*Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition*

Semtech Corporation (the “Company”), issued a press release and held a conference call on March 5, 2014. The press release announced its consolidated financial results for the three and twelve months ended January 26, 2014. During the conference call, the Company discussed these financial results. The transcript of the conference call is filed as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. The information in this Form 8-K and the exhibit attached hereto is being furnished (not filed) under Item 2.02 of Form 8-K. The transcript has been selectively edited to facilitate the understanding of the information communicated during the conference call.

During the conference call, the Company discussed non-GAAP measures of gross profit, net income, earnings per diluted share and free cash flow. To provide additional insight into the Company’s first quarter outlook for fiscal year 2015, the conference call included a discussion of forward-looking non-GAAP earnings per diluted share. The non-GAAP gross profit, net income and earnings per diluted share measures exclude the following items:

· Stock-based compensation expense

· Acquisition related fair value adjustments

· Transaction and integration related expenses

· Intangible amortization and impairments

· Release of prior accrued taxes on foreign earnings

· Option related expenses

· Effect of enacted tax rate changes

· Charges directly related to the strategic realignment, including:

– Impairment of goodwill

– Impairment of fixed assets

– Write-down of inventory

– Write-down of net U.S. deferred tax assets

The non-GAAP discussion of free cash flow excludes capital expenditures. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance the user’s overall understanding of the Company’s comparable financial performance between periods. In addition, the Company’s management generally excludes the items noted above when managing and evaluating the performance of the business. Below are reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP results for the fourth quarter of fiscal years 2014 and 2013 and the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, and a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP earnings per diluted share to its most comparable GAAP measure for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015. These additional non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered substitutes for any measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.
