"We are very pleased with the
performance of our business in the first quarter. Our revenue of $151.6 million
in the first quarter was up 6% over the prior year and was at the high end of
our guidance range, driven by strength in both Host and Silicon Products,"
said Simon Biddiscombe, president and chief executive officer, QLogic. "We
continue to see tangible benefits from our focus and investments in expansion
markets. Our results in the first quarter were highlighted by strong growth in
revenue from converged and 10Gb Ethernet products, which grew more than 20%
sequentially for the second consecutive quarter."
