Total cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $101.3 million at December 31, 2004, compared with $17.5 million at December 31, 2003.

"2004 was an excellent year for SiRF and we made very good progress in Q4 in each of our focus markets. Our SiRFStar III platform is now the technology of choice in the wireless market, which reinforces our technology leadership in each of the markets we serve", said Dr. Michael Canning, president and CEO. "Revenue performance in Q4 was affected by delays in the production release of SiRFStar III software and by a shortfall in IP revenue. Now that SiRFStar III software has been fully released to customers, our design win momentum and other key metrics continue very strong and augur well for the future."

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
To supplement the company's condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, SiRF uses non-GAAP additional measures of operating results, net income and net income per share adjusted to exclude certain expenses it believes appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of SiRF's past financial performance and also its prospects for the future.
