Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Reports Second Quarter of Fiscal 2011 Results

Revenue: $896 Million, Up 5 Percent Sequentially

Santa Clara, California (August 19, 2010) – Marvell (Nasdaq: MRVL - News), a global leader in integrated silicon solutions today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2011, ended July 31, 2010.

Net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $896 million, a 40 percent increase from $641 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010, ended August 1, 2009, and a 5 percent sequential increase from $856 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, ended May 1, 2010.

GAAP net income was $220 million, or $0.33 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of fiscal 2011, compared with a GAAP net income of $58 million, or $0.09 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of fiscal 2010. GAAP net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $206 million, or $0.30 per share (diluted).

Non-GAAP net income was $273 million, or $0.40 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of fiscal 2011, as compared with non-GAAP net income of $119 million, or $0.18 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of fiscal 2010. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $260 million, or $0.38 per share (diluted).

"We delivered excellent results for the second quarter," said Dr. Sehat Sutardja, Marvell's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We experienced significant revenue growth in our mobile and wireless end market which increased over 50 percent sequentially, and over 140 percent year over year, while revenue from our networking end market grew 4 percent sequentially, and over 30 percent year over year. Despite the challenges of a softening macroeconomic environment for PCs, we continue to deliver best in class profitability on both operating and cash flow margins, demonstrating the robustness of our long-term business model driven by the transformation of our revenues to the mobile and wireless semiconductor end market. Given the long-term confidence we have in our business model, we are pleased to announce the Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of $500 million."

Marvell reports net income (loss), basic and diluted net income (loss) per share in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and on a non-GAAP basis as outlined below. Reconciliations of GAAP net income (loss) to non-GAAP net income for the three months ended July 31, 2010, May 1, 2010 and August 1, 2009 appear in the financial statements below. Non-GAAP net income, where applicable, excludes the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization and write-offs of acquired intangible assets, restructuring costs and certain other expenses or benefits.

GAAP gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was 59.1 percent, compared to 55.0 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 59.8 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Non-GAAP gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was 59.3 percent, compared to 55.3 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 60.6 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Shares used to compute GAAP net income per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 were 675 million shares, compared with 648 million shares in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 678 million shares in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Shares used to compute non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 were 678 million shares, compared with 652 million shares for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 681 million shares for the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Cash flow from operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $319 million, up from the $182 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and up from the $256 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Free cash flow for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $292 million, up from the $175 million reported in second quarter of fiscal 2010, and up from the $237 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Free cash flow as presented above is defined as cash flow from operations, less capital expenditures and purchases of technology licenses.

Share Repurchase Program

Marvell also announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a program to repurchase up to $500 million of its outstanding common shares, depending on market conditions and other factors.

Marvell intends to effect the repurchase program in accordance with the conditions of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The repurchase program will be subject to market conditions and other factors and does not obligate Marvell to repurchase any dollar amount or number of its common shares. The program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time. The repurchases, which are expected to be funded from Marvell's current cash and short-term position of over $2.3 billion, may occur in open market, privately negotiated or block transactions. As of July 31, 2010, Marvell had approximately 650 million common shares outstanding.

Conference Call

Marvell will be conducting a conference call on August 19, 2010 at 1:45 p.m. Pacific Time to discuss results for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Interested parties may join the conference call by dialing 1-866-314-5050, pass-code 24135453. The call will be webcast by Thomson Reuters and can be accessed at the Marvell Investor Relations website at http://investor.marvell.com/ with a replay available following the call until September 19, 2010.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation expense as well as charges related to acquisitions, restructuring, gains and other charges that are driven primarily by discrete events that management does not consider to be directly related to Marvell's core operating performance. Non-GAAP earnings per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). For purposes of calculating non-GAAP earnings per share, the GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted) is adjusted to exclude the potential benefits of compensation costs expected to be incurred in future periods, but not yet recognized in the financial statements. The expected compensation costs are treated as proceeds assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method and also include the dilutive/antidilutive effects of common stock options and restricted stock.

Marvell believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Marvell's financial condition and results of operations. While Marvell uses non-GAAP financial measures as a tool to enhance its understanding of certain aspects of its financial performance, Marvell does not consider these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial measures. Consistent with this approach, Marvell believes that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures to the readers of its financial statements provides such readers with useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for GAAP financial measures, allows for greater transparency in the review of its financial and operational performance. For further information regarding why Marvell believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors, the specific manner in which management uses these measures, and some of the limitations associated with the use of these measures, please refer to Marvell's Current Report on Form 8-K filed today with the SEC. The Form 8-K is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov as well as on the Marvell website in the Investor Relations section at www.marvell.com.
