1 Press Release of Dialog Semiconductor Plc dated April 28, 2003:
Dialog provides audio/power controller and
VGA camera for Maxon Telecoms new entertainment/ multimedia phones
New integrated audio and power management device plus a VGA resolution camera module from Dialog Semiconductor are selected for compact GSM/GPRS entertainment/multimedia phones due to ship in 2003
Kirchheim/Teck-Nabern, Germany, April 28, 2003 Dialog Semiconductor Plc (Nasdaq & Nasdaq Europe: DLGS, Prime Standard: DLG) has announced that Maxon Telecom Co. Ltd will use its recently released DA3511 full VGA camera module on the MX-E10, a new entertainment GSM/GPRS phone, and its DA9010 audio and power controller integrated circuit on the MX-E20, a new multimedia GSM/GPRS phone. Both phones will be introduced later this year.
The DA9010 was developed by Dialog Semiconductor with Intel Corporation to support the Intel® PXA800F Cellular Processor, upon which the advanced new Maxon MX-E20 handset is based. The DA3511 is a full VGA still and moving image camera module, based on Dialogs color-CMOS sensor technology and comprises sensor, dedicated image DSP device, lens and housing with flex connector. Both the MX-E10 and MX-E20 are expected to feature dual screen type displays, built-in camera, FM stereo radio and games. The MX-E20 is also expected to include a video player.
Roland Pudelko, CEO & president of Dialog Semiconductor commented, Maxon has produced several successful cellular phones in recent years. We are excited to be incorporated in the latest generation GSM/GPRS handsets developed so soon after launching our integrated controller.
Neil Winder, strategic sourcing manager for Maxon, added; The ability to provide extremely feature-rich handsets depends heavily on both processing power and the ability to prolong battery standby time. Dialog Semiconductors competence in power management, audio processing and imaging technology enables us to provide sophisticated, high quality audio and camera capabilities in our handsets without draining the battery too quickly.

2 Press Release of Dialog Semiconductor Plc dated April 30, 2003:
Dialog Semiconductor reports first quarter results for 2003"
First quarter revenues of EUR 21.0 million - a 10 percent growth compared with Q1-2002
More than 50 per cent of revenues derived from newly introduced products
Design win for audio and power controller plus VGA camera module from Maxon Telecom Co. Ltd
Cash at EUR 30.4 million
Kirchheim/Teck-Nabern, April 30, 2003 Dialog Semiconductor Plc (Nasdaq & Nasdaq Europe: DLGS, Prime Standard: DLG), today reported sales of EUR 21.0 million for the first quarter of 2003, a 10 percent increase compared to the first quarter of 2002. This growth is primarily due to shipments of new products providing high levels of functionality in compact devices. Dialog Semiconductor continues to be free from debt and can rely on its solid balance sheet. At the end of the reporting period, net cash amounted to EUR 30.4 million providing sufficient flexibility for the implementation of future strategic decisions. In order to control both costs and headcount, Dialog closed its Swedish subsidiary. This action resulted in a one-off restructuring and impairment charge which reduced EBIT by EUR 1.5 million.A reduction in EBIT was caused by a one-off restructuring and impairment charges of EUR 1.5 million due to this measure.and recorded a restructuring charge of EUR XX.
In the first quarter, Maxon Telecom Co. Ltd selected Dialogs recently introduced DA9010, a highly integrated audio and power controller, for its MX-E20, a new multimedia GSM/GPRS phone. The DA9010 device was developed by Dialog Semiconductor in collaboration with Intel Corporation to support the Intel ® PXA800F Cellular Processor, and features Dialogs unique Smart MirrorTM low dropout voltage regulator technology. Maxon will also use Dialogs DA3511, a full VGA camera module introduced in November 2002, in its new MX-E10 entertainment GSM/GPRS phone.
Roland Pudelko, Dialogs CEO & president, commented, In the first quarter of 2003, more than 50% of our revenue was derived from products introduced over the last nine months. The fact that we have been able to announce customer take-up of our new application specific standard products and modules demonstrates that we have identified appropriate new application areas through which to exploit Dialogs key strengths our core competence in mixed signal design and in the delivery of product solutions in CMOS technology.

Revenues
Revenues were € 19.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with € 21.0 million for the corresponding period in the current year. The increase in revenues is primarily due to new products introduced in the second half of 2002 with more functionality and accordingly, higher average selling prices. Revenues in the wireless communications business sector accounted for € 13.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with € 14.4 million for the corresponding period in the current year, this represents 69% of total revenues for both periods. Revenues from our industrial applications were € 3.7 million and € 4.0 million or 19% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively. Revenues from our automotive applications accounted for € 1.5 million and € 2.1 million, representing 8% and 10% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively. Revenues from our wireline communication applications were € 0.5 million or 2% of total revenues, a decline of € 0.2 million when compared to the € 0.7 million or 4% of total revenues in the first quarter of 2002.
Due to the introduction of new products to the market we expect revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003 to be higher than those for the year ended December 31, 2002. However, our forward visibility with respect to customer demand is limited and a successful introduction of new products depends on the completion of new designs on a timely basis.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consists of the costs of outsourcing production and assembly, related personnel costs and applicable overhead and depreciation of test and other equipment. Cost of sales increased from € 13.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 to € 14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 in line with increased production volumes. In addition, as a result of higher production volume our internal testing operation has been running at an increased utilization level, which in turn has decreased per unit production costs.
Gross Margin
Our gross margin increased from 28.9% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 to 29.6% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The decrease in per unit production costs was the primary factor contributing to an increase in our gross margin.
We expect the near term future gross margin percentage to approximate the gross margin percentage achieved in 2002 as a result of higher utilization and the expected introduction of new products (with lower initial margins in their ramp-up phase) during 2003.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, travel expenses and costs associated with advertising and other marketing activities. Selling and marketing expenses were € 0.9 million and € 1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively. As a percentage of total revenues, selling and marketing expenses increased from 4.7% to 4.9%.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and support costs for our finance, human resources, information systems and other management departments. General and administrative expenses decreased from € 1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 to € 1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. As a percentage of total revenues, general and administrative expenses decreased from 7.3% to 6.2%.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses consist principally of unreimbursed design and engineering related costs associated with the development of new ASICs and application specific standard products (ASSPs). Research and development expenses increased 9.6% from € 8.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 to € 8.8 million for the three months ended Mach 31, 2003. The absolute increase in research and development expenses was due to costs incurred in assisting key customers in the development of new ASICs for them and costs incurred in the development of ASSPs. Research and development expenses decreased from 42.0% to 41.7% as a percentage of total revenues, resulting from the proportionately higher revenue base. We expect continued demand from key customers for us to assist in the development of new products for them and also expect to continue to incur research and development costs in connection with the development of ASSPs. Our ability to generate long-term revenues from our research and development programs depends on customers accepting our designs and implementing them in large-scale production.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was € 0.4 million as compared to € 0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Amortization expense for intangible assets include ASIC design software, a 16 bit microprocessor core, other intangible assets and in the first quarter 2003 certain imaging patents.
Restructuring and Related Impairment Charges
In the first quarter of 2003 we decided to restructure our organization and to reduce costs by closing our Swedish subsidiary and transferring its activities to other Dialog subsidiaries. In connection with the closure of the facility, we recorded restructuring charges of € 1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Restructuring charges include the obligation for involuntary termination benefits of € 0.8 million that will be paid to all 39 employees affected by the closing and a provision for estimated costs that will continue to be incurred under an operating lease for its remaining term without economic benefit to the Company of € 0.4 million. We determined this provision based on the discounted present value of the remaining contractual lease rental payments, reduced by estimated sublease rentals that could be reasonably obtained for the property. We are currently negotiating with the property owner to terminate this operating lease. We expect that closing the facility will have no impact on future revenues and will provide annualized cost savings of approximately € 2.4 million, of which the majority is associated with reduced employee salaries and related employee costs. We anticipate completing the restructuring plan as well as incurring the related cash outlays for the majority of the restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2003. In addition, we offered incremental termination benefits to our Swedish employees provided that they accepted an early termination of their employment. In April 2003 all affected employees have accepted such early termination. Accordingly, we will incur an additional restructuring charge of € 0.2 million related to these incremental termination benefits in the second quarter of 2003.
As a result of the closure of the facility, certain long-lived assets have or will be transferred to other Dialog subsidiaries. However, certain long-lived assets of our Swedish subsidiary have been abandoned and certain of its prepaid expenses will no longer provide any future benefit to the Company. Accordingly, we recognized an impairment charge of € 0.3 million to write-off these assets in the first quarter of 2003.
See Note 4 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Operating Loss
We reported an operating loss of € 5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and € 6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. This increase in operating loss was primarily due to the restructuring charges and impairment charges of € 1.5 million during the period.
Interest Income, net
Interest income, net from the Companys investments (primarily short-term deposits) was € 0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 0.3 million for the three months ended March 31 2003.
Foreign Currency Exchange Gains, net
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses result from amounts ultimately realized upon settlement of foreign currency transactions and from the period end remeasurement of foreign currency denominated receivables and payables into the functional currency of the respective entity. Foreign currency exchange gains, net increased from € 6,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 to € 36,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
Recovery of Investment
In the fourth quarter of 2001, we determined that our ability to recover the full amount of our investments in silicon supplier ESM Holding Limited (ESM) was impaired. Accordingly we wrote off our investments in ESM. In the first quarter 2002, International Rectifier acquired ESM. As a result we were able to recover € 6.5 million and € 0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was € 0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with an income tax benefit of € 1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003, representing an effective income tax rate of 36.0% and 27.3 %, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to certain costs related to the closing our Swedish operations that are not deductible for tax purposes and a valuation allowance that was recognized on our Swedish deferred tax assets because the benefits of these assets are no longer expected to be realized.
Net Income (Loss)
For the reasons described above, we reported net income of € 0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with net loss of € 4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flows
Cash provided by operating activities was € 3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with cash provided by operating activities of € 2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. In both quarters, our working capital (excluding cash and cash equivalents) decreased in line with seasonal reduced business volumes and resulted in a related increase in cash and cash equivalents.
Cash provided by investing activities was € 5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared with cash used for investing activities of € 2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Cash provided by investing activities in the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, reflects primarily the payment we received in connection with the recovery of a portion of our ESM investment of € 6.5 million. Cash used for investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2003 consisted mostly of the purchase of test equipment, tooling (masks), laboratory equipment and EDP equipment of € 2.6 million and the purchase of software and licenses of € 0.4 million.
Liquidity
At March 31, 2003 we had € 30.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and had working capital of € 70.1 million.
Our primary sources of liquidity have historically been cash from operations as well as cash from the issuance of ordinary shares and from short-term borrowings as well as the recovery of the investment in ESM Limited. As of March 31, 2003 we had no long-term debt. We have no arrangements with unconsolidated, special purpose entities. We expect to use a portion of our cash and cash equivalents in 2003 to finance working capital resulting from expected increased business volumes. A decrease in customer demand for our products caused by prolonged unfavorable industry conditions or an inability to develop new products in response to technological changes could materially reduce the amount of cash generated from operations.
If necessary, we have available for use a short-term credit facility of €12.8 million that bears interest at a rate of EURIBOR + 0.75% per annum. At March 31, 2003 we had no amounts outstanding under this facility. Accordingly, we believe the funding available from these and other sources will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital requirements in the near to medium term.

Backlog
In accordance with the German Stock Exchange rules and regulations, companies are required to disclose information regarding their backlog. Purchase order patterns of Dialogs customers can vary widely and therefore no consistent shipping arrangements have been set up. Ship-to-lineagreements with major customers underline Dialogs responsibility to act on a timely basis to ensure appropriate stock levels and production capabilities. Other customers place purchase orders ranging from four to twelve weeks and provide forecasts for a further period, generally not to exceed twelve months and these purchase orders are not legally binding. Since any backlog information published would not be based on a consistent pattern of purchase orders by our customers, we believe such information not to be meaningful and, accordingly, do not provide such information.
To the Board of Directors
Dialog Semiconductor Plc:
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Dialog Semiconductor Plc and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2003, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of Dialog Semiconductor Plc and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended; and in our report dated February 25, 2003, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2002, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(In thousands of €, unless otherwise stated)
1. Description of Business
Dialog Semiconductor Plc and subsidiaries ("Dialog" or the "Company") is a fabless semiconductor company that designs and develops innovative mixed signal and system level integrated circuit solutions, with world-leading chip designs for power management, audio processing and imaging. Production of these designs is then outsourced, and the final products are returned to Dialog for approval and testing before delivery to the customers.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America on a basis, which reflects the interim consolidated financial statements of the Company. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys December 31, 2002 consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2003.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The Companys future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Companys future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from historical results include, but are not limited to, the highly cyclical nature of both the semiconductor and wireless communications industries, dependence on certain customers and the ability to obtain adequate supply of sub-micron wafers.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan that is accounted for under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income (loss), as all options granted by the plan had an exercise price equal to market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. It applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and (or) the normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. SFAS 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and subsequently allocated to expense over the assets useful life. The Company adopted SFAS 143 on January 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 143 had no impact on the Companys interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS 146 applies to costs associated with an exit activity that does not involve an entity newly acquired in a business combination or with a disposal activity covered by SFAS 144. SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. SFAS 146 applies for exit and disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. As more fully described in Note 4, the Company announced its plan to exit its Swedish operations in the first quarter 2003.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, which amends SFAS 123. SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation and also requires more prominent disclosures in both interim and annual financial statements about the method of accounting used for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Company has included the required additional interim disclosures above.
3. Segment Reporting
The Company has one operating segment, which is the design and supply of semiconductor chips. The Company is managed by revenue derived by significant product-type.
Revenues by product-type consisted of the following:

4. Restructuring and Related Impairment Charges
Restructuring and related asset impairment charges are comprised of € 1,180 restructuring charges and € 285 impairment charges totaling € 1,465 for the three-months ended March 31, 2003.
a) Restructuring Charges
In the first quarter of 2003 the Company decided to restructure its organization and to reduce costs by closing the Swedish subsidiary. Restructuring charges include the obligation for involuntary termination benefits that will be paid to all employees affected by the closing and a provision for estimated costs that will continue to be incurred under an operating lease for the building for its remaining term without economic benefit to the Company. This provision reflects the estimated fair value of this obligation under SFAS 146 and was determined based on the discounted present value of the contractual remaining lease rental payments, reduced by estimated sublease rentals that could be reasonably obtained for the property.
The pretax amounts for the restructuring charges are comprised of the following and are included in other current liabilitiesin the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2003:
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Employee termination costs | Facility exit costs | Total |
Liability balance at January 1, 2003 |
| - | - | - |
Initial charges |
| 834 | 346 | 1,180 |
Payments made |
| - | - | - |
Liability balance at March 31, 2003 |
| 834 | 346 | 1,180 |
In addition, the Company offered incremental termination benefits to its Swedish employees provided that they accepted the early termination of their employment. In April 2003 all affected employees have accepted such early termination. Accordingly, the Company will recognize an additional restructuring charge of € 242 related to these incremental termination benefits in the second quarter of 2003. The Company is currently negotiating with the property owner to terminate the operating lease. The Company anticipates completing the restructuring plan as well as incurring the related cash outlays for the majority of the restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2003.
b) Asset Impairment Charges
As a result of the closure of the facility, certain long-lived assets have been abandoned and certain prepaid expenses will no longer provide any future benefit to the Company. Accordingly, impairment charges totalling € 285 have been recognized for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 to write-off these assets.
5. Inventories
Inventories consisted of the following at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002:
|
|
|
---|---|---|
|
At | At |
Raw materials | 5,209 | 5,346 |
Work-in-process | 4,812 | 5,131 |
Finished goods | 4,316 | 4,030 |
| 14,337 | 14,507 |
6. Intangible assets
Intangible assets subject to amortization comprise:
|
At |
At |
---|---|---|
Gross carrying amount | 13,736 | 13,458 |
Accumulated depreciation | (7,019) | (6,536) |
Net carrying amount | 6,717 | 6,922 |
Dialog's intangible assets subject to amortization primarily represent licenses, patents and software. During the three months ended March 31,2003, the Company acquired software and licenses for a total purchase price of € 357. The expected weighted average useful life of these assets is 3 years. The aggregate amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 was € 551 and € 447, respectively. Amortization expense of the gross carrying amount of intangible assets at March 31, 2003 is estimated to be € 1,506 for the remainder of 2003, € 1,385 in 2004, € 854 in 2005, €497 in 2006 and € 487 in 2007.
7. Earnings (Loss) per Share
Earnings per share is determined as follows:
|
|

Earnings (loss) per share - basic | (0.11) | 0.02 |
Earnings (loss) per share - diluted | (0.11) | 0.02 |
1) 1,168 options were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share in 2002 because the optionsunderlying exercise prices were greater than the average market price for Dialog ordinary shares in the three months ended March 31, 2002. Because the company reported a net loss for the three months ended March 31,2003, only basic per share amount has been presented for this period.
