EXHIBIT 99.1
[LETTERHEAD OF AMD APPEARS HERE]
AMD REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
SUNNYVALE, CA-JULY 14, 1999-AMD today reported that the one-time, after-tax
gain from the sale of Vantis Corporation offset a substantial operating loss in
the just-completed quarter. AMD reported sales of $595,109,000 and net income of
$79,896,000, or $0.53 per diluted share, for the second quarter, ended June 27,
1999. The results reflected an operating loss of $173 million, a one-time,
after-tax gain of $259 million from the sale of Vantis, the company's
programmable logic subsidiary, and restructuring and other special charges of
$17.5 million. Excluding the one-time gain from the sale of Vantis and the
restructuring and other special charges would result in a net loss of $162
million, or $1.10 per share.
Sales declined by 6 percent from the immediate-prior quarter, while
increasing by 13 percent from the second quarter of 1998. The sale of Vantis was
concluded on June 15, 1999, and therefore results from the second quarter
include only 11 weeks of sales from Vantis Corporation. In the first quarter of
1999, AMD reported sales of $631,593,000, which resulted in a net loss of
$128,367,000, or $0.88 per share, including restructuring and other special
charges. In the second quarter of 1998, AMD reported sales of $526,538,000
and a net loss of $64,560,000, or $0.45 per share.

For the first six months of 1999, AMD reported total sales of
$1,226,702,000 and a net loss of $48,471,000, or a loss of $0.33 per share,
including the gain on the sale of Vantis and restructuring and other special
charges. For the same period a year ago, AMD reported total sales of
$1,067,394,000 and a net loss of $127,287,000, or $0.89 per share.
As the company forecasted several weeks ago, AMD reported sales of 3.7
million AMD-K6(R) family processors, down from 4.3 million units in the
immediate-prior quarter. Average selling prices for AMD-K6 family processors
declined to $67 versus $78 in the first quarter of 1999.
Sales from the company's non-microprocessor product lines increased by 16
percent from the immediate-prior quarter, led by strong sales of flash memory
products, driven by demand from cellular telephone customers.
"With the resumption of growth from our memory and communications product
lines, AMD's challenge is clear," said W.J. Sanders III, chairman and chief
executive officer. "In the face of Intel's intensifying aggression in the
consumer sector of the PC market, where our AMD-K6-2 processor family with
3DNow!(R) technology has achieved substantial market share in both desktop and
portable PCs, further gains in unit market share or revenue growth are unlikely.
"The key to resuming growth and expanding margins is the recently
introduced AMD Athlon(TM) processor. The world's first seventh-generation
processor for Microsoft(R) Windows(R) computing is the highest-performance
processor for PCs available today. Initial shipments of AMD Athlon processors,
including 600-megahertz versions, commenced in June. We are encouraged by early
customer reaction to the AMD Athlon processor," Sanders concluded.

statements in this release involve risks and uncertainty that could cause actual
results to differ materially from current expectations. Forward-looking
statements in this release regarding the AMD Athlon processor involve the risk
that the company will not be able to produce the processor in the volume
required by customers on a timely basis; that AMD and third parties may not
provide timely infrastructure solutions (motherboards and chipsets) to support
the processor; that the processor will not achieve customer and market
acceptance; and that the company will not be able to maintain average selling
prices because of Intel's competitive reaction to this new product. We urge
investors to review in detail the risks and uncertainties detailed in the
company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including the most
recently filed Form-10K.
