TUALATIN, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 26, 2007--Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ:PXLW), an innovative provider of powerful video and pixel processing technology for advanced televisions and digital projectors, reported today that Mike Yonker, Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary and Treasurer, will resign from Pixelworks, effective March 31, 2007. Until that date he will remain in his current capacity to help with the company's ongoing restructuring efforts and oversee the transition of his duties.

As part of its previously announced restructuring plans to reduce costs and refocus its product offerings, the company continues to consolidate key leadership responsibilities and related business functions into fewer operating sites primarily located in Shanghai and San Jose. Rather than relocate, Mr. Yonker chose to pursue other business opportunities in Oregon. Accordingly, the company has begun a search for a new CFO to reside in San Jose which will include internal and external candidates.

"As a valued member of our executive team for the past year, Mike has been a key contributor to our efforts to refocus and restructure Pixelworks' strategy and operations," said Hans Olsen, President and CEO of Pixelworks. "We sincerely thank Mike for his many contributions and wish him success in his new endeavor."
