SANTA CLARA, Calif., February 13, 2013 - Applied Materials, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMAT),
the global leader in  manufacturing solutions for the semiconductor, display and
solar industries, today reported results for its first quarter of fiscal 2013

Applied generated orders of $2.11 billion and net sales of $1.57 billion. The
company reported operating income of $39 million and net income of $34 million
or 3 cents per diluted share. Non-GAAP operating income was $112 million, and
non-GAAP net income was $69 million or 6 cents per share, at the high end of the

are optimistic about the potential of our markets this year," said Mike
Splinter, chairman and chief executive officer. "2013 looks to be another strong
year for mobile products like smartphones and tablets, and customers are

First Quarter Reportable Segment Results and Comparisons to the Prior Quarter
Silicon Systems Group (SSG) orders were $1.36 billion, up 84 percent primarily
due to increased demand in foundry and memory, partially offset by lower orders
in logic. Net sales were $969 million, up 11 percent. Non-GAAP operating income
increased to $180 million or 18.6 percent of net sales. GAAP operating income
increased to $134 million or 13.8 percent of net sales. New order composition
was: foundry 73 percent, logic and other 12 percent, flash 8 percent, and DRAM
7 percent.
Applied Global Services (AGS) orders were $544 million, down 6 percent primarily
due to lower orders of 200mm equipment. Net sales were $471 million, down 24
percent from the prior quarter which benefited from the sale of a thin film
production line. Non-GAAP operating income decreased to $91 million or 19.3
percent of net sales. GAAP operating income decreased to $89 million or 18.9
percent of net sales.
Display orders were $138 million, up 66 percent from low levels. Net sales were
$87 million, down 6 percent. Non-GAAP operating income increased to $5 million
or 5.7 percent of net sales. GAAP operating income remained at $3 million or
3.4 percent of net sales.
Energy and Environmental Solutions (EES) orders were $68 million, up 5 percent
from low levels, with the majority of orders for web coating equipment. Net
sales were $46 million, down 26 percent. EES had a non-GAAP operating loss of
$44 million and a GAAP operating loss of $54 million.
Additional Quarterly Financial Information

* Backlog increased by 31 percent sequentially  to $2.11 billion including
negative adjustments of $40 million.
* Gross margin was 39.8 percent on a non-GAAP basis, up from 38.4 percent  in
the prior quarter due to a more favorable product mix. GAAP gross margin was
37.0 percent.
* Operating expenses were $514 million on a non-GAAP basis, below the
company's expectation due to approximately $20 million in favorable expense
items. GAAP operating expenses were $543 million.
* The effective tax rate was 24.2 percent on a non-GAAP basis. The GAAP
effective tax rate was a benefit of 88.9 percent, reflecting the favorable
resolution of a tax audit and the reinstatement of the U.S. R&D tax credit.
* The company paid $108 million in cash dividends and used $48 million to
repurchase 4 million shares of its common stock.
* Cash, cash equivalents and investments ended the quarter at $2.82 billion.

Business Outlook
For the second quarter of fiscal 2013, Applied expects net sales to be up 15 to
25 percent sequentially. The company expects non-GAAP EPS to be in the range of
$0.09 to $0.15. The non-GAAP EPS outlook excludes known charges related to
completed acquisitions of approximately $0.04 per share but does not exclude
other non-GAAP adjustments that may arise subsequent to this release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses non-GAAP 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.
Webcast Information
Applied Materials will discuss these results during an earnings call that begins
at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time today. A live webcast will be available at
www.appliedmaterials.com.  A replay will be available on the website beginning
at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time today.
