For the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year, Infineon Technologies AG (FWB:IFX) reported increased revenues in all operating segments compared to the prior quarter. Growth was primarily driven by higher bit shipments and slightly increased average sales prices in the Memory Products segment, as well as improved revenues in the mobile platform and radio frequency transceiver business in the Communication segment. Revenues in the Automotive, Industrial and Multimarket segment were stable, as higher sales of power semiconductors offset continued strong price declines in the security and chip-card business.
Sequential EBIT loss improved significantly in all operating segments. The EBIT loss decrease is primarily attributable to slightly increased average sales prices and a strong reduction in the cost-per-bit in the Memory Products segment, as well as improved gross margin in the Communication segment. The planned phase-out of production at the company's Munich-Perlach facility and impairment charges in the Communication segment contributed to charges of Euro 64 million, included in the fourth quarter EBIT loss. Third quarter EBIT included charges of Euro 81 million, primarily in connection with the planned phase-out of production at the company's Munich-Perlach facility and impairment charges in the Communication segment.

In the 2005 financial year, revenues decreased compared to the 2004 financial year, mostly reflecting a strong decline in demand from some customers for mobile-phone components, and continued pricing pressure in all operating segments, in particular in the memory products and security and chip-card businesses. EBIT decreased year-on-year, reflecting lower EBIT in all operating segments. EBIT loss in the 2005 financial year included charges of Euro 222 million primarily related to the planned phase-out of production at the company's Munich-Perlach facility and net charges resulting from the reorganization measures in the Communication segment, which could not be entirely offset by non-recurring license income of Euro 118 million resulting from the settlement with ProMOS. In the 2004 financial year, EBIT was negatively impacted by net charges aggregating Euro 332 million, resulting primarily from asset impairments and the US and European DRAM antitrust investigations and related potential civil claims.
"In the 2005 financial year, we have made substantial progress in cost reduction, and streamlining the company. Nevertheless, the impact of these measures on the year's financials was more than offset by the strong price erosion and a loss of market share of some mobile phone customers," said Dr. Wolfgang Ziebart, CEO and President of Infineon Technologies AG. "For the third year in a row, the Memory Products segment reported positive EBIT results despite a strong decline in chip prices. I am especially pleased with the performance of our wireline business, where we achieved the turn-around in the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year."
Cash flow, capital expenditures, and savings in the 2005 financial year
Free cash flow in the 2005 financial year was negative Euro 281 million, decreasing from positive Euro 206 million in the previous year. The decline in free cash flow reflected a decrease in cash flow from operations in the 2005 financial year to Euro 1.04 billion compared to Euro 1.86 billion in the 2004 financial year, which was mostly the result of the net loss in the 2005 financial year. This could not be offset by decreases in net cash used in investing activities (excluding net proceeds from sales of marketable securities) to Euro 1.32 billion, thereof Euro 1.37 billion used for capital expenditures in the 2005 financial year, down from Euro 1.65 billion, thereof Euro 1.16 billion used for capital expenditures in the 2004 financial year. Infineon's net cash position at the end of the 2005 financial year amounted to Euro 341 million, decreasing from Euro 548 million as of September 30, 2004.
SG&A expenses decreased to Euro 655 million in the 2005 financial year, down from Euro 718 million in the 2004 financial year, but remained constant at 10 percent of total revenues in both years.
The company's Smart Savings program, implemented in the first quarter of the 2005 financial year, resulted in cost levels that were Euro 320 million lower than originally planned.
Employee Data
As of September 30, 2005, Infineon had approximately 36,400 employees worldwide compared to 35,600 employees at the end of the 2004 financial year. Thereof, approximately 7,400 were engaged in Research and Development as of September 30, 2005, compared to approximately 7,200 employees at the end of the 2004 financial year.
Outlook for the first quarter of the 2006 financial year
Industry experts forecast mid-single-digit growth for the worldwide semiconductor market in the 2006 calendar year. For the 2006 financial year, Infineon expects to develop at least in line with the market. In its Automotive, Industrial and Multimarket segment, the company anticipates further growth due to increasing demand for electronics in cars, power conversion, and energy-saving technologies. In addition, Infineon expects further business opportunities in the Communication segment, mainly due to its capability in radio-frequency technologies. In its Memory Product segment, Infineon will continue to focus its portfolio on higher margin growth businesses.
In the first quarter of the 2006 financial year, Infineon expects revenues to increase slightly compared to the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year. The company will continue to phase out the production at Munich-Perlach, build the new production site in Kulim, Malaysia, and to ramp up the 300-millimeter production facility in Richmond. In the first quarter of the 2006 financial year, Infineon expects no significant charges. In addition, Infineon will begin to recognize stock-based compensation expense in its statements of operations.
In November 2005, the company's Supervisory Board has approved a plan to separate the memory products business and to form a wholly owned subsidiary of Infineon effective July 1, 2006. It is the preferred plan of the Infineon management to subsequently move towards a public offering of shares in this business.
"We have intensively examined Infineon's strategic orientation. The logic and the memory segments are increasingly characterized by diverging processes and business models," commented Dr. Wolfgang Ziebart. "Therefore, we have decided on a new strategic set-up including two companies - one focused on logic products, the other on memories. Both companies will benefit from higher flexibility and will be able to more efficiently exploit growth opportunities."
Segments' 2005 fourth quarter and financial year performance and outlook
Following a reorganization of its segment structure, Infineon began to report its results of operations in accordance with this new organizational structure during the second quarter of the 2005 financial year. The former mobile business and the Wireline Communication segment were combined into the new Communication segment to align the company's structure with market developments. At the same time, the company's security and chip-card activities and the ASIC & Design Solutions business were integrated into the extended Automotive, Industrial and Multimarket segment. The results of operations of all periods presented have been reclassified to be consistent with the revised reporting structure and presentation, as well as to facilitate analysis of current and future operating segment information.

In the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year, revenues in the Automotive, Industrial and Multimarket segment were stable compared to the previous quarter. Revenues in the industrial business increased, mainly due to higher sales of chips for power supply. In the security and chip-card business, revenues decreased, as the slight increase in unit volume could not compensate for the continued strong price decline. The segment's EBIT was negatively impacted by costs related to product transfer in connection with the planned phase-out of production at Munich-Perlach and the expenses in connection with the new production site in Kulim, Malaysia.

In the 2005 financial year, the segment's revenues decreased slightly, as growth in sales in the automotive business could not offset reduced revenues in the company's discrete and security and chip-card businesses, primarily due to volume decline and pricing pressure. EBIT in the 2005 financial year decreased, mostly due to the significant price decline in the security and chip-card business.
Automotive, Industrial and Multimarket's outlook for the first quarter of the 2006 financial year
Infineon expects revenues and EBIT to increase slightly in its automotive and industrial business in the first quarter of the 2006 financial year compared to the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year, despite annual price reductions at major customers that take effect for the first time in the first quarter of the 2006 financial year. Infineon anticipates revenues and EBIT in the security and chip-card business to remain under pressure, but currently expects the trend to be reversed beginning with the second quarter of the 2006 financial year, due to the cost-reduction measures put in place. In the overall Automotive, Industrial and Multimarket segment, Infineon expects revenues to increase slightly and EBIT to remain stable compared to the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year, despite the previously mentioned price reductions, the anticipated expenses in connection with the planned phase-out of production at Munich-Perlach and expenses for the new production site in Kulim, Malaysia.
Communication

In the Communication segment, the segment's revenues increased sequentially, primarily due to improved revenues in the mobile platform and radio frequency transceiver business in the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year. In the company's wireline business, revenues were stable compared to the previous quarter. The EBIT loss decreased significantly compared to the third quarter, mainly due to improved gross margin and lower expenses in research and development. Fourth quarter EBIT was negatively impacted by impairment charges of Euro 14 million.

In the 2005 financial year, revenues decreased, mainly due to a strong decline in demand from some mobile phones customers, as well as continued pricing pressure. Revenues of the segment's wireline business remained stable year-on-year. The significant EBIT loss increase compared to the previous year was mainly due to the reduced sales volume in the mobile platform business, increased idle capacity costs, and charges resulting primarily from the sale or reorganization of the fiber optics and certain other communications businesses.
Communication's outlook for the first quarter of the 2006 financial year
In the first quarter of the 2006 financial year, the company expects revenues of its Communication segment to remain stable compared to the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year. The company expects the segment's EBIT loss to stay in the range of the EBIT loss in the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year.
Memory Products

In the fourth quarter of the 2005 financial year, revenues in the Memory Products segment increased sequentially, mainly due to growth in bit shipments and slightly increased average sales prices. EBIT in the fourth quarter swung to a profit after a loss in the previous quarter, as a result of the slight increase in average sales prices, higher volumes and a strong reduction in the cost-per-bit. This cost reduction was mainly achieved by the growth of overall bit shipments, improved productivity which led to a decline of cost-per-bit in manufacturing.
Year ended Year ended +/- in % In Euro million Sep 30, 2005 Sep 30, 2004 --------------- ------------------ ------------------- ----------- Revenues 2,826 2,926 -3% --------------- ------------------ ------------------- ----------- EBIT 122 169 -28% --------------- ------------------ ------------------- -----------
In the 2005 financial year, revenues decreased slightly compared to the previous year, mostly due to a price-per-bit decline of approximately 30 percent year-on-year, and the continued weakening of the US dollar compared to the Euro. This could not be fully offset by growth in bit shipments from increased output of 300-millimeter wafers and products manufactured in the company's 110-nanometer technology. The year-on-year EBIT decrease was primarily due to the price-per-bit decline and the weakening US dollar, as well as increasing expenses for research and development related to the acceleration of the technology roadmap and the broadening of the product portfolio. This could not be offset by the company's cost-per-bit reductions and higher bit shipments. Revenues and EBIT in the 2005 financial year included non-recurring license income of Euro 118 million resulting from the settlement with ProMOS. During the 2005 financial year, Infineon continued to extend its portfolio of less volatile and higher-margin memory products, such as modules for servers, and components for high-end graphics. Their contribution is continuously increasing.
Memory Products' outlook for the first quarter of the 2006 financial year
In the first quarter of the 2006 financial year, Infineon expects seasonal strength in demand for computers to drive bit growth in the DRAM market. On the supply side, capacity and productivity in the industry are expected to grow, offset only partially by capacity shifts to non-DRAM products by some of the company's competitors. This, coupled with pricing pressure and uncertainties regarding chipset availability in the PC segment, makes price development difficult to predict. The company expects to further increase its bit production based on additional capacities at the company's joint venture Inotera and its 300-millimeter production facility in Richmond. The company continues to focus its portfolio on higher margin growth businesses, including infrastructure, and high-end graphics, as well as consumer and mobile applications.

EBIT
Infineon defines EBIT as earnings (loss) before interest and taxes. Infineon management uses EBIT among other measures to establish budgets and operational goals, to manage the Company's business and to evaluate its performance. Infineon reports EBIT information because it believes that it provides investors with meaningful information about the operating performance of the company and especially about the performance of its separate business segments.
EBIT is determined as follows from the condensed consolidated statements of operations, without adjustment to the US GAAP amounts presented:

Since restricted cash no longer includes amounts for the repayment of debt, the gross and net cash positions exclude restricted cash. Since Infineon holds a substantial portion of its available monetary resources in the form of readily marketable securities, which for US GAAP purposes are not considered to be "cash", it reports its gross and net cash positions to provide investors with an understanding of the company's overall liquidity. The gross and net cash position is determined as follows from the condensed consolidated balance sheets, without adjustment to the US GAAP amounts presented: -------- -------- -------- Sep 30, Jun 30, Sep 30, in Euro million 04 05 05 ------------------------------------ -------- -------- -------- Cash and cash equivalents 608 918 1,148 Marketable securities 1,938 1,466 858 ------------------------------------ -------- -------- -------- Gross Cash Position 2,546 2,384 2,006 ------------------------------------ -------- -------- -------- Less: short-term debt 571 548 99 long-term debt 1,427 1,524 1,566 ------------------------------------ -------- -------- -------- Net Cash Position 548 312 341 ------------------------------------ -------- -------- -------- Free Cash Flow Infineon defines free cash flow as cash from operating and investing activities excluding purchases or sales of marketable securities. Since Infineon holds a substantial portion of its available monetary resources in the form of readily marketable securities, and operates in a capital intensive industry, it reports free cash flow to provide investors with a measure that can be used to evaluate changes in liquidity after taking capital expenditures into account. The free cash flow is determined as follows from the condensed consolidated cash flow statements, without adjustment to the US GAAP amounts presented: ------- ------- ------- ------- ---------- 3 months ended 12 months ended Sep 30, Jun 30, Sep 30, Sep 30, Sep 30, in Euro million 04 05 05 04 05 --------------------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ---------- Net cash provided by operating activities 568 202 250 1,857 1,039 Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities (900) (494) 348 (1,809) (238) Thereof: Purchase (sale) of marketable securities, net 402 280 (613) 158 (1,082) --------------------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ---------- Free cash flow 70 (12) (15) 206 (281) --------------------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ---------- ------------ ------------ Employee Data Sep 30, 04 Sep 30, 05 ------------------------------------------------ ------------ Infineon worldwide 35,570 36,440 Thereof: Research and Development 7,160 7,401 ------------------------------------------------ ------------
