Non-GAAP Gross Margin Improves 410 Basis Points Sequentially to 47.7%;
Non-GAAP Operating Margin Improves 740 Basis Points Sequentially to a Record 23.0%

LOWELL, MA, May 8, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- M/A-COM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:MTSI) ("M/A-COM Tech"), a leading supplier of high performance analog semiconductor solutions, today reported its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 ended March 30, 2012.

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2012 GAAP Results

Revenue increased 6.1 percent sequentially to $77.5 million;
Gross margin increased to 47.2 percent;
Operating margin increased to 23.2 percent;
Net loss was ($53.6) million, or ($8.02) per share, largely due to non-cash adjustments in the value of equity instruments carried at fair value; and
Cash and cash equivalents were $74.7 million and there was no debt outstanding as of March 30, 2012.

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2012 Non-GAAP Results

Gross margin increased to 47.7 percent;
Operating margin increased to 23.0 percent;
Net income increased to $12.1 million, or $0.28 per diluted share; and
Results were driven by improved operational efficiency, increasing sales of higher margin products and continued management of operating expenses.

Commenting on the results, Charles Bland, Chief Executive Officer of M/A-COM Tech, stated, "For our first quarter as a public company, I am pleased to report sequential growth in revenue and gross margin, as well as record operating margin results. Our new product initiatives, cost savings and operating leverage continue to drive revenue and margin expansion as well as strong positive cash flow. During the quarter, we released 34 new products targeting a broad range of applications in our core markets."

"Revenue during the quarter was driven primarily by strong, broad-based demand in the Aerospace and Defense market, particularly in products for radar and satellite communication datalinks. Networks market revenue continued to be impacted by reduced spending by telecommunication operators, particularly for base station infrastructure applications. Nonetheless, we continue to believe in the long-term trend toward increasing demand for next generation networking solutions that enable the increasingly data-intensive applications of today and the future. Our Multi-market revenue reflected an increase in sales of our products for mobile devices and automotive applications, offset by declines in demand for our general purpose products through our distribution channels. Overall, I believe our continued focus on new product development and execution will drive further growth and margin expansion in 2012."

Business Outlook

Based on the present and projected end-market demand environment for its products, M/A-COM Tech's current expectation for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 is for revenue to range between $78.0 million and $82.0 million, non-GAAP gross margin between 48.0 percent and 50.0 percent and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share between $0.25 and $0.30, assuming 48.1 million shares outstanding.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements based on M/A-COM Tech management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include, among others, information concerning our stated business outlook and future results of operations, trends toward increasing demand for next generation networking solutions, business strategies, competitive position, industry, potential for future growth and margin expansion and market opportunities. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and generally may be identified by terms such as "anticipates," "believes," "could," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "may," "plans," "potential," "predicts," "projects," "seeks," "should," "will," "would" or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms.

Forward-looking statements contained in this press release reflect M/A-COM Tech's current views about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and changes in circumstances that may cause those events or our actual activities or results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. Although M/A-COM Tech believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot and does not guarantee future events, results, actions, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements, including, among others, the potential for continued weakness in our Networks market, lower than expected demand in any of our three primary markets or from any of our large OEM customers, lower than expected absorption in our manufacturing facilities, lack of success or slower than expected success in our new product development efforts, lower than anticipated customer acceptance of our new product introductions, potential for a shift in the mix of products sold in any period toward lower-margin products or shift in the geographical mix of our revenues, the impact of supply shortages or other disruptions in our internal or outsourced supply chain, the relative success of our cost-savings initiatives, as well as those factors described in "Risk Factors" in M/A-COM Tech's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its prospectus filed on March 15, 2012. M/A-COM Tech undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to GAAP reporting, M/A-COM Tech provides investors with Non-GAAP financial reporting, including gross margin, operating margin, net income and other data calculated on a Non-GAAP basis. This Non-GAAP information excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, share-based and other non-cash compensation expense, restructuring charges, changes in the carrying values of liabilities measured at fair value, other non-cash expenses and certain income tax items. Management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of M/A-COM Tech's underlying performance. The exclusion of these and other similar items from M/A-COM Tech's Non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual. M/A-COM Tech believes this Non-GAAP financial information provides additional insight into M/A-COM Tech's on-going performance and has therefore chosen to provide this information to investors for a more consistent basis of comparison and to help them evaluate the results of M/A-COM Tech's on-going operations and enable more meaningful period to period comparisons. These Non-GAAP measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between GAAP and Non-GAAP financial data is included in the supplemental financial data attached to this press release.
