Tim's Conf. Call notes
MUEI
450 employees are now at MU.
Inventory write down included a loss on certain "other PC components".
New VP of materials will require suppliers to provide just-in-time service.
MU
The reason the 156 mill. pretax extraordinary gain came to only .18 per sh. is it was taxed at both MUEI and MU.
ASPs were 16meg edo $3.50, 3.10 for sync. (I guess sync. was held up by test early in the quarter)
Sync. is almost 75% of 16 meg production.
At 30-35% .25 micron process now.
Lowered expectations for radio frequency product.
64 meg output bit crossover in Jun/July timeframe.
64 meg output unit crossover in Q1 99.
64 meg production is almost all sync. and ASPs are $13 to $17.
End of quarter 16 meg pricing $2.65 to 2.90.
Inventory valued at weighted avg. cost.

I hope this clears up some inaccuracies heard on this thread. Tim

does mu have something to hide ;-) what was mu's asp. we can compare that to the current price to see if mu is hording more inventory. they'll sell as long as gross cost = asp. below that and they will try and hold inventory.
