Silicon Image Cautions on Mobile Outlook

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--December 18, 2014 -- Silicon Image (NASDAQ:SIMG), a leading provider of multimedia connectivity solutions and services, today announced that it expects a year-over-year revenue decline in 2015 of approximately 10% due to a reduction in mobile design wins at one of its largest customers.

The decline in the mobile business segment is expected to be partially offset by continued strength in the company's CE business segment due to continued penetration of MHL® in mainstream TVs, and the popularity of 4K Ultra HD where the company has multiple HDMI® 2.0 / MHL 3.0 designs.

"Although we believe that both our CE and licensing businesses will remain strong, we now anticipate top line 2015 revenues to be down compared to 2014," said Camillo Martino, chief executive officer of Silicon Image. "While we continue to execute on our long term strategic growth initiatives, we remain committed to reduce our operating expenses in 2015 and anticipate that even with a top line revenue decline, we will remain profitable with operating margin as a percent of revenue expected to be flat to slightly up for the year."
