Ceva Inc 's Comment on Competitors and Industry Peers
The markets in which we operate are intensely competitive. They are subject to
rapid change and are significantly affected by new product introductions. We compete
with other suppliers of licensed signal processing IPs. We believe that the principal
competitive elements in our field are signal processing IP performance, overall
chip cost, power consumption, flexibility, reliability, communication and multimedia
software and algorithms availability, design cycle time, tool chain, customer
support, financial strength, name recognition and reputation. We believe that
we compete effectively in each of these areas, but can offer no assurance that
we will have the financial resources, technical expertise, and marketing or support
capabilities to compete successfully in the future.
The markets in which we compete are dominated by large, highly competent semiconductor
companies that have significant brand recognition, a large installed base and
a large network of support and field application engineers. We face direct and
indirect competition from:
IP vendors that offer programmable or configurable DSP cores;
IP vendors that offer vision processing units for computer vision
applications;
IP vendors that offer neural network processing units for AI applications;
IP vendors that offer voice software packages, including beamforming,
direction of arrival and echo cancellation;
IP vendors that offer Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity IPs;
IP vendors that offer hardware-based DSP implementation as opposed
to software-based DSP, which is our specialization; and
internal design groups of large chip companies or OEMs that develop
proprietary signal processing IP cores or engines for their own application-specific
chipsets.
We face direct competition in the DSP and configurable core space mainly from
Verisilicon, Cadence and Synopsys, which licenses DSP cores in addition to their
respective semiconductor and EDA businesses. In AI processors, we face direct
competition from EDA players in addition to a host of companies offering AI
cores and accelerators such as Digital Media Professionals, (DMP), Imagination,
AImotive, Cambricon and Graphcore. In the short range wireless space, we face
direct competition from Arm Limited, Imagination Technologies, Mindtree and
STMicroelectronics (previously ST Ericsson).
In recent years, we also have faced competition from companies that offer Central
Processor Unit (CPU) intellectual property. These companies’ products
are used for host functions in various applications, such as in mobile and home
entertainment products. These applications typically also incorporate a programmable
DSP or neural network accelerator that is responsible for communication and
video/audio/voice-related tasks, neural network or in some cases connectivity
capabilities. CPU companies, such as Arm Limited, Cadence, Imagination
Technologies and Synopsys have added DSP acceleration, CNN acceleration and
/or connectivity solutions and make use of it to provide platform solutions
in the areas of baseband, video, imaging, vision, AI, audio and connectivity.
With respect to certain large potential customers, we also compete with internal
engineering teams, which may design programmable signal processing IP core products
in-house. Companies such as Mediatek, Qualcomm, Samsung, Huawei and STMicroelectronics
license our designs for some applications and use their own proprietary cores
for other applications. These companies also may choose to license their proprietary
signal processing IP cores to third parties and, as a result, become direct
competitors.
Aside from the in-house research and development groups, we do not compete
with any individual company across the range of our market offerings. Within
particular market segments, however, we do face competition to a greater or
lesser extent from other industry participants. For example, in the following
specific areas we compete with the companies indicated:
in the digital embedded imaging and vision market – Arm Limited,
Synopsys, Cadence and Videantis, as well as GPU IP providers such as Arm Limited,
Imagination Technologies and Verisilicon; and
in audio and voice applications market – Arm Limited, Cadence,
Synopsys and Verisilicon.
