On a GAAP basis, net income for fiscal 2003 was $7.3 million or $0.34 per diluted share, which included amortization of purchased intangible assets of $4.4 million and deferred stock-based compensation of $328,000 from acquisitions. For fiscal 2002, GAAP net income was $2.1 million or $0.12 per diluted share, which included amortization of purchased intangible assets from acquisitions of $2.0 million.
Pro forma net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 was $2.7 million or $0.11 per diluted share, an 81.9% increase over pro forma net income of $1.5 million or $0.09 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002.

A detailed reconciliation of GAAP net income to pro forma net income is included with this press release.
"The semiconductor industry is in a period of rapid change, with the number of dedicated manufacturers, as well as the number of companies sending designs to those manufacturers continuing to grow," commented Mark Templeton, Artisan's president and chief executive officer. "Our record results indicate that Artisan's unique combination of products and technologies have been well accepted by the industry. More than 1,200 companies have licensed Artisan's products for their integrated circuit designs and many of our manufacturing partners are reporting improving factory utilizations, possibly signaling the start of a semiconductor recovery. In addition, we are seeing improving royalty results and are forecasting healthy growth through 2004."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release includes financial information presented on both a pro forma and GAAP basis. Pro forma net income is comprised of GAAP net income plus, to the extent incurred in any particular quarter, amortization of purchased intangible assets and deferred stock-based compensation from acquisitions, in-process research and development and one-time or extraordinary charges, such as the one-time charge for the lease on our former facility. Pro forma net income and net income per share are reduced by the amount of additional tax that would be required to be accrued and expensed by us if pro forma results were used instead of GAAP results to calculate our tax liability.
We provide pro forma financial information to enhance the reader's overall understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects for the future. We believe the pro forma results provide useful information to investors by excluding certain expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. The pro forma measures are included to provide investors and management with an alternative method for assessing our operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of our ongoing operations and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between quarters. Further, these pro forma results are one of the primary indicators management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods. In addition, since we have historically reported pro forma results to the investment community, we believe the inclusion of pro forma numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the rate of growth of the semiconductor industry, improvements in factory utilization rates, the prospect of a recovery in the semiconductor industry, Artisan's future royalty results and the rate of growth of Artisan's business through 2004. These statements are subject to various risk factors including, without limitation, the continued demand for semiconductors including Artisan's products and the production of those semiconductors in volume; delays in the design process or delays in a customer's project that use Artisan's products; the rapid pace of technological development; Artisan's ability to negotiate, structure, monitor and enforce agreements for the determination and payment of royalties; and the continuation of the worldwide slowdown in economic activity, as well as continued weakness in businesses' capital expenditures on technology. We refer you also to the documents that Artisan files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in particular the section entitled "Factors Affecting Future Operating Results" in Artisan's annual report on Form 10-K and its quarterly reports on Forms 10-Q.
