ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
On July 30, 2015, CEVA, Inc. (the Company) announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. A copy of the press release, dated July 30, 2015, is attached and filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1. This information, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to such filing.
In addition to the disclosure of financial results for the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the press release also included non-GAAP net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS) figures that excluded (i) equity-based compensation expenses for the respective periods, (ii) for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, transaction expenses, net of taxes, associated with an acquisition and (iii) for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the impact of the amortization of acquired intangibles and other costs, net of taxes, associated with an acquisition.
The Company believes that the reconciliation of financial measures in the press release is useful to investors in analyzing the results for the quarters and years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 because the exclusion of such expenses may provide a more meaningful analysis of the Companys core operating results and comparison of quarterly results. Further, the Company believes it is useful for investors to understand how the expenses associated with the application of FASB ASC No. 718 are reflected on its statements of income. The reconciliation of financial measures should be reviewed in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, and are intended to provide additional insight into the Companys operations that, when viewed with its GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, offer a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Companys business. The reconciliation of financial measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the Companys reported GAAP results.

Exhibit 99.1
CEVA, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results
| Total quarterly revenue of $13.4M, up 45% year-over-year |
| Record fourteen deals in the quarter |
| Record eleven million CEVA-powered LTE smartphones and tablets shipped in the quarter |
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. July 30, 2015 CEVA, Inc. (NASDAQ: CEVA), the leading licensor of DSP and IP platforms for cellular, multimedia and connectivity, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2015 was $13.4 million, a 45% increase compared to $9.2 million reported for the second quarter of 2014 and at the top end of the Companys guidance range. Second quarter 2015 licensing and related revenue was $7.7 million, a 76% increase when compared to $4.4 million reported for the same quarter a year ago. Royalty revenue for the second quarter of 2015 was $5.7 million, an increase of 17% when compared to $4.9 million reported for the second quarter of 2014.
Gideon Wertheizer, Chief Executive Officer of CEVA, stated: Our solid second quarter performance is the result of a continuing strong licensing environment for our products and our customers progress in LTE shipments. We concluded a record fourteen licensing deals in the quarter, further expanding our addressable markets and customer base. Market demand for connected devices and our high-value IP portfolio for such devices are driving our licensing business. Our growing share in both the 3G and LTE smartphone segments resulted in year-over-year royalty revenue growth for the second consecutive quarter. We anticipate this momentum will accelerate in the coming quarters.
U.S. GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $0.2 million, compared to a $1.5 million net loss reported for the same period in 2014. U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2015 were $0.01, compared to $0.07 net loss per share reported for the second quarter of 2014.
Non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2015 were $1.3 million and $0.06, respectively, compared to a non-GAAP net loss and diluted loss per share of $0.1 million and $0.00, respectively, in the second quarter of 2014. Non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2015 excluded: (a) equity-based compensation expense of $0.8 million, and (b) the impact of the amortization of acquired intangibles and other costs, net of
1
tax, of $0.3 million associated with the acquisition of RivieraWaves. Non-GAAP net loss and diluted loss per share for the second quarter of 2014 excluded equity-based compensation expense, net of taxes, of $1.3 million and $0.2 million related to transaction costs, net of taxes, associated with the RivieraWaves acquisition.
During the quarter, CEVA completed fourteen new licensing deals. Eight of the deals were for CEVA DSP cores, platforms and software and six of the deals were for CEVA connectivity IPs. Of the fourteen licensing deals signed during the quarter, six are with first time customers for CEVA. Target applications for customer deployment include smartphones, tablets, machine to machine equipment, DSLR cameras, various IoT devices and wearables. Geographically, one deal was signed in the US, four were in Europe and nine were in Asia.
Yaniv Arieli, Chief Financial Officer of CEVA, stated: LTE smartphones and tablets powered by our DSPs reached a record high eleven million units in the quarter, as our customers continue to execute on their product ramp ups. This is our sixth consecutive quarter of LTE unit growth and we expect this to continue. During the quarter, we repurchased approximately 176,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate consideration of approximately $3.4 million. At the end of the quarter, our cash balance, marketable securities and bank deposits totaled $126 million.
