Applied Micro Circuits Corporation Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2001 Financial Results
Quarterly Revenues Up 30% Sequentially; Pro Forma Earnings Per Share $0.21
SAN DIEGO, July 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Applied Micro Circuits Corporation (Nasdaq: AMCC - news) today reported its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2001.

Net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 were $74.2 million, an increase of 134% over the $31.6 million reported in the same period of fiscal 2000. Pro forma net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 was $27.9 million or $0.21 per share, compared with pro forma net income of $6.8 million or $0.06 per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2000, representing increases of 310% and 250%, respectively.

Sequentially, net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 increased 30% over the $57.0 million reported in the previous quarter. Pro forma net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 increased 33% over the $21.0 million, or $0.16 per share, reported in the previous quarter.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, AMCC completed the acquisition of YuniNetworks, Inc. for a purchase price, including assumed liabilities, of approximately $220 million and took a one-time charge of $21.8 million, or approximately $0.16 per share, as a write-off of purchased in-process R&D. Additionally, AMCC completed the acquisitions of pBaud Logic, Inc. and Chameleon Technologies, which were also accounted for as purchases.

Pro forma net income excludes the effects of acquisition charges, payroll and other tax effects on certain stock option exercises, and stock compensation charges related to acquired companies. Including these charges, net income on a GAAP basis for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 was $3.4 million or $0.03 per share, compared with $6.8 million or $0.06 per share for the same period last fiscal year.

Commenting on the results, Dave Rickey, President and Chief Executive Officer of AMCC, said, ``We've experienced phenomenal revenue growth in the June quarter, and for the first time ever, we've achieved a 40% pro forma operating margin and $100 million in quarterly bookings.''

Rickey continued, ``The demand for our high-performance OC-192 solutions is very strong, and production revenue is materializing faster than we expected. In addition, our digital framer business continues to ramp. We have significantly expanded our digital design capabilities with the acquisitions of YuniNetworks, pBaud Logic and Chameleon Technologies.''
