AMD Reports First Quarter Results

SUNNYVALE, Calif. — April 19, 2007 — AMD (NYSE: AMD) today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2007¹. AMD reported first quarter 2007 revenue of $1.233 billion, an operating loss of $504 million, and a net loss of $611 million, or $1.11 per share. These results include ATI acquisition-related and integration charges of $113 million, or $0.21 per share, and employee stock-based compensation expense of $28 million, or $0.05 per share. In the fourth quarter of 2006, AMD reported revenue of $1.773 billion and an operating loss of $529 million. In the first quarter of 2006, AMD reported revenue of $1.332 billion and operating income of $259 million.

¹	As a result of the acquisition of ATI, financial 2006 results include the results of the former ATI operations from October 25 through December 31, 2006 only. Therefore, first quarter 2007 results do not correlate directly to either first quarter 2006 or fourth quarter 2006 historical results.

In this press release, AMD has provided non-GAAP financial measures for operating income (loss) and gross margin to reflect its financial results without acquisition-related and integration charges and employee stock-based compensation expense. Management believes this non-GAAP presentation makes it easier for investors to compare current and historical period operating results.

“After more than three years of successfully executing our customer expansion strategy and significantly growing our unit and revenue base, our first quarter performance is disappointing and unacceptable,” said Robert J. Rivet, AMD’s chief financial officer. “We are aggressively addressing the issues that led to our significant revenue decline. We are aligning our business model, capital expenditures and cost structure with the goal of accelerating our return to profitability. Lastly, our customer relationships remain solid, reflecting their confidence in our strategic direction, current and new products, and technology roadmaps.”

First quarter 2007 gross margin was 31 percent, excluding stock-based compensation expense and acquisition-related charges, compared to 40 percent in the fourth quarter of 2006 and 59 percent in the first quarter of 2006. The decrease from the prior quarter was largely due to significantly lower microprocessor unit shipments, lower microprocessor average selling prices (ASPs), and the inclusion of the former ATI operations, which generally have lower-margin products, for the entire quarter.

Computing Solutions

The Computing Solutions segment includes what the company previously called the Computation Products and Embedded Products segments as well as the chipset business acquired with ATI. First quarter Computing Solutions segment revenue was $918 million, including a full quarter of ATI chipset revenues. The 38 percent sequential decline was primarily due to significantly lower microprocessor unit sales and lower microprocessor ASPs. Year-over-year server and desktop processor unit shipments and revenues declined significantly, while mobile processor unit shipments and revenue increased significantly.

Graphics

First quarter Graphics segment revenue of $197 million increased 19 percent from the fourth quarter of 2006, primarily due to a full quarter of operations.

Adjusted EBITDA	$	(196	)	$	168		$	417

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, in-process research and development, amortization of acquired intangible assets, interest expense and taxes. The Company calculated and communicated Adjusted EBITDA because management believes it is of interest to investors and lenders in relation to its overall capital structure and its ability to borrow additional funds. 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 U.S. GAAP operating measure of net income or U.S. 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.
