Other Events

On November 4, 2010, Cirrus Logic, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it had completed the repurchase of approximately 1.5 million shares of the Company’s stock, at an average price of $12.96, pursuant to the $20 million share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors in January 2009.  In addition, the Company announced that the Cirrus Logic Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to an additional $80 million. The repurchases will be funded from existing cash and will be effected from time to time in accordance with applicable securities laws through the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.  The timing of the repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market and economic conditions, and other corporate considerations.  The program does not have an expiration date, does not obligate the Company to repurchase any particular amount of common stock, and may be modified or suspended at any time at the Company's discretion.

A copy of the press release announcing the share repurchase program is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
