "We achieved record revenue levels, crossing the $5 million revenue mark, and generated record gross margins. Combined with lower than expected NRE expenses, this resulted in our achieving for the first time operating and net income on a non-GAAP basis."
Mr. Fruchter added, "In recent weeks we announced two exciting developments. We launched the NPA family of Ethernet Access network processors, which is expected to triple our addressable market size. The addition of the NPA will round up EZchip's product offering to feature a series of Ethernet network processors for the carrier edge, metro and access markets, with throughputs ranging from 1-Gigabit to 100-Gigabits and a common architecture and software. Also, in September we raised $43.5 million, further enhancing our financial strength. Consistent with our previously announced intentions, we have used some of the cash to purchase EZchip shares from employees, furthering our goal of attaining full ownership of EZchip."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this release of operating results also contains non-GAAP financial measures, which LanOptics believes are the principal indicators of the operating and financial performance of its business. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effects of stock-based compensation charges recorded in accordance with SFAS 123R, amortization of intangible assets, in-process research and development charge, minority interest in loss of EZchip and non-cash interest expense relating to redeemable preferred shares in EZchip. Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures provided are useful to investors' understanding and assessment of LanOptics' on-going core operations and prospects for the future, as the charges eliminated are not part of the day-to-day business or reflective of the core operational activities of the Company. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as a basis for strategic decisions, forecasting future results and evaluating the Company's current performance. However, such measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the schedules attached to this release.
