SAN JOSE, Calif - October 26, 2004 - CEVA Inc. (NASDAQ: CEVA;
LSE: CVA), the leading licensor of digital signal processor (DSP) cores
and communications solutions to the semiconductor industry, today
announced financial results for the third quarter of 2004, ended September
30, 2004.

Total revenue for the third quarter 2004 was $9.7 million, a slight
increase from the $9.6 million reported in the second quarter 2004 and a
4% increase compared to $9.3 million in the third quarter 2003. Third
quarter licensing revenue of $6.9 million was similar to the 2004 second

Third quarter 2004 royalty revenue was $1.6 million, up 24% from $1.3
million reported in the second quarter 2004 and a 33% rise from the $1.2
million in the third quarter 2003.

Strong Unit Royalty Growth

Shipped units by licensees increased 30% to 30.5 million in the third
quarter 2004 compared to 23 million shipped in the second quarter 2004 and
a 110% increase from 14.5 million units shipped in the third quarter
2003.

Increasing Profitability

Third quarter gross margin was 88% compared with 85% in the 2004 second
quarter and 85% in the third quarter 2003. Third quarter net income
increased 13% to $560,000, or $0.03 per share compared with second quarter
2004 net income of $494,000, or $0.027 per share. The Company recorded a
net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.063 net loss per share in the third
quarter 2003.

Solid Balance Sheet

The Company generated $0.5 million of operating cash flow during the
quarter. At September 30, 2004, cash equivalents and marketable securities
were $57.8 million.

"CEVA's strong end-market growth drivers - wireless and consumer
multimedia - resulted in a record 30 million units shipped in the third
quarter with CEVA technology embedded as our licensees continue to thrive
in the DSP industry," said Chet Silvestri, President and CEO of CEVA.
"Although it is traditionally our weakest quarter, CEVA's revenue, gross
margin and net income all recorded sequential improvements. Furthermore,
our strong cash position gives us the flexibility to pursue internal and
external growth initiatives to further extend our position as the leading
licensor of DSP technology."

During the third quarter, CEVA completed six new licensing agreements
including another licensee for CEVA-X and good adoption of CEVA's
Serial-ATA solutions. In addition, a major Japanese wireless player was
the first to license CEVA's Mobile Media solution following the launch of
the technology in the quarter.

Additionally, further industry endorsement for CEVA technologies was
underscored in the third quarter with the announcements that Atmel adopted
CEVA for storage solutions, Zoran for DVD systems, Japan Radio Consortium
for radio solutions, and Nemerix for location solutions.

"Notwithstanding the more moderate growth expectations for the
semiconductor sector, our product portfolio of cores, solutions and
services positions us well to continue our momentum of revenue and profit
growth," continued Chet Silvestri.
