Sequential Growth 144 Percent Business Editors/High-Tech Writers RED BANK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 31, 2000--GlobeSpan, Inc. (NASDAQ:GSPN), a leading provider of integrated circuit, software, and system designs for digital subscriber line (DSL) applications, today announced its results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2000. GlobeSpan reported net revenues of $75,901,000, an increase of 704.5% over net revenues of $9,434,000 for the second quarter of 1999, and an increase of 144.4% from the net revenues of $31,060,000 for the first quarter of 2000. Fully taxed, pro forma net income was $7,886,000 or pro forma diluted earnings per common share of $0.11, compared to a pro forma net loss of $2,364,000 or a pro forma basic loss per share of $0.06 in the 1999 period. Including acquisition related expenses, which include non-cash compensation, amortization of intangible assets, non-cash interest expense for the beneficial conversion feature for a convertible note issued as merger consideration (which is measured by the price of our common stock on the announcement of an acquisition and the conversion price) and in process research and development, the reported net loss for the second quarter ended June 30, 2000 was $88,700,000 or $1.42 basic loss per share. The reported net loss attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter ended June 30, 1999 was $5,830,000 or $0.15 basic loss per share including a preferred stock deemed dividend of $3,466,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, net revenues totaled $106,961,000, an increase of 491.8% over net revenues of $18,075,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Including acquisition related expenses, which include non-cash compensation, amortization of intangible assets, non-cash interest expense for the beneficial conversion feature for a convertible note issued as merger consideration and in process research and development, the reported net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $111,599,000 or $1.84 basic loss per share. The reported net loss attributable to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $9,699,000 or $0.25 basic loss per share including a preferred stock deemed dividend of $3,466,000. Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 Net Revenues. Our net revenues were $75.9 million and $9.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This amounts to an increase of 704.5%. This increase in net revenues was primarily due to the increase in unit volume shipments to existing customers, expansion of our customer base, introduction of new products and, to a lesser extent, net revenues from acquired businesses. Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. Our gross profit was $46.5 million and $6.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This amount represents an increase of 650.0%. Our gross margin was 61.3% and 65.7% in the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in gross margin was related to lower average selling prices due to increased unit volume shipped. The increase in gross profit dollars was the result of higher net revenues. We expect gross margins may decrease in the future due to a number of factors, including pressures on average selling prices, product mix and customer mix. Research and Development. Our research and development expenses were $23.2 million and $5.5 million in the three months June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This amount represents an increase of 321.8%. Research and development expenses represented 30.6% and 58.2% of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in dollars is the result of the inclusion of an acquisition completed during the three months ended June 30, 2000 and from an increase in development efforts in advance of anticipated revenues from such efforts. In addition, we added new personnel and related support from acquisitions and new hiring and incurred higher amounts of non-recurring engineering expenses and one-time licensing fees related to new products. The decrease in research and development expense as a percentage of net revenues was due to higher net revenues. Our research and development expense may increase due to planned additional increases in personnel and related support expenses, prototyping costs and depreciation resulting from increased capital investment. Selling, General and Administrative. Our selling, general and administrative expense was $11.1 and $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This amount represents an increase of 277.4%. Selling, general and administrative expense represented 14.7% and 31.3% of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in dollars resulted from the increase in sales, marketing and administrative personnel and related expenses including expenses from our acquisition, increased commissions and administrative costs. This decrease in the percentage of selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net revenues was due to higher net revenues. Our selling, general and administrative expense may increase due to increases in personnel, higher commissions and administrative costs. Amortization of Intangible Assets. During the three months ended June 30, 2000, we completed the acquisitions of T.sqware, Inc. on April 27, 2000 and iCompression, Inc. on June 30, 2000. The increase in dollar amount and percentage of amortization expense is the result of our amortizing the intangible assets acquired. 6 Non-cash Compensation. During the three months ended June 30, 2000, we granted certain employees stock options at less than fair market value. The deferred stock recorded is being amortized over the respective vesting period of four years. The increase in the dollar amount and percentage of non-cash compensation is the result of our amortizing the deferred compensation. In Process Research and Development. During the three months ended June 30, 2000, our acquisitions, T.sqware and iCompression, each had development projects not yet complete. The increase in dollars and percentage of IPR&D is the result of our expensing the IPR&D acquired. Interest Income (Expense), Net. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $1.2 million, offset by interest income of $1.0 million for a net interest expense of $0.2 million. The increase in interest expense was the result of higher borrowings and interest on our convertible note. The increase in interest income was the result of investment of excess cash balances. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $0.1 million and was the result of interest on borrowings. Interest Expense Non-cash. We are amortizing the beneficial conversion feature of approximately $48.0 million, over our call period through August 2000. The increase in the dollar amount and percentage of interest expense non-cash is the result of our amortization. Results of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 Net Revenues. Our net revenues were $107.0 million and $18.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This amounts to an increase of 491.8%. This increase in net revenues was primarily due to the increase in unit volume shipments to existing customers, expansion of our customer base, introduction of new products and, to a lesser extent, net revenues from acquired businesses. Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. Our gross profit was $66.1 million and $10.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This amount represents an increase of 511.2%. Our gross margin was 61.8% and 59.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in gross margin was due to a one-time termination charge related to the termination of a royalty agreement with Paradyne Corporation in the six months ended June 30, 1999. Without this termination charge, our gross margins would have decreased from 66.0% to 61.8%. The decrease in gross margin was related to lower average selling prices due to increased unit volume shipped. The increase in gross profit dollars was the result of higher net revenues. We expect gross margins may decrease in the future due to a number of factors, including pressures on average selling prices, product mix and customer mix. Research and Development. Our research and development expenses were $34.1 million and $10.9 million in the six months June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This amount represents an increase of 213.5%. Research and development expense represented 31.9% and 60.2% of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in dollars is the result of the inclusion of acquisitions completed during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and from an increase in development efforts in advance of anticipated revenues from such efforts. In addition, we added new personnel and related support from acquisitions and new hiring and incurred higher amounts of non-recurring engineering expenses and one-time licensing fees related to new products. The decrease in research and development expense as a percentage of net revenues was due to higher net revenues.

This amount represents an increase of 195.6%. Selling, general and administrative expense represented 16.2% and 32.5% of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in dollars resulted from the increase in sales, marketing and administrative personnel and related expenses including expenses from our acquisitions, increased commissions and administrative costs. The decrease in the percentage of selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net revenues was due to higher net revenues. Our selling, general and administrative expense may increase due to increases in personnel, higher commissions and administrative costs. Amortization of Intangible Assets.

The increase in dollar amount and percentage of amortization expense is the result of our amortizing the intangible assets acquired. Non-cash Compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, we exchanged our common stock with employee principals of an acquisition which was considered compensation and we granted certain employees stock options at less than fair market value. The deferred stock recorded is being amortized over the respective vesting periods of three and four years.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $1.7 million offset by interest income of $1.6 million for a net interest expense of $0.1 million. The increase in interest expense was the result of higher borrowings and interest on our convertible note. The increase in interest income was the result of investment of excess cash balances.
