Glen Hawk, Interim Chief Executive Officer, said, "We exceeded our expectations for the second quarter of 2018.  We are delivering revenue growth and higher profitability on a non-GAAP basis by focusing on our core business and further improving operational efficiencies.  As an example, after pursuing strategic opportunities, we discontinued our non-core millimeter wave business, which was unable to achieve profitability levels necessary to warrant further investment.  We remain committed to increasing shareholder value and are well-positioned for the future as our control, connect and compute solutions are ideally suited for the emerging IoT markets, particularly in the industrial segment."

Max Downing, Chief Financial Officer, added, "The discontinuation of our millimeter wave business resulted in $24 million of primarily non-cash restructuring and impairment charges which impacted GAAP operating expenses and gross margin. Non-GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter were 12% lower, as compared to the first quarter of 2018, at $39.9 million, as we continue to execute improvements to our cost structure. Importantly, this does not yet reflect the expected $13 million annual operating expense reduction from the discontinuation of our millimeter wave business, which will start to benefit us in the third quarter. Our non-GAAP gross margin came in at the high end of our expectations at 57.2% reflecting the acceleration of server related sales and automotive and industrial applications. Another key takeaway from the quarter is that we made a $10 million discretionary payment against our corporate debt and continue to maintain a healthy balance of $106 million in cash and short-term investments."

Business Outlook - Third Quarter of 2018:
Revenue for the third quarter of 2018 is expected to be between approximately $100 million and $103 million.
Gross margin percentage for the third quarter of 2018 is expected to be approximately 57% plus or minus 2% on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis.
Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2018 are expected to be between approximately $44 million and $47 million on a GAAP basis and between approximately $39 million and $41 million on a non-GAAP basis.  Both GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses will reflect the initial benefits of the millimeter wave discontinuance.  These savings are expected to be offset primarily by $1.5 million in mask and associated project costs related to new product advancements.
* For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP business outlook, see accompanying tables "Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Forward-Looking Statements Notice:
The foregoing paragraphs contain forward-looking statements that involve estimates, assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements include statements relating to: the expected $13 million annual operating expense reduction from the discontinuation of our millimeter wave business will start to benefit us in the third quarter; and the statements under the heading “Business Outlook - Third Quarter of 2018.” Other forward-looking statements may be indicated by words such as “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “forecast,” “future,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “propose,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology; and our expectation that we will remain focused on maximizing the leverage of our operating model and reduce our outstanding debt balance. Lattice believes the factors identified below could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.
Estimates of future revenue are inherently uncertain due to such factors as global economic conditions, which may affect customer demand, pricing pressures, competitive actions, the demand for our Mature, Mainstream and New products, and in particular our iCE40™ and MachXO3L™ devices, the ability to supply products to customers in a timely manner, changes in our distribution relationships, or the volatility of our consumer business. Actual gross margin percentage and operating expenses could vary from the estimates on the basis of, among other things, changes in revenue levels, changes in product pricing and mix, changes in wafer, assembly, test and other costs, including commodity costs, variations in manufacturing yields, the failure to sustain operational improvements, the actual amount of compensation charges due to stock price changes. Any unanticipated declines in revenue or gross margin, any unanticipated increases in our operating expenses or unanticipated charges could adversely affect our profitability.
In addition to the foregoing, other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release include global economic uncertainty, overall semiconductor market conditions, market acceptance and demand for our new products, the Company's dependencies on its silicon wafer suppliers, the impact of competitive products and pricing, technological and product development risks. In addition, actual results are subject to other risks and uncertainties that relate more broadly to our overall business, including those risks more fully described in Lattice’s filings with the SEC including its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017, and Lattice’s quarterly reports filed on Form 10-Q.
You should not unduly rely on forward-looking statements because actual results could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. In addition, any forward-looking statement applies only as of the date on which it is made. The Company does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Included within this press release and the accompanying tables and notes are non-GAAP financial measures that supplement the Company's consolidated financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP measures presented exclude charges and adjustments primarily related to stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, acquisition-related charges, amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, inventory written off from the discontinuation of the Company's millimeter wave business, and the estimated tax effect of these items. These charges and adjustments may be nonrecurring in nature but are a result of periodic or non-core operating activities of the Company. The Company describes these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciles them to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the tables and notes attached to this press release.
The Company's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional and useful way of viewing aspects of our performance that, when viewed in conjunction with our GAAP results, provide a more comprehensive understanding of the various factors and trends affecting our ongoing financial performance and operating results than GAAP measures alone. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures for strategic and business decision-making, internal budgeting, forecasting, and resource allocation processes and believes that investors should have access to similar data when making their investment decisions.
In addition, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in calculating the annual excess cash flow debt payment. These non-GAAP measures are included solely for informational and comparative purposes and are not meant as a substitute for GAAP and should be considered together with the consolidated financial information located in the tables attached to this press release.

(1) Legal fees and outside services that were related to our proposed acquisition by Canyon Bridge Acquisition Company, Inc.
(2) We calculate non-GAAP tax expense by applying our tax provision model to year-to-date and projected income after adjusting
      for non-GAAP items. The difference between calculated values for GAAP and non-GAAP tax expense has been included as
      the “Estimated tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments.”
(3) Diluted shares are calculated using the GAAP treasury stock method. In a loss position, diluted shares equal basic shares.

Exhibit 99.2 LATTICE SEMICONDUCTOR Q2 2018 Earnings Call July 2018


 
Safe Harbor This presentation contains forward-looking statements that involve estimates, assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including statements relating to our expectation that we will continue to successfully execute on the return-to-growth strategy we outlined at last fall’s investor day; and the statements under the heading “Business Outlook – Third Quarter of 2018.” Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this presentation include global economic uncertainty, overall semiconductor market conditions, market acceptance and demand for our new and existing products, the Company's dependencies on its silicon wafer suppliers, the impact of competitive products and pricing, technological and product development risks. In addition, actual results are subject to other risks and uncertainties that relate more broadly to our overall business, including those risks more fully described in Lattice’s filings with the SEC including its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017 and quarterly filings. Certain information in this presentation is identified as having been prepared on a non-GAAP basis. Management uses non-GAAP measures to better assess operating performance and to establish operational goals. Non-GAAP information should not be viewed by investors as a substitute for data prepared in accordance with GAAP. You should not unduly rely on forward-looking statements because actual results could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. In addition, any forward-looking statement applies only as of the date on which it is made. The Company does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

As an example, after pursuing strategic opportunities, we discontinued our non-core millimeter wave business, which was unable to achieve profitability levels necessary to warrant further investment. We remain committed to increasing shareholder value and are well-positioned for the future as our control, connect and compute solutions are ideally suited for the emerging IoT markets, particularly in the industrial segment.” Glen Hawk, Interim Chief Executive Officer [6]
