2. | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 141, “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141), Statement46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46). Variable interest entities often are created for a single specified purpose, for example, to facilitate securitization, leasing, hedging, research and development, or other transactions or arrangements. Formerly “Consolidation of Certain Special Purpose Entities” in its draft form, this interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “GoodwillStatements,” defines what these variable interest entities are and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS 142)provides guidelines on identifying them and Statementassessing an enterprise’s interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity. Generally, FIN 46 applies to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. For existing variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003, the provision of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (SFAS 144) atthis interpretation will apply no later than the beginning of the 2002 fiscal year. Thefirst interim or annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2003. Currently, the Company does not have any variable interest entities and the Company does not expect the adoption of these standards did notFIN 46 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Pursuant to a cross-equity provision between the Company and Fujitsu, the Company has purchased 0.5 million shares of Fujitsu Limited common stock as of March 30, 2003. Under the same provision, Fujitsu Limited purchased nine million shares of the Company’s common stock.
FASL is continuing the facilitization of its second and third Flash memory device wafer fabrication facilities, FASL JV2 and FASL JV3, in Aizu-Wakamatsu, Japan. Capital expenditures for FASL JV2 and FASL JV3 construction and facilitization to date have been funded by cash generated primarily from FASL operations and borrowings by FASL. These costs are incurred in Japanese yen and are, therefore, subject to change due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. On March 30, 2003, the exchange rate was approximately 119.535 yen to one U.S. dollar. The Company used this rate to translate the amounts denominated in yen into U.S. dollars.
FASL capital expenditures in 2003 are expected to be funded by cash generated from FASL operations and local borrowings by FASL. However, to the extent that FASL is unable to secure the necessary funds for FASL JV2 or FASL JV3, the Company will be required to contribute cash or guarantee third-party loans in proportion to its 49.992 percent interest in FASL, up to 25 billion yen ($209 million). As of March 30, 2003, the Company had $76 million in loan guarantees outstanding with respect to these third-party loans. As of March 30, 2003, the Company had not recorded any liability in its consolidated financial statements associated with these guarantees as these guarantees were entered into prior to the effective date for FIN 45.

The Company’s share of FASL net income (loss) set forth above differs from the equity in net income (loss) of joint venture reported on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The difference is due to adjustments resulting from the intercompany profit eliminations and differences in U.S. and Japanese tax treatment, which are reflected on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company has never received cash dividends from its investment in FASL.
In 2000, FASL further expanded its production capacity through a foundry arrangement with Fujitsu Microelectronics, Inc. (FMI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Fujitsu Limited. In connection with FMI equipping its wafer fabrication facility in Gresham, Oregon, (the Gresham Facility) to produce Flash memory devices for sale to FASL, the Company agreed to guarantee (the Guarantee) the repayment of up to $125 million to Fujitsu in connection withof Fujitsu’s obligationobligations as a co-signer with FMI under its global multicurrency revolving credit facility (the Credit Facility) with a third-party bank.bank (the Guarantee). On November 30, 2001, Fujitsu announced that it was closing the Gresham Facility due to athe downturn of the Flash memory market. On March 26, 2002,To date, the Company has not received notice from Fujitsu that FMI requested an advance of funds from Fujitsu to avoid defaulthas defaulted on any payments due under the Credit Facility, which notice is required as a condition to the Company’s obligations under the Guarantee. However, to date, the Company has not received a demand for payment under the terms of the Guarantee from Fujitsu. Furthermore, theFacility. The Company continues to disagree with Fujitsu as to the amount, if any, of the Company’sits obligations under the Guarantee. While the Company continues to discuss this matter with Fujitsu, it cannot predict the outcome of this matter. Accordingly, the Company cannot at this time reasonably predict its outcome including any amounts the Company might be required to pay Fujitsu, and therefore, has not recorded any liability in its consolidated financial statements associated with the Guarantee.

Restructuring and Other Special Charges |
2002 Restructuring Plan
In fiscalDecember 2002, the Company finalized a restructuring plan (the 2002 Plan) to align its cost structure to industry conditions resulting from weak customer demand and industry-wide excess inventory. The 2002 Plan will result in the reduction of approximately 2,000 positions or 15 percent of the Company’s employees, affecting all levels of its workforce in almost every organization. As part of this plan, and as a result of the Company’s agreement with IBM to develop future generations of the Company’s logic process technology, the Company is ramping down its silicon processing associated with logic research and development in its Submicron Development Center (SDC) in Sunnyvale, California and will eliminate most of those related resources, including the sale or abandonment of certain equipment used in the SDC.
The 2002 Plan will also result in the consolidation of facilities, primarily at the Company’s Sunnyvale, California site and at sales offices worldwide. The Company is vacating, and attempting to sublease, certain facilities currently occupied under long-term operating leases. The Company has also terminated the implementation of certain partially completed enterprise resource planning (ERP) software and other information technology implementation activities, resulting in the abandonment of certain software, hardware and capitalized development costs.
Pursuant to the 2002 Plan, the Company recorded in the fourth quarter of 2002 restructuring costs and other special charges of $330.6 million, consisting primarily of $68.8 million of anticipated severance and fringe benefit costs, an asset impairment charge of $32.5 million relating to a license, associated with discontinued logic development activities, that has no future use, asset impairment charges of $30.6 million resulting from the abandonment of equipment previously used in logic process development and manufacturing activities, anticipated exit costs of $138.9 million primarily to vacate and consolidate the Company’s facilities and $55.5 million resulting from the abandonment of partially completed ERP software and other information technology implementation activities.

Dresden Term Loan Agreements and Dresden Guarantee
AMD Saxony Limited Liability Company & Co. KG, (AMD Saxony, formerly known as AMD Saxony Manufacturing GmbH), an indirect wholly owned German subsidiary of AMD, continues to facilitize Fab 30, which began production in the third quarter of 2000. AMD, the Federal Republic of Germany, the State of Saxony, and a consortium of banks are providing financing for the project.
In AugustMarch 1997, AMD Saxony entered into a loan agreement and other related agreements (the Dresden Loan Agreements) with a consortium of banks led by Dresdner Bank AG, a German financial institution, in order to finance the project. The Dresden Loan Agreements were amended in February 1998, June 1999, February 2001, June 2002 and December 2002.
Because most of the Subsidy Agreement withamounts under the Dresden Loan Agreements were denominated in deutsche marks (converted to euros), the dollar amounts discussed below are subject to change based on applicable conversion rates. The Company used the exchange rate that was permanently fixed on January 1, 1999, of 1.95583 deutsche marks to one euro for the conversion of deutsche marks to euros, and then used the exchange rate of 0.93 euro to one U.S. dollar as of March 30, 2003, to translate the amounts denominated in deutsche marks into U.S. dollars.
The Dresden Loan Agreements, as amended, provide for the funding of the construction and facilitization of Fab 30. The funding consists of:
-14-
The Dresden Loan Agreements require that the Company partially fund Fab 30 project costs in the form of subordinated and revolving loans to, or equity investments in, AMD Saxony. In accordance with the terms of the Dresden Loan Agreements, as of March 30, 2003, the Company had provided $160 million of subordinated loans, $294 million of revolving loans and $286 million of equity investments in AMD Saxony. These amounts have been eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In addition to support from AMD, the consortium of banks referred to above made available up to $828 million in loans to AMD Saxony wasto help fund Fab 30 project costs. The loans have been fully drawn and a portion has been repaid. AMD Saxony had $593 million of such loans outstanding as of March 30, 2003, which is included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The Dresden Loan Agreements, as amended, also require that the Company:
As AMD Saxony’s obligations under the Dresden Loan Agreements are being recognized asincluded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, no incremental liability is recorded under the Dresden guarantee.
AMD Saxony would be in default under the Dresden Loan Agreements if the Company, AMD Saxony, AMD Saxony Holding GmbH (AMD Holding), AMD Saxony Admin GmbH or AMD Saxony LLC fail to comply with certain obligations thereunder or upon the occurrence of certain events, including:
-15-
Generally, any default with respect to borrowings made or guaranteed by AMD that results in recourse to the Company of more than $2.5 million and that is not cured by the Company, would result in a cross-default under the Dresden Loan Agreements, the July 1999 Loan Agreement and the September 2002 Loan Agreement. As of March 30, 2003, the Company was in compliance with all conditions of the agreement.
In the event the Company is unable to meet its obligations to AMD Saxony as required under the Dresden Loan Agreements, the Company will be in default under the Dresden Loan Agreements, the July 1999 Loan Agreement and the September 2002 Loan Agreement, which would permit acceleration of certain indebtedness, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The occurrence of a default under these agreements would likely result in a cross-default under the Indentures governing the Company’s 4.75% Debentures and 4.50% Notes.
Advanced Mask Technology Center and Maskhouse Building Administration Guarantees
The Advanced Mask Technology Center GmbH & Co. KG (AMTC), and Maskhouse Building Administration GmbH & Co., KG (BAC), are joint ventures formed by AMD, Infineon Technologies AG and DuPont Photomasks, Inc. for the purpose of constructing and operating a new advanced photomask facility in Dresden, Germany. In June 2002, BAC entered into an $81 million bridge loan (Bridge Loan) with a consortium of banks led by Dresdner Bank for the purpose of constructing the facility. The Company guaranteed the payment obligations of BAC under the Bridge Loan, in an amount not to exceed $27 million plus interest subsidies receivedand expenses. In December 2002, BAC and AMTC executed a facility agreement, consisting of a $130 million revolving credit facility (Revolving Loan) and an $81 million term loan facility (Term Loan), with a consortium of banks led by Dresdner Bank. The Term Loan will supercede and replace the Bridge Loan. The Company guaranteed the payment obligations of AMTC, in an amount not to exceed $35 million plus interest and expenses, under the Revolving Loan. In addition, the Company guaranteed the payment obligations of BAC, in an amount not to exceed $27 million plus interest and expenses, under the Term Loan.
In December 2002, AMTC and BAC entered into a rental agreement with respect to the photomask facility. The Company guaranteed approximately 23 percent of the payment obligations of AMTC under the rental agreement, which the Company believes will be equal to approximately $17 million, initially, and will diminish over time through 2011 as the Term Loan is repaid. The Company’s rental guarantee will replace its guarantee of the Term Loan. In addition, in the nine months ended September 29, 2002, approximately $25 millionevent the other tenant of the photomask facility defaults under its rental agreement, and AMTC
-16-
assumed the defaulting tenant’s lease and related lease obligations, the Company would be required to guarantee 23 percent of these additional rental payment obligations. Further, in the event one of the three joint venture partners is restricted fromunable to meet its guarantee obligations with respect to AMTC’s additional rental payment obligations, the remaining joint venture partners agreed to assume, on a pro rata basis, the defaulting partner’s guarantee obligations with respect to AMTC’s additional rental payment only. Assuming the other tenant of the photomask facility defaults under the rental agreement and AMTC exercises its option to assume the defaulting tenant’s obligations under its rental agreement, and assuming a default under the rental guarantee by both Infineon and DuPont, the maximum potential amount of the Company’s accessguarantee obligations for more than one year,these rental payments would be approximately $130 million.
As of March 30, 2003, no amounts were drawn under the Revolving Loan or the Term Loan and is therefore included in Other Assets.
Warranties
At the time revenue is recognized, the Company provides for estimated costs that it was formulatingmay be incurred under product warranties, with the corresponding expense recognized in cost of sales. Estimates of warranty expense are based on historical experience. Remaining warranty accruals are evaluated periodically and are adjusted for changes in experience.
The Company generally offers to end users a restructuring plan (the 2002 Restructuring Plan)three-year limited warranty for certain of its boxed microprocessor products, and a one-year limited warranty to address the continuing industry-wide weaknessdirect purchasers only for all other products.

The new company, to be called FASL LLC, would be 60 percent to approximately 70 percent. The Company also expects to reduce its expenses by approximately $100 million per quarterowned by the secondCompany and 40 percent owned by Fujitsu Limited and would integrate the Company’s and Fujitsu’s Flash memory assets and operations, including FASL. The new company is expected to begin operations in the third quarter of 2003. As a result,Because the Company will hold majority interest in FASL LLC and will control its operations, the Company expects total expensesto consolidate the operations and financial position of FASL LLC in 2003 to be reduced by $350 million based on current product demand forecasts. The Company cannot, however, be sure that the goalsits consolidated financial statements upon commencement of the 2002 Restructuring Plan will be realized. The 2002 Restructuring Plan is expected to result in pre-tax restructuring and related charges to earningsoperations of several hundred million dollars in the fourth quarter of 2002. The Company also expects approximately one-third of the restructuring and related charges to consist of cash payments.

We operate in an industry characterized by intense competition, rapid product development cycles and high fixed costs due to capital-intensive manufacturing processes, particularly the costs to build and maintain state-of-the-art wafer production facilities required for PC processors and memory devices. As a result, our gross margin percentage is significantly affected by fluctuations in unit salesnew product production costs, product demand and our ability to sell PC processors and memory devices that we manufacture at sustainable average selling prices.
The gross margin percentage of 31 percent in the semiconductor industry and to adjust our cost structure. Pursuant to the 2002 Restructuring Plan, we intend to reduce our fixed costs as a percentage of total costs over time from approximately 80 percent to approximately 70 percent. We also expect to reduce our expenses by approximately $100 million per quarter by the secondfirst quarter of 2003. As a result, we expect total expenses in 2003 to be reduced by $350 million based on current product demand forecasts. We cannot, however, be sure that the goals of the
Research and development expenses of $221 million in the third quarter of 2002 increased 24 percent compared to the second quarter of 2002 and 37 percent compared to the same quarter in 2001. Research and development expenses of $571$203 million in the first nine monthsquarter of 2002 increased2003 decreased 17 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2002 and increased 18 percent compared to the first nine monthsquarter of 2001.2002. Research and development expenses in the fourth quarter of 2002 included a $42 million charge for amounts paid to a third party in exchange for product development services provided in connection with a discrete PC processor research and development project. Without the $42 million charge, our research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2003 were relatively flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2002. The increase in research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2003 compared to the first quarter of 2002 was primarily due to the reallocation of manufacturing resources, previously included in costs of goods sold, to increased research and development activities for our upcoming eighth-generation microprocessors based on Hammer technology.
We amortize the foreign capital grants, interest subsidies and development expenses and cost of sales in the third quarter of 2002 reflected the recognition of $5.2 million and $13.9 million, respectively, of deferred credits on foreign research and development subsidies and investment grants/allowances and interest subsidies that werewe received from the State of Saxony for Dresden Fab 30. In30 quarterly. The amortization of these grants and subsidies are recognized as credits to research and development expenses and cost of sales. These credits totaled $5.4 and $10.9 million in the first nine monthsquarter of 2003, $2.9 and $8.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2002 these credits totaled $12.8and $4.7 and $9.1 million and $35.1 million, respectively. Inin the first nine monthsquarter of 2001, these credits totaled $11.2 million and $31.7 million, respectively.
Marketing, general and administrative expenses of $159$138 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2003 decreased 29 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2002 were flat comparedprimarily as a result of cost savings realized pursuant to $160 million in the second quarter2002 restructuring plan and the discontinuation of 2002certain marketing and increased five percent compared to $151 million inpromotional activities for the third quarter of 2001.AMD Athlon microprocessor.

Interest expense forof $26 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2003 increased 18 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2002 increased $11 million compared to the same quarter of 2001 primarily due to an entire quarter’s interest expense incurredaccruing on our $500$402.5 million 4.75% Convertible Senior Debentures Due 2022,of 4.50% convertible senior notes issued at the end of January 2002 and a decrease in the amount of capitalized interest incurred during the third quarter ofNovember 2002. Interest expense of $49 million in the first nine months of 2002 decreased sixincreased 117 percent compared to the first nine monthsquarter of 2001 primarily due to a larger amount2002 as neither the 4.50% notes nor the $110 million term loan entered into at the end of capitalized interestSeptember 2002 were outstanding during the first nine monthsquarter of 2002. Additionally, we capitalized interest of $4.4 million in the first quarter of 2002 offseton continued expansion and facilitization of Fabs 25 and 30 compared to $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2003.
In December 2002, we finalized a restructuring plan (the 2002 Plan) to align our cost structure to industry conditions resulting from weak customer demand and industry-wide excess inventory. The 2002 Plan will result in the reduction of approximately 2,000 positions or 15 percent of our employees, affecting all levels of our workforce in almost every organization. As part of this plan, and as a result of our agreement with IBM to development future generations of our logic process technology, we are ramping down silicon processing associated with logic research and development in our Submicron Development Center (SDC) and will eliminate most of those related resources, including the sale or abandonment of certain equipment used in the SDC.
The 2002 Plan will also result in the consolidation of facilities, primarily at our Sunnyvale, California site and at sales offices worldwide. We are vacating, and attempting to sublease, certain facilities currently occupied under long-term operating leases. We have also terminated the implementation of certain partially completed enterprise resource planning (ERP) software and other information technology implementation activities, resulting in the abandonment of certain software, hardware and capitalized development costs.
Pursuant to the 2002 Plan, we recorded in the fourth quarter of 2002 restructuring costs and other special charges of $330.6 million, consisting primarily of $68.8 million of anticipated severance and fringe benefit costs, an asset impairment charge of $32.5 million relating to a license, associated with discontinued logic development activities, that has no future use, asset impairment charges of $30.6 million resulting from the abandonment of equipment previously used in logic process development and manufacturing activities, anticipated exit costs of $138.9 million primarily to vacate and consolidate our facilities and $55.5 million resulting from the abandonment of partially completed ERP software and other information technology implementation activities.
We began activities pursuant to the 2002 Plan during the fourth quarter of 2002 and expect to substantially complete the activities associated with the 2002 Plan by the end of September 2003. As of March 30, 2003, 1,333 employees were terminated pursuant to the 2002 Plan resulting in cash payments of $32 million in severance and employee benefit costs.
During the first quarter of 2003, management approved the sale of additional interest expense onequipment, primarily equipment used in the SDC, that has been identified as no longer useful in our $500operations. As a result,

we recorded approximately $11 million 4.75% Convertible Senior Debentures Due 2022.

As a result of the 2002 Plan, we expect to realize overall cost reductions of approximately $350 million in 2003. As of March 30, 2003, the action taken to date resulted in actual savings of approximately $33 million.
In fiscal 2001, we announced a restructuring plan (the 2001 Restructuring Plan), due to athe continued slowdown in the semiconductor industry and a resulting decline in revenues. In connectionWe have substantially completed our execution of the 2001 Plan, with the plan, we closed Fabs 14 and 15 in Austin, Texas in June 2002. These facilities supported certainexception of our older products and Foundry Service operations, which have been discontinued as part of our plan. We also reorganized related manufacturingthe facilities and equipment decommission activities which are expected to be completed by the end of 2003. During the first quarter of 2003, we reduced related activities primarily in Penang, Malaysia, along with associated administrative support.
The asset impairment charges related primarily to buildings and production equipment that were incurred as a result of our decision to implement the restructuring plan. Management determined the fair value of the affected equipment based on market data and conditions.

As a result of this restructuring plan,the 2001 Plan, we expectexpected to realize overall cost reductions of $129 million on an annualized basis. The actions taken to date have resulted in actual savings of approximately $30$83 million in 2002, and additional savings of $32 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2002.
Income TaxTaxes
We recorded an income tax benefitprovision of $73$3 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 20022003 and an income tax benefit of $65$4 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2001.2002. The income tax provision recorded in the first quarter of 2003 was primarily for taxes due on income generated in certain state and foreign tax jurisdictions. No tax benefit was recorded in the first quarter of 2003 on pre-tax losses due to the incurrence of continuing operating losses. The effective tax benefit ratesrate for the quarter and nine months ended September 29,March 31, 2002 were 22was 25 percent and 30 percent, respectively, reflecting a valuation allowance against certain deferreddue to the benefits of tax assets. The effective tax benefit rates for the quartercredits and nine months ended September 30, 2001 were 26 percent and 12 percent, respectively, reflecting the provision of U.S. taxes on certain previously undistributed earnings of low-taxed foreign subsidiaries. The tax benefit on the restructuring charges in the quarter ended September 30, 2001 was $21 million or 24 percent, reflecting the allocation of the charge between U.S. and foreign low-taxed jurisdictions.
Other Items
International sales as a percent of net sales were 7573 percent in the thirdfirst quarter of 20022003 compared to 7276 percent in the secondfourth quarter of 2002 and 68 percent in the third quarter of 2001. International sales as a percent of net sales were 6965 percent in the first nine monthsquarter of 2002 compared to 64 percent in2002. During the first nine monthsquarter of 2001. During the third quarter of2003 and 2002, approximately one percent of our net sales were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The impact on our operating results from changes in foreign currencies, the same ascurrency rates individually and in the second quarteraggregate has not been material, principally as a result of 2002. We do not have sales denominated in local currencies in countries that have highly inflationary economies.
Comparison of Segment Income (Loss)
We operated in two reportable segments: the Core Products segment, which reflects the aggregation of the PC processors, memory products and Other IC products operating segments, and the Foundry Services segment. The Core Products segment includes PC processors, Flash memory devices, EPROMs, embedded processors, platform products, personal connectivity solutions products and networking products. The Foundry Services segment included fees for products sold to Legerity and Vantis. We terminated our foundry services arrangement with Legerity in the third quarter of 2002 and will terminate the foundry service arrangement with Vantis in the third quarter of 2003. For a comparison of segment net sales, refer to the previous discussions on net sales by product group.

Dresden Term Loans and Dresden Guarantee
AMD Saxony, Limited Liability Company & Co. KG (formerly known as AMD Saxony Manufacturing GmbH) (AMD Saxony), an indirect wholly-ownedwholly owned German subsidiary of AMD, continues to facilitize Dresden Fab 30, which began production in the third quarter of 2000. AMD, the Federal Republic of Germany, the State of Saxony, and a consortium of banks are providing financing for the project.We currently estimate that the construction and facilitization costs of Dresden Fab 30 will be $2.6$2.7 billion when it is fully equipped by the end of 2005. As of September 29, 2002,March 30, 2003, we had invested $2.1$2.2 billion in AMD Saxony.
In March 1997, AMD Saxony entered into a loan agreement and other related agreements (the Dresden Loan Agreements) with a consortium of banks led by Dresdner Bank AG a German financial institution, in order to finance the project. The Dresden Loan Agreements were amended in February 1998, June 1999, February 2001, June 2002 and JuneDecember 2002.
Because most of the amounts under the Dresden Loan Agreements are denominated in deutsche marks (converted to euros), the dollar amounts set forth below are subject to change based on applicable conversion rates. We used the exchange rate that was permanently fixed on January 1, 1999, of 1.95583 deutsche marks to 1.001 euro for the conversion of deutsche marks to euros, and then used exchange rate of 1.020.93 euro to 1.001 U.S. dollar as of September 29, 2002,March 30, 2003, to valuetranslate the amounts denominated in deutsche marks.
The Dresden Loan Agreements, as amended, provide for the funding of the construction and facilitization of Dresden Fab 30. The funding consists of:
The Dresden Loan Agreements require that we partially fund Dresden Fab 30 project costs in the form of subordinated and revolving loans to, or equity investments in, AMD Saxony. In accordance with the terms of the Dresden Loan Agreements, as of September 29, 2002,March 30, 2003, we had invested $148provided $160 million in the form of subordinated loans, $257$294 million in the form of revolving loans and $286 million in the form of equity investments in AMD Saxony. These amounts have been eliminated in our consolidated financial statements.
In addition to support from AMD, the consortium of banks referred to above had made available up to $751$828 million in loans to AMD Saxony to help fund Dresden Fab 30 project costs. The loans have been fully drawn and a portion has been repaid. AMD Saxony had $552$593 million of such loans outstanding as of September 29, 2002,March 30, 2003, which are included in our consolidated balance sheets. Please refer to the Contractual Cash Obligation table, above, for repayment schedule.
Finally, pursuant to a Subsidy Agreement, as amended in August 2002, the Federal Republic of Germany and the State of Saxony are supporting the Dresden Fab 30 project, in accordance with the Dresden Loan Agreements, in the form of:
-29-
Of these amounts, AMD Saxony had received approximately $284$309 million in capital investment grants and allowances and $146allowance, $106 million in interest subsidies. Of theIn addition, AMD Saxony received advanced payments for interest subsidies received,amounting to $43 million, of which approximately $25$11 million is restricted from our access for more than one year, and areis therefore included in Other Assets. In addition to the above-mentionedabove mentioned subsidies, AMD Saxony had also received $25$31 million in research and development subsidies through September 29, 2002. These amountsMarch 30, 2003. Amounts received under the Subsidy Agreement are included inrecorded as a long-term liability on our consolidated financial statements.statements and are being amortized to operations ratably over the contractual life of the Subsidy Agreement as a reduction to operating expenses through December of 2008. The historical rates were used to translate the amounts denominated in deutsche marks (converted to euros) into U.S. dollars.
The Subsidy Agreement, as amended, imposes conditions on AMD Saxony, including the requirement to attain a certain employment levelsemployee headcount by December 2003 and to maintain those levelssuch headcount until December 2008. Noncompliance with the conditions of the grants, allowances and subsidies could result in the forfeiture of all or a portion of the future amounts to be received, as well as the repayment of all or a portion of amounts received to date. In December 2002, AMD Saxony reduced its anticipated December 2003 employment levels as a result of the 2002 Restructuring Plan (see Note 9 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Consequently, the anticipated headcount is below the level required to be maintained by the Subsidy Agreement. Based on these revised headcount estimates, the maximum amount of capital investment grants and allowances available under the Subsidy Agreement would be reduced from $449 million to $393 million. We adjusted the quarterly amortization of these amounts accordingly. There have been no conditions of noncompliance through September 29, 2002March 30, 2003 that would result in forfeiture of any of the grants and allowances.
The Dresden Loan Agreements, as amended, also require that we:
As AMD Saxony’s obligations under the Dresden Loan Agreements are included in our consolidated financial statements, no incremental liability is recorded under the Dresden guarantee.
-30-
AMD Saxony would be in default under the Dresden Loan Agreementsagreement if we, AMD Saxony, or AMD Saxony Holding GmbH (AMD Holding), AMD Saxony Admin GmbH or AMD Saxony LLC fail to comply with certain obligations thereunder or upon the occurrence of certain events, including:
Generally, any default with respect to borrowings made or guaranteed by AMD that results in recourse to us of more than $2.5 million, and that is not cured by us, would result in a cross-default under the Dresden Loan Agreements, the July 1999 Loan Agreement and the September 2002 Loan Agreement. As of September 29, 2002,March 30, 2003, we were in compliance with all conditions of the Dresden Loan Agreements.
In the event we are unable to meet our obligations to AMD Saxony as required under the Dresden Loan Agreements, we will be in default under the Dresden Loan Agreements, the July 1999 Loan Agreement and the September 2002 Loan Agreement, which would permit acceleration of certain indebtedness, which could have a material adverse effect on us. The occurrence of a default under these agreements would likely result in a cross-default under the Indentures governing our 4.75% Debentures and 4.50% Notes. We cannot assure that we will be able to obtain the funds necessary to fulfill these obligations. Any such failure would have a material adverse effect on us.

In June, 2002, in connection with the financing of the construction of this facility, AMD guaranteed the paymentMarch 30, 2003, we had capital lease obligations of BAC,approximately $40 million. Obligations under these lease agreements are collateralized by the assets leased and are payable through 2006. Leased assets consist principally of machinery and equipment.

FASL is continuing the facilitization of its second and third Flash memory device wafer fabrication facilities, FASL JV2 and FASL JV3. We expect FASL JV2 and JV3, including equipment, to cost approximately $2.1$1.8 billion when fully equipped. As of September 29, 2002,March 30, 2003, approximately $1.6 billion of these costs had been funded by cash generated primarily from FASL operations.operations and borrowings by FASL. These costs are incurred in Japanese yen and are, therefore, subject to change due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. We usedOn March 30, 2003, the exchange rate on September 29, 2002 of 122.83was 119.535 yen to 1.00one U.S. dollardollar. We used this rate to translate the amounts denominated in yen into U.S. dollars.
A significant portion of FASL capital expenditures in 2003 will continue to be funded by cash generated from FASL operations. However, to the extent that additional funds are required for the full facilitization of FASL JV2 and FASL JV3, we will be required to contribute cash or guarantee third-party loans in proportion to our 49.992 percent interest in FASL, up to 25 billion yen ($209 million). As of March 30, 2003, we had $76 million in loan guarantees outstanding with respect to these third-party loans.
In 2000, FASL further expanded its production capacity through a foundry arrangement with Fujitsu Microelectronics, Inc. (FMI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Fujitsu Limited. In connection with FMI equipping its wafer fabrication facility in Gresham, Oregon, (the Gresham Facility) to produce Flash memory devices for sale to FASL, we agreed to guarantee (the Guarantee) the repayment of up to $125 million to Fujitsu in connection withof Fujitsu’s obligationobligations as a co-signer with FMI under its global multicurrency revolving credit facility (the Credit Facility) with a third-party bank.bank (the Fujitsu Guarantee). On November 30, 2001, Fujitsu announced that it was closing the Gresham Facility, due to athe downturn of the Flashflash memory market. On March 26, 2002,To date we have not received notice from Fujitsu that FMI requested an advance of funds from Fujitsu to avoid defaulthas defaulted on any payments due under the Credit Facility, which notice is required as a condition to our obligations under the Guarantee. However, to date we have not received a demand for payment under the terms of the Guarantee from Fujitsu. Furthermore, weFacility. We continue to disagree with Fujitsu as to the amount, if any, of our obligations under the Fujitsu Guarantee. While we continue to discuss this matter with Fujitsu, we cannot atpredict the outcome of this time reasonably predict its outcome including any amountsmatter. Accordingly, we might be required to pay Fujitsu, and, therefore, have not recorded any liability in our consolidated financial statements associated with the Fujitsu Guarantee.
On March 31, 2003, AMD and Fujitsu Limited announced the execution of FASL’s capital expenditures in 2002 will continueMemorandum of Understanding to establish a new Flash memory semiconductor joint venture company. The new company, to be fundedcalled FASL LLC, would be 60 percent owned by cash generated from FASL’s operations. However,AMD and 40 percent owned by Fujitsu Limited and would integrate AMD and Fujitsu’s Flash memory assets and operations, including FASL. The new company is expected to begin operations in the third quarter of 2003. Because we will hold majority interest in FASL LLC and will control its operations, we expect to consolidate the operations and financial position of FASL LLC in our consolidated financial statements upon commencement of operations of FASL LLC.

Advanced Mask Technology Center Guarantee and BAC Guarantee
The Advanced Mask Technology Center GmbH & Co. KG (AMTC) and Maskhouse Building Administration GmbH &Co., KG (BAC) are joint ventures formed by us, Infineon Technologies AG and DuPont Photomasks, Inc. for the purpose of constructing and operating a new advanced photomask facility in proportionDresden, Germany. In June 2002, BAC entered into an $81 million bridge loan (Bridge Loan) with a consortium of banks led by Dresdner Bank for the purpose of constructing the facility. We guaranteed the payment obligations of BAC under the Bridge Loan, in an amount not to our 49.992 percentexceed $27 million plus interest and expenses. In December 2002, BAC and AMTC executed a facility agreement, consisting of a $130 million revolving credit facility (Revolving Loan) and an $81 million term loan facility (Term Loan), with a consortium of banks led by Dresdner Bank. The Term Loan will supercede and replace the Bridge Loan. We guaranteed the payment obligations of AMTC, in FASL, upan amount not to 25 billion yen ($204 million). Asexceed $35 million plus interest and expenses, under the Revolving Loan. In addition, we guaranteed the payment obligations of September 29,BAC, in an amount not to exceed $27 million plus interest and expenses, under the Term Loan.

Other Financing Activities
We plan to make capital investments of approximately $200$650 million during the remainder of 2002,2003, including amounts related to the continued facilitization of Dresden Fab 30. We regularly assess markets for external financing opportunities including capital leases, equity30 and debt.Fab 25, although the consummation of the proposed joint venture with Fujitsu could result in an increase in this amount. We believe that cash flows from our operations and current cash balances,together with available external financing activities,and the extension of existing facilities, will be sufficient to fund our operations and capital investments currently plannedfor at least the next twelve months.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141), StatementBoard issued Interpretation No.46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46). Variable interest entities often are created for a single specified purpose, for example, to facilitate securitization, leasing, hedging, research and development, or other transactions or arrangements. Formerly “Consolidation of Certain Special Purpose Entities” in its draft form, this interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No.51, “Consolidated Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “GoodwillStatements,” defines what these variable interest entities are and Other Intangible Asset” (SFAS 142)provides guidelines on identifying them and Statementassessing an enterprise’s interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity. Generally, FIN 46 applies to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. For existing variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003, the provision of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (SFAS 144) atthis interpretation will apply no later than the beginning of the 2002 fiscal year.

If we are unable to meet our obligations to AMD Saxony as required under these agreements, we will be in default under the Dresden Loan Agreement,Agreements, which would permit acceleration of $552$593 million of indebtedness, as well as acceleration by cross-default of our obligations under our other borrowing arrangements.
Our joint venture with Fujitsu Limited, FASL, continues to facilitize its manufacturing facilities in Aizu-Wakamatsu, Japan, known as FASL JV2 and FASL JV3. We expect FASL JV2 and FASL JV3, including equipment, to cost approximately $2.1$1.8 billion when fully equipped. As of September 29, 2002,March 30, 2003, approximately $1.6 billion of this cost had been funded. To the extent that additional funds are required for the full facilitization of FASL JV2 and FASL JV3, we will be required to contribute cash or guarantee third-party loans in proportion to our 49.992 percent interest in FASL.
We have a substantial amount of debt and debt service obligations, and may incur additional debt, that could adversely affect our financial position.
Our high degree of leverage may:
Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our debt or our guarantees of other parties’ debts will depend on our financial and operating performance, which may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and is subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors beyond our control.
We cannot assure you that we will continue to generate sufficient cash flow or that we will be able to borrow funds under our credit facilities in amounts sufficient to enable us to service our debt, or meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements.requirements or that we will be able
-39-
to extend the July 1999 Loan Agreement. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to borrow sufficient funds to service our debt, due to borrowing base restrictions or otherwise, we may be required to sell assets or equity, reduce capital expenditures, refinance all or a portion of our existing debt or obtain additional financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance our debt, sell assets or borrow more funds on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
Intense competition in the integrated circuit industry may materially adversely affect us.us
Intel Corporation’s dominance of the PC processor market may limit our ability to compete effectively in that market.
We expect Intel to maintain its dominant position in the marketplace as well as to continue to invest heavily in research and development, new manufacturing facilities and other technology companies. Intel has substantially greater financial resources than we do and accordingly expends substantially greater amounts on research and development than we do.
In marketing our microprocessors to OEMs and dealers, we depend on third-party companies other than Intel for the design and manufacture of core-logic chipsets, graphics chips, motherboards, BIOS software and other components. Over theIn recent years, many of these third-party
-40-
designers and manufacturers have lost significant market share to Intel or exited the business. In addition, these companies produce chipsets, motherboards, BIOS software and other components to support each new generation of Intel’s microprocessors, and Intel has significant leverage over their business opportunities.
Our microprocessors are not designed to function with motherboards and chipsets designed to work with Intel microprocessors. Our ability to compete with Intel in the market for seventh-generationAMD OpteronTM and eighth-generationAMD Athlon 64 microprocessors will depend on our ability to ensure that PC platforms are designed to support our microprocessors. A failure of the designers and producers of motherboards, chipsets and other system components to support our microprocessor offerings would have a material adverse effect on us.
If we are unable to develop, produce and successfully market higher-performing microprocessor products, we may be materially adversely affected.
To be successful, we must increase sales of our microprocessor products to existing customers and develop new customers in both consumer and commercial markets, particularly the latter. Our production and sales plans for microprocessors are subject to other risks and uncertainties, including:
-41-
Our ability to increase microprocessor product revenues and benefit fully from the substantial investments we have made and continue to make related to microprocessors depends on the continuing success of our AMD Athlon microprocessors and the success of future generations of microprocessors.microprocessors, most immediately the AMD Opteron processor, and later this year the AMD Athlon 64 processor. If we fail to achieve continued and expanded market acceptance of our seventh-generation microprocessors, we may be materially adversely affected.
We must introduce in a timely manner, and achieve market acceptance for, our eighth-generationAMD Opteron and AMD Athlon 64 microprocessors, or we will be materially adversely affected.
If we were to lose Microsoft Corporation’s support for our products, our ability to market our processors would be materially adversely affected.
The completion and impact of our restructuring program and cost reductions could adversely affect us.
-42-
Restructuring Plan will be realized. TheIf we do not execute the 2002 Restructuring Plan is expectedwell, the ultimate effects of it could prove to result in pre-tax restructuring and related charges to earnings of approximately several hundred million dollars in the fourth quarter of 2002. We also expect approximately one-third of the restructuring and related charges to consist of cash payments.
Weak market demand for our Flash memory products, the loss of a significant customer in the high-end mobile telephone market, or any difficulty ina lack of market acceptance of our transition to MirrorBit™ technology may have a material adverse effect on us.
In July 2002, we commenced production shipments of our first product with MirrorBit™ technology. Our MirrorBit technology is a new memory cell architecture that enables Flash memory products to hold twice as much data as standard Flash memory devices. A lack of customer or market acceptance or any substantial difficulty in transitioning our Flash memory products to MirrorBit technology or any future process technology could reduce our ability to be competitive in the market and could have a material adverse effect on us.
We rely on our joint venture with Fujitsu, FASL, and if that joint venture is terminated or amended significantly, we could be materially adversely affected. We continue to rely on our joint venture with Fujitsu, FASL, to manufacture our Flash memory devices. In addition, beginning in 2002, Fab 25 began operating as a foundry to FASL and as of the end of 2002, Fab 25 was devoted entirely to Flash memory device production for FASL.
On March 31, 2003, we and Fujitsu Limited announced the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding to establish a new Flash memory semiconductor joint venture company to be called FASL LLC, which would be based on the integration of our and Fujitsu’s Flash memory businesses. We expect to contribute our Flash memory group, our Fab 25 in Austin, Texas, our Submicron Development Center in Sunnyvale, California, and our assembly and test operations in Thailand, Malaysia and China. We expect Fujitsu to contribute its Flash memory business division and its Fujitsu Microelectronics (Malaysia) final assembly and test operations. We and Fujitsu would contribute our existing manufacturing joint venture, FASL, which would become a wholly owned subsidiary of FASL LLC.
The completion and any benefits of this proposed transaction are subject to, among other things, the following risks:
-43-
We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully implement this proposed transaction or that we will be able to achieve and sustain any benefit from its creation.
Our memory products are based on the NOR architecture and a significant market shift to the NAND architecture could materially adversely affect us. Our memory products are based on the NOR architecture, and any significant shift in the marketplace to products based on the NAND architecture will reduce the total market available to us and therefore reduce our market share, which could have a materially adverse affect on us.
Worldwide economic and political conditions may affect demand for our products and slow payment by our customers.
Our inability to adapt quickly to significant fluctuations in demand for our products relative to theManufacturing capacity of our manufacturing facilities could have a material adverse effect onutilization rates may adversely affect us.
There may also be situations in which our manufacturing facilities are inadequate to meet the demand for certain of our products. Our inability to obtain sufficient manufacturing capacity to meet demand, either in our own facilities or through foundry or similar arrangements with others, could have a material adverse effect on us.
Further, during periods when we are implementing new process technologies, our manufacturing facilities may not be fully productive. A substantial delay in the technology transitions in Dresden Fab 30 to smaller than 130-nanometer130 nanometer process technologies employing silicon on insulatorsilicon-on-insulator technology could have a material adverse effect on us.
-44-
At this time, the most significant risk is underutilization of our manufacturing capacity.
Unless we maintain manufacturing efficiency, our future profitability could be materially adversely affected.
From time to time, we have experienced difficulty in beginning production at new facilities, transferring production to other facilities, and in effecting transitions to new manufacturing processes that have caused us to suffer delays in product deliveries or reduced yields. We cannot be sure that we will not experience manufacturing problems in achieving acceptable yields or experience product delivery delays in the future as a result of, among other things, capacity constraints, construction delays, transferring production to other facilities, upgrading or expanding existing facilities or changing our process technologies, which could result in a loss of future revenues. Our results of operations could also be adversely affected by the increase in fixed costs and operating expenses related to increases in production capacity if revenues do not increase proportionately.
We cannot be certain that our substantial investments in research and development of process technologies will lead to improvements in technology and equipment used to fabricate our products or that we will have sufficient resources to invest in the level of research and development that is required to remain competitive.
If our microprocessors are not compatible with some or all industry-standard software and hardware, we could be materially adversely affected.
Our debt instruments impose restrictions on us that may adversely affect our ability to operate our business.
-45-
satisfy other financial condition tests when our net domestic cash is below specified amounts, and the Dresden Loan AgreementAgreements imposes restrictive covenants on AMD Saxony, including a prohibition on its ability to pay dividends.
Our ability to satisfy the covenants, financial ratios and tests of our debt instruments can be affected by events beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will meet those requirements. A breach of any of these covenants, financial ratios or tests could result in a default under our July 1999 Loan Agreement, our September 2002 Loan Agreement and/or the Dresden Loan Agreement.Agreements. The occurrence of an event of default under any of these agreements or under the indentureindentures governing our 4.75% Debentures and our 4.50% Notes would likely result in a cross-default under the agreements covering the other borrowings and would permit the applicable lenders or noteholders to declare all amounts outstanding under those borrowing arrangements to be immediately due and payable and permittingwould permit the lenders to terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If we were unable to repay those amounts, the lenders under the July 1999 Loan Agreement, the September 2002 Loan Agreement and the Dresden Loan AgreementAgreements could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness. We have pledged substantially all of our personal property, including inventory and accounts receivable, as security under our July 1999 Loan Agreement, and certain property, plant and equipment as security under our September 2002 Loan Agreement, and AMD Saxony has pledged substantially all of its property as security under the Dresden Loan Agreement.Agreements. If the lenders under any of the credit facilities or the noteholders or the trustee under the indentureindentures governing our 4.75% Debentures and our 4.50% Notes accelerate the repayment of borrowings, we cannot assure you that we will have sufficient assets to repay those borrowings and our other indebtedness.
Costs related to defective products could have a material adverse effect on us.
If essential raw materials are not available to manufacture our products, we could be materially adversely affected.
Our operations in foreign countries are subject to political and economic risks, which could have a material adverse effect on us.
The political and economic risks associated with our operations in foreign countries include:
-46-
any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.
As part of our business strategy, we are continuing to seek expansion of product sales in emerging overseas markets. We recently signed a research and development joint venture agreement with China Basic Education Software Company, Ltd. to develop hardware platforms
Our inability to continue to attract and retain key personnel may hinder our product development programs.
Our operating results are subject to substantial seasonal fluctuations.
Uncertainties involving the ordering and shipment of, and payment for, our products could materially adversely affect us.
-47-
anticipated orders to materialize could result in excess or obsolete inventory, which could result in write-downs of inventory.
During 2002, the markets in which our customers operate were characterized by a decline in end-user demand which reduced visibility of future demand for our products and resulted in high levels of inventories in the PC industry supply chain. In some cases, this led to delays in payments for our products. We believe that these and other factors could continue to materially adversely affect our revenues in the near term.
Our price protection obligations and return rights under specific provisions in our agreements with distributors may adversely affect us.
If we cannot adequately protect our technology or other intellectual property, in the United States and abroad, through patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks and other measures, we may lose a competitive advantage and incur significant expenses.
From time to time, we have been notified that we may be infringing intellectual property rights of others. If any such claims are asserted against us, we may seek to obtain a license under the third party’s intellectual property rights. We cannot assure you that all necessary licenses can be obtained on satisfactory terms, if at all. We could decide, in the alternative, to resort to litigation to challenge such claims. Such challenges could be extremely expensive and time-consuming and could have a material adverse effect on us. We cannot assure you that litigation related to the intellectual property rights of us and others will always be avoided or successfully concluded.
Failure to comply with any of the applicable environmental regulations could subject us toresult in a range of consequences including fines, suspension of production, alteration of our manufacturing process, cessation of operations or regulatory action.sales, and criminal and civil liabilities.

Terrorist attacks,External factors, such as the attacks that occurred in New YorkSARS virus and Washington, DC on September 11, 2001,potential terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war, may materially adversely affect us. Concerns about the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) virus are having an adverse effect upon the Asian economy and could affect demand for our products in Asia. In addition, if there were to be a case of SARS discovered in any of our operations in Asia, the measures to prevent the spread of the virus could disrupt our operations at that location. There have been no cases of SARS affecting our operations to date. Finally, the spread of SARS and the extent of local preventive measures could affect the production capabilities of manufacturers of our PCS products, which are located in Taiwan, or their ability to ship products to us on a timely basis.
Terrorist attacks may negatively affect our operations. These attacks or armed conflicts may directly impact our physical facilities or those of our suppliers or customers. Furthermore, these attacks may make travel and the transportation of our products more difficult and more expensive and ultimately affect our sales.
Also as a result of terrorism, the United States may be included in armed conflicts that could have a further impact on our sales, our supply chain, and our ability to deliver products to our customers. Political and economic instability in some regions of the world may also result and could negatively impact our business. The consequences of armed conflicts are unpredictable, and we may not be able to foresee events that could have an adverse effect on our business or your investment.
More generally, any of these events could cause consumer confidence and spending to decrease or result in increased volatility in the United States and worldwide financial markets and economy. They also could result in or exacerbate economic recession in the United States or abroad. Any of these occurrences could have a significant impact on our operating results, revenues and costs and may result in the volatility of the market price for our securities and on the future prices of our securities.
Our corporate headquarters, assembly and research and development activities are located in an earthquake zone and these operations could be interrupted in the event of an earthquake.
