Quarterly Financial Summary
- Gross margin was 36 percent in Q3 2013.
- Gross margin decreased sequentially. Q3 2013 gross margin included a $19 million benefit, approximately 1 percentage point, from the sale of inventory that had been previously reserved in Q3 2012 as compared to a similar $11 million benefit, approximately 1 percentage point, in Q2 2013.
- Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance, including long-term marketable securities, was $1.2 billion at the end of the quarter, slightly above our targeted optimal level of $1.1 billion.
- Computing Solutions segment revenue decreased 6 percent sequentially and decreased 15 percent year-over-year. The sequential and year-over-year declines were due to decreased notebook and chipset unit shipments, partially offset by an increase in desktop unit shipments.
- Operating income was $22 million, compared with operating income of $2 million in Q2 2013 and an operating loss of $114 million in Q3 2012. The Q3 2012 operating loss included an inventory write-down of approximately $100 million primarily consisting of first generation A-Series accelerated processing units (APUs).
- Microprocessor Average Selling Price (ASP) was flat sequentially and decreased year-over-year.
- Graphics and Visual Solutions (GVS) is comprised of graphics processing units (GPUs), including professional graphics, as well as semi-custom products and development and game console royalties.
- GVS segment revenue increased 110 percent sequentially and increased 96 percent year-over-year driven largely by our semi-custom business. GPU revenue declined sequentially and year-over-year. In the third quarter customers began transitioning to our new products late in the quarter.
- Operating income was $79 million compared with breakeven in Q2 2013 and $18 million in Q3 2012.
- GPU ASP decreased sequentially and year-over-year.

* The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of its
performance. Adjusted EBITDA for the Company is determined by adjusting
operating income (loss) for depreciation and amortization, employee stock-
based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets.
In addition, the Company also included the following adjustments for the
applicable period: for all periods presented, the Company also included an
adjustment for net restructuring and other special charges (gains); and for
nine months ended September 29, 2012, the Company also included adjustments
for the limited waiver of exclusivity from GLOBALFOUNDRIES, legal
settlement with a third party and costs related to the acquisition of
SeaMicro, Inc. 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.
** The Company also presents non-GAAP free cash flow in the earnings release
as a supplemental measure of its performance. Non-GAAP free cash flow is
determined by adjusting GAAP net cash provided by (used in) operating
activities for capital expenditures. The Company calculates and
communicates non-GAAP 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 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 free cash flow as an alternative to GAAP liquidity
measures of cash flows from operating activities. The Company has provided
reconciliations within the press release and financial schedules of these
non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measures.
