       On January 16, 2002, AMD reported that net sales for the quarter ended
  December 30, 2001 grew by 24 percent sequentially.
  
       Led by record unit and record dollar sales of PC processors, AMD reported
  fourth quarter net sales of $951,873,000, which resulted in a net loss of
  $15,842,000, or $0.05 per share.
  
       Net sales for the third quarter of 2001 were $765,870,000, which resulted
  in a pro forma net loss of $97,424,000, or a pro forma net loss of $0.28 per
  share (excluding the effects of restructuring and other special charges
  amounting to $89.3 million, impaired investments of $22 million, and additional
  inventory provisions amounting to $6.9 million.)
  
       In the fourth quarter of 2000, AMD reported net sales of $1,175,172,000 and
  net income of $177,968,000, or $0.53 per diluted share.
  
       For the full year ended December 30, 2001, AMD reported net sales of
  $3,891,754,000, a decline of 16 percent as compared to 2000, resulting in net
  income of $28,924,000, or $0.09 per diluted share on a pro forma basis. When the
  effects of restructuring and other special charges, impaired investments and
  additional inventory provisions are included, the company incurred a net loss in
  2001 of $60,581,000, or $0.18 per share.
  
  In 2000 AMD reported net sales of $4,644,187,000 and net income of $983,026,000,
  or $2.89 per diluted share. Results for 2000 included a one-time net gain of
  $189,202,000 from the sale of the company's voice communications business and a
  one-time charge associated with the retirement of senior secured notes. Pro
  forma net income for 2000 excluding the one-time net gain above was
  $793,824,000, or $2.35 per diluted share.
  
       The company reported that fourth quarter unit sales of AMD processors for
  mobile PC applications increased by more than 50 percent sequentially.
  
       The company also reported that it commenced production of AMD Athlon
  processors on 130-nanometer (0.13-micron) technology in Fab 30 in Dresden,
  Germany during the quarter.
  
       AMD reported that Memory Group sales - principally flash memory products -
  declined by approximately 7 percent sequentially in the face of continued weak
  demand from the networking and communications sector.
