At the Analyst Day, the Company’s executives expect to provide updates regarding conditions in the hard disk industry. Specifically, the Company expects to make the following comments:

*Market demand currently continues to be very strong. The Company expects revenue in the first quarter of 2006 to be on the high end of the Company’s previous guidance of a 2% to 4% increase over the prior quarter.

*The Company believes supply of finished media and substrates continues to remain tight and the Company is continuing to run at full manufacturing capacit y.

*With continuing strong customer demand and some additional media production capacity from the capacity expansion in process, the Company expects revenue in the second quarter of 2006 to be above the first quarter.

*The Company’s capacity expansion plans are on, or slightly ahead of schedule. Based on the current schedule, the Company expects to have total production capacity of approximately 35 million finished disks per quarter exiting the second quarter of 2006.

*Further, the Company continues to expect to exit the 2006 calendar year with a quarterly production capacity of approximately 43 million finished disks to meet commitments to customers.

This report contains forward-looking statements relating to expected market demand, expected revenue in the first quarter of 2006, levels of incremental new media capacity expected to be added by the Company in 2006, and the Company’s expected revenue trend for the second quarter of 2006. These statements involve k nown and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, the Company’s ability to achieve its operating yield, cost and profitability targets, changes in the currency exchange rate for the Malaysian ringgit as a result of the managed float system, continued customer demand and the impact of demand variation on factory utilization, the performance by the Company and its customers of their obligations under the respective increased capacity arrangements, the Company’s ability to increase its capacity, variability in demand and associated impact on average selling price of disks, the Company’s ability to satisfy customer qualification requirements and meet shipping demands, the Company’s expectation that industry unit demand will continue to grow and not dec line and, the Company’s ability to produce new generation disks in volume and the other factors described in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to, its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
