Aliso Viejo, Calif., October 19, 2005 — QLogic Corporation (Nasdaq:QLGC), the leader in Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs), today announced its second quarter financial results for the period ended October 2, 2005.
As previously announced, the Company has entered into an agreement to sell its hard disk drive controller and tape drive controller business to Marvell Technology Group, Ltd. for $225 million. This transaction is expected to close by the middle of the third fiscal quarter. As a result of this transaction, the financial information for the hard disk drive controller and tape drive controller business has been presented as discontinued operations for all periods.
Net revenue from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was a record $119.0 million and increased 16% from $102.3 million in the comparable quarter last year. During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, revenue from SAN Infrastructure Products, which are comprised of HBAs, switches and silicon, was $110.5 million, an increase of 21% from the comparable quarter last year and 3% sequentially.
Income from continuing operations on a GAAP basis for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was $30.5 million, or $0.34 per share on a diluted basis, an increase of 20% from the second quarter of last year and 8% sequentially.
Net revenue from continuing operations for the first six months of fiscal 2006 was $234.4 million, up 17% from the same period of fiscal year 2005. Income from continuing operations on a GAAP basis for the
1
first six months of fiscal 2006 was $58.8 million, or $0.64 per share on a diluted basis, an increase of 22% from the same period last year.
Net income on a GAAP basis, including the results from discontinued operations, for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was $43.0 million, or $0.48 per share on a diluted basis. Net income on a GAAP basis for the first six months of fiscal 2006 was $84.8 million, or $0.93 per share on a diluted basis.
During the second quarter, the Company repurchased $247 million of its common stock on the open market. In October, the Company repurchased an additional $103 million of common stock, thereby completing the current $350 million stock repurchase plan announced in August 2005. Since fiscal year 2003, the Company has repurchased a total of $550 million of the Company’s common stock under programs authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The Company generated $68 million in cash from continuing operations during the first six months of fiscal 2006. The Company’s balance sheet at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was highlighted by $634 million of cash and short-term investments.
“We are pleased with our record revenue performance from continuing operations, which was driven by a 21% growth in our SAN Infrastructure Products from the prior year quarter,” said H. K. Desai, the Company’s chief executive officer and president. “The second quarter was also highlighted by our execution against our $350 million stock repurchase program, which was completed in October.”

A summary of these non-GAAP financial measures and a complete reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, as well as a description of the reasons that management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and the additional purposes for which management uses these non-GAAP financial measures is presented in the accompanying financial schedules.

Non-GAAP Financial Measurements
The non-GAAP financial measurements contained herein are a supplement to the corresponding financial measurements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information presented excludes non-cash merger related stock compensation charges, which relate to the Company’s acquisition of Little Mountain Group, Inc. in January 2001. Such non-cash charges ended during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005. Management believes this item is not indicative of the Company’s on-going core operating performance.
The Company has presented non-GAAP income from continuing operations and non-GAAP diluted income from continuing operations per share, on a basis consistent with its historical presentation, to assist investors in understanding the Company’s core income from continuing operations and non-GAAP diluted income from continuing operations per share on an on-going basis. The non-GAAP presentation also enhances comparisons of the Company’s core net profitability with historical periods and comparisons of the Company’s core net profitability with the corresponding results for competitors. Management believes that on-going income from continuing operations and diluted income from continuing operations per share are important measures in the evaluation of the Company’s profitability. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the adjustment described above, and thus provide an overall measure of the Company’s on-going net profitability and related profitability on a diluted per share basis.
Management uses non-GAAP income from continuing operations in its evaluation of the Company’s core after-tax results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that this measure is an important component of its internal performance measurement process. In addition, the Company prepares and maintains its budgets and forecasts for future periods on a basis consistent with this non-GAAP financial measurement.
The non-GAAP financial measurements presented herein have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of the Company’s business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP information presented by the Company may be different from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
