Further, the Company believes it is useful for investors to understand how the expenses associated with the application of FASB ASC No.&nbsp;718 are reflected on its statements of income. The non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, and are intended to provide additional insight into the Company&#8217;s operations that, when viewed with its GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, offer a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company&#8217;s business. The non-GAAP presentation should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company&#8217;s reported GAAP results.</FONT></P>

ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
On January 29, 2015, DSP Group, Inc. (the "Company") announced its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014. A copy of the press release, dated January 29, 2015, is attached and filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1. This information, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to such filing.
In addition to the disclosure of financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), the press release also included non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share, for the quarters and years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 that excluded (a) for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets of $382,000
associated with the acquisition of the Cordless and VoIP Terminals business of NXP B.V. (the "CIPT Acquisition") and the acquisition of BoneTone Communications Ltd. (the "BoneTone Acquisition"); equity-based compensation expenses of $1,160,000; amortization of deferred tax liability related to intangible assets acquired in connection with the BoneTone Acquisition in the amount of $49,000; elimination of valuation allowance of deferred tax assets and tax advances in the amount of $2,061,000; and a tax benefit of $858,000 resulting from the reversal of income tax contingency reserve; (b)
for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets of $418,000 associated with the CIPT Acquisition and the BoneTone Acquisition; equity-based compensation expenses of $1,026,000; and amortization of deferred tax liability related to intangible assets acquired in connection with the BoneTone Acquisition in the amount of $96,000; (c)
for the year ended December 31, 2014, the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets of $1,573,000 associated with the CIPT Acquisition and the BoneTone Acquisition; equity-based compensation expenses of $5,359,000; amortization of deferred tax liability related to intangible assets acquired in connection with the BoneTone Acquisition in the amount of $339,000; elimination of valuation allowance of deferred tax assets and tax advances in the amount of $2,061,000 and a tax benefit of $858,000 resulting from the reversal of income tax contingency reserve; and (d)
for the year ended December 31, 2013, the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets of $1,672,000 associated with the CIPT Acquisition and the BoneTone Acquisition; equity-based compensation expenses of $4,159,000; amortization of deferred tax liability related to intangible assets acquired in connection with the BoneTone Acquisition in the amount of $385,000; and proxy contest-related expenses of $1,403,000
.
The Company believes that the non-GAAP presentation in the press release is useful to investors in analyzing the results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 because the exclusion of such expense may provide a more meaningful analysis of the Company's core operating results. Further, the Company believes it is useful for investors to understand how the expenses associated with the application of FASB ASC No. 718 are reflected on its statements of income. The non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, and are intended to provide additional insight into the Company's operations that, when viewed with its GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, offer a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's business. The non-GAAP presentation should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company's reported GAAP results.
