We delivered strong year-over-year performance in each of our market segments with record revenue and significantly improved profitability. We also benefited from solid end market demand, enabling us to optimize our product mix. Our fourth quarter results demonstrated the strength of our market diversification strategy, expanding product portfolio, deepening customer relationships and growing production scale. Our strong fourth quarter performance capped an outstanding fiscal year 2021, where we delivered 41% revenue growth year-over-year, expanded both gross margins and operating margins, and increased net income substantially. Importantly, we had previously set a target of $600 million in annual revenue for calendar year 2021, and I am pleased to report that we achieved $657 million in fiscal year 2021 and successfully surpassed that target ahead of plan."

Dr. Chang continued, "As we enter fiscal year 2022, there are plenty of opportunities and much work to be done to continue to grow and scale our business. I am confident that we have the right leadership and the right products in place to capitalize on these opportunities. Our mission to be a trusted technology partner and a global supplier of a broad portfolio of power semiconductors remains on track. Looking ahead, our goal is to grow our annual revenue to $1 billion in the next few years.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. GAAP, we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures for our historical performance, including non-GAAP gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, earnings per share attributable to AOS, diluted earnings per share ("EPS") and EBITDAS. These supplemental measures exclude, among other items, share-based compensation expenses, legal and profession fees related to government investigation, amortization of purchased intangible, and impairment of privately-held investment, as well as production ramp up costs related to the JV Company. We also disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures in our guidance for the next quarter, including non-GAAP gross margin, operating expenses and loss attributable to noncontrolling interest. We believe that these historical and forecast non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items and expenses that are not indicative of our core operating results or do not reflect our normal business operations. In addition, our management uses non-GAAP measures to compare our performance relative to forecasts and to benchmark our performance externally against competitors. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in that such non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the terms used in this press release, such as non-GAAP net income (loss) or non-GAAP operating expenses, do not have a standardized meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to other companies. In addition, we included amount of income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments in the non-GAAP net income of reconciliation table for all periods presented as the management believes that such non-GAAP presentation provides useful information to investors, even though the amounts are not significant. We seek to compensate for the limitation of our non-GAAP presentation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures both in the text in this press release and in the tables attached hereto. Investors are encouraged to review the related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.
