SHANGHAI, China, Jan. 31 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- 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 December 31, 2006. Sales increased 4.0% in the fourth quarter of 2006 to $383.8 million from $368.9 million in the third quarter. The Company reported an increase in capacity to 182,250 8-inch equivalent wafers per month and a utilization rate of 86.6% in the fourth quarter of 2006. Gross margins were 6.6% in the fourth quarter of 2006 compared to 8.9% in the third quarter of 2006. Net income of $1.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to a net loss of $15.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 and a net loss of $35.1 million in the third quarter of 2006.

"SMIC posted record revenues of $1.46 billion dollars in 2006, which represented a 25% increase year over year," said Dr. Richard Chang, Chief Executive Officer of SMIC. "Gross profit grew by 68% year over year to $150.7 million dollars. We were able to reduce our net loss by 64% year over year and managed to increase EBITDA by 25% year over year to $911.1 million dollars.

Our fourth quarter revenue from advanced technology nodes demonstrates SMIC's ability to meet the needs of a growing customer base. The positive product mix shift resulted in 90 nanometer and 130 nanometer technologies contributing 57.4% of total wafer revenues, up from their 46.1% contribution in the third quarter.

There was particular strength in the PC related ICs, DTV, MP3/4, and Bluetooth applications. Also, we had eight new Mainland China customer wins during the fourth quarter.

SMIC will keenly focus on generating profitability for our shareholders. We will continue to develop our capabilities according to our technology roadmap in a fiscally responsible manner. Our 65nm technology development is progressing smoothly. The Chengdu and Wuhan projects allow us to continue to grow our business while managing our internal capital expenditure in an efficient manner. These projects will allow us to better serve our international customers while positioning ourselves closer to potential Chinese customers.

In the fourth quarter, the strategic decision to sell some of SMIC's matured technology machinery and equipment further lowered our future depreciation expenses and enabled the Company to expand towards more advanced technologies. We plan to have controlled capital expenditures of $720 million for 2007.

For the first quarter of 2007, we are expecting more than 17% of our total wafer revenue to come from 90nm sales. We believe the continued prudent development of advanced technology nodes for leading customers positions SMIC for continual growth and improved profitability in 2007."

Litigation

The Company is subject to a pending lawsuit with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Limited ("TSMC"), related to the intangible assets, with a net book value of $94.5 million, the Company recorded for patents licensed from TSMC and TSMC's covenant not to sue the Company regarding certain allegations of acts of trade secret misappropriation. Under 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 such assets have been impaired. We believe that the lawsuit is at a very early stage, TSMC has not produced any evidence of misappropriation 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 on our financial positions and results of operations.

On September 13, 2006, the Company announced that in addition to filing a response (on September 12, 2006) strongly denying the allegations of TSMC in the United States lawsuit, the Company also filed a cross-complaint against TSMC, seeking, amongst 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, Semiconductor Manufacturing International (Shanghai) Corporation and Semiconductor Manufacturing International (Beijing) Corporation 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, amongst 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.

First Quarter 2007 Guidance

The following statements are forward looking statements which are based on current expectation and which involve risks and uncertainties, some of which are set forth under "Safe Harbor Statements" above.

-- Revenues expected to remain flat from the fourth quarter.

-- Gross margins expected to be in the 12% to 14% range.

-- Operating expense excluding any gain from disposal as a percentage of

sales expected to be in the mid-teens.

-- Free cash flow of around $30 million. Free cash flow is defined as

EBITDA less capex.

-- Capital expenditures expected to be approximately $170 million to $190

million and total capex for 2007 will be approximately $720 million.

-- Depreciation and amortization expected to be approximately $185

million to $195 million.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2007, the accounting estimate in the relation to the useful life of fab-related machinery and equipment will be modified. This change will have an effect on the gross margin and depreciation guidance. Currently, we use a five-year straight-line depreciation method. We consider the current useful life estimate overly conservative in light of the expected economic life of the equipment as well as the industry general practice. We will therefore change the useful life estimate to a five to seven year range, which is consistent with industry practice, and will more accurately reflect the economics associated with the ownership of the equipment.
