All Headlines PMC-Sierra Reports First Quarter 2001 Results SANTA CLARA, Calif., Apr 19, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- PMC-Sierra, Inc. (Nasdaq: PMCS chart, msgs) today reported net revenues of $119.9 million and pro forma net income of $0.02 per share (diluted) for the first quarter of 2001.
Net revenues increased 5% compared to the first quarter of 2000 while declining 48% compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. Pro forma net income for the first quarter of 2001 was $4.4 million compared to pro forma net income of $27.2 million in the first quarter of 2000 and $62.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2000.
"During the first quarter of 2001, we announced 16 new products, including an OC-192 chip set solution, and we are continuing to build for the long term by achieving design wins at a brisk pace," said Bob Bailey, chairman, president and CEO of PMC-Sierra. "By executing a proactive internal restructuring process in the first quarter of this year, we have sharpened our product focus and operational efficiencies while lowering our cost structure going forward."
Pro forma net income for the first quarter of 2001 excludes amortization of goodwill, deferred stock compensation, gain on sale of investments (net of related tax provision), a $19.9 million restructuring charge, and a $2.1 million provision for inventory write-downs recorded in cost of revenues. The restructuring charge of $19.9 million is primarily related to employee severance and facility consolidation. Including the above items, the Company incurred a net loss in the first quarter of 2001 of $63.5 million or $0.38 per share (diluted) compared with net income of $17.5 million or $0.10 per share (diluted) in first quarter of 2000.
Strategic Alliance: In March, PMC-Sierra announced a technical and marketing alliance with Multilink Technology Corporation to develop complete 10 Gigabit-per-second reference platforms for optical networking. The two companies will combine Multilink's newly announced SiGe SERDES chip set and Forward Error Correction (FEC) devices with PMC-Sierra's 10 Gigabit-per-second framer technologies to facilitate the rapid design of innovative linecard solutions for the Metropolitan Area Network.
Product Announcements: PMC-Sierra has announced 16 new products in 2001 that address key segments of the broadband communications market.
-- CHESS-II(TM)(Channelizer Engine for SONET/SDH): the CHESS-II(TM) chip set is targeted at the emerging Optical Metropolitan Area Network and is an OC-192/STM-64 line rate optical networking architecture that enables Internet Service Providers and telecommunication carriers to deliver voice, video and data services across a single optical transport backbone. The chip set includes the SPECTRA(TM)-9953 (STS-1 channelized framer and pointer processor), TBS-9953 (groomer and serializer), TSE-160 (160 Gbit/s STS-1 cross-connect) and the CRSU-4x2488 (4xOC-48 clock and data recovery). The chip set's unique architecture enables consolidation of traditional SONET/SDH equipment, together with IP routers and multi service switches, into a single shelf platform.
-- FREEDM(TM) packet processor family: two new members of the Frame Engine and Datalink Manager (FREEDM(TM)) packet processor family for packet-based line cards, namely the FREEDM-336 and the FREEDM-84. The FREEDM-336 is the industry's first packet processor to support up to 336 T1 lines and achieve a sustained wire speed throughput for short IP packets. The FREEDM-84 supports up to 84 T1 or 63 E1 links over 1024 HDLC channels and is ideal for nxDS3 and nxOC-3 port card designs. It can, for the first time, enable the routing of up to an OC-48's worth of T1 and DS-3 traffic on a single line card.
-- ClassiPI(TM) packet content classification processor: the ClassiPI (Classification by Packet Inspection) is a new class of packet processor for Gigabit Ethernet and OC-48 applications. It is designed to accelerate the deployment of content aware Internet Protocol (IP) services such as intrusion detection, load balancing and Quality of Service (QoS) in the IP switches and routers.
-- Inverse Multiplexer for ATM: three new inverse multiplexer products include the S/UNI-IMA-84 that supports an industry leading 84 T1 or 63 E1 links in a single device. It is optimized for T1/E1-over-fiber applications in Multiservice ATM switches, Metro-Optical Access switches and 3G Wireless Base Station Controllers. The S/UNI-IMA-32 supports up to 32 links and for lower link count applications the S/UNI-IMA-8 supports up to 8 links.
-- Multi-Port SERDES Devices: announced three highly integrated Serializer/Deserializer (SERDES) devices including the QuadPHY-II(TM), the OctalPHY(TM) and the QuadPHY(R) that provide multi-port gigabit serial backplane interconnect for switches/routers as well as Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and Infiniband serial interface standards for optical modules. The QuadPHY-II, OctalPHY and QuadPHY devices dramatically increase system design flexibility by allowing easy interconnection of chip level and board level building blocks used in Gigabit and Terabit Switches/Routers and Multi Service Provisioning Platforms.
