First Quarter Reportable Segment Results and Comparisons to the Prior Quarter
Silicon Systems Group (SSG) orders were $1.36 billion, up 84 percent primarily due to increased demand in foundry and memory, partially offset by lower orders in logic. Net sales were $969 million, up 11 percent. Non-GAAP operating income increased to $180 million or 18.6 percent of net sales. GAAP operating income increased to $134 million or 13.8 percent of net sales. New order composition was: foundry 73 percent, logic and other 12 percent, flash 8 percent, and DRAM 7 percent.
Applied Global Services (AGS) orders were $544 million, down 6 percent primarily due to lower orders of 200mm equipment. Net sales were $471 million, down 24 percent from the prior quarter which benefited from the sale of a thin film production line. Non-GAAP operating income decreased to $91 million or 19.3 percent of net sales. GAAP operating income decreased to $89 million or 18.9 percent of net sales.
Display orders were $138 million, up 66 percent from low levels. Net sales were $87 million, down 6 percent. Non-GAAP operating income increased to $5 million or 5.7 percent of net sales. GAAP operating income remained at $3 million or 3.4 percent of net sales.

Additional Quarterly Financial Information

Backlog increased by 31 percent sequentially to $2.11 billion including negative adjustments of $40 million.
Gross margin was 39.8 percent on a non-GAAP basis, up from 38.4 percent in the prior quarter due to a more favorable product mix. GAAP gross margin was 37.0 percent.
Operating expenses were $514 million on a non-GAAP basis, below the company’s expectation due to approximately $20 million in favorable expense items. GAAP operating expenses were $543 million.
The effective tax rate was 24.2 percent on a non-GAAP basis. The GAAP effective tax rate was a benefit of 88.9 percent, reflecting the favorable resolution of a tax audit and the reinstatement of the U.S. R&D tax credit.

Business Outlook
For the second quarter of fiscal 2013, Applied expects net sales to be up 15 to 25 percent sequentially. The company expects non-GAAP EPS to be in the range of $0.09 to $0.15. The non-GAAP EPS outlook excludes known charges related to completed acquisitions of approximately $0.04 per share but does not exclude other non-GAAP adjustments that may arise subsequent to this release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses non-GAAP results to evaluate the company’s operating and financial performance in light of business objectives and for planning purposes. These measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Applied believes these measures enhance investors’ ability to review the company’s business from the same perspective as the company’s management and facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Webcast Information
Applied Materials will discuss these results during an earnings call that begins at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time today. A live webcast will be available at www.appliedmaterials.com. A replay will be available on the website beginning at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time today.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding Applied’s performance, industry conditions, market outlook, opportunities and business outlooks for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, and include the assumptions that underlie such statements. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements, including but not limited to: the level of demand for Applied’s products, which is subject to many factors, including uncertain global economic and industry conditions, end-demand for electronic products and semiconductors, and customers’ new technology and capacity requirements; variability of operating expenses and results among the company’s segments caused by differing conditions in the served markets; the concentrated nature of Applied’s customer base; Applied’s ability to (i) develop, deliver and support a broad range of products, expand its markets and develop new markets, (ii) timely align its cost structure with business conditions and achieve the intended objectives of cost-reduction activities, (iii) plan and manage its resources and production capability, (iv) obtain and protect intellectual property rights in key technologies, (v) attract, motivate and retain key employees, and (vi) accurately forecast future results, which depends on multiple assumptions related to, without limitation, market conditions, customer requirements and business needs; and other risks described in Applied's SEC filings, including its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 28, 2012.
