Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 20, 2010, Cohu, Inc. (the Company) issued a press release regarding its financial
results for the third fiscal quarter ended September 25, 2010. The Companys press release is
attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
The information in this Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached
hereto 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, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
In addition to financial results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP), the earnings press release also contains financial information determined by
methods other than in accordance with GAAP. The Companys management uses these non-GAAP measures
in their analysis of the Companys performance. These non-GAAP financial measures adjust the
Companys actual results prepared under GAAP to exclude charges and the related income tax effect
for share-based compensation, the amortization of acquired intangible assets, inventory step-up
adjustments and the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. These non-GAAP measures are not meant
as a substitute for GAAP, but are included solely for informational and comparative purposes. The
Companys management believes that this information can assist investors in evaluating the
Companys operational trends, financial performance, and cash generating capacity. Management
believes these non-GAAP measures allow investors to evaluate the Companys financial performance
using some of the same measures as management. These disclosures should not be viewed as a
substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily
comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
