Gross Margin Analysis: Non-GAAP gross margin for fiscal Q3 was 62.6%, at the lower end of prior guidance due to product mix, which negatively impacted revenue from certain legacy processors.
Operating Expense Management: Non-GAAP operating expense was $49.1 million, about $900,000 lower than the midpoint of prior guidance range, driven by continued expense management and timing of spending between quarters.
Non-GAAP Net Profit Decline: The company reported a non-GAAP net profit of $4.5 million or $0.11 of earnings per diluted share, which is lower than expected due to various operational challenges.
Q4 Revenue Forecast Decline: The forecast for fiscal Q4 revenue is expected to be in the range of $76 million to $80 million, indicating a slight sequential decline in both IoT and auto segments.
