ITEM 2.02.   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

On October 23, 2006, DSP Group, Inc. (the “Company”) announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. A copy of the press release, dated October 23, 2006, is attached and filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1. This information, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to such filing.

In addition to the disclosure of financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), the press release also included non-GAAP (pro forma) net income and diluted earnings per share (EPS) figures for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 that excluded the expenses associated with the application of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 123R.

The Company believes that the pro forma presentation in the press release is useful to investors in analyzing the results for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 because the pro forma presentation excluded non-cash equity-based compensation expenses relating to SFAS 123R that management does not consider meaningful for purposes of analyzing the Company’s core operating results and making budget-planning decisions. In addition, the Company’s financial results for the third quarter of 2005 did not include non-cash equity-based compensation expenses; therefore the non-GAAP presentation facilitates comparison of operating results between comparative reporting periods. Further, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand how the expenses associated with the application of SFAS 123R are reflected on its statements of income.
