Revenues of the Memory Products segment are expected to be approximately Euro 766 million, EBIT is likely to be approximately Euro 196 million, including the non-recurring license income of approximately Euro 118 million in connection with the settlement with ProMOS. While bit production has slightly increased, shipments have declined due to an anticipated increase in inventory levels. Revenues and EBIT were negatively affected by the sharp decline of the US dollar.

The information reported above is based on preliminary results. Further analysis will be required to finalize the results for the first quarter. Infineon at present will not provide further information.
