LSI Logic generates positive operating cash flow for 3rd consecutive quarter; revenues up 18% Q4 2001 - Q4 2002
MILPITAS, Calif., January 22, 2003 – LSI Logic Corporation (NYSE: LSI) today reported revenues of $480 million in the fourth quarter of 2002, a 1.5 percent sequential decrease compared to the $487 million reported in the third quarter, and an increase of 18 percent over the $406 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2001.
The 2002 fourth quarter GAAP** net loss was $31 million or 8 cents a diluted share. The third quarter net loss was $28 million or 7 cents a diluted share. The company reported a GAAP net loss of $250 million or 68 cents a diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2001.
Pro forma* 2002 fourth quarter net income was $5 million or 1 cent a diluted share. Pro forma third quarter 2002 net income was $17 million or 4 cents a share. The company reported a pro forma net loss of $74 million or 20 cents a diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2001.
Cash and short-term investments increased $47 million to $990 million at the end of the fourth quarter. During the quarter, the company repurchased $48 million of convertible notes, reducing its outstanding convertible debt.
"After generating 11 percent sequential revenue growth in the third quarter, our order input rate slowed in the fourth quarter," said Wilfred Corrigan, LSI Logic chairman and chief executive officer. "The strength of our two storage businesses was offset by declines in Consumer and Communications. As a result of this lower fourth quarter order-input rate, we are projecting first quarter revenues in the range of $370 million to $390 million. Entering 2003, our outlook is for the first quarter to be the low point for revenues, and for the second quarter to be up substantially.
"Consumer, Storage Components and Storage Systems are expected to be the drivers for the second quarter improvement. The Communications sector has the least visibility, but generally we believe the enterprise sector is stabilizing while the WAN sector is unlikely to demonstrate improvement until late 2003 or 2004. We expect our overall business will regain momentum in the second quarter and return to pro forma profitability in the third quarter."
LSI Logic recorded 2002 revenues of $1.82 billion, a 2 percent increase over the $1.78 billion in 2001. The GAAP 2002 net loss was $292 million or 79 cents a diluted share. The Pro Forma 2002 net loss was $42 million or 11 cents a diluted share. "We are generating positive operating cash flow, controlling operating expenses and reducing our long-term debt," said Bryon Look, LSI Logic chief financial officer.
