-- Gross margins improved to 14.6% in 1Q10 compared to 7.6% in 4Q09

primarily due to an increase in wafer shipments and higher ASP.

-- Net cash flow from operations has increased to $153.1 million in 1Q10

from $89.3 million in 4Q09.

-- Loss attributable to holders of ordinary shares narrowed to US$181.9

million in 1Q10, compared to loss of US$617.7 million in 4Q09.

-- Fully diluted EPS was ($0.41) per ADS.

Second Quarter 2010 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" below.

-- Revenue is expected to range from 3% to 5% increase.

-- Operating expenses excluding foreign exchange differences are expected

Commenting on the quarterly results, Dr. David NK Wang, President and Chief Executive Officer of SMIC remarked, "In the first quarter of 2010, our ASP improved due to better product mix, our utilization improved to 92.1%, and our gross margin improved to 14.6%. Regionally, the North America and China continue to account for most our revenues and quarter-over-quarter growth. North America contributed more than half of revenues and 10.2% of growth, and China contributed almost one-fourth of revenues and 17.6% of growth. We saw revenue for our 90-nanometer and below technologies improve by 14.3% and we anticipate steadily improving gross margins."

"The foundry market looks positive. We continue to see uptrend in the second quarter and remain cautiously optimistic about the third and fourth quarters. We will continue our organizational and business enhancements and look forward to updating the investment community regularly. We appreciate your support. Our top priority of sustainable profitability remains unchanged and we will strive to enhance SMIC's fundamentals for further profitable expansion."

Safe Harbor Statements

(Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995)

This press release contains, in addition to historical information, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements, including statements concerning, the Company continues to see uptrend in the second quarter and remain cautiously optimistic about the second half of 2010; the Company's goal of sustainable profitability and statements under "Second Quarter 2010 Guidance" are based on SMIC's current assumptions, expectations and projections about future events. SMIC uses words like "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "expect," "project," "confident" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of SMIC's senior management and involve significant risks, both known and unknown, uncertainties and other factors that may cause SMIC's actual performance, financial condition or results of operations to be materially different from those suggested by the forward-looking statements, including among others, risks associated with cyclicality and market conditions in the semiconductor industry, intense competition, timely wafer acceptance by SMIC's customers, timely introduction of new technologies, SMIC's ability to ramp new products into volume, supply and demand for semiconductor foundry services, industry overcapacity, shortages in equipment, components and raw materials, availability of manufacturing capacity, financial stability in end markets, future fluctuations of the share price of SMIC and possible future litigation and claims.

Investors should consider the information contained in SMIC's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including its Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on June 22, 2009, especially in the "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections, and such other documents that SMIC may file with the SEC or SEHK from time to time, including on Form 6-K. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could have material adverse effects on SMIC's future results, performance or achievements. In light of these risks, uncertainties, assumptions and factors, the forward-looking events discussed in this press release may not occur. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date stated, or if no date is stated, as of the date of this press release. Except as may be required by law, SMIC undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Material Litigation

The Company settled all pending litigation with TSMC on November 9, 2009, including the legal action filed in California for which a verdict was returned by the jury against SMIC on November 4, 2009, with a Settlement Agreement (the "2009 Settlement Agreement") which replaced the 2005 Settlement Agreement. The 2009 Settlement Agreement resolved all pending lawsuits between the parties and the parties have since dismissed all pending litigation between them. The terms of the 2009 Settlement Agreement include the following:

1) Entry of judgment and mutual release of all claims that were or could

have been brought in the pending lawsuits;

2) Termination of SMIC's obligation to make remaining payments under the

2005 Settlement Agreement between the parties (approximately US$40

million);

3) Payment to TSMC of an aggregate of US$200 million (with US$15 million

paid upon execution, funded from SMIC's existing cash balances, and the

remainder to be paid in installments over a period of four years);

4) Commitment to grant to TSMC of 1,789,493,218 shares of SMIC

(representing approximately 8% of SMIC's issued share capital as of

October 31, 2009) and a warrant exercisable within three years of

issuance to subscribe for 695,914,030 shares of SMIC, at a purchase

price of HK$1.30 per share Both the shares and the warrant would allow

TSMC to obtain total ownership of approximately 10% of SMIC's issued

share capital after giving effect to the share issuances and are

subject to receipt of required government and regulatory approvals; and

5) Certain remedies in the event of breach of this settlement.

Contingent Liability

In 2008, the Company entered into equipment purchase and cooperative manufacturing arrangements (the "Arrangements") with an unrelated semiconductor manufacturer (the "Counterparty"). Such cooperative manufacturing arrangements ended in 2008 as scheduled. In 2009, the Company received notifications from the Counterparty that the Company was responsible for additional equipment relocation expenses and a portion of the losses incurred during the term of the cooperative manufacturing arrangement. The Company has contested the claims and demanded further information supporting the Counterparty's claims. The Counterparty also filed a demand for dispute arbitration in late 2009 for a portion of the claims. The Company plans to continue its investigations and negotiations with the Counterparty. The total amount of the claims is approximately US$45 million. The Company recorded its best estimate of the probable amount of its liability on the claims in the consolidated financial statements as of and during the year ended December 31, 2009.

The Company continues to assess contingent liability and maintains its estimate of the probable amount of its liability on the claims in the consolidated financial statements as of the date of this report.
