OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

Second Quarter and 1st Half Year of Fiscal Year 2003

 

                  Second quarter revenues were Euro 1.48 billion, an increase of 3 % sequentially and 13 % year-on-year. This increase was mainly driven by increased sales for memory products, a strong performance in the automotive & industrial segment, and strong year-on-year improvement in secure mobile solutions.

                  Continued gain of market share in key segments despite ongoing difficult market environment.

                  Quarterly net loss of Euro 328 million; quarterly EBIT loss of Euro 223 million was primarily attributable to disappointing results in the memory products segment, resulting from significant reduction in DRAM selling prices.

                  Continued solid cash position and significantly improved cash flow from operations.

 

Infineon Technologies ended the second quarter of fiscal year 2003 on March 31, 2003, with revenues from continuing operations of Euro 1.48 billion, an increase of 3 % sequentially and 13 % year-on-year.  The net loss in the second quarter amounted to Euro 328 million compared to a net loss of Euro 40 million in the previous quarter and Euro 108 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year. Basic and diluted loss per share from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal year 2003 was Euro 0.45, compared to a loss per share from continuing operations of Euro 0.06 in the previous quarter and Euro 0.16 year-on-year. However, significantly increased productivity could not compensate for the dramatic price decline for memory products. The quarterly net loss reflects the strong price decline for DDR memory chips as well as continued pricing pressure in most segments. The second quarter tax provision includes the impact of providing for a valuation allowance in tax jurisdictions which have incurred cumulative losses over the preceding three year period.

 

We generated revenue growth and produced further market share gains (based upon industry data published by Semiconductor Industry Association) in a continued difficult market environment, which was mainly driven by increased sales for memory products and the performance of the automotive & industrial segment.

 

Revenues outside Europe constituted 56 % of total revenues, up from 55 % in the previous quarter, reflecting our increased sales in Asia, including Japan.  As of March 31, 2003, we had approximately 31,200 employees worldwide, including about 5,500 engaged in research and development.

 

Pursuant to an agreement reached with Osram GmbH, the Company transferred all its opto-electronic activities to Osram as of March 31, 2003. Accordingly, the results of the opto-electronics business (previously in the other operating segment) are reflected as a discontinued operation, and the operating results (e.g. sales, cost of sales and operating expenses) through March 31, 2003 have

 

1



 

been reclassified to ensure comparability with the results of our continuing operations.

 

Segment revenue developments during the second quarter of the 2003 financial year as compared to the previous quarter of the second quarter of the 2002 financial year were as follows:

 

                  The Automotive & Industrial group’s second quarter revenues were Euro 354 million, an increase of 6 % sequentially and of 18 % year-on-year. The increase resulted mainly from higher sales volumes in automotive power as well as power management & supply products.

                  Wireline Communications revenues improved to Euro 112 million in the second quarter, an increase of 6 % from the previous quarter, and 17 % year-on-year. The sequential revenue increase was principally due to higher sales in the Asian markets of Ethernet over VDSL access technology and next generation ADSL technology for central office applications. This reflects the successful alignment of our portfolio of leading edge broadband access products to current market needs.

                  Secure Mobile Solutions’ second quarter revenues were Euro 376 million, a reduction of 9 % from the previous quarter, but an increase of 27 % compared to the second quarter of last year. The sequential quarterly revenue decline reflects an anticipated seasonal weakening of demand for mobile phones following the Christmas season.

                  The Memory Products segment’s second quarter revenues were Euro 609 million, an increase of 12 % sequentially and 4 % year-on-year, based on increased volumes, offsetting sharply lower prices. Also included in memory products revenues in 2003 was Euro 60 million of previously deferred licensing revenue related to the ProMOS joint venture, which was recognized as a result of the extinguishment of ProMOS indebtedness subject to our guarantee. From the beginning of January the spot market price for our major volume product, 256M DDR, declined by approximately 50 % from $ 6 to slightly below $ 3 by the end of February. The price appreciated moderately in March to slightly above $ 3 at the end of the second quarter, according to DRAM Exchange.

                  Revenues in the other operating segment were Euro 26 million, a decline of 30 % sequentially, but an increase of 13 % year-on-year.

 

Expenditures for Research and Development in the second quarter totaled Euro 254 million, or 17 % of sales, a moderate reduction from Euro 265 million sequentially. SG&A expenses totaled Euro 164 million or 11 % of total revenues, declining from Euro 172 million or 12 % of total revenues in the previous quarter. The decrease in these expenditures was mainly due to our ongoing cost reduction measures.

 

Other operating income (loss) for the six month period ending March 31 declined from Euro 42 million in 2002 to negative Euro 7 million. This decline is attributable to the gains recognized in 2002 relating

 

2



 

to the sale of the gallium arsenide and infrared component businesses. Equity in (losses) earnings of associated companies improved from a loss of Euro 45 million to earnings of Euro 25 million for the six month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively. This variance is primarily related to improved operating results at the ProMOS joint venture. Other expense net, for the March 31 six month period declined from Euro 70 million in 2002 to Euro 7 million in 2003, due principally to reduced foreign currency contract losses.

 

Quarterly EBIT (earnings from continuing operations before interest, minority interest and taxes) amounted to a loss of Euro 223 million, compared to a loss of Euro 31 million in the previous quarter, and to a loss of Euro 176 million in the second quarter of the last fiscal year, principally attributable to declining results in the memory products segment.

 

Results for First Half of Fiscal Year 2003

 

Total revenues from continuing operations for the first half of fiscal year 2003 were Euro 2.93 billion, an increase of 28 % from Euro 2.28 billion in the same period last year. Net loss amounted to Euro 368 million, compared to a net loss of Euro 439 million year-on-year. The first half of fiscal year 2003 tax expense includes the impact of providing a valuation allowance in tax jurisdictions which have incurred cumulative losses over the preceding three year period. EBIT for the first half of this fiscal year was a loss of Euro 254 million, a significant improvement from an EBIT loss of Euro 735 million in the first half of the last fiscal year.

 

Liquidity

 

Infineon’s gross cash position, representing cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash amounted to Euro 1.5 billion at March 31, 2003, compared to Euro 2.0 billion at September 30, 2002. The decrease in gross cash was mainly due to investing activities, principally capital expenditures, exceeding cash flow from operations during the six month period.  Free cash flow, representing cash from operating and investing activities excluding purchases or sales of marketable securities, significantly improved to negative Euro 452 million, compared to negative Euro 634 million, which is an improvement of Euro 182 million during the six month period ended March 31, 2003. This improvement, despite higher capital expenditures, mainly stems from higher operating cash flow.

 

Outlook for the second half of fiscal year 2003

 

The current tough global economic environment and the international uncertainties do not allow for any significant market visibility. Over the last three months, we have seen a further positive development of demand in most of our segments, although price pressure remains intense in all segments. Looking forward, we expect a further positive development of demand in most of our segments. To compensate for the ongoing pricing pressure, we will continue to focus on improving productivity, further reducing costs and implementing our restructuring programs, as well as our

 

3



 

Agenda 5-to-1. As announced in April 2003, we anticipate further reducing our workforce by up to 900 employees.

 

For our Secure Mobile Solutions segment, we expect a further moderate increase of demand for GSM/GPRS mobile handsets, which is likely to have a positive effect on the demand for Bluetooth products as well. We also expect an ongoing difficult market environment with continued strong pricing pressure for silicon discretes.

 

Industry analysts are predicting a 5 % reduction of capital expenditures in the global wireline telecom infrastructure market in 2003, but with regional differences, including moderate growth in Europe. We expect continuing pricing pressure in our fiber optics business, but improved demand for broadband access technology (ADSL, VDSL), particularly in Asia and Japan.

 

In the automotive electronics and automotive semiconductor markets, we expect the pricing pressure to continue. However, the company anticipates that further productivity increases combined with its strong portfolio for automotive power and power management and supply products should lead to additional market share gains.

 

At the beginning of the current third quarter, we have seen strong demand from OEMs for memory products and a slightly improved pricing environment. However, near-term visibility for the DRAM market remains poor. A positive development of demand and a sustained improvement in prices are still dependent upon an acceleration of the corporate IT equipment replacement cycle, increased infrastructure investments, and higher Megabit per box sales.

Infineon Technologies AG and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(euro in millions, except where otherwise stated)

 

1.              Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Infineon Technologies AG and its subsidiaries (“Infineon” or “the Company”) as of and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2002, included in the Company’s Form 20-F for the year ended September 30, 2002.

 

The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent amounts and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

All amounts herein are shown in millions of euro (or “€”) except where otherwise stated. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2003, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three and six months then ended are also presented in U.S. dollars (“$”), solely for the convenience of the reader, at the rate of one euro = $1.0900, the noon buying rate on March 31, 2003.

 

2.              Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, which addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities which have one or both of the following characteristics: (1) The equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without support from other parties and (2) the equity investors lack one or more of the defined essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest. This Interpretation requires existing unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse risks among the participating parties. This Interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It also applies in the first fiscal year or interim period after June 15, 2003 to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company does not expect the adoption of Interpretation No. 46 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure”, which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation. Finally, it amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting”, to require disclosure about those effects in interim financial information. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148 effective from October 1, 2002 (see note 16). The pro-forma impact of adopting the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation under SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, is disclosed in note 16.

 

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others”, which requires a company upon issuance of a guarantee, to recognize an initial liability for the fair value of obligations assumed under the guarantee and provides additional disclosure requirements. The initial recognition requirements of Interpretation No. 45 are effective for guarantees issued or modified after March 31, 2003. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of Interpretation No. 45 effective October 1, 2002 (see note 18).  The Company does not expect the adoption of Interpretation No. 45 to have a

 

10



 

material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)”. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for the cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only when, and in the period in which, the liability is incurred. Under EITF No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined in EITF No. 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entity’s commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. Accordingly, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 146 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. SFAS No. 144 retains the current requirement to recognize an impairment loss only if the carrying amounts of long-lived assets to be held and used are not recoverable from their expected undiscounted future cash flows. However, goodwill is no longer required to be allocated to these long-lived assets when determining their carrying amounts. SFAS No. 144 requires that a long-lived asset to be abandoned, exchanged for a similar productive asset, or distributed to owners in a spin-off be considered held and used until it is disposed. However, SFAS No. 144 requires the depreciable life of an asset to be abandoned be revised. SFAS No. 144 requires all long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale be recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and to cease depreciation (amortization). Therefore, discontinued operations are no longer measured on a net realizable value basis, and future operating losses are no longer recognized before they occur. Effective October 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and (or) normal use of the asset. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The fair value of the liability is added to the carrying amount of the associated asset and this additional carrying amount is depreciated over the life of the asset. The liability is accreted at the end of each period through charges to operating expense. If the obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, a gain or loss on settlement will be recognized. Effective October 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 143, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

3.              Acquisitions

 

In January 2003, the Company increased its shareholding in Infineon Technologies Flash (formerly Ingentix) to 70% and contributed cash and converted loans to equity in the aggregate amount of € 12. The existing flash memory activities were also extended in the field of core flash products.

 

4.              Discontinued Operation and Divestitures

 

Pursuant to an agreement reached between the Company and Osram GmbH (“Osram”), the Company transitioned all its opto-electronic activities to Osram as of March 31, 2003. The agreement provides for the transfer of all customer relationships and related backlog, the cancellation by the Company of all of its opto-electronic distribution agreements, as well as providing the Company with certain rights of return related to unsold inventory as of March 31, 2003. The Company did not incur a loss on the discontinuation of the opto-electronic business. Accordingly, the results of operations of the optoelectronics are presented as a discontinued operation as of March 31, 2003.

5.              Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding plus all additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities or ordinary share equivalents had been issued.

8.              Long-term Investments, net

 

On November 13, 2002, the Company entered into agreements with Nanya relating to a strategic cooperation in the development of DRAM products and the construction and operation of a 300-millimeter manufacturing facility in Taiwan.

 

Pursuant to the agreements, the Company and Nanya will develop advanced 90-nanometer and 70-nanometer technology. The parties anticipate that the development efforts will be completed no later than April 30, 2005 and the costs will be borne two-thirds by the Company and one-third by Nanya. In connection with these development efforts, the Company has granted Nanya a license to use its 0.11-micron technology in Nanya’s existing operations. Nanya has agreed to pay the Company $ 95 million, principally over a period ending on September 30, 2003.

 

The new 300-millimeter manufacturing facility will employ the technology developed under the aforementioned agreements to manufacture DRAM products and is anticipated to be completed in two phases. The first phase is projected to be completed by the second half of the 2004 calendar year. The second phase is anticipated to be completed in the 2006 financial year. The joint venture partners are obligated to each purchase one-half of the facility’s production based in part on market prices.

 

On October 4, 2002, the Company announced that it has cancelled its shareholders’ agreement with Mosel Vitelic Inc. (“MVI”) relating to their ProMOS joint venture, effective January 1, 2003, due to material breaches of the terms of the shareholders’ agreement by MVI. The product purchase and capacity reservation agreement, which establishes the rights and obligations of both shareholders to purchase product from ProMOS, also terminated on January 1, 2003. MVI now purchases 100% of the products manufactured by ProMOS, which in the opinion of Company management, would require the consent of the ProMOS board of directors pursuant to ProMOS articles of incorporation and such consent was not obtained. On January 27, 2003, the Company terminated its technology license agreement with ProMOS. ProMOS continues to utilize Infineon technology despite the termination of the technology license agreement.

 

In January and February 2003, the Company made payments on behalf of ProMOS aggregating € 60 satisfying indebtedness of ProMOS which was subject to a guarantee by the Company. In parellel the Company recognized deferred licensing revenue of a similar amount that was fully paid and for which the revenue recognition process was complete. Pursuant to an agreement between MVI, ProMOS and the Company, such amounts paid by the Company on behalf of ProMOS were offset against its product purchase liability to ProMOS. Furthermore, pursuant to an agreement between MVI and ProMOS dated January 28, 2003, ProMOS transferred to MVI $ 99 of its accounts receivables against the Company in exchange for unidentified consideration. In February 2003, MVI, ProMOS and the Company agreed to offset such MVI accounts receivables against the Company of $ 99 against the accounts receivables of IFX against MVI. MVI then made an additional payment of $ 5 to the Company satisfying its obligation. At March 31, 2003, the Company’s obligation to ProMOS is $ 37. At March 31, 2003, deferred revenue relating to the terminated technology transfer agreement was € 36 which will be recognized upon the ultimate resolution of the dispute between the parties.

 

ProMOS and the Company have filed a series of preliminary injunctions, criminal and civil complaints against each other and representatives of each party relating to actions taken at the January 10, 2003 special meeting of the shareholders of ProMOS, alleged actions of breach of fiduciary duty and trust, as well as actions associated with the use of the Company’s licensed technology by ProMOS. The Company intends to both vigorously defend itself and its representatives in all courses of action initiated by ProMOS, as well as vigorously pursue its actions filed against ProMOS and its representatives. The shareholders agreement, the product purchase and capacity reservation agreement and the technology license agreement provide for the use of an arbitration proceeding to resolve certain disputes. ProMOS has initiated an arbitration proceeding relating to this dispute pursuant to International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) regulations which is to be conducted in Munich, Germany. The Company has received the statement of claim and is in the process of responding.

 

The Company has become aware, through published reports in media outlets, that MVI has apparently defaulted on indebtedness of NTD 4.7 billion, which is collateralized by a substantial portion of MVI’s stockholdings in ProMOS. These published reports indicate that a bondholders meeting will be held on May 28, 2003 to discuss the resolution of this matter, including the potential disposition of such collateral. The Company can not conclude on the potential impact this event may have on its investment in ProMOS.

 

14



 

During the six months ended March 31, 2003, the Company realized an aggregate € 3 loss on the sale of ProMOS shares. At March 31, 2003, the Company’s ownership interest in ProMOS was 26.1% and the carrying value of the Company’s investment was € 213.  In January 2003, the Company announced its intention to liquidate its investment in ProMOS, depending on market conditions, and in accordance with Taiwanese security regulations. The Company does not believe that the liquidation of its ProMOS investment will result in material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

On October 1, 2002, the Company, Agere Systems Inc. and Motorola Inc., incorporated StarCore LLC, based in Austin, Texas. Each of the joint venture partners have an equal (one third) ownership interest. The Company contributed intellectual property, other assets and cash with an aggregate value of € 25. StarCore focuses on developing, standardizing and proliferating Digital Signal Processor (DSP) core technology.

Deferred tax benefits are recognized to the extent it is considered more likely than not that such benefits will be realized in future years. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate the appropriate character of future taxable income sufficient to utilize loss carry-forwards or tax credits before their expiration. As a result of cumulative losses in certain tax jurisdictions over a three-year period, the Company did not recognize deferred tax benefits relating to those tax jurisdictions for the three and six months ended March 31, 2003. The Company expects to continue providing a full valuation allowance on deferred tax benefits arising in such tax jurisdictions, until such time as taxable income is generated from operations that would utilize the tax loss carry-forwards in those jurisdictions.

 

At March 31, 2003, Infineon had tax loss carry-forwards of €1,844 and tax credit carry-forwards of €76. Such tax loss and credit carry-forwards are from both German and non-German operations, are generally limited to use by the particular entity that generated the loss or credit and do not expire under current law, except for tax loss carry-forwards of € 91 which expire in 2020 and 2021.

 

12. Restructuring

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company continued to take further measures under its Impact programs aimed at improving operational efficiencies and reducing costs, which amounted to € 11. In addition, € 11, which had previously been accrued under restructuring, was forgiven in partial consideration for the execution of a service agreement.

 

The development of the restructuring liability during the six months ended March 31, 2003, is as follows:

Pursuant to APB No. 25, the Company did not recognize compensation expense for stock options issued during the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively, because the option terms and exercise price are fixed and the exercise price exceeded the market price of the underlying shares on each grant date. If the Company had accounted for stock option grants under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123, and thereby recognized compensation expense based on the fair values over the respective option vesting periods, net loss and loss per share would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

17. Commitments and Contingencies

 

On August 7, 2000 and August 8, 2000, Rambus Inc. (“Rambus”), filed separate actions against the Company in the U.S. and Germany. Rambus alleges that the Company has infringed patents owned by Rambus that relate to the SDRAM and DDR DRAM products. The SDRAM product is a significant component of the Company’s DRAM product line. If the Company were to be enjoined from producing SDRAM and DDR DRAM products, the Company’s financial position and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected, as the Company would have to discontinue the SDRAM and DDR DRAM product lines or enter into a licensing arrangement with Rambus, which could require the payment of substantial licensing fees. The affected products currently constitute substantially all of the products of the Memory Products segment. On May 4, 2001 and May 9, 2001, the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia dismissed all 57 of Rambus’ patent infringement claims against the Company. In addition, the court found that Rambus committed fraud by its conduct in the JEDEC standard setting organization and awarded damages to Infineon. On January 29, 2003 the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit revised the District Court’s claim construction on 4 claim terms, and remanded the infringement case back to the District Court for a jury trial on 4 remaining claims. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations of infringement. The Court of Appeals also reversed the District Court’s finding that Rambus had committed fraud by its conduct in JEDEC. On February 26, 2003, the Company asked for a rehearing of this decision at the Court of Appeals, but can not conclude as to the likelihood of a favorable outcome or whether the Company will ultimately prevail in the matter.

 

The initial hearings on the German action commenced in May 2001. In its brief on February 9, 2001, Rambus amended its initial injunctive relief complaint to include a request for payment of damages for alleged infringement of the patents. No amount of damages have yet been declared. The initial hearing

 

20



 

took place on May 18, 2001, at which time the Court noted the decisions of the parallel infringement suit in the U.S. The court has appointed a technical expert to render an opinion on the infringement issue. The opinion has been rendered but no decision has been made by the court yet. In addition, the European Patent office declared on September 11, 2002, that the Rambus Patent had been unduly broadened, thus making it easier for the Company to defend against allegations of direct infringement. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.

 

In October 1999, Deutsche Telekom AG (‘‘DT’’) notified the Company of a potential contractual warranty claim in respect of chips supplied by the Company for DT calling cards. The claim relates to damages allegedly suffered by DT as a result of such cards being fraudulently reloaded by third parties. DT originally alleged damages of approximately € 90 as a result of these activities, reflecting damages suffered and the cost of remedial measures, and sought compensation from both Siemens and the Company. In November 2001, however, DT brought an action in court against Siemens alone.  Siemens gave a third party notice to the Company and the Company has joined the court proceedings on the side of Siemens. DT currently claims damages of approximately € 150. After an initial hearing, a court decision is expected to be rendered by end of May 2003. Should Siemens be found liable, the Company could be responsible for payments to Siemens in connection with certain indemnifications provided to Siemens at the Company’s formation. The Company has investigated the DT claim and believes that it is without merit. The Company does not anticipate that the ultimate resolution of the DT claim will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows will result in connection with the DT claim.

 

In June 2002, Infineon Technologies AG’s U.S. subsidiary, Infineon Technologies North America Corp., as well as other manufacturers of memory products, received a subpoena from a grand jury sitting in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in connection with an investigation of possible violations of U.S. federal antitrust laws involving pricing in the dynamic random access memory (DRAM) industry. The Company has been requested to provide information to the grand jury to assist with its investigation and intends to cooperate with any requests by officials involved in the investigation. In connection with this investigation Infineon Technologies AG and Infineon Technologies North America Corp. have been sued in several separate class actions by direct and indirect purchasers of DRAM. All actions allege that Infineon and other competitors conspired to fix the price of DRAM. The Company is in the process of investigating these allegations. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of these suits.

 

The Company is subject to various other lawsuits, claims and proceedings related to products, patents and other matters incidental to its businesses. Liabilities, including accruals for significant litigation costs, related to such matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated. Based upon information presently known to management, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of such other pending matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, although the final resolution of such matters could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in the year of settlement.

 

In connection with the Formation, Siemens retained certain facilities located in the U.S. and certain related environmental liabilities. Businesses contributed to the Company by Siemens have conducted operations at certain of these facilities and, under applicable law, could be required to contribute to the environmental remediation of these facilities despite their retention by Siemens. Siemens has provided guarantees to certain third parties and governmental agencies, and all involved parties have recognized Siemens as the responsible party for all applicable sites. No assessments have been made of the extent of environmental remediation, if any, that could be required, and no claims have been made against the Company in this regard. The Company believes its potential exposure, if any, to liability for remediating the U.S. facilities retained by Siemens is therefore low.

 

The Company has capacity reservation agreements with certain Associated Companies and external foundry suppliers to purchase a portion of their production output based on market prices. Purchases under these agreements are recorded as incurred in the normal course of business. The Company assesses its anticipated purchase requirements on a regular basis to meet customer demand for its products. An assessment of losses under these agreements is made on a regular basis in the event that budgeted purchase quantities fall below the specified quantities.

 

21



 

The Company has received government grants and subsidies related to the construction and financing of certain of its production facilities. These amounts are recognized based on the attainment of specified milestone criteria and where the fulfillment of the total project requirements is reasonably assured through planned and committed spending levels, employment and other factors. The Company is committed to meeting these requirements. Nevertheless, should the total project requirements not be met, up to € 623 of these subsidies could be refundable as of March 31, 2003.

 

Infineon Technologies AG, as parent company, has in certain circumstances as is customary, guaranteed the settlement of certain of its consolidated subsidiaries’ obligations to third parties.  Such obligations are reflected as liabilities in the consolidated financial statements by virtue of consolidation. As of March 31, 2003, such inter-company guarantees principally relate to certain consolidated subsidiaries’ third party debt and aggregated € 1,930.

 

At March 31, 2003, the Company has recorded a provision, net of anticipated insurance recoveries, relating to a product warranty matter, which has been recorded in cost of good sold in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Management believes that based upon currently available information, such estimate will adequately provide for the exposure related to this matter.

 

18. Subsequent Events

 

In April 2003, the Company completed the acquisition of the net assets of MorphICs Technology Inc., a developer of digital baseband circuits of third generation wireless communications for € 6 in cash. The acquisition agreement also provides for contingent consideration of € 9 upon the achievements of specified events.

 

In April 2003, Infineon Technologies AG received a Request for Information from the European Commission (“Commission”) to enable the Commission to assess the compatibility with the Commission rules on competition of certain practices of which the Commission has become aware in the European market of DRAM memory products. The Company is in the process of responding.

 

On April 29, 2003, the Company announced additional restructuring measures that are aimed at further reducing costs, including downsizing its workforce, outsourcing and decentralizing certain functions and operations. As part of the restructuring, the Company plans to terminate up to 900 employees comprised mainly from corporate functions and the Secure Mobile Solutions segment, as well as through the outsourcing of certain functions to external providers. In addition, the Automotive and Industrial segment will be relocated to Austria in order to benefit from the proximity between research and production facilities through increased efficiency and to be in a position to launch new products to the market more quickly. The Company has not yet estimated the cost of this restructuring program.

 

On April 30, 2003, the Company announced the launch of a subordinated convertible bond issue of € 700, which is to be placed with institutional investors outside the U.S. through its Netherlands subsidiary Infineon Technologies Holding B.V.. The bond is convertible into up to 68 million common shares of Infineon Technologies AG, the equivalent cash amount at the Company’s discretion or an equivalent cash/share combination. The convertible bond has a maturity of 7 years, cannot be called for the first three years, and is callable thereafter subject to a 125 percent provisional call.

 

The Company and Ericsson Holding International B.V. (“Ericsson”) are in discussions relating to potential amendments to the June 2002 agreement for the acquisition by of the Company of Ericsson’s microelectronics business. Based on the results of theses discussions, the Company believes that an amendment of the agreement is reasonably possible, which could result in the reduction or elimination of remaining acquisition indebtedness due to Ericsson, as well as modifications to existing purchase commitments of Ericsson. There can be no assurance that such negotiations will be successfully concluded.

 

19. Operating Segment and Geographic Information

 

The Company decided to merge the activities of the Wireless Solutions and Security & Chipcard ICs segments into one operating segment called Secure Mobile Solutions and to report it as such with effect from October 1, 2002.

Revenues from external customers are based on the customers’ billing location. Accordingly, there are no sales transactions between operating segments.

 

Except for sales to Siemens, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of Infineon’s sales during the three and six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003. Sales to Siemens are made primarily by the Secure Mobile Solutions and Automotive & Industrial segments.

Supplementary Information

 

EBIT

 

Infineon defines EBIT as earnings (loss) from continuing operations before interest, minority interest and taxes.

Infineon management uses EBIT as a measure to establish budgets and operational goals, to manage the company’s business and to evaluate its performance. Infineon reports EBIT information because it believes that it provides investors with meaningful information about the operating performance of the company and especially about the performance of its separate business segments.

 

EBIT is determined as follows from the statement of operations, without adjustment to the US GAAP amounts presented:

Gross Cash Position

 

Infineon defines gross cash position as cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash.

Since Infineon holds a substantial portion of its available monetary resources in the form of readily marketable securities, which for US GAAP purposes are not considered to be “cash”, it reports its gross cash position to provide investors with an understanding of the company’s overall liquidity.

The gross cash position is determined as follows from the balance sheet, without adjustment to the US GAAP amounts presented:

 

in Euro million

Free Cash Flow

 

Free Cash Flow

 

Infineon defines free cash flow as cash from operating and investing activities, as well as cashflow from discontinued operation, excluding purchases or sales of marketable securities. Since Infineon holds a substantial portion of its available monetary resources in the form of readily marketable securities, and operates in a capital intensive industry, it reports free cash flow to provide investors with a measure to evaluate changes in liquidity after taking capital expenditures into account, which ultimately requires financing.

The free cash flow is determined as follows from the cash flow statement, without adjustment to the US GAAP amounts presented:

 

 

 

6 months ended

 

in Euro million
