Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

Skyworks Solutions, Inc. ("Skyworks" or the "Company") intends to affirm its outlook for the second fiscal quarter while at the Thomas Weisel Partners Technology Conference today at 10:20 AM Pacific Time. Skyworks anticipates that handset seasonality will be largely offset by growth from its Linear Products portfolio and multimode handset content gains in the second fiscal quarter. Accordingly, the Company anticipates delivering $200 million in revenue and diluted earnings per share of $0.15 on a non-GAAP basis in the seasonally low March quarter.

Estimated non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excludes approximately $5 million of FASB Statement No. 123(R)-related expenses.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Skyworks Solutions, Inc. uses non-GAAP financial measures of operating results, net income and earnings per share, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain charges and non-recurring items. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the user's overall understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects for the future. Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain charges and non-recurring items that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operations and economic performance. Additionally, since we have historically reported non-GAAP results to the investment community, the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency in our financial reporting. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures are one of the primary indicators management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The information in Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
