MICROCHIP TECHNOLOGY ANNOUNCES RECORD FINANCIAL RESULTS
FOR FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2017

Record GAAP net sales of $799.4 million which was negatively impacted by $44.6 million due to GAAP rules for revenue recognition of distributor inventory from our acquisitions of Atmel and Micrel. Microchip was unable to provide GAAP net sales guidance due to the acquisition of Atmel.
Record Non-GAAP net sales of $844.0 million, above the high end of our non-GAAP net sales guidance provided on May 4, 2016 of $799.1 million to $841.9 million.
Impacted by $228.0 million of Atmel purchase accounting, restructuring and other charges, our GAAP operating loss was $59.1 million. Our GAAP results were: gross margins of 43.6%; operating loss of $59.1 million; net loss from continuing operations of $109.2 million; and loss per share from continuing operations of 51 cents per diluted share. There was no First Call published estimate and no guidance provided by Microchip for GAAP EPS.
On a non-GAAP basis: gross margins of 55.8%; record operating income of $231.1 million; record net income from continuing operations of $194.0 million and record EPS from continuing operations of 84 cents per diluted share. Our original guidance provided on May 4, 2016 was EPS of 70 to 79 cents.
Record sales of microcontrollers, analog and memory products on a consolidated basis, including Atmel.
Record quarterly dividend declared of 36.0 cents per share.
CHANDLER, Arizona - August 8, 2016 - (NASDAQ: MCHP) - Microchip Technology Incorporated, a leading provider of microcontroller, mixed signal, analog and Flash-IP solutions, today reported results for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as summarized in the following table:

First Quarter Fiscal 2017
Financial Results
Page 2



GAAP net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 were $799.4 million, up 49.7% from GAAP net sales of $534.0 million in the prior year's first fiscal quarter. GAAP net loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was $(109.2) million, or (51) cents per diluted share, down from GAAP net income of $130.7 million, or 60 cents per diluted share, in the prior year's first fiscal quarter.

Non-GAAP net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 were $844.0 million, up 58.1% from non-GAAP net sales of $534.0 million in the prior year's first fiscal quarter. Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was $194.0 million, or 84 cents per diluted share, up 30.2% from non-GAAP net income of $148.9 million, or 69 cents per diluted share, in the prior year's first fiscal quarter. For the first quarters of fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, our non-GAAP results exclude the effect of discontinued operations, share-based compensation, expenses related to our acquisition activities (including intangible asset amortization, inventory valuation costs, severance costs, and legal and other general and administrative expenses associated with acquisitions), preclusion of revenue recognition under GAAP for inventory in the distribution channel on the acquisition dates of our acquisitions, revenue recognition changes related to Atmel and Micrel distributors, non-cash interest expense on our convertible debentures, gains on equity securities, the related income tax implications of these items and non-recurring tax events. A reconciliation of our non-GAAP and GAAP results is included in this press release.

Microchip announced today that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of 36.0 cents per share. The quarterly dividend is payable on September 6, 2016 to stockholders of record on August 22, 2016.

"Our June quarter financial results were outstanding. Non-GAAP net sales, gross margin percentage, operating profit percentage, and earnings per share were all above the high end of our guidance from May 4, 2016," said Steve Sanghi, Chairman and CEO. "Our non-GAAP earnings per share were 9.5 cents per share better than the mid-point of our guidance, and up 19.6% sequentially from the March quarter, due to improving sales, gross margin, operating expense leverage, and accretion from both Micrel and Atmel. We achieved excellent results both from our core business at Microchip as well as from the Atmel business."

Mr. Sanghi added, "We achieved all-time record net sales and non-GAAP earnings per share in the June 2016 quarter. We are tracking well ahead of our guidance for non-GAAP earnings per share for fiscal 2017 which we commented on in our May 4, 2016 earnings conference call."

"We achieved strong revenue growth in the microcontroller businesses of both core Microchip and Atmel in the June quarter," said Ganesh Moorthy, President and Chief Operating Officer. "All microcontroller business units for Microchip, as well as for Atmel, outperformed our expectations in the June quarter. Atmel's customers felt

reassured about Microchip's plans to continue to support Atmel's microcontroller products going forward and launched their new products with confidence."

Mr. Moorthy added, "Our analog business revenue excluding Atmel, as well as including Atmel were both up nicely in the June quarter as compared to the March quarter. Microchip's vast portfolio of analog products is one of our greatest growth opportunities, as our sales teams and channel partners attach them to Atmel microcontrollers at customers and applications that we otherwise did not have visibility into."

Eric Bjornholt, Microchip's Chief Financial Officer, said, "Our inventory days were well managed during the quarter, and excluding purchase accounting adjustments were 107 days, well within our target model. Additionally, the strength in our business in the June 2016 quarter has our net leverage tracking ahead of schedule to the targets we had previously outlined to our stockholders."

Mr. Sanghi added, "We expect total net sales in the September 2016 quarter including Atmel to be flat to up 4% sequentially. We expect gross margin to be between 55.6% and 56.2%. We expect overall operating expenses from continuing operations to be between 27.2% and 27.9% of net sales, marking another significant reduction in Atmel's operating expenses. We expect operating income from continuing operations to be between 27.7% and 29% of net sales."

Mr. Sanghi concluded, "Based on the rapid integration progress we made in the June quarter, we are increasing the accretion target from Atmel from 25 cents to 40 cents for fiscal 2017."

Microchip's Highlights for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2016:

Expanding on Microchip's industry leading position with LoRa® technology, Microchip released the industry’s first LoRa technology evaluation kits. Driven by the LoRa Alliance, LoRa technology is able to achieve a range of up to 10 miles and 10 years of battery life. This kit provides customers with all the required components to create a Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) in Europe or North America.

Microchip launched its lowest-power, most cost-effective PIC32 family with Core Independent Peripherals. The PIC32MM family bridges the gap between the company’s popular PIC24F XLP and PIC32MX families and will be ideal for Internet of Things (IoT), consumer, industrial control, and motor control applications.

Microchip introduced a hardware cryptography-enabled 32-bit microcontroller for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The CEC1302 offers customers significant performance improvements over firmware-based security solutions.

Microchip's inventory days, excluding Atmel, at September 30, 2016 are expected to be flat to down 4 days excluding purchase accounting adjustments. Our actual inventory level will depend on the inventory that our distributors decide to hold to support their customers, overall demand for our products and our production levels.

Capital expenditures, including Atmel, for the quarter ending September 30, 2016 are expected to be approximately $30 million. Capital expenditures for all of fiscal year 2017 are expected to be approximately $141 million. We are continuing to invest in the equipment needed to support the growth of our production capabilities for fast growing new products and technologies.

We expect net cash generation during the September quarter of $175 million to $200 million prior to the dividend payment, changes in borrowing levels, and any acquisition-related activities.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Our non-GAAP adjustments, where applicable, include the effect of discontinued operations, share-based compensation, expenses related to our acquisition activities (including intangible asset amortization, inventory valuation costs, severance costs, and legal and other general and administrative expenses associated with acquisitions), preclusion of revenue recognition under GAAP for inventory in the distribution channel on the acquisition dates of our acquisitions, revenue recognition changes related to Atmel and Micrel distributors, non-cash interest expense on our convertible debentures, gains on equity securities, the related income tax implications of these items and non-recurring tax events. Our non-GAAP net sales outlook for the September 2016 quarter reflects accounting for revenue for Atmel distributors on a sell-through basis. Net sales from Atmel's sell-through distributors that the distributors owned as of the acquisition date is not recognized for GAAP purposes. We believe that our disclosure of non-GAAP net sales provides investors with useful information regarding the actual end market demand for our products.

We are required to estimate the cost of certain forms of share-based compensation, including employee stock options, restricted stock units and our employee stock purchase plan, and to record a commensurate expense in our income statement. Share-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is affected by the price of our stock at the date of grant. The price of our stock is affected by market forces that are difficult to predict and are not within the control of management. Our other non-GAAP adjustments are either non-cash expenses or other expenses related to such transactions. Accordingly, management excludes all of these items from its internal operating forecasts and models.

We are using non-GAAP net sales, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit percentage, non-GAAP operating expenses in dollars and as a percentage of sales including non-GAAP research and development expenses and non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP other expense, net, non-GAAP income tax provision (benefit)/tax rate, non-GAAP net income (loss), and non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share which exclude the items noted above, as applicable, to permit additional analysis of our performance.

Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they enhance the understanding of our historical financial performance and comparability between periods. Many of our investors have requested that we disclose this non-GAAP information because they believe it is useful in understanding our performance as it excludes non-cash and other charges that many investors feel may obscure our underlying operating results. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to manage and assess the profitability of our business. Specifically, we do not consider such items when developing and monitoring our budgets and spending. Our determination of the above non-GAAP measures might not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies, and it should not be construed as a substitute for amounts determined in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations associated with using non-GAAP measures, including that they exclude financial information that some may consider important in evaluating our performance. Management compensates for this by presenting information on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis for investors and providing reconciliations of the GAAP and non-GAAP results.

2 
Generally, gross margin fluctuates over time, driven primarily by the mix of microcontrollers, mixed-signal products, analog products and memory products sold and licensing revenue; variances in manufacturing yields; fixed cost absorption; wafer fab loading levels; costs of wafers from foundries; inventory reserves; pricing pressures in our non-proprietary product lines; and competitive and economic conditions. Operating expenses fluctuate over time, primarily due to net sales and profit levels.

3 
Diluted Common Shares Outstanding can vary for, among other things, the trading price of our common stock, the exercise of options or vesting of restricted stock units, the potential for incremental dilutive shares from our convertible debentures (additional information regarding our share count is available in the investor relations

section of our website under the heading "Supplemental Financial Information"), repurchases or issuances of shares of our common stock. The diluted common shares outstanding presented in the guidance table above assumes an average Microchip stock price in the September 2016 quarter of $57.00 per share (however, we make no prediction as to what our actual share price will be for such period or any other period and we cannot estimate what our stock option exercise activity will be during the quarter).
