Sanmina-SCI Makes Strategic Move to Expand RF/Microwave and Micro/Opto-Electronic Capabilities  

The Company has executed a definitive agreement to acquire BreconRidge Corporation, an innovative design, engineering and manufacturing services provider for RF/microwave and micro/opto-electronic products that service the networking/communications, medical, industrial, aerospace and defense markets.  As part of the transaction, Sanmina-SCI will acquire a world-class design and engineering team with expertise in advanced broadband applications (currently up to 100+ Gb/s) and wireless/radar/satellite applications, and state of the art manufacturing operations in Canada and China.

The agreement is subject to certain customary closing conditions and is expected to close in approximately 30 days.  The purchase price will be up to $53 million including equity and assumption of certain liabilities, and is subject to post closing adjustments.  BreconRidge's revenue run rate is approximately $45 million per quarter.  The Company expects revenue to be in the range of $250 to $300 million per year over the next twelve months with the increase in technology and service offerings.   The transaction is expected to be accretive to earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis within the first year.

"This acquisition strengthens both our position and our customer base in RF/microwave and micro/opto-electronic technologies.  We are excited to work with BreconRidge's great customers and look forward to continuing to provide them with enhanced design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities.  Upon completion of this transaction, Sanmina-SCI will be the leading electronics manufacturing services provider for these rapidly expanding leading-edge technologies," stated Sola.

(1)Earnings Per Share Calculation

The Company completed a reverse split of its common stock at a ratio of one for six, effective August 14, 2009. Earnings per share data contained in this release for periods prior to such date have been calculated on a post split basis.  

(2)Non-GAAP Financial Information

In the commentary set forth above and/or in the financial statements included in this earnings release, we present the following non-GAAP financial measures:  revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating income, operating margin, net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share.  In computing each of these non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude charges or gains relating to: stock-based compensation expenses, restructuring costs (including employee severance and benefits costs and charges related to excess facilities and assets), integration costs (consisting of costs associated with the integration of acquired businesses into our operations), impairment charges for goodwill and intangible assets, amortization expense and other infrequent or unusual items (including charges for customer bankruptcy reorganizations, litigation settlements and discrete tax events), to the extent material or which we consider to be of a non-operational nature in the applicable period.  See Schedule 1 below for more information regarding our use of non-GAAP financial measures, including the economic substance behind each exclusion, the manner in which management uses non-GAAP measures to conduct and evaluate the business, the material limitations associated with using such measures and the manner in which management compensates for such limitations. A reconciliation from GAAP to non-GAAP results is included in the financial statements contained in this release and is also available on the Investor Relations section of our website at www.sanmina-sci.com.  Sanmina-SCI provides third quarter outlook information only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent uncertainties associated with forecasting the timing and amount of restructuring, impairment and other unusual and infrequent items.

Sanmina-SCI Safe Harbor Statement

Certain statements contained in this press release, including the closing date and anticipated benefits of the Company's pending acquisition of BreconRidge and the Company's outlook for future revenue and earnings per share and statements concerning future customer demand and growth constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in these statements as a result of a number of factors, including failure of future sales from BreconRidge to meet forecasts, any failure to obtain any required approvals for the closing of the BreconRidge acquisition, a return of adverse conditions in the market for the Company's customers' products and the global economy as a whole, which could negatively impact the Company's revenue and the Company's customers' ability to pay for the Company's products; additional customer bankruptcy filings; supply shortages, negatively impacting pricing, inventory levels and shipping schedules; the sufficiency of the Company's cash position and other sources of liquidity to operate and expand its business; impact of the restrictions contained in the Company's credit agreements and indentures upon the Company's ability to operate and expand its business; competition negatively impacting the Company's revenues and margins; any failure of the Company to effectively assimilate acquired businesses and achieve the anticipated benefits of its acquisitions; the need to adopt future restructuring plans as a result of changes in the Company's business; and the other factors set forth in the Company's annual report for fiscal 2009 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC").

The Company is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or alter any of the forward-looking statements made in this earnings release, the conference call or the Investor Relations section of our website whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless otherwise required by law.

Schedule I

The tables contained above include non-GAAP measures of revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating income, operating margin, net income and earnings per share.  Management excludes from these measures stock-based compensation, restructuring and integration expenses, impairment charges, amortization charges and other infrequent items, including customer bankruptcy impacts, to the extent material or which we consider to be of a non-operational nature in the applicable period.

Management excludes these items principally because such charges are not directly related to the Company's ongoing core business operations. We use such non-GAAP measures in order to (1) make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of Company's operations, both internally and externally, (2) guide management in assessing performance of the business, internally allocating resources and making decisions in furtherance of Company's strategic plan, (3) provide investors with a better understanding of how management plans and measures the business and (4) provide investors with a better understanding of the ongoing, core business. The material limitations to management's approach include the fact that the charges and expenses excluded are nonetheless charges required to be recognized under GAAP. Management compensates for these limitations primarily by using GAAP results to obtain a complete picture of the Company's performance and by including a reconciliation of non-GAAP results back to GAAP in its earnings releases.

Additional information regarding the economic substance of each exclusion, management's use of the resultant non-GAAP measures, the material limitations of management's approach and management's methods for compensating for such limitations is provided below.

Stock-based Compensation Expense, which consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of stock options and unvested restricted stock units granted to employees, is excluded in order to permit more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company's results since the Company grants different amounts and value of stock options in each quarter. In addition, given the fact that competitors grant different amounts and types of equity award and may use different option valuation assumptions, excluding stock-based compensation permits more accurate comparisons of the Company's core results with those of its competitors.

Restructuring and Integration Costs, which consist of severance, lease termination, exit costs and other charges primarily related to closing and consolidating manufacturing facilities and those associated with the integration of acquired businesses into our operations, are excluded because such charges (1) can be driven by the timing of acquisitions which are difficult to predict, (2) are not directly related to ongoing business results and (3) do not reflect expected future operating expenses. In addition, given the fact that the Company's competitors complete acquisitions and adopt restructuring plans at different times and in different amounts than the Company, excluding these charges permits more accurate comparisons of the Company's core results with those of its competitors. Items excluded by the Company may be different from those excluded by the Company's competitors and restructuring and integration expenses include both cash and non-cash expenses. Cash expenses reduce the Company's liquidity. Therefore, management also reviews GAAP results including these amounts.

Impairment Charges, which consist of non-cash charges resulting primarily from the Company's net book value exceeding its market capitalization due to weak macroeconomic conditions, are excluded because such charges are non-recurring and do not reduce the Company's liquidity. In addition, given the fact that the Company's competitors may record impairment charges at different times, excluding these charges permits more accurate comparisons of the Company's core results with those of its competitors.

Amortization Charges, which consist of non-cash charges impacted by the timing and magnitude of acquisitions of businesses or assets, are also excluded because such charges do not reduce the Company's liquidity or availability under its credit facilities. In addition, such charges can be driven by the timing of acquisitions, which is difficult to predict. Excluding these charges permits more accurate comparisons of the Company's core results with those of its competitors because the Company's competitors complete acquisitions at different times and for different amounts than the Company.    

Other Items, which consist of other infrequent or unusual items (including charges for customer bankruptcy reorganizations, litigation settlements and discrete tax events), to the extent material or non-operational in nature, are excluded because such items are typically non-recurring, difficult to predict and generally not directly related to the Company's ongoing core operations. However, items excluded by the Company may be different from those excluded by the Company's competitors. In addition, these expenses include both cash and non-cash expenses. Cash expenses reduce the Company's liquidity. Management compensates for these limitations by reviewing GAAP results including these amounts.
