All currency figures stated in this report are in US Dollars unless stated otherwise.

(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 September 30, 2013.

Third Quarter 2013 Highlights:

Fourth Quarter 2013 Guidance:

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

Dr. Tzu-Yin Chiu, SMIC's Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director, commented, "SMIC has achieved another good quarter. Revenue excluding Wuhan wafer shipment was $503.7 million in the third quarter of 2013, representing a robust year over year growth of 21.7% and a sequential growth of 0.4%. Total revenue including Wuhan wafer shipments declined 1.3% sequentially as we exit our relationship with Wuhan Xinxin. I'm also pleased that we made $42.5 million in profit attributable to SMIC, which is our sixth consecutive quarter of positive profit.
 
I am happy to announce that 40nm wafer revenue grew 50.3% sequentially to 15.7% of total wafer revenue. This growth was mainly driven by smartphone related products. Meanwhile, 40nm new tape outs grew significantly in the second half of this year, driven by both consumer and communications products like smartphones, set-top box, IPTV, and tablets. As a result, we are targeting strong growth for 40nm next year.
 
During the quarter, demand for our differentiated applications continued to be strong, especially in the areas of power management, CIS, and EEPROM. Revenue from our differentiated applications, specifically PMIC, CIS, and EEPROM, grew over 50% year over year in 3Q2013 compared to 3Q2012.
 
We target another full year of record high revenue in 2013 with sustainable profitability and growth as our priority. Looking into 2014, we aim to outgrow the industry average again. We have a number of exciting opportunities ahead of us. 1) Our 40nm ramp up will continue. 2) Our 28nm technology is coming on line. 3) Our embedded Non-Volatile Memory (e-NVM) is finding wide spread customer acceptance. 4) A number of other differentiated technologies will be rolling out in 2014. And lastly, our new capacity for high-end and mature technology is coming on line. It will be an exciting 2014."

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 under "Fourth Quarter 2013 Guidance" and in the last paragraph of the quote of SMIC's Chief Executive Officer, as well as the statements regarding future 2013 capital expenditures are based on SMIC's current assumptions, expectations and projections about future events. SMIC uses words like "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "expect," "project" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These forward-looking statements 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 the global economic slowdown, orders or judgments from pending litigation and financial stability in end markets.

Investors should consider the information contained in SMIC's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including its annual report on 20-F filed with the SEC on April 15, 2013, especially the consolidated financial statements, and such other documents that SMIC may file with the SEC or The Hong Kong Stock Exchange Limited ("SEHK") from time to time, including current reports 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.

About Non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("Non-GAAP") Financial Measures

To supplement SMIC's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with IFRS, SMIC uses in this press release measures of operating results that are adjusted to exclude wafer shipments from Wuhan Xinxin Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation ("Wuhan Xinxin"), which SMIC began gradually phasing out in 3Q13. This earnings release includes non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP cost of sales and non-GAAP gross margin. It also includes fourth quarter 2013 guidance for non-GAAP revenues and non-GAAP gross margin, which exclude such shipments, and for non-GAAP operating expenses, which is adjusted to exclude the effect of foreign exchange, employee bonus accrual, funding of R&D contracts from the government and gain from the disposal of living quarters. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS.

SMIC believes that use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' and management's comparisons to SMIC's historical performance. The Company's management regularly uses these non-GAAP financial measures to understand, manage and evaluate the Company's business and make financial and operational decisions.

The accompanying table has more information and reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis.

  • Revenue decreased to $534.3 million in 3Q13, down 1.3% QoQ from $541.3 million in 2Q13, mainly due to a decrease of revenue generated by shipments from Wuhan Xinxin. The Company began phasing out wafer shipments from Wuhan Xinxin in 3Q13.
  • Non-GAAP revenue excluding wafer shipments from Wuhan Xinxin was $503.7 million in 3Q13, compared to $501.8 million in 2Q13.
  • Cost of sales increased to $422.3 million in 3Q13, up 4.0% QoQ from $406.1 million in 2Q13.
  • Gross profit was $112.0 million in 3Q13, a decrease of 17.2% QoQ from $135.2 million in 2Q13.
  • Gross margin was 21.0% in 3Q13, down from 25.0% in 2Q13 primarily due to lower fab utilization in 3Q13 and product mix change.
  • Non-GAAP gross margin excluding wafer shipments from Wuhan Xinxin was 22.1% in 3Q13, down from 26.7% in 2Q13.
  • Operating expenses increased to $63.4 million in 3Q13, an increase of 13.1% QoQ from $56.1 million in 2Q13, mainly due to the reasons stated in Operating Expenses (Income) Analysis below.

  • R&D expenses increased to $37.6 million in 3Q13, compared to $36.7 million in 2Q13. The increase was primarily due to an $6.8 million increase in R&D expenses associated with higher R&D activities from quarter to quarter, partially offset by a $6.0 million increase in funding of R&D contracts from the government, which was $9.0 million in 3Q13, compared to $3.0 million in 2Q13.
  • General and administrative expenses decreased to $24.7 million in 3Q13, down 42.0% QoQ from $42.6 million in 2Q13, mainly due to a decrease of employee bonus accrual in 3Q13.
  • Other operating income was $8.2 million in 3Q13, compared to $33.1 million in 2Q13, and consisted mainly of the gain arising from the disposal of part of the Company-owned living quarters in Shanghai. This 75.3% decrease from 2Q13 was mainly due to a one-time gain recorded in 2Q13 arising from the disposal of the Company's total ownership interest in SMIC (Wuhan) Development Corporation.

Cash and bank balances increased to $473.5 million in 3Q13, up 80.1% QoQ from $263.0 million in

2Q13 primarily because 1) of the receipt of $108.0 million in cash as partial capital contribution for the

joint venture company established in Beijing from the other shareholders of the joint venture and

2) the Company drew down some of the bank borrowings during 3Q13.

Note:

(1) SMIC defines non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP cost of sales and non-GAAP gross margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures, as revenue, cost of sales and gross margin, in each case excluding wafer shipments from Wuhan Xinxin. SMIC reviews non-GAAP financial measures together with revenue, cost of sales and gross margin to understand, manage and evaluate its business and make financial and operational decisions. The Company also believe it is useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the effect of wafer shipments from Wuhan Xinxin, which were not output through its production capacity. SMIC announced in March 2013 that it had ceased to manage and operate the 300mm wafer fab in Wuhan owned by Wuhan Xinxin, and began gradually phasing out wafer shipments from Wuhan Xinxin in 3Q13. However, the use of non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as an analytical tool. One of the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they does not include all items that impact our net profit for the period. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similar titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-GAAP financial measure in isolation from or as an alternative to revenue, cost of sales and gross margin prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of each of non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP cost of sales and non-GAAP gross margin to its most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with IFRS, for the periods indicated.
