TSMC Reports Second Quarter EPS of NT$0.96

HSINCHU, Taiwan, July 26 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TSMC today announced consolidated revenue of NT$74.92 billion, net income of NT$25.48 billion, and diluted earnings per share of NT$0.96 (US$0.15 per ADS unit) for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Year-over-year, second quarter revenue decreased 8.8% while net income and diluted EPS both decreased 25.1%. On a sequential basis, second quarter results represent a 15.4% increase in revenue, and an increase of 35.3% both in net income and in diluted EPS. All figures were prepared in accordance with R.O.C. GAAP on a consolidated basis.

Second quarter results were in-line with the guidance given on April 26. Advanced process technologies (0.13-micron and below) accounted for 53% of wafer revenues with 90-nanometer process technology accounting for 26% and 65- nanometer reaching 3% of total wafer sales. Gross margin was 43%, operating margin was 33%, and net margin increased 5 percentage points to 34% from the previous quarter.

"The recovery of our business, which started in March, has continued through the second quarter, and the momentum is expected to last through the third quarter," said Lora Ho, VP and Chief Financial Officer of TSMC. "Relative to the second quarter, the computer segment shows the strongest growth while the communication and consumer segments' growth will also continue, albeit at a lower pace," said Ho. "Based on our current business outlook, management's expectations for third quarter 2007 performance are as follows":

    -- Revenue is expected to be between NT$85 billion and NT$87 billion;
    -- Gross profit margin is expected to be between 43% and 45%;
    -- Operating profit margin is expected to be between 33% and 35%.

       current period presentation.



    Operating Expenses:

Total operating expenses for 2Q07 were NT$7.4 billion, compared to NT$6.7 billion in the prior quarter. Total operating expenses represented 10% of net sales, down slightly from 10.4% in first quarter of 2007.

Research and development expenditures increased by NT$359 million sequentially, largely due to increased R&D spending on 45nm and 32nm related projects.

SG&A expenses were NT$3.1 billion for the quarter, an increase of NT$354 million quarter-over-quarter, mainly due to higher level of business activities.



    III - 3. Non-Operating Items

    Non-Operating Items:

Combined result from non-operating income and long-term investments was a gain of NT$3.3 billion for second quarter of 2007.

Compared to 1Q07, higher non-operating income was mainly due to higher interest income, an increase in mark-to-market adjustment on certain marketable securities, and lawsuit settlement received from SMIC.

Net investment income increased slightly to reach NT$488 million in the quarter, reflecting improved operating performance at SSMC.

    Liquidity Analysis:

Total cash and marketable securities increased by NT$16 billion in the second quarter of 2007, mainly due to free cash flows generated during the quarter. As a result, TSMC ended the quarter with NT$305 billion in total current assets, compared to NT$286 billion at the end of the previous quarter.

Total current liabilities were NT$132 billion at the end of the quarter, compared to NT$45 billion at the end of the previous quarter. The increase was mainly due to NT$ 77.5 billion and NT$4.6 billion payables accrued for cash dividends and employee bonuses, respectively.

As a result, net working capital decreased to NT$172 billion with a current ratio of 2.3.

    Summary of Cash Flow:

During second quarter of 2007, TSMC generated NT$35 billion in cash from operating activities, mainly from net income of NT$25 billion and depreciation & amortization of NT$20 billion, offset in part by the change in net working capital.

Net cash used in investment activities totaled NT$10 billion, mainly due to capital expenditures of NT$25 billion, partially offset by an NT$16 billion in net proceeds from the disposition of marketable financial instruments.

Net cash used in financing activities was NT$1 billion during the quarter.

As a result, TSMC ended the quarter with a cash balance of NT$163 billion, NT$23 billion higher than in 1Q07.
