LSI Logic Corporation (NYSE: LSI) today reported second quarter 2006 revenues of $490 million, a 3% increase sequentially compared to the $476 million reported in the first quarter of 2006, and up 2% year-over-year compared to the $481 million reported in the second quarter of 2005.
Second quarter 2006 GAAP* net income was $54 million or 13 cents per diluted share, compared to first quarter 2006 GAAP net income of $13 million or 3 cents per diluted share. Second quarter 2006 GAAP results compare to second quarter 2005 GAAP net income of $25 million or 6 cents per diluted share. Second quarter GAAP net income included $13 million of stock-based compensation expense and a net gain of $10 million from special items, acquisition-related amortization, restructuring and their related tax effect. Second quarter 2006 non-GAAP** net income was $57 million or 14 cents per diluted share, an increase of 43% compared to first quarter 2006 non-GAAP net income of $40 million or 10 cents per diluted share. Second quarter non-GAAP 2005 net income was $45 million or 11 cents per diluted share.
Cash and short-term investments grew 16% sequentially to $1.2 billion, from $1.03 billion in the first quarter of 2006 and up 54% from the year-ago period.
"All segments of our business grew sequentially during the quarter. Demand for our Engenio 4 Gb/s Fibre Channel systems strengthened, driving our storage systems revenues to near record levels and 17% higher than the year-ago quarter," said Abhi Talwalkar, LSI Logic president and chief executive officer. "Our communications revenues grew significantly year-over-year, as demand for existing long-lifecycle products increased and several in-process designs ramped to production. We anticipate accelerating demand for our storage products in the second half of 2006 as broad market transitions to 4 Gb/s Fibre Channel interfaces and SAS-enabled servers are now well underway."
"In the second quarter, GAAP net income grew significantly, driven in part by successful completion of the sale of our Gresham, Oregon manufacturing facility and our ZSP digital signal processor unit," said Bryon Look, LSI Logic chief financial officer. "Our balance sheet also strengthened, with a $169 million increase in cash and short-term investments during the period."
