LIVERMORE, Calif. — February 4, 2015 —FormFactor, Inc. (Nasdaq: FORM) today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 that ended on December 27, 2014. Quarterly revenues were $71.3 million, down 4% from $73.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, and up 47% from $48.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.
 
For fiscal 2014, FormFactor posted revenue of $268.5 million, up 16% from $231.5 million in fiscal 2013.
 
On a GAAP basis, net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 was $(1.9) million, or $(0.03) per fully-diluted share, compared to a net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2014 of $(0.3) million, or $0.00 per fully-diluted share, and a net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 of $(18.8) million, or $(0.34) per fully-diluted share.
