Management Qualitative Comments

“We are pleased with the number of new customer mobile products featuring InvenSense integrated 6-axis MotionTracking(TM) devices which launched during the quarter” said Steven Nasiri, CEO, Chairman and Founder, “While limited availability of other leading edge electronic components reduced the volume and availability of new customer products and impacted our revenue growth rates, we are encouraged by the continuing broad adoption of Motion Interface and in particular our MotionTracking devices by leading smartphone and tablet makers, including some mid-range devices, and we see a continuing demand and strong adoption of our MotionTracking devices by all leading customers in our space.”
