TEMPE, Ariz. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — July 27, 2015 — Amkor Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMKR), a leading provider of semiconductor packaging and test services, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.
“We generated $737M in Q2 revenues, roughly flat to Q1,” said Steve Kelley, Amkor's president and chief executive officer. “Profitability was constrained due to lower revenues and a weaker product mix.”

*Second quarter 2015 results include a $9 million ($0.04 per diluted share) charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the redemption of all $345 million aggregate principal amount of Amkor's outstanding 7.375% Senior Notes due 2018. Second quarter 2014 results include a net gain of $18 million ($0.08 per diluted share) related to the sale of Amkor's Japanese subsidiary to J-Devices, its joint venture in Japan.
During the second quarter we completed the redemption of our 7.375% Senior Notes due 2018 using cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facilities which bear interest at floating rates tied to LIBOR. Based on current interest rates, we expect to save approximately $17 million in annual interest expense from the redemption.
Cash and cash equivalents were $442 million, and total debt was $1.5 billion, at June 30, 2015.
Business Outlook
“We expect sluggish mobile device market conditions to persist through most of Q3, with revenues slightly down compared with Q2,” said Kelley. “We are cautiously optimistic that demand will strengthen in the fourth quarter with the anticipated launch of flagship mobile devices. Due to the changed demand outlook, we are reducing our estimate of full year 2015 capital expenditures to around $550 million, including around $150 million of spending for our new K5 facility."
Based upon currently available information, we have the following expectations for the third quarter 2015:
- Net sales of $700 million to $750 million, down 5% to up 2% from the prior quarter
- Gross margin of 13% to 16%
- Net loss of $7 million to net income of $14 million, or ($0.03) to $0.06 per share
