Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 were $1.326 billion, down 40.6% from net sales of $2.233 billion in the prior year's fourth fiscal quarter.
GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was $154.7 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, down from GAAP net income of $604.0 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, in the prior year's fourth fiscal quarter. For the fourth quarters of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, GAAP net income was adversely impacted by amortization of acquired intangible assets associated with our previous acquisitions.
Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was $310.3 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, down from non-GAAP net income of $907.8 million, or $1.64 per diluted share, in the prior year's fourth fiscal quarter. For the fourth quarters of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, our non-GAAP results exclude the effect of share-based compensation, other manufacturing adjustments, expenses related to our acquisition activities (including intangible asset amortization, severance, and other restructuring costs, and legal and other general and administrative expenses associated with acquisitions including legal fees and expenses for litigation and investigations related to our Microsemi acquisition), professional services associated with certain legal matters, and losses on the settlement of debt. For the fourth quarters of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, our non-GAAP income tax expense is presented based on projected cash taxes for the applicable fiscal year, excluding transition tax payments under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. A reconciliation of our non-GAAP and GAAP results is included in this press release.
Net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 were $7.634 billion, a decrease of 9.5% from net sales of $8.439 billion in the prior fiscal year.
GAAP net income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 was $1.907 billion, or $3.48 per diluted share, a decrease of 14.8% from net income of $2.238 billion, or $4.02 per diluted share in the prior fiscal year. Fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, GAAP net income was significantly adversely impacted by amortization of acquired intangible assets associated with our previous acquisitions and loss on debt settlement associated with our debt refinancing activities.

Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 were $4.92, a decrease of 18.3% from the $6.02 per diluted share in the prior fiscal year. See the "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this release.
Microchip announced today that its Board of Directors declared a record quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of 45.2 cents per share, up 18.0% from the year ago quarter. The quarterly dividend is payable on June 5, 2024 to stockholders of record on May 22, 2024.
"We experienced a major inventory correction in fiscal 2024, leading to a 9.5% decline in revenue to $7.6 billion. Despite this, our resilient operating model and rapid adjustment to the adverse business environment enabled us to navigate these challenges to achieve a non-GAAP operating margin of 43.9%," said Ganesh Moorthy, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We remained committed to our capital return program, returning $1.89 billion through dividends and share buybacks during fiscal 2024, up 15.4% from the prior year, and we are tracking towards achieving our goal of returning 100% of adjusted free cash flow to shareholders by the current fiscal year-end."
Mr. Moorthy added, "We believe we are under shipping to end market demand, as customers and channel partners continued to reduce inventory. This situation has required us to implement ongoing austerity measures, including taking actions to reduce factory utilization, that will persist into the June quarter. Despite these challenges, our commitment to maintaining our competitive edge and positioning ourselves for future revenue growth remains steadfast. We continue to focus on innovation, as demonstrated by the significant product announcements and two tactical acquisitions we made during the June quarter. These initiatives aim to expand our product portfolio and reinforce our leadership across the diverse end markets we serve, helping to ensure that we are well-prepared to capitalize on opportunities when market conditions improve."
Eric Bjornholt, Microchip's Chief Financial Officer, said, "Our fourth quarter performance reflects our commitment to operational efficiency and disciplined execution, allowing us to deliver in-line results in a challenging environment. We continued to work on optimizing our capital structure by issuing $1 billion in senior notes due in 2029 at an interest rate of 5.05%. During fiscal year 2024, we reduced gross debt by $447.4 million while at the same time significantly increasing our capital returns to our shareholders. We remain committed to further enhancing our capital structure in fiscal 2025 as additional portions of our outstanding debt mature."
Mr. Moorthy concluded, "As we enter fiscal 2025, we see early signs of demand stabilization but are experiencing low business visibility due to our short lead times and the continued macro uncertainty. We anticipate June quarter net sales between $1.22 billion and $1.26 billion. We believe that the June 2024 quarter marks the bottom of the cycle for Microchip and that our business will return to sequential revenue growth in the September 2024 quarter. Despite near-term challenges, we believe our solutions remain the engine of innovation for our target markets, and our focus on Total System Solutions and key megatrends continues to drive strong design win momentum. We remain committed to executing our

Microchip 3.0 strategic imperatives, which we believe will deliver sustained growth and provide substantial shareholder value."

(1) See the "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this release for information regarding our non-GAAP guidance.
(2) We are not able to estimate the amount of certain Special Charges and Other, net that may be incurred during the quarter ending June 30, 2024. Therefore, our estimate of GAAP operating expenses excludes certain amounts that may be recognized as Special Charges and Other, net in the quarter ending June 30, 2024.
(3) The forecast for GAAP tax expense excludes any unexpected tax events that may occur during the quarter, as these amounts cannot be forecasted.
(4) Represents the expected cash tax rate for fiscal 2025, excluding any transition tax payments associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
Capital expenditures for the quarter ending June 30, 2024 are expected to be between $60 million and $70 million. Capital expenditures for all of fiscal 2025 are expected to be about $175 million. We are selectively adding capital equipment to maintain, grow and operate our internal manufacturing capabilities to support the expected growth of our business.
Under the GAAP revenue recognition standard, we are required to recognize revenue when control of the product changes from us to a customer or distributor. We focus our sales and marketing efforts on creating demand for our products in the end markets we serve and not on moving inventory into our distribution network. We also manage our manufacturing and supply chain operations, including our distributor relationships, towards the goal of having our products available at the time and location the end customer desires.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Our non-GAAP adjustments, where applicable, include the effect of share-based compensation, other manufacturing adjustments, expenses related to our acquisition activities (including intangible asset amortization, severance, and other restructuring costs, and legal and other general and administrative expenses associated with acquisitions including legal fees and expenses for litigation and investigations related to our Microsemi acquisition), professional services associated with certain legal matters, and losses on the settlement of debt. For the fourth quarters of

fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, our non-GAAP income tax expense is presented based on projected cash taxes for the fiscal year, excluding transition tax payments under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
We are required to estimate the cost of certain forms of share-based compensation, including employee stock options, restricted stock units, and our employee stock purchase plan, and to record a commensurate expense in our income statement. Share-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is affected by the price of our stock at the date of grant. The price of our stock is affected by market forces that are difficult to predict and are not within the control of management. Our other non-GAAP adjustments are either non-cash expenses, unusual or infrequent items, or other expenses related to transactions. Management excludes all of these items from its internal operating forecasts and models.
We are using non-GAAP operating expenses in dollars, including non-GAAP research and development expenses and non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP other expense, net, and non-GAAP income tax rate, which exclude the items noted above, as applicable, to permit additional analysis of our performance.
Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they enhance the understanding of our historical financial performance and comparability between periods. Many of our investors have requested that we disclose this non-GAAP information because they believe it is useful in understanding our performance as it excludes non-cash and other charges that many investors feel may obscure our underlying operating results. Management uses non-GAAP measures to manage and assess the profitability of our business and for compensation purposes. We also use our non-GAAP results when developing and monitoring our budgets and spending. Our determination of these non-GAAP measures might not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies, and it should not be construed as a substitute for amounts determined in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations associated with using these non-GAAP measures, including that they exclude financial information that some may consider important in evaluating our performance. Management compensates for this by presenting information on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis for investors and providing reconciliations of the GAAP and non-GAAP results.
Generally, gross profit fluctuates over time, driven primarily by the mix of products sold and licensing revenue; variances in manufacturing yields; fixed cost absorption; wafer fab loading levels; costs of wafers from foundries; inventory reserves; pricing pressures in our non-proprietary product lines; and competitive and economic conditions. Operating expenses fluctuate over time, primarily due to net sales and profit levels.
Diluted Common Shares Outstanding can vary for, among other things, the trading price of our common stock, the exercise of options or vesting of restricted stock units, the potential for incremental dilutive shares from our convertible debentures (additional information regarding our share count is available in the investor relations section of our website under the heading "Supplemental Financial Information"), and repurchases or issuances of shares of our common stock. The diluted common shares outstanding presented in the guidance table above assumes an average Microchip stock price in the June

2024 quarter between $85 and $95 per share (however, we make no prediction as to what our actual share price will be for such period or any other period and we cannot estimate what our stock option exercise activity will be during the quarter).
