Safe Harbor Statement Certain statements and information in this presentation are not based on historical facts and constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning a pplicable securities laws (“forward-looking statements”) including statements and information relating to our financial guidance summary for Q 3 2011 and fiscal year 2011, our guidance drivers for 2011 and our business outlook for 2011. Forward-looking statements are provided to help you understand our views of our short and longer term prospects. We caution you that forward-looking statements may not be appropriate for other purposes. We will not update or revise our forward-looking statements unless we are required to do so by securities laws. Forward-looking statements: ● typically include words about the future, such as: “look forward to”, “outlook”, “may”, “intend”, “believe”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “goals”, “targets”, “forecasts”, “well positioned for”, “trending” and “will continue to”. ● are not promises or guarantees of future performance. They represent our current views and may change significantly; ● are based on a number of material assumptions, including those listed below, which could prove to be significantly incorrect : § Our ability to develop, manufacture and sell new products and services that meet the needs of our customers and gain commercial acceptance; § Our ability to continue to sell our products and services in the expected quantities at the expected prices and expected times; § Expected transition period to our 4 G products; § Expected cost of goods sold; § Expected component supply constraints; § Our ability to “win” new business; § That wireless network operators will deploy next generation networks when expected; § Our operations are not adversely disrupted by component shortages or other development, operating or regulatory risks; and § Expected tax rates and foreign exchange rates. ● are subject to substantial known and unknown material risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause our actual results, achievements and developments in our business to differ significantly from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the following factors, most of which are discussed in greater detail. These risk factors and others are discussed in our Annual Information Form and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which may be found on SEDAR at www. sedar. com and on EDGAR at www. sec. gov and in our other regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States and the Provincial Securities Commissions in Canada. § Actual sales volumes or prices for our products and services may be lower than we expect for any reason including, without limitation, the continuing uncertain economic conditions, price and product competition, different product mix, the loss of any of our significant customers, competition from new or established wireless communication companies; § The cost of products sold may be higher than planned or necessary component supplies may not be available, are delayed or are not available on commercially reasonable terms; § We may be unable to enforce our intellectual property rights or may be subject to litigation that has an adverse outcome; § The development and timing of the introduction of our new products may be later than we expect or may be indefinitely delayed. § Transition periods associated with the migration to new technologies may be longer than we expect. USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This presentation contains references to certain non-GAAP financial measures and should be viewed in conjunction with our press release and supplementary information on our website (www. sierrawireless. com), which present a complete reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP results. © Sierra Wireless 2011 Page 2
