SANTA CLARA, California - Applied Materials, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMAT), the global leader in manufacturing solutions for the semiconductor, display and solar industries, reported results for its first quarter of fiscal 2014 ended January 26, 2014.
Applied generated orders of $2.29 billion, up 9 percent from the prior quarter led by demand for Silicon Systems Group products. Net sales were $2.19 billion, up 10 percent sequentially. Non-GAAP adjusted gross margin increased to 42.5 percent while non-GAAP adjusted operating income grew 18 percent sequentially to $380 million or 17.4 percent of net sales.

"In our first fiscal quarter, Applied Materials delivered earnings near the high end of our guidance range, while demonstrating momentum in revenue, orders and market share," said Gary Dickerson, Chief Executive Officer. "This performance reflects healthy investment by our semiconductor and display customers and major technology trends that are playing to our strengths in precision materials engineering."
Applied's non-GAAP adjusted results exclude the impact of the following, where applicable: certain acquisition-related costs; restructuring charges and any associated adjustments; impairments of assets, goodwill, or investments; gain or loss on sale of facilities and strategic investments; and certain tax items. A reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted results is provided in the financial tables included in this release. See also "Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures" section.

Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures
Management uses non-GAAP adjusted results to evaluate the company's operating and financial performance in light of business objectives and for planning purposes. These measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Applied believes these measures enhance investors' ability to review the company's business from the same perspective as the company's management and facilitate comparisons of this period's results with prior periods. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
