Comments of Management

Mr. Shaike Orbach, Silicom's President and CEO, commented, "The third quarter was another period of progress for Silicom, with important Design Wins from both new and existing customers confirming our favorable positioning in booming Cloud/Virtualization-related markets as well as the Cyber Security and Network Monitoring/Analytics space. During the quarter, we were proud to achieve a new Design Win with a strategic Cyber Security customer, and we have recently announced another important Network Monitoring Design Win for our state-of-the-art new Time Stamping and Packet Processing cards.

"In addition, we are beginning to benefit from the momentum of SD-WAN (Software-Defined WAN), a 'hot' technology which is being deployed broadly by both service providers and enterprises. After achieving our first SD-WAN Design Win last quarter, this quarter we announced that our SD-WAN targeted Network EDGE/CPE appliances are now certified for Versa's managed SD-WAN projects. These state-of-the-art solutions are being marketed to many world-leading service providers and telecommunications industry giants, and we firmly believe that SD-WAN will become a potent new revenue driver for us."

Mr. Orbach concluded, "In short, with tailwinds behind us, a top-tier base of customers, a growing roster of Design Wins and multiple exciting sales opportunities underway, we feel exceedingly well positioned as we approach 2017 and beyond."
