LSI Logic anticipates that second quarter revenues will increase approximately 9 percent sequentially, near the high end of the previous growth guidance. LSI Logic also announced a series of actions, completing the revamping of the company's global manufacturing strategy. These steps enable the acceleration of the final disposition of LSI Logic's Tsukuba and Colorado Springs manufacturing facilities. The company anticipates reporting $140 million to $160 million in special items, compared to previous guidance of $50 million to $70 million in special items. LSI Logic expects a GAAP* net loss of 43-50 cents, compared to the earlier range of a net loss of 23-31 cents. On a pro forma basis, the company's second quarter net loss expectation (excluding special items**), improved by four cents to a range of 6-8 cents. The bottom line performance reflects better-than-expected gross margin expansion and accelerated benefits from the company's expense control and cost-reduction programs. "These actions focus our internal manufacturing on our world-class Gresham, Oregon campus," said Wilfred Corrigan, LSI Logic chairman and chief executive officer. "Going forward, LSI Logic will supplement its Gresham facility with foundry engagements. Both will play key roles in the success of LSI Logic's RapidChip(TM), ASIC and standard product businesses." LSI Logic will report its second quarter 2003 financial results Wednesday, July 23 after the close of market. At that time, LSI Logic will provide guidance for the 2003 third quarter. * Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ** Acquisition-related amortization, restructuring and other special items.
