Intersil Corporation Reports First Quarter 2005
Financial Results
— Increases revenue and income from the fourth quarter
— Generates $35.8 million of cash from operations
Milpitas, CA, April 27, 2005 – Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ: ISIL), a world leader in the design and manufacture of high performance analog semiconductors, today reported financial results for the quarter ended April 1, 2005. On a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, net revenue was $128.1 million for the first quarter of 2005 compared to revenue of $127.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2004, and $137.4 million for the first quarter of 2004. Net income for the first quarter of 2005 was $12.8 million or $0.09 diluted earnings per share as compared to net income of $15.8 million or $0.11 diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2004. For the first quarter of 2004, net income was $27.3 million or $0.19 diluted earnings per share.
Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2005 was $17.5 million or $0.12 diluted earnings per share. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $16.3 million or $0.11 diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2004 and $26.4 million or $0.19 diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2004.
“We are off to a great start for 2005. Orders grew significantly over the fourth quarter as we saw strength across a broad set of our product families,” stated Rich Beyer, Intersil’s president and CEO. “We experienced sequential growth in both revenue and non-GAAP earnings, despite the normal seasonality associated with our computing and consumer markets. Gross margins increased slightly to 55.3%, and we decreased our inventory by an additional $2.6 million. Operating cash flow for the quarter was $35.8 million, or 28% of sales, and we exited the quarter with over $700 million in cash and marketable securities.”
By end market, Intersil’s first quarter sales were as follows: industrial (29% of sales), communications (24%), computing (24%), and high-end consumer (23%). “The industrial market experienced the strongest sequential growth, driven by an increase in seasonal demand and the acceptance of several new products introduced over the past two years,” said Rich Beyer. “The communications and consumer markets experienced single-digit growth, as we continue to expand our product offerings.

The computing market was down sequentially as we expected; we did, however, experience solid growth from our notebook power management products.”
The Company repurchased approximately $24 million, or 1.4 million shares of its stock, under a previously announced stock repurchase program. Additionally, as a result of Intersil’s continued positive cash flow and strong balance sheet position, the Company’s board of directors authorized and declared the payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.04 per share of common stock. Payment of the dividend will be made on May 27, 2005 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 17, 2005.
Business Outlook
“We believe our orders momentum, the acceptance of our new products and the continued strength from our design wins position us for solid revenue and earnings growth in the second quarter,” said Mr. Beyer. “We expect our second quarter revenue to grow between 4 to 6% from the first quarter. We also expect non-GAAP earnings per share of approximately $0.13 to $0.14.”

NON-GAAP REPORTING
In addition to GAAP reporting, Intersil reports net income or loss, as well as earnings per share and gross margin, on a non-GAAP basis. This non-GAAP earnings information excludes amortization of intangibles and other unusual items, such as gains or losses on strategic investments or exited product groups, impairment and restructuring costs and related tax effects.

Intersil also uses this information internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations and to determine incentive compensation. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP net income is included in the tables below.
