SHANGHAI, China, April 27 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/
-- Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation
(NYSE: SMI; SEHK: 981) ("SMIC" or the
"Company"), one of the leading semiconductor
foundries in the world, today announced its consolidated
results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
2007. Sales increased 1.2% in the first quarter of 2007 to
$388.3 million from $383.8 million in the fourth quarter of
2006. The Company reported a decrease in capacity to
177,150 8-inch equivalent wafers per month and a
utilization rate of 86.2% in the first quarter of 2007.
Gross margins were 9.5% in the first quarter of 2007
compared to 5.1% in the fourth quarter of 2006. Net income
of $8.8 million in the first quarter of 2007, compared to a
net loss of $9.6 million in the first quarter of 2006 and a
net income of $0.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2006.
"SMIC posted quarterly revenues of $388.3 million
dollars during the first quarter of 2007," said Dr.
Richard Chang, Chief Executive Officer of SMIC.
"Gross profit increased to $36.9 million in 1Q07 up
89.2% QoQ from $19.5 million in 4Q06. Management fees from
the Wuhan and Chengdu managed projects contributed to the
revenue while demonstrating our ability to continue to grow
our business".
Despite operating in a difficult business environment,
SMIC was able to grow its revenues through several channels
this quarter. We have seen several orders come back from
major customers. During the quarter, we have seen
significant growth in orders from the Chinese local design
companies, which accounts for 12.8% of the revenue in 1Q07
as compared to 8.8% in 4Q06. We expect continued growth in
the business from the Chinese local design companies for the
rest of this year.
We will continue to focus on sustainable profitability
and strategically identify opportunities to enhance
shareholder value in the company. We are currently on track
with our technology roadmap with 65nm technology development
making good progress.
In the second quarter of 2007, we believe the steady
development of advanced technology nodes for leading
customers along with additional logic orders and revenue
from our peripheral businesses positions SMIC for continual
growth in 2007."

Material Litigation
Overview of TSMC Litigation:
Beginning in December 2003 through August 2004, the
Company became subject to several lawsuits brought by
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Limited
("TSMC") relating to alleged infringement of
certain patents and misappropriation of alleged trade
secrets relating to methods for conducting semiconductor
fab operations and manufacturing integrated circuits.
On January 31, 2005, the Company entered into a
settlement agreement, without admission of liability, which
provided for the dismissal of all pending legal actions
without prejudice between the two companies (the
"Settlement Agreement"). The terms of the
Settlement Agreement also included:
-- The Company and TSMC agreed to cross-license each
other's patent
portfolio for all semiconductor device products,
effective from
January 2005 through December 2010.
-- TSMC covenanted not to sue the Company for trade
secret
misappropriation as alleged in TSMC's legal actions
as it related to
.15um and larger processes subject to certain
conditions ("TSMC
Covenant"). The TSMC Covenant did not cover
.13um and smaller
technologies after 6 months following execution of
the Settlement
Agreement (July, 31, 2005). Excluding the .13um and
smaller
technologies, the TSMC Covenant remains in effect
indefinitely,
terminable upon a breach by the Company.
-- The Company is required to deposit certain Company
materials relating
to .13um and smaller technologies into an escrow
account until December
31, 2006 or under certain circumstances for a longer
period of time.
-- The Company agreed to pay TSMC an aggregate of $175
million in
installments of $30 million for each of the first
five years and $25
million in the sixth year.
Accounting under the Settlement Agreement:
Current Accounting
In accounting for the Settlement Agreement, the Company
determined that there were several components of the
Settlement Agreement -- settlement of litigation, TSMC
Covenant, patents licensed by us to TSMC and the use of
TSMC's patent license portfolio both prior and subsequent
to the settlement date.
The Company does not believe that the settlement of
litigation, TSMC Covenant or patents licensed by us to TSMC
qualify as accounting elements. In regard to the settlement
of litigation, the Company cites the following:
-- The Settlement Agreement expressly stated that there
was no admission
of liability by either party;
-- The Settlement Agreement required all parties to
bear their own legal
costs;
-- There were no damages recited in, or associated
with, the Settlement
Agreement;
-- There was a provision in the Settlement Agreement
for a grace period to
resolve any misappropriation issues had they
existed;
-- Albeit a complaint had been filed by TSMC on trade
secret infringement,
TSMC has never identified which trade secrets it
claimed were being
infringed upon by the Company;
-- The Settlement Agreement was concluded when the
litigation process was
still at a relatively early stage and the outcome of
the litigation
was therefore highly uncertain.
The TSMC Covenant does not qualify as a separable asset
in accordance with either SFAS 141 of SFAS 142 as TSMC had
never specified or identified which trade secrets it
claimed were misappropriated, the Company's belief that
TSMC's alleged trade secrets may be obtained within the
marketplace by other legal means and the Company never
obtained the legal right to use TSMC's trade secrets.
In addition, the Company did not attribute any value to
the patents licensed to TSMC under the Settlement Agreement
due to the limited number of patents held by the Company at
the time of the Settlement Agreement.
As a result, the Company determined that only the use
of TSMC's patent license portfolio prior and subsequent to
the settlement date were considered elements of an
arrangement for accounting purposes. In attributing value
to these two elements, the Company first discounted the
payment terms of the $175 million settlement amount using
an annual 3.4464% interest rate to arrive at a net present
value of $158 million. This amount was then allocated to
the pre- and post-settlement periods based on relative fair
value, as further described below.
Based on this approach, $16.7 million was allocated to
the pre-settlement period, reflecting the amount that the
Company would have paid for use of the patent license
portfolio prior to the date of the Settlement Agreement.
The remaining $141.3 million, representing the relative
fair value of the licensed patent license portfolio, was
recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as a
deferred cost and is being amortized over a six-year
period, which represents the life of the licensed patent
license portfolio. The amortization of the deferred cost
is included as a component of cost of sales in the
consolidated statements of operations.
Valuation of Deferred Cost:
The fair value of the patent license portfolio was
calculated by applying the estimated royalty rate to the
specific revenue generated and expected to be generated
from the specific products associated with the patent
license portfolio.
-- The selected royalty rate was based on the review of
median and mean
royalty rates for the following categories of
licensing arrangements:
-- Existing third-party license agreements with
SMIC;
-- The analysis of comparable industry royalty
rates related to
semiconductor chip/integrated circuit
("IC") related technology;
and
-- The analysis of comparable industry royalty
rates related to
semiconductor fabrication.
On an annualized basis, the amounts allocated to past
periods was lower than that allocated to future periods as
the Company assumed increases in revenues relating to the
specific products associated with the patent license
portfolio.
As the total estimated fair value of the patent license
portfolio exceeded the present value of the settlement
amount, the Company allocated the present value of the
settlement amount based on the relative fair value of the
amounts calculated prior and subsequent to the settlement
date.
Recent TSMC Legal Developments:
On August 25, 2006, TSMC filed a lawsuit against the
Company and certain subsidiaries (SMIC (Shanghai), SMIC
(Beijing) and SMIC (Americas) in the Superior Court of the
State of California, County of Alameda for alleged breach
of the Settlement Agreement, alleged breach of promissory
notes and alleged trade secret misappropriation by the
Company. TSMC seeks, among other things, damages,
injunctive relief, attorneys' fees, and the acceleration of
the remaining payments outstanding under the Settlement
Agreement.
In the present litigation, TSMC alleges that the
Company has incorporated TSMC trade secrets in the
manufacture of the Company's 0.13 micron or smaller process
products. TSMC further alleges that as a result of this
claimed breach, TSMC's patent license is terminated and the
covenant not to sue is no longer in effect with respect to
the Company's larger process products.
The Company has vigorously denied all allegations of
misappropriation. Moreover, TSMC has not yet proven, nor
produced evidence of, any trade secret misappropriation by
the Company. At present, the claims rest as unproven
allegations, denied by the Company. The Court has made no
finding that TSMC's claims are valid, nor has it set a
trial date.
On September 13, 2006, the Company announced that in
addition to filing a response strongly denying the
allegations of TSMC in the United States lawsuit, it filed
on September 12, 2006, a cross-complaint against TSMC
seeking, among other things, damages for TSMC's breach of
contract and breach of implied covenant of good faith and
fair dealing.
On November 16, 2006, the High Court in Beijing, the
People's Republic of China, accepted the filing of a
complaint by the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
SMIC (Shanghai) and SMIC (Beijing), regarding the unfair
competition arising from the breach of bona fide (i.e.
integrity, good faith) principle and commercial defamation
by TSMC ("PRC Complaint"). In the PRC Complaint,
the Company is seeking, among other things, an injunction to
stop TSMC's infringing acts, public apology from TSMC to the
Company and compensation from TSMC to the Company, including
profits gained by TSMC from their infringing acts.
In March 2007, the California Court denied TSMC's
motion to enjoin the PRC action. TSMC has appealed this
ruling to the California Court of Appeal.
Under the provisions of SFAS 144, the Company is
required to make a determination as to whether or not this
pending litigation represents an event that requires a
further analysis of whether the patent license portfolio
has been impaired. We believe that the lawsuit is at a
very early stage and we are still evaluating whether or not
the litigation represents such an event. The Company expects
further information to become available to us, which will
aid us in making a determination. The outcome of any
impairment analysis performed under SFAS 144 might result
in a material impact to our financial position and results
of operations.
Change of Accounting Estimate
With effect from the first quarter of 2007, the Company
has changed the estimated useful life of fab-related
machinery and equipment in the computation of annual
depreciation. This change has an effect on the Company's
gross profit and gross margin. Previously, we used a
five-year straight-line depreciation method. We consider
the previous useful life estimate overly conservative in
light of the expected economic life of the equipment. We
have changed the useful life estimate to a five to seven
year range, which is consistent with industry practice and
more accurately reflect the economics associated with the
ownership of the equipment.
