By
PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: PXLW), a leading provider of innovative video and display processing solutions, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Second Quarter and Recent Highlights
OPPO affiliate, OnePlus, launched the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro smartphone, incorporating Pixelworks’ X7 Gen 2 visual processor featuring AI-based distributed computing architecture and enhanced rendering capabilityAnnounced collaboration with Tencent’s TiMi Studio group and the integration of Pixelworks’ IRX rendering acceleration technology in the Honor of Kings mobile gameCollaborated with Seasun Games to optimize visual processing and bring detailed 120fps display effects to JX3 Ultimate Mobile, making it the latest mobile game to leverage IRX certified rendering accelerationImplemented reduction in workforce to better align operating expense with near-term revenue levels, anticipated to contribute approximately $4.0 million of annualized savings beginning in the third quarter
“Second quarter revenue was at the midpoint guidance and largely reflected the expected headwinds in our mobile business, primarily related to the inventory correction at a large mobile OEM customer,” stated Todd DeBonis, President and CEO of Pixelworks. “In response and to better align expenses with near-term revenue levels, we implemented cost reduction actions during the quarter, which are anticipated to result in $4 million of annualized cost saving beginning in the third quarter of 2024.
“During the quarter, we made continued progress on the expansion of our IRX gaming ecosystem. Our recent announced collaborations with Tencent on Honor of Kings and Seasun Games on JX3 Ultimate Mobile represent the latest additions to the growing list of IRX certified mobile games. Coupled with one of Pixelworks’ X-series of visual processors, our IRX rendering accelerator technology enables PC-quality visual performance on a smartphone without generating excessive heat or battery consumption. Growing this ecosystem remains a fundamental element of our multi-pronged mobile strategy to drive broader adoption of our mobile visual processors, and we currently engaged with multiple top gaming studios to release several additional high-profile IRX mobile games later this year.
“Looking ahead, we are confronting the recent challenges head-on while remaining focused on strategic and operational execution across all areas of the business. We are well positioned today for renewed growth in mobile, as we increasingly target an expanded served market for mid to lower tier smartphones. Additionally, the size and influence of our IRX gaming ecosystem continues to grow and will soon be further supported by the introduction of our next-generation mobile visual processor. Together with stable performance of our home and enterprise business, we expect to deliver sequential revenue growth in the third quarter as we continue to target improved operational results over the intermediate-term.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release makes reference to non-GAAP gross profit margins, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share, which exclude stock-based compensation expense and restructuring expense which are both required under GAAP. The press release also makes reference to and reconciles GAAP net loss and adjusted EBITDA, which Pixelworks defines as GAAP net loss attributable to Pixelworks Inc. before interest income and other, net, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization, as well as the specific item listed above.
Pixelworks management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the business and establish its operational goals, review its operations on a period-to-period basis, for compensation evaluations, to measure performance, and for budgeting and resource allocation. Pixelworks management believes it is useful for the Company and investors to review, as applicable, both GAAP information and non-GAAP financial measures to help assess the performance of Pixelworks’ continuing business and to evaluate Pixelworks’ future prospects. These non-GAAP measures, when reviewed together with the GAAP financial information, provide additional transparency and information for comparison and analysis of operating performance and trends. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain items to facilitate management’s review of the comparability of our core operating results on a period-to-period basis.
Because the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial results as presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is included in this earnings release which is available in the investor relations section of the Pixelworks website.
