BUSINESS REVIEW
+ GAAP and non-GAAP consolidated margins for the third quarter of 2016 were 37.9% and 40.5%, respectively. Margins were up from the second quarter of 2016 due to higher revenue, product mix and the Company's margin-enhancing initiatives. Excluding the Emerging Technologies Division (ETD), the core semiconductor non-GAAP margin was 40.6%, up from 38.1% in the second quarter. Fab utilization increased to 56% in the third quarter and is expected to increase through the fourth quarter of 2016 as production levels ramp to meet customer demand.
