Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein is financial information for Amkor Technology, Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and forward-looking statements relating to the second quarter and full year 2013 as presented in a press release dated April 25, 2013. The information in this Form 8-K and the exhibit attached hereto is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

Exhibit 99.1 discloses free cash flow, adjusted gross margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share. Free cash flow, adjusted gross margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. We believe free cash flow to be relevant and useful information to our investors because it provides them with additional information in assessing our liquidity, capital resources and financial operating results. Our management uses free cash flow in evaluating our liquidity, our ability to service debt and our ability to fund capital additions. However, free cash flow has certain limitations, including that it does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other, non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service, are not deducted from the measure. The amount of mandatory versus discretionary expenditures can vary significantly between periods. Adjusted gross margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2012 exclude the impact of a loss contingency we recognized related to our pending patent license arbitration with Tessera, Inc. However, these measures have limitations, including that they exclude the charges for the Tessera arbitration award, which is an amount that the company may ultimately have to pay in cash. Furthermore, the factors affecting the calculation of the arbitration award are complex and subject to determination by the arbitration panel. Therefore, the final amount of the loss may be more than the amount we have recognized. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, other measures of liquidity or financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, our definitions of free cash flow, adjusted gross margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The non-GAAP measures included in our press release have been reconciled to the nearest U.S. GAAP measure as required under SEC rules regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures.
