million and $0.1 million, respectively.
Gideon Wertheizer, Chief Executive Officer of CEVA, stated, "During the fourth
quarter we were able to drive meaningful growth and generate significant momentum
throughout our operations, producing record-setting results. CEVA-powered cellular
baseband processor shipments increased for the twelfth consecutive quarter and continued
to drive growth for us in every segment of the wireless market, from low cost feature
phones through to 4G LTE smartphones and tablets. We also continued our strategic
expansion into new markets during the quarter with customer wins for smart TV and
connectivity applications."
Mr. Wertheizer continued, "Looking back at a very successful 2011, we delivered on
our two main strategic goals: driving strong growth of CEVA-powered baseband chipsets and
extending our technology leadership in the DSP space. Our customers shipped more than 927
million CEVA-powered basebands during the year, and more than 1 billion CEVA-based
chipsets overall. We introduced new DSP products for audio and imaging aimed to diversify
our revenue beyond baseband. We remain ideally positioned to further benefit from ongoing
market trends, specifically the evolution in cellular networks in both developed and
emerging economies, the expansion of wireless connectivity in devices beyond handsets, as
well as mass adoption and feature set enhancement of smartphones and other smart
devices."
During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company concluded seven new license
agreements. Four of the agreements were for CEVA DSP cores, platforms, and software, two
agreements were for CEVA SATA/SAS technology and one agreement was for CEVA Bluetooth
technology. Target applications for customer deployment are TD-SCDMA baseband processors
for handsets, smart TV for emerging markets, connectivity for smartphones and solid state
drives. Geographically, two of the agreements signed were in the U.S. and five were in
Asia.
