FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE APRIL 22, 1999 APPLIED MICRO CIRCUITS CORPORATION REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL 1999 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
QUARTERLY FISCAL YEAR-OVER-YEAR YEAR ------------------ ------------------ Revenues Up 32% Up 37% Excluding $2.3 million of merger related costs: Pre-Tax Income Up 57% Up 90% Net income Up 7% Up 28%
ALL AMOUNTS PRESENTED REFLECT THE MARCH 1999 ACQUISITION OF CIMARON COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION WHICH HAS BEEN ACCOUNTED FOR ON THE POOLING OF INTERESTS METHOD. SAN DIEGO, CA, - APRIL 22, 1999 - Applied Micro Circuits Corporation (AMCC) [NASDAQ: AMCC] today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 1999. Net revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 were $28.7 million, an increase of 32% over the $21.7 million reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. Pre-tax income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 was $8.5 million (prior to merger-related costs of $2.3 million), an increase of 57% over the $5.4 million reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. 5 Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 was $5.6 million (excluding merger-related costs of $2.3 million), or $0.20 per share, diluted (excluding merger-related costs of $.08 per share), compared with $5.3 million, or $0.23 per share, diluted, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, net income and earnings per share reflect an increase in AMCC's effective tax rate to approximately 34% (excluding the tax impact of merger- related costs) from fiscal 1998's rate of 3%. Additionally, earnings per share reflect the weighted average increase in shares associated with the Company's public offerings in the second half of fiscal 1998 and AMCC's acquisition of Cimaron Communications Corporation in March 1999. Sequentially, net revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 increased 7% over the $27.0 million of net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 (excluding merger-related costs of $2.3 million) was up 10% from $5.1 million, or $0.19 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Prior quarter results have been restated to reflect the acquisition of Cimaron as a pooling of interests transaction. For fiscal year 1999, which ended March 31, 1999, net revenues were $105.0 million, an increase of 37% over the $76.6 million reported for the prior fiscal year. Pre-tax income for fiscal year 1999 was $29.7 million (excluding merger- related costs of $2.3 million), an increase of 90% over the $15.6 million reported in the prior fiscal year. Net income for fiscal year 1999 was $19.4 million, or $0.71 per share (excluding merger-related costs of $2.3 million or $0.08 per share), compared to $15.2 million, or $0.75 per share, in the prior fiscal year. The effective tax rate was 37% in fiscal 1999 compared to 3% in fiscal 1998. Commenting on the results, Dave Rickey, President and Chief Executive Officer of AMCC, said "The acquisition of Cimaron Communications Corp. last quarter was a significant achievement for AMCC. The leading-edge digital framer technologies from Cimaron combined with the introduction of our own Explorer chip adds higher-layer digital content to our overall product portfolio. Our combined expertise in high-speed CMOS mixed-signal design and digital systems provides a platform for optimum integration in the network. In addition, we introduced a number of innovative products during the fourth quarter, including the S3046, a SONET OC-48 transceiver, and the S2066 and S2076, CMOS quad-channel transceivers for Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks, respectively. These solutions continue to demonstrate our commitment to and success with delivering high- bandwidth, high-performance silicon connectivity solutions that address the design requirements of our customers while meeting their cost and integration needs. We continue to build momentum in design wins for our communications products." Rickey continued, "We have also welcomed William E. Bendush to AMCC as our new CFO and Harvey P. White as the newest member on our Board of Directors. Their proven abilities to scale an 6 organization to meet the demands of high growth make them timely and valuable assets for the Company." Fourth Quarter Highlights - ------------------------- . Acquired Cimaron Communications Corp., a leader in the design and development of digital silicon solutions and ASIC cores for high-speed SONET systems . Introduced the S1203 Explorer IC, a SONET/SDH overhead processing and termination device for OC-3, 12 and 48 applications, adding higher-layer digital content to AMCC's product portfolio . Introduced the S3046, a SONET OC-48 transceiver, that has been successfully validated in Alcatel's 1603SMX system . Announced compliance of S3041 transmitter and S3042 receiver chipset with Hewlett-Packard Company's HFCT-5402D (a 2488 Mb/s single-mode fiber transceiver for SONET OC-48/SDH STM-16 and ATM applications), passing HP's bit error rate, jitter tolerance and jitter generation tests . Introduced the S2066 and S2076, quad-channel CMOS transceivers for Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks, respectively . Expanded OC-48 DWDM and SONET/SDH portfolio with S3049 (laser driver), S3053 (quad mux with fanout buffers) and S3054 (a dual 2 x 2 crosspoint switch) . Introduced S3038, a first fully-integrated SONET/SDH OC-12 quad transceiver AMCC's Market Opportunity ------------------------- "We are executing on our vision to be the premier supplier of high-bandwidth silicon connectivity for the world's communications infrastructure," said Rickey. "We believe demand for our communications standard products continues to grow as the need for bandwidth expands, due to the increasing demand for Internet access and high-bandwidth LAN/WAN data and video transmission." AMCC is focused on the fiber optics-based, high performance communications market that is being driven by increasing demand for greater bandwidth to accommodate growth in the Internet, the World Wide Web, and cellular and facsimile communications, as well as applications such as remote network access, video conferencing and higher speed, data-intensive communication between local area networks. The Company's products serve these Wide Area Network (WAN) and Local Area Network (LAN) applications. For telecommunications markets, the Company's products address the SONET/SDH and ATM transmission standards, and for data communications markets, the Company offers products that address the Gigabit Ethernet, ATM and Fibre Channel transmission standards. AMCC'S TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY The Company uses its internal bipolar and BiCMOS manufacturing processes together with advanced CMOS processes from external foundries to provide cost- effective solutions to its customers. Additionally, the Company has commenced designing products using an advanced silicon germanium process. These multiple silicon process technologies, combined with the Company's extensive analog, mixed-signal and digital design capabilities and its systems expertise, provide the core capabilities that 7 the Company believes give it a competitive edge in servicing the high- performance communications market.
