Quarterly Summary
-- Gross margin was 43 percent.
-- Non-GAAP gross margin was 45 percent, flat sequentially.
-- Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance at the end of
the quarter was $1.75 billion.
-- Computing Solutions segment revenue decreased 2 percent sequentially
and increased 3 percent year-over-year. The sequential decrease was
driven primarily by lower average selling price (ASP) partially offset
by higher desktop microprocessor sales. The year-over-year increase
was primarily driven by strong microprocessor unit sales in the
channel.
-- Operating income was $100 million, compared with $91 million in
Q410 and $146 million in Q110.
-- Microprocessor ASP decreased sequentially and year-over-year.
-- AMD commenced revenue shipments of AMD's first Fusion APU for
mainstream notebooks (codenamed "Llano") that combines
discrete-class graphics capabilities, personal supercomputing
performance and AMD AllDay(TM) power.
-- Acer, Asus, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, Lenovo, MSI, Sony and Toshiba
shipped sleek new thin-and-light notebooks based on AMD's
low-power APUs capable of delivering high definition visual
experiences and extended battery life.
-- More than 50 applications from software companies including Adobe,
ArcSoft, Corel, CyberLink and Microsoft take advantage of the
incredible compute power found in AMD's APUs and GPUs to
dramatically improve application performance and power efficiency.
-- AMD launched the world's first APU specifically designed for
embedded systems with a record number of embedded partners for the
company. Fujitsu, Kontron, Quixant and Congatec announced
APU-based solutions for graphics-intensive markets like digital
signage, Internet-ready set top boxes, casino gaming machines and
point-of-sale kiosks. Acer, Cray, Dell, HP, SGI and other server
manufacturers launched new or updated systems based on five newly
introduced AMD Opteron(TM) 6100 series processors.
-- In the high performance computing market (HPC), AMD Opteron-based
solutions continue to gain traction based on their greater
scalability. New customer wins include Lockheed Martin's cluster
for the US Department of Defense, and the University of Sao
Paulo's cluster to enable advanced scientific astronomical
research.
-- AMD expanded its enthusiast desktop offerings with the
introduction of its fastest four-core processor, the AMD
Phenom(TM) II X4 975 Black Edition.
-- Graphics segment revenue decreased 3 percent sequentially and was flat
year-over-year. The sequential decrease was driven primarily by a
seasonal decline in royalties received in connection with the sale of
game console systems.
-- Operating income was $19 million, compared with $68 million in
Q410 and $47 million in Q110.
-- GPU ASP decreased sequentially and year-over-year.
-- AMD maintained its graphics performance leadership position with
the launch of the world's fastest graphics card, the AMD
Radeon(TM) HD 6990.
-- Apple refreshed its Macbook Pro line-up with the new AMD Radeon HD
6490M and HD 6750M graphics chips. AMD now provides discrete
graphics solutions across Apple's iMac and Macbook Pro product
lines.
-- Strong industry adoption of AMD's mobile graphics continued, as HP
and Dell launched new designs powered by the new AMD Radeon(TM)
HD6000M family of graphics processors.

in turn, demand for the company's products will be lower than
currently expected; customers stop buying the company's products or
materially reduce their demand for its products; the company will
require additional funding and may not be able to raise funds on
favorable terms or at all; there will be unexpected variations in
market growth and demand for the company's products and technologies
in light of the product mix that it may have available at any
particular time or a decline in demand; and the company will be
unable to maintain the level of investment in research and
development that is required to remain competitive. Investors are
urged to review in detail the risks and uncertainties in the
company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including but

* Starting with the quarter ended December 26, 2009, the Company
presented "Adjusted EBITDA" as a supplemental measure of its
performance. Adjusted EBITDA for the Company was determined by
adjusting operating income (loss) for depreciation and amortization,
employee stock-based compensation expense and amortization of
acquired intangible assets. In addition, for the first quarter of
2011, the Company included an adjustment related to a payment to
GLOBALFOUNDRIES and a legal settlement with a third party; and for
the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company included an adjustment
related to its legal settlement with a third party. The Company
calculates and communicates Adjusted EBITDA in the financial schedules
because the Company's management believes it is of importance to
investors and lenders in relation to its overall capital structure
and its ability to borrow additional funds. In addition, the Company
presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes this measure assists
investors in comparing its performance across reporting periods on a
consistent basis by excluding items that the Company does not believe
are indicative of its core operating performance. The Company's
calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may or may not be consistent with the
calculation of this measure by other companies in the same industry.
Investors should not view Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to the
GAAP operating measure of operating income (loss) or GAAP liquidity
measures of cash flows from operating, investing and financing
activities. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account
changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and
income taxes that can affect cash flows.
** Starting in the first quarter of 2010, the Company presents
non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow as a supplemental measure of its
performance. In 2008 and 2009 the Company and certain of its
subsidiaries (collectively, the "AMD Parties") entered into supplier
agreements with IBM Credit LLC and certain of its subsidiaries,
(collectively, the "IBM Parties"). Pursuant to these supplier
agreements, the AMD Parties sold to the IBM Parties invoices of
selected distributor customers. Because the Company does not
recognize revenue until its distributors sell its products to their
customers, under U.S. GAAP, the Company classifies funds received
from the IBM Parties as debt on the balance sheet. Moreover, for cash
flow purposes, these funds are classified as cash flows from
financing activities. When a distributor pays the applicable
IBM Party, the Company reduces the distributor's accounts receivable
and the corresponding debt resulting in a non-cash accounting entry.
Because the Company does not receive the cash from the distributor
to reduce the accounts receivable, the distributor's payment is never
reflected in the Company's cash flows from operating activities.
Non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow for the Company was determined by
adjusting GAAP net cash provided by (used in) operating activities
by adding the distributors' payments to the IBM Parties to GAAP net
cash provided by (used in) operating activities. This amount is then
further adjusted by subtracting capital expenditures. Generally,
under U.S. GAAP, the reduction in accounts receivable is assumed
to be a source of operating cash flows. Therefore, the Company
believes that treating the payments from its distributor customers
to the IBM Parties as if the Company actually received the cash from
the distributor and then used that cash to pay down the debt is more
reflective of the economic substance of the transaction. On February
11, 2011, the Company terminated its supplier agreements with the
IBM Parties. The Company calculates and communicates non-GAAP
adjusted free cash flow in the financial schedules because the
Company's management believes it is of importance to investors to
understand the nature of these cash flows. The Company's calculation
of non-GAAP Adjusted free cash flow may or may not be consistent with
the calculation of this measure by other companies in the same
industry. Investors should not view non-GAAP Adjusted Free Cash Flow
as an alternative to GAAP liquidity measures of cash flows from
operating or financing activities.
