Yes! I would like to express my love for Cirrus Logic. Thank you Apple, Steve Jobs and Cirrus Logic, without 3 of you, I will not be able to make more than $25K on Cirrus Logic. I have previously made $15K from Cirrus Logic stock and now I am making another $10K at least.
Even though I did not own any Apple product for now, but I would like to wish Steve Jobs all the best in his health and I will pray for him everyday for him to come back to bring more life and fun to Apple future product and development. When he return, I expect Apple stock to go up by at least another 30% and follow by Cirrus Logic to gain another 50% at least.

Cirrus Logic Reports Fiscal Third Quarter Revenue of $95.6 Million, Up 47 Percent Year-Over-Year
AUSTIN, Texas, Jan 27, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Cirrus Logic, Inc. (CRUS), a leader in high-precision analog and digital signal processing components, today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, which ended Dec. 25, 2010.
Revenue for the quarter was $95.6 million, up 47 percent compared to the same quarter a year ago, and down five percent sequentially from the previous quarter. Gross margin for the quarter was 55 percent, up slightly from 54 percent in the third quarter a year ago, and down slightly from 56 percent for the previous quarter.
Total GAAP operating expenses for the quarter were approximately $29.4 million, compared to $27.7 million in the previous quarter. Non-GAAP operating expenses for the quarter were approximately $28.0 million compared to $27.6 million in the previous quarter.
Income from operations on a GAAP basis was approximately $23.1 million, representing an operating margin of 24 percent. Income from operations on a non-GAAP basis was $24.5 million, representing a non-GAAP operating margin of 26 percent
GAAP net income for the quarter was approximately $24.6 million, or $0.34 per share, based on 71.7 million average diluted shares outstanding. Non-GAAP net income was $24.2 million, or $0.34 per diluted share.
A reconciliation of the non-GAAP charges is included in a table below.
"Revenue from portable audio products exceeded our expectations, helping to drive overall Q3 revenue growth of 47 percent year over year," said Jason Rhode, president and chief executive officer, Cirrus Logic. "Looking at both the fourth quarter and the next fiscal year, we believe we will continue to grow revenue at a faster rate than the semiconductor industry as a whole. With the production ramps continuing this next year in portable audio, new design wins in other audio markets, and ongoing design activity with our strategic energy initiatives, we are very excited about the opportunities ahead."
Outlook for Fourth Quarter FY 2011 (ending Mar. 26, 2011):
Revenue is expected to range between $88 million and $94 million; Gross margin is expected to be between 54 percent and 56 percent; and Combined R&D and SG&A expenses are expected to range between $31 million and $33 million, which include approximately $2.5 million in share-based compensation and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles expenses.
