AMD Reports Fourth Quarter and Annual Results

- Fourth Quarter Microprocessor Unit Shipments Set New Record, Increasing 26 Percent Year-Over-Year and 19 Percent Sequentially - - Fourth Quarter Mobile Processor Revenue Increased 85 Percent Year-Over-Year and 41 Percent Sequentially -

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

AMD (NYSE:AMD) today reported financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2006. As a result of AMD's acquisition of ATI, fourth quarter financial results include the results of the former ATI operations(1) beginning October 25, 2006. Because comparison of fourth quarter consolidated financial results to previous periods do not correlate directly, AMD has provided non-GAAP financial measures for AMD's historical business (pre-acquisition AMD). Management believes this non-GAAP presentation will aid investors by presenting current and historical results in a form that makes it easier to compare current period results with historical results.

AMD reported fourth quarter 2006 revenue of $1.77 billion, an operating loss of $527 million, and a net loss of $574 million, or $1.08 per share. These results include acquisition-related and integration charges of $550 million, or $1.04 per share, and $27 million of employee stock-based compensation expense, or $0.05 per share.

"We believe we once again gained microprocessor unit share in the quarter, as we did in the year, by continuing to execute against our customer acquisition strategy and our product, technology and manufacturing plans," said Robert J. Rivet, AMD's chief financial officer.

Fourth quarter 2006 gross margin was 40 percent, excluding acquisition-related charges and stock-based compensation expense for the applicable periods, compared to 52 percent in the third quarter of 2006 and 57 percent in the fourth quarter of 2005(2). The decrease from the prior quarter was due largely to significantly lower server processor average selling prices (ASPs) and the inclusion of the former ATI operations.

Computation Products

Fourth quarter microprocessor unit shipments grew 26 percent year-over-year and 19 percent sequentially as customers continued leveraging AMD solutions to provide greater choice to the market.

Fourth quarter demand for AMD mobile processors was especially strong, resulting in record unit shipments and revenue. Mobile processor unit shipments and revenue both increased 41 percent quarter-over-quarter. Year-over-year, mobile processor unit shipments increased 76 percent and revenue increased 85 percent. Desktop processor revenue was also strong in the quarter, led by demand for AMD Athlon(TM) 64 X2 dual-core processors. Overall server processor unit shipments were essentially flat compared to the third quarter and ASPs were down significantly.

AMD commenced first revenue shipments of 65nm processors in December as planned.

Graphics and Chipsets, and Consumer Electronics Segments

Revenue from Graphics and Chipsets, and Consumer Electronics segments for the period beginning October 25, 2006, was $398 million. Solid demand for chipsets contributed to Graphics and Chipsets segment revenue of $278 million. Revenue of $120 million for the Consumer Electronics segment was driven by demand for handheld products and game console royalties.

-- AMD Opteron processor-based systems remained the fastest growing
   platform on the TOP500 Supercomputing list. There are 113 AMD
   Opteron processor-based systems on the list, including three of the
   top 10, as reported by the TOP500 Organization.

Cautionary Statement

This release contains forward-looking statements concerning revenue for the first quarter of 2007 and anticipated product functionality, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements in this release involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the company's current expectations. Risks include the possibility that Intel Corporation's pricing, marketing programs, product bundling, new product introductions or other activities targeting the company's business will prevent attainment of the company's current revenue plans; demand for computers and consumer electronics products and, in turn, demand for the company's products will be lower than currently expected; global business and economic conditions will worsen, resulting in lower than currently expected revenue in the first quarter of 2007 and beyond; the company will not achieve its current product and technology introduction schedules; the company will require additional capital and will not be able to raise sufficient capital, on favorable terms or at all; the company will not be able to obtain sufficient manufacturing capacity or components to meet demand for its products; solutions providers will not provide the infrastructure to support the company's AMD64 technology in a timely fashion; competitors, customers and suppliers of AMD may take actions that will negate the anticipated benefits of AMD's acquisition of ATI; revenue, cost savings, growth prospects and other synergies expected from the acquisition of ATI will not be fully realized or will take longer to realize than expected; the acquisition will not be accretive in the timeframe expected; there will be delays associated with integrating the companies; and unfavorable results of operations of Spansion will adversely impact the company's results of operations. We urge investors to review in detail the risks and uncertainties in the company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including but not limited to the Annual Report on From 10-K for the year ended December 25, 2005 and AMD's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 1, 2006.
