AMD REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

SUNNYVALE, CA—APRIL 16, 2003—AMD (NYSE:AMD) today reported sales of $715 million and a net loss of $146 million for the quarter ended March 30, 2003. The net loss amounted to $0.42 per share.
First quarter sales declined by 21 percent from the first quarter of 2002 and increased by four percent from the fourth quarter of 2002.

“In a tough market environment and in a quarter that is typically seasonally down, we grew our revenue by four percent from the fourth quarter of 2002,” said Robert J. Rivet, chief financial officer. “We believe we gained market share in both our PC processor and Flash memory product lines. And we made significant operating improvements that better position us for a return to profitability.
“Our enhanced AMD Athlon™ processor portfolio, along with increased customer demand, led to a sequential increase of 11 percent in PC processor sales. And despite a seasonal weakening of the global market for flash memory solutions, the first quarter was our fourth consecutive quarter of revenue growth and record bit shipments.
“As projected, we reduced our operating expenses significantly compared to the fourth quarter of 2002. As a result of our improved cost structure, along with the increase in sales, EBITDA was a positive $84 million1 and our operating loss improved by more than $90 million1 in the first quarter as compared with our pro forma results of the fourth quarter 2002.”
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
PC processor sales of $468 million for the quarter increased by 11 percent from the $420 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2002. AMD showed a significant increase in both unit and dollar sales, based on record mobile shipments and increased penetration into emerging markets, led by China.
During the first quarter, AMD commenced production shipments of AMD Opteron™ processors for the server and workstation markets. The launch of the AMD Opteron processor family will occur in New York on April 22.
Also in the first quarter, AMD introduced several new processor offerings including the AMD Athlon XP processor 3000+, the highest performing desktop PC microprocessor. In addition, AMD introduced 12 new mobile processors including the first AMD Athlon processors targeted for thin-and-light notebooks. These are the first AMD Athlon processors targeted for thin-and-light notebooks.

AMD memory sales of $218 million were up for the fourth consecutive quarter, on increased unit sales driven by our product portfolio for the cellular phone market and continued demand for high-end, feature-rich phones.
AMD qualified production on 130 nanometer process technology in AMD’s Fab 25 Flash memory fab in the first quarter and will commence volume production on 130 nanometer process technology in the second quarter.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER
| • | In March, AMD and Fujitsu Limited announced a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to establish a new Flash memory semiconductor company based on the integration of AMD and Fujitsu’s Flash memory operations, including their existing FASL joint manufacturing venture. |
| • | In March, AMD entered the thin-and-light mobile PC market with its newly launched line of new, low-voltage mobile AMD Athlon XP-M processors. |
| • | In March, Gartner/Dataquest Worldwide Quarterly PC Statistics for the fourth quarter of 2002 showed that AMD processor-based desktop and mobile computers increased worldwide unit market share to 19 percent among buyers of Windows® operating system-based PCs in 2002. |
| • | In February, the AMD Athlon 64 processor won the Microprocessor Report Analysts’ Choice for Best PC Processor at the prestigious Microprocessor Report’s Analysts’ Choice Awards 2002. |
| • | In February, AMD introduced the AMD Athlon XP processor 3000+, the world’s highest performing desktop PC processor and introduced the AMD Athlon MP processor 2600+, the highest performing multiprocessor in its line of multiprocessors for servers and workstations. |
| • | In January, AMD and IBM announced that the two companies had entered into an agreement to jointly develop chip-making technologies for use in future high-performance products. |

| • | In the first quarter, AMD added five infrastructure partners to the more than 100 companies that have announced support of AMD Opteron and AMD Athlon processors, including Microsoft, IBM DB2, RedHat, SuSE, NVIDIA, Epic Games and CA Ingres. |
| • | In January, AMD introduced the Am29PDL640G, a 64 Mbit page-mode Flash memory device designed for wireless applications such as mobile phones and other applications including television set-top boxes. This Flash memory device delivers a superior combination of high-performance, long battery life and sophisticated security. |
CURRENT OUTLOOK
AMD’s outlook statements are based on current expectations. The following statements are forward-looking, and actual results could differ materially. Economic and industry conditions remain uncertain, and continue to make it particularly difficult to forecast product demand. The company’s current outlook for the second quarter is based on the following projections:
| • | AMD believes it will continue to gain share in the wireless segment, and expects to achieve its fifth consecutive quarterly increase in Flash memory revenues. |
| • | AMD believes that processor sales will be flat to up in the historically weakest quarter seasonally, based on an improved product mix and the anticipated benefits of a better-balanced PC supply chain inventory. |
| • | AMD plans for cost reductions in the quarter sufficient to achieve its target of reducing its overall quarterly cost structure to below $800 million. |
AMD TELECONFERENCE
AMD will hold a conference call for the financial community at 2:30 PM Pacific Time today to discuss first quarter financial results. AMD will provide a real-time audio broadcast of the teleconference on the Investor Relations page of its web site at http://www.amd.com or http://www.StreetEvents.com. The web-cast will be available for ten days after the conference call.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
This release contains forward-looking statements, 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 uncertainty that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations. Risks include the possibility that global business and economic conditions will worsen resulting in lower than currently expected sales in the second quarter of 2003; that Intel Corporation pricing, marketing programs, product bundling, new product introductions or other activities targeting the company’s processor business will prevent attainment of the company’s current PC processor sales plans; that demand for personal computers and, in turn, demand for the company’s PC processors will be lower than currently expected; that the sales of AMD PC processors will follow seasonal patterns or worse in the second quarter despite the availability of a richer mix of the company’s products; that demand for the company’s Flash memory products will be lower than currently expected, particularly in the high-end cellular telephone sector; that the company will not achieve sequential growth in sales of Flash memory devices; that the company may not achieve its current product and technology introduction schedules including the current schedule for introducing AMD Athlon XP processors based on the “Barton” core or the AMD Opteron processor based on AMD 64-bit technology, or the schedule for implementing 90nm process technology in Fab 30; and that the company may not be able to successfully implement the new proposed joint venture with Fujitsu, Ltd. and sustain any benefit from such joint venture. 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 Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2002.
