Revenue, Gross Profit and Margin Review
Net revenues for the second quarter were $2,162 million, up 3.8% sequentially from the $2,083 million reported in the prior quarter, and 0.4% below the $2,172 million reported in last year’s second quarter. Sequential sales growth was primarily driven by wireless and automotive applications. Several applications experienced double digit year-over-year sales growth, including wireless and automotive, with data storage experiencing strong double-digit growth compared to the second quarter of 2004. These year-over-year increases were offset by sales declines in consumer applications and the distribution market.
Gross profit increased 4.4% to $714 million from $685 million in the first quarter of 2005 despite continuing price pressure in memory and standard products. Volume and manufacturing performance drove the improvement in gross profit. Gross margin was 33.0% in the second quarter compared to 32.9% in the prior quarter.
Operating Expenses
Research and development expenses in the second quarter were $423 million compared to $404 million in the prior quarter, with the sequential increase reflecting accelerated technology and product development activity. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $255 million for the 2005 second quarter, down from $265 million in the prior quarter. Combined SG&A and R&D expenses in the second quarter were 31.4% of sales and 32.1% in the 2005 first quarter.

For the 2005 second quarter the Company reported operating income of $12 million, and net income of $26 million, or $0.03 per share. In the prior quarter the Company reported an operating loss of $68 million, and a net loss of $31 million or $0.03 per share.
As a result of the restructuring initiatives underway, the Company incurred $22 million of impairment, restructuring charges, and other related closure costs during the 2005 second quarter. This figure included $16 million from the most recent initiative announced in May. In the prior quarter the Company recorded restructuring related expenses of $78 million.
During the second quarter, income tax expenses included a net $8 million tax benefit.
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Highlights
Net cash from operating activities in the second quarter was $409 million compared to $359 million in the prior quarter. Capital expenditures were $363 million in the 2005 second quarter, a reduction of approximately $200 million from $564 million in the prior quarter.

In the second quarter the Company paid a cash dividend of $0.12 per share for a total of $107 million.
In the second quarter, the effective average exchange rate for the Company was approximately $1.30 to €1, similar to first quarter levels.
(*) Net operating cash flow is defined as net cash from operating activities ($409 million in the second quarter of 2005) minus net cash used in investing activities ($386 million in the second quarter of 2005) excluding payments for purchase of and proceeds from the sale of marketable securities ($0 in the second quarter of 2005)
President and CEO Remarks
Carlo Bozotti, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “ST’s second quarter sales growth confirmed improvement in certain key markets led by wireless which increased 12% sequentially. Additionally, we saw increased design wins across several markets including automotive and computer peripherals, as well as digital consumer, where we are targeting to increase our product penetration.
“Gross margin progression was limited by pricing pressure. Nonetheless, we are encouraged by the underlying improvement during the second quarter. With our initiatives currently well underway, we expect to see sequential improvement in the gross margin continuing and accelerating through the second half of 2005.
“In summary, we made good progress in executing on our strategic initiatives during the second quarter. On the product front we completed the redeployment of approximately 1,000 R&D engineers to higher priority product programs. Additionally, we are on track to realize the significant expected benefits from all of our cost reduction plans, including our most recently announced initiative. Moreover, we have concrete signs of the expansion of our key customer base, thanks to new design wins at several accounts.”

Su...cosa,Felixeco? Spero non al long: con una contrazione dell'utile netto dell'82% e un gross margin inferiore alle attese (senza considerare che le stime di incremento dei margini potrebbero oscillare solo fino ad un +2% fino alla fine dell'anno...) credo che sia avventuroso tentare di andare ancora al rialzo! Manuuuuuuuuuu!?!? Sempre long? Ciao Da,Pio,Piruzut,Vasco,Gancio,Rubicco,Morice...e tutti gli altri amici di IO...
