The latest addition to Lantronix’ award-winning mobile printing solutions allows users to print to their installed base of network and USB printers from their Google Cloud Print enabled devices, including Chromebooks and Android smartphones.
- During the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company announced several new product collaborations, including:
- A partnership with Bixolon, a leading manufacturer of receipt and Auto ID printers, to deliver a mobile printing solution for retail and point of sale customers that utilizes Lantronix’ award-winning xPrintServer® products.
- A project with Superwinch, a leading manufacturer of consumer and industrial winches, to demonstrate an innovative mobile winch app powered by the Lantronix xPico® Wi-Fi module at SEMA 2013, the world’s premier automotive specialty product trade event.
- The xPico® Wi-Fi Tower Module, designed specifically for the Freescale Tower™ System. The design kit was developed in collaboration with Freescale Semiconductor, a global leader in embedded processing solutions for the automotive, consumer, industrial and networking markets.

The new product allows OEM manufacturers to quickly embed their products with easy-to-deploy, secure and robust device connectivity that is Internet Protocol v6 (IPv6) ready.
“The December quarter marked our second consecutive quarter of non-GAAP net income and sequential quarterly growth in sales of our Enterprise Solutions product line as a result of both new customer acquisitions and increased revenue contribution from several of our new Enterprise Solution product families,” said Kurt Busch, Lantronix president and CEO. “We continue to be pleased with the steady progress of our new OEM Module product families and as customer design wins ramp to production, we expect to reverse the revenue decline in this product line.”

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Lantronix believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial information, when presented in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Management believes that non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share are important measures of the Company’s business. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance.
Non-GAAP operating expenses consist of operating expenses excluding (i) share-based compensation and related payroll taxes and (ii) depreciation and amortization.
Non-GAAP net income (loss) consists of net income (loss) excluding (i) non-GAAP adjustments to operating expenses, (ii) interest income (expense), (iii) other income (expense), and (iv) income tax provision (benefit).
Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) by non-GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted). For purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, the calculation of GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted) is adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, which for GAAP purposes is treated as proceeds assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method.
