Dialog Semiconductor has reported sales of Eur 31.6 million for the third quarter of 2004, a sequential increase of 4% over Q2 2004, and a 36% increase compared with Eur 23.2 million for Q3 of 2003

Net income in Q3 2004 was Eur 214,000 - a significant improvement over the net loss of Eur 1.5 million in Q3 of 2003. Based on the year-to-date revenues of Eur 85 million compared with Eur 65.3 million for the same period in 2003, the company has maintained 30% growth. A significant development during the quarter was the announcement of the company's collaboration with Carl Zeiss to jointly develop very small but high quality camera modules for next-generation camera phones.

In addition, Dialog Semiconductor - in partnership with a Japanese display company - is now also supplying colour LCD driver ICs for CDMA phones developed for the US market.

Roland Pudelko, CEO and President said: "We are pleased with the performance during the first nine months, which is in line with our forecast to meet revenue growth of about 30%".

"We see positive signs for next year due to the continued growth in demand for smartphones and camera phones, as illustrated by data from industry analysts suggesting growth in the number of new handsets produced each year".

He added: "We are making further inroads with more of the major Far Eastern manufacturers of cellular handsets".

"As phones become more and more complex the critical issues facing our customers relate to conserving battery power while providing users with the most sophisticated multimedia features ever available".

"This is where we have continued to excel in providing our customers with the most integrated, highly complex power management devices as well as using our imaging and power management technology in camera phones and multiple display handsets and devices".
