Xilinx returns to sequential revenue growth

Xilinx Inc. today announced that revenue and earnings grew sequentially in the December quarter for the first time since March.

For its fiscal third quarter of 2002, Xilinx reported $228.8 million in revenue, up 2% from $224.6 million in the September quarter, while net income was $9.7 million, or 3 cents per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $10.5 million a quarter ago.

Xilinx earlier said it expected revenue to drop 5% in the quarter.

“Our business has finally stabilized after declining for three quarters in a row,” said Wim Roelandts, president and chief executive of the San Jose-based company in a conference call with analysts. “We exceeded our guidance for the quarter, and we expect to gain market share versus other PLD suppliers.”

Roelandts attributed the gains to a brisk uptake of its high-priced Virtex-II programmable chips, and a strong position at global accounts relative to competitors.

Higher average selling prices also helped to elevate gross profit margins to 55%, added Xilinx's chief financial officer, Kris Chellam.
