Ikanos Communications Reports Positive Results for Fourth Quarter 2007

Recent Highlights:

FREMONT, Calif., Jan. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ikanos Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:IKAN), a leading developer and provider of Fiber Fast(TM) broadband solutions, today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 30, 2007.

"I am very pleased that Ikanos achieved profitable growth during our fourth quarter 2007. Our quarterly revenue increased 10% sequentially and 42% from the year ago period, driven by increased worldwide demand for our interactive broadband solutions," said Michael A. Ricci, Ikanos' president and CEO. "We continue to see increased interest in our industry-leading access infrastructure and digital home solutions, as carriers upgrade their networks to offer advanced, revenue-generating triple play services such as high definition IPTV. We believe that Ikanos is in a leading position to benefit from this market trend."

Financial Highlights:

Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2007 was $29.9 million compared with revenue of $27.3 million for the third quarter of 2007 and revenue of $21.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2006.

Ikanos reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and additionally on a non-GAAP basis. Non-GAAP net income (loss), where applicable, excludes the income statement effects of stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, certain expenses incurred in connection with a common stock offering, and certain expenses resulting from acquisitions such as amortization of intangible assets, fair value adjustment of the acquired inventory and in-process research and development charges. Ikanos has provided these measures because management believes these additional non-GAAP measures are useful to investors for performing financial analysis as these additional measures highlight Ikanos' recurring operating results. Ikanos' management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate its operating performance and to plan for its future. However, non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures. For a reconciliation of GAAP versus non-GAAP financial information, please see the attached schedules.

GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $4.1 million, or $0.14 per share, on 29.3 million weighted average shares. This compares with a net loss of $13.0 million, or $0.45 per share, on 28.7 million weighted average shares in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and with a net loss of $15.6 million, or $0.56 per share, on 27.6 million weighted average shares in the fourth quarter of 2006.

Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, on 30.7 million weighted average shares. This compares with non-GAAP net loss of $4.9 million, or $0.17 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and with a non-GAAP net loss of $8.6 million, or $0.31 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2006.

For the year ended December 30, 2007, revenue was $107.5 million, compared with the $134.7 million reported for the year ago period.

GAAP net loss for the year ended December 30, 2007 was $33.3 million, or $1.16 per share, on 28.6 million weighted average shares. This compares with a net loss of $22.8 million, or $0.86 per share, on 26.6 million weighted average shares for the year ago period.

Non-GAAP net loss for the year ended December 30, 2007 was $12.1 million, or $0.42 per share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $2.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the year ago period. Weighted average shares used in computing non-GAAP net income (loss) per share were 28.6 million in 2007 and 28.9 million in 2006.

Recent Highlights: -- Ikanos announced that SOFTBANK BB Corp. named Ikanos as the exclusive provider of multi-mode VDSL2 central office (CO) and customer premises equipment (CPE) chipsets to power its new Fiber to the Remote (FTTR) deployment in Japan. The chipsets will offer significantly higher bandwidth than currently deployed ADSLx technologies, thus facilitating future deployment of revenue-enhancing services such as triple play.

-- Ikanos' entered into a definitive agreement to purchase DSL technology and assets from Centillium Communications, Inc. Their people, products and intellectual property -- including nearly 60 patents and applications -- further enhance Ikanos' leadership position and provide an expanded customer base in Europe while fortifying its leading position in Japan.

-- Ikanos announced that its Fusiv Vx155 processor will be used in a major Korean telecommunication service provider's first trial deployment of residential gateways. Ikanos' Fusiv Vx155 powers Mercury Corporation's PHY-agnostic residential gateway, which is designed to be used with VDSL2-, PON- and AON-based access networks for distributing triple play services in the home. Mercury Corporation is the only gateway vendor to successfully pass the Korean telco's rigorous benchmark testing and reach field trial deployment.

Outlook:

The following guidance reflects Ikanos' business without consideration of the effect of purchasing Centillium's DSL assets.

-- Revenue is expected to be between $28 million and $30 million in the first quarter of 2008.

-- Non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be between 44% and 46% in the first quarter of 2008. GAAP gross margins in the first quarter of 2008 will be lower than non-GAAP gross margins, as they will include amortization of acquisition-related intangibles of approximately $1.0 million and charges related to stock-based compensation expense in accordance with FAS 123(R) of approximately $0.1 million.

-- Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be in the range of $13.5 to $14.5 million in the first quarter of 2008. GAAP operating expenses in the first quarter of 2008 will be higher, as they will include amortization of acquisition-related intangibles of $0.3 million and charges related to stock-based compensation expense in accordance with FAS 123(R) of $3.0 to $4.0 million.
