Solectron Announces Fourth Quarter Financial Results
For Immediate Release: October 5, 2006
MILPITAS, Calif. — Solectron Corporation (NYSE:SLR), a leading provider of electronics manufacturing and integrated supply chain services, today reported sales of $2.90 billion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, an increase of 7.4 percent over third quarter revenues of $2.70 billion. Revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 were $2.40 billion.
The company reported GAAP profit after tax from continuing operations of $38.8 million, or $0.04 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, compared with a GAAP profit after tax from continuing operations of $42.4 million, or $0.05 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, Solectron reported a GAAP profit after tax from continuing operations of $11.8 million, or $0.01 per share.
Non-GAAP profit after tax was $54.8 million, or $0.06 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, compared with non-GAAP profit after tax of $38.9 million, or $0.04 per share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2006. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, Solectron reported non-GAAP profit after tax of $41.4 million, or $0.04 per share. Non-GAAP financial results do not include restructuring costs, impairment charges, amortization of intangibles or stock-based compensation expenses and asset retirement obligations. Please refer to “Non-GAAP Information” below for further information.
For the full fiscal year, the company reported a GAAP profit from continuing operations of $118.4 million, or $0.13 cents per share, compared with a GAAP loss from continuing operations of $10.5 million, or $0.01 per share, in fiscal 2005.
Non-GAAP profit from continuing operations for the full year in fiscal 2006 was $151.5 million, or $0.16 cents per share, compared with a non-GAAP profit from continuing operations of $176.2 million, or $0.18 per share, in fiscal 2005.
Sales in fiscal 2006 were $10.56 billion, compared with $10.44 billion in fiscal 2005.
“The highlight of fiscal 2006 was our return to growth,” said Mike Cannon, president and chief executive officer. “I am pleased that we were successful in delivering quarterly revenue growth

throughout fiscal 2006, particularly in the second half, where our revenue grew by $610 million compared with the second half of fiscal 2005.”
“Looking ahead to fiscal 2007, we are confident we have taken the actions to deliver continued improvement in growth and profitability,” continued Cannon.
Restructuring Plan
Solectron today announced a plan to realign its manufacturing capacities that will result in estimated restructuring and impairment charges in a range of $50 million to $60 million, of which approximately 90 percent will be cash expenditures.
The company said that it estimates the restructuring actions under this plan will be completed within the next 12 months. These actions will reduce the workforce by approximately 1,400 employees and will consolidate approximately 700,000 square feet of facilities in Western Europe and North America.
First Quarter 2007 Guidance
Fiscal first quarter guidance is for sales of $2.6 billion to $2.8 billion, and for non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations in a range of 4 cents to 6 cents, on a fully diluted basis.
Non-GAAP Information
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with GAAP, Solectron also discloses non-GAAP results of operations that exclude certain items. By disclosing this non-GAAP information, management intends to provide investors with additional information to further analyze the company’s performance, core results and underlying trends. Management utilizes a measure of net income and earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis that excludes certain charges to better assess operating performance. Earnings guidance is provided only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting such charges.
Consistent with industry practice, management has historically applied these non-GAAP measures when discussing earnings or earnings guidance and intends to continue doing so.
Non-GAAP information is not determined using GAAP. Therefore, the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies and should not be used to compare the company’s performance over different periods. Non-GAAP information should not be viewed as a substitute for, or superior to, net income or other data prepared in accordance with GAAP as measures of our profitability or

liquidity. Users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions for which adjustments have been made. In addition, Solectron’s GAAP financial results often reflect one-time events and adjustments, and therefore a comparison of GAAP results over different periods can be difficult. See the tables at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP amounts to amounts reported under GAAP. A reconciliation from non-GAAP to GAAP results is contained in the attached financial summary and is available in the Investor Relations section of our website at www.solectron.com.

At 4:30 p.m. ET today, Solectron will hold a conference call to discuss its fourth quarter financial results. A live webcast can be accessed at www.solectron.com. Supplemental financial information related to the conference call will also be available in the Investor Relations section of this Web site.
