INPHI ANNOUNCES VOTING RESULTS FOR ANNUAL

MEETING AND ADJOURNMENT WITH RESPECT TO ADVISORY VOTE TO

APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Santa Clara, CA —May 30, 2014 —Inphi Corporation (NYSE: IPHI) held its 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) yesterday. The proposals considered at the Annual Meeting are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 25, 2014.

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders elected Nicholas E. Brathwaite, David Liddle and Bruce McWilliams as Class I Directors of Inphi (Proposal 1) and ratified the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accountants of the Company (Proposal 3).

The Company adjourned the Annual Meeting to allow for additional time for stockholders to vote, on an advisory basis, on the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers (Proposal 2) as reported in the proxy statement. The Annual Meeting will reconvene on June 2, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific time at the offices of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, located at 2550 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, CA 94304 for the purpose of holding a stockholder vote on Proposal 2.

During the period of the adjournment, Inphi Corporation will continue to solicit proxies from its stockholders with respect to Proposal 2. Stockholders who have already voted need not take any action on the proposal, although they may change their vote for the proposal by executing a new proxy, revoking a previously given proxy, in the manner set forth in Inphi’s proxy statement.

Inphi Corporation encourages all stockholders who have not yet voted on Proposal 2 to do so before June 2, 2014. If stockholders need any assistance in voting their shares, please contact our proxy solicitor, MacKenzie Partners, Inc.
