SUNNYVALE, Calif. – Oct. 16, 2014 – AMD (NYSE:AMD) today announced revenue for the third quarter of 2014 of $1.43 billion, operating income of $63 million and net income of $17 million, or $0.02 per share. Non-GAAP (1) operating income was $66 million and non-GAAP (1) net income was $20 million, or $0.03 per share.

“AMD’s third quarter financial performance reflects progress in diversifying our business,” said Dr. Lisa Su, AMD president and CEO. “Our Enterprise, Embedded and Semi-Custom segment results were strong; however, performance in our Computing and Graphics segment was mixed based on challenging market conditions that require us to take further steps to evolve and strengthen the financial performance of this business. Our top priority is to deliver leadership technologies and products as we continue to transform AMD.”

Effective July 1, 2014, AMD reorganized into two business groups, one focused on the traditional PC market and the second focused on adjacent high-growth opportunities.

Accordingly, AMD has two reportable segments:

 

    Computing and Graphics, which primarily includes desktop and notebook processors and chipsets, discrete GPUs and professional graphics; and

 

    Enterprise, Embedded and Semi-Custom, which primarily includes server and embedded processors, dense servers, semi-custom SoC products, engineering services and royalties.

Quarterly Financial Summary

 

    Gross margin was 35 percent in Q3 2014.

 

  o Gross margin was flat sequentially and included a $27 million, or 2 percent, benefit from revenue related to technology licensing.

 

    Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $938 million at the end of the quarter, essentially flat from the prior quarter.

 

    Total debt at the end of the quarter was $2.20 billion.

 

    Computing and Graphics segment revenue decreased 6 percent sequentially and decreased 16 percent year-over-year. The sequential decrease was primarily driven by lower chipset and GPU sales. The year-over-year decline was primarily due to decreased notebook processor and chipset sales.

 

  o Operating loss was $17 million, compared with an operating loss of $6 million in Q2 2014 and operating income of $9 million in Q3 2013. The sequential decrease was primarily driven by lower revenue while the year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by lower revenue partially offset by lower operating expenses.

 

  o Client average selling price (ASP) increased sequentially and year-over-year primarily driven by a richer mix of notebook processor sales.

 

  o GPU ASP decreased sequentially due to lower desktop GPU ASP and increased year-over-year.

 

    Enterprise, Embedded and Semi-Custom segment revenue increased 6 percent sequentially and 21 percent year-over-year primarily driven by increased sales of semi-custom SoCs.

 

  o Operating income was $108 million compared with $97 million in Q2 2014 and $92 million in Q3 2013. The sequential and year-over-year increase was primarily due to increased sales of semi-custom SoCs.

 

  o Embedded revenue grew by double digits on a percentage basis sequentially.

Q4 2014 Restructuring and Transformation Initiatives

As a part of AMD’s ongoing transformation work, the company has developed a targeted restructuring plan to better position AMD for profitability and long-term growth while aligning investments and resources with high-priority opportunities.


The restructuring plan, which will be largely implemented in Q4 2014, is expected to:

 

    Reduce global headcount by 7 percent, largely expected to be completed by the end of Q4 2014;

 

    Align AMD’s real estate footprint with its reduced headcount;

 

    Result in a restructuring and impairment charge of approximately $57 million in Q4 2014, primarily related to severance, and a restructuring charge of approximately $13 million in 1H 2015, primarily related to real estate actions;

 

  o The company expects to make cash payments related to these actions of approximately $34 million in Q4 2014 and $20 million in 1H 2015;

 

    Result in operational savings, primarily in operating expenses, of approximately $9 million in Q4 2014 and approximately $85 million in 2015.

“While decisions that impact the size of our global team are never entered into lightly, this is the right step to ensure we prioritize our resources and engineering investments in our highest-priority opportunities that can drive improved profitability and long-term growth,” said Dr. Su.

Recent Highlights

 

    AMD appointed Dr. Lisa Su as president and CEO and a member of the board of directors, succeeding Mr. Rory Read who will remain with the company through 2014 to advise on the transition. Mr. Joseph Householder was also appointed to the company’s board. Mr. Householder currently serves as executive vice president and chief financial officer of Sempra Energy.

 

    AMD and Synopsys announced a multi-year agreement, with Synopsys acquiring rights to AMD’s interface and foundation IP. The IP partnership will provide AMD with access to a range of Synopsys tools and IP for advanced FinFET process nodes.

 

    AMD expanded its award-winning AMD Radeon™ R9 series graphics family with the launch of the AMD Radeon™ R9 285 graphics card designed to run the most demanding games at the highest settings.

    Demonstrating its leadership in building a robust software ecosystem for 64-bit ARM servers, AMD announced immediate availability of the AMD Opteron™ A1100-Series development kit, featuring AMD’s first 64-bit ARM®-based processor, and showcased the first public demonstration of Apache™ Hadoop® running on an ARM® Cortex®-A57-based AMD Opteron™ A-Series processor. AMD is the first company to provide a standard ARM Cortex®-A57-based server platform for software developers and integrators.


    AMD expanded its AMD FirePro™ professional graphics offerings with the introduction of 4 new next-generation AMD FirePro™ W-series professional graphics cards that deliver at least 2x2 more graphics memory over the previous generation, multi-display 4K capability and increased compute performance. AMD secured several new design wins with tier-1 OEMs, including multiple HP mobile and desktop workstations. AMD also introduced the most powerful server GPU ever built for High Performance Computing with the AMD FirePro™ S9150 3.

 

    Mentor Graphics announced the availability of commercial Embedded Linux® software enabling developers to easily migrate to new commercially-supported versions for the AMD Embedded G-Series SoC and CPU, and the AMD Embedded R-Series APU.

 

    AMD announced a new technology partnership with OCZ Storage Solutions, a Toshiba Group Company, for AMD Radeon™-branded Solid State Drives (SSDs).

 

    In collaboration with Canonical®, AMD announced a ready-to-deploy OpenStack private cloud based on the SeaMicro SM15000™ server. The “out of the box” experience is meant to ease the complexities of deploying OpenStack technology and automates complex configuration tasks, simplifies management, and provides a graphical user interface to dynamically deploy new services on demand.

 

    Dow Jones named AMD to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) North America, marking more than a decade-long appearance on the list and exemplifying the company’s legacy of corporate responsibility and commitment to social, economic and environmental issues.

* The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of its performance. Adjusted EBITDA for the Company is determined by adjusting operating income (loss) for depreciation and amortization, employee stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets. In addition, the Company also included the following adjustments for the indicated periods: for the nine months ended September 27, 2014, the Company included an adjustment for workforce rebalancing severance charges; and for the third quarter of 2013 and nine months ended September 28, 2013, the Company included an adjustment for net restructuring and other special charges (gains). The Company calculates and communicates Adjusted EBITDA in the earnings press release because the Company’s management believes it is of importance to investors and lenders in relation to its overall capital structure and its ability to borrow additional funds. In addition, the Company presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes this measure assists investors in comparing its performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. 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 GAAP operating measure of operating income (loss) or 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.
** The Company also presents non-GAAP free cash flow in the earnings press release as a supplemental measure of its performance. Non-GAAP free cash flow is determined by adjusting GAAP net cash used in operating activities for capital expenditures. The Company calculates and communicates non-GAAP free cash flow in the financial earnings press release because the Company’s management believes it is of importance to investors to understand the nature of these cash flows. The Company’s calculation of non-GAAP free cash flow may or may not be consistent with the calculation of this measure by other companies in the same industry. Investors should not view non-GAAP free cash flow as an alternative to GAAP liquidity measures of cash flows from operating activities. The Company has provided reconciliations within the earnings press release of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
