Summary
This 8-K filing from Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) dated April 13, 2005, primarily serves to announce the company's financial results for the quarter ended March 27, 2005. The report indicates that the company has released a press release (Exhibit 99.1) containing these operational and financial condition details. Investors should note that this filing is furnished under Items 2.02 and 7.01, meaning it is not deemed 'filed' for Section 18 purposes and is not automatically incorporated into other filings unless specifically referenced. The press release likely contains key financial metrics, including revenue, profitability, and potentially non-GAAP measures such as EBITDA. The company explicitly states that EBITDA is presented because management believes it is of interest to investors and lenders concerning capital structure and borrowing capacity. However, AMD emphasizes that EBITDA is not a GAAP measure and should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP metrics like net income or cash flows. Investors are advised to review the accompanying press release for the specific financial figures and reconciliations to GAAP.
