AMD Reports Second Quarter Results; 53 Percent Year-over-Year Sales Growth(1) Driven by Record Adoption of AMD Opteron(TM) Processors
AMD (NYSE:AMD) today reported sales of $1.22 billion,
operating income of $102 million, and net income of $89 million, or
$0.18 per share, for the quarter ended July 2, 2006. These results
include $18 million of employee stock-based compensation expense and a
net gain of $10 million associated with Spansion LLC.'s repurchase of
its 12.75 percent senior subordinated notes.
In the second quarter of 2005, excluding the Memory Products
segment(1), AMD reported sales of $797 million and operating income of
$83 million. In the first quarter of 2006, AMD reported sales of $1.33
billion and operating income of $259 million.

"While we achieved 53 percent year-over-year sales growth and
recorded our twelfth consecutive quarter of greater than 20 percent
year-over-year microprocessor sales growth, we are dissatisfied by not
reaching our second quarter sales target," said Robert J. Rivet, AMD's
chief financial officer.
"We are particularly pleased with the continued adoption of AMD
solutions in the commercial segment. In particular, AMD Opteron
processor sales grew 26 percent sequentially and we believe we gained
server processor market share in the quarter. Sales to our largest
global customers grew quarter-over-quarter as we continued to
successfully execute our strategy. Sales through the distribution
channel were down, primarily because we chose not to participate in
certain deeply-discounted opportunities.
"Second quarter manufacturing execution was outstanding, with Fab
36 ramping 300mm capacity aggressively at mature yields. In addition,
Chartered Semiconductor is now in production of AMD products."
Second quarter sales were down from the prior quarter primarily
due to the challenging pricing environment for high-volume desktop
processors which negatively impacted average selling prices (ASPs).
Total microprocessor unit shipments were down four percent
sequentially.
Record AMD Opteron processor sales were driven by growing demand
for single- and multi-socket server and workstation solutions. AMD
Opteron processor unit shipments experienced double digit percentage
growth quarter-over-quarter, and the sequential ASP percentage
increase was in the single digits.
Second quarter gross margin was 56.8 percent, compared to 58.5
percent in the first quarter of 2006. The gross margin decrease was
largely due to lower desktop processor ASPs. Operating income was $102
million in the second quarter, up from $83 million in the second
quarter of 2005 and down from $259 million in the first quarter of
2006. The decline in operating income from the prior quarter was due
largely to lower sales and increased operating expenses related to an
extra week of operations in the quarter, and marketing expenses in
support of the company's long-term goals to acquire new customers,
expand business with existing customers, and increase commercial
sales.

increasing the number of platforms with existing customers.
-- Dell announced plans to offer Dual-Core AMD Opteron
processor-based servers by the end of the year.
-- Lenovo announced plans to offer AMD-powered ThinkCentre
commercial desktops.
-- Fujitsu Siemens Computers launched two new commercial
offerings, an AMD Athlon 64 processor-based Esprimo

than twice the AMD Turion 64 X2 mobile design wins at launch
as compared to the original AMD Turion 64 launch.
-- AMD detailed its "Torrenza" initiative to accelerate
industry-wide innovation on the AMD64 platform. Torrenza
represents the industry's first open x86 innovation platform,
capitalizing on the unique advantages of the Direct Connect
Architecture and HyperTransport. Torrenza will enable partners
to innovate within a common ecosystem.
-- More than 90 percent of the top 100 and more than 55 percent

accelerating the transition to 45nm production within 18
months of initial 65nm production. AMD also received a
non-binding $900 million cash incentive package consisting of
grants and tax credits from the State of New York to build its
next fabrication facility in Luther Forest, NY.
-- AMD, APC, Cadence Design Systems, Dell, Egenera, HP, IBM,
Rackable Systems, SprayCool, Sun Microsystems, VMWare and
other industry leaders initiated the formation of the Green
Grid(TM) Alliance to share best practices to reduce power
consumption in datacenters and raise awareness around critical
energy optimization of datacenter management.
-- AMD continued to enhance performance in the award-winning AMD
Athlon 64 processor family, including the launch of the AMD
Athlon 64 FX 62 and the AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+. AMD also
announced a new line of energy-efficient desktop products
delivering smaller, quieter, and more innovative PC designs.
-- AMD and Microsoft announced an agreement to jointly support
flexible business models for emerging markets powered by
Microsoft(R) FlexGo(TM) technology. The pay-as-you-go
computing model allows customers to have a fully-featured PC
by paying only for the time they use it.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
This release contains forward-looking statements concerning sales
for the third quarter of 2006, AMD's Torrenza initiative and AMD's
manufacturing capacity expansion plans, 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

results to differ materially from the company's current expectations.
Risks include the possibility that global business and economic
conditions will worsen, resulting in lower than currently expected
sales in the third quarter of 2006 and beyond; that Intel
Corporation's pricing, marketing programs, product bundling, new
product introductions or other activities targeting the company's
microprocessor business will prevent attainment of the company's
current microprocessor sales plans; that demand for computers and, in
turn, demand for the company's microprocessors will be lower than
currently expected; that adoption of AMD64 products by OEMs will not
continue to occur as expected; that the company may not achieve its
current product and technology introduction schedules; that the
company will not be able to raise sufficient capital to enable it to
establish leading-edge capacity to maintain its market leadership
positions; that the company will not be able to obtain sufficient
manufacturing capacity or components to meet demand for its products;
that solutions providers will not provide the infrastructure to
support the company's AMD64 technology in a timely fashion; and that
unfavorable results of operations of Spansion will adversely impact
the company's results of operations. We urge investors to review in
