PCS operating loss of $55 million in 2005 was flat compared to an operating loss of $54 million in 2004. The increase in net sales of $5 million from 2004
to 2005 was offset by an increase in operating expenses of $6 million.
PCS operating loss of $54 million in 2004 increased compared to an operating loss of $12 million in 2003. The increase in the operating loss was primarily
due to a $31 million increase in operating expenses. Operating expenses increased due to an increase of approximately $23 million in manufacturing costs as a
result of a change in product mix and an aggregate increase of $9 million in marketing, general and administrative expenses as a result of activities related to our
AMD Geode products and other product development. Manufacturing costs increased primarily because we manufactured more AMD Geode products, which
generally are more expensive to manufacture than our other embedded processors.
All Other Category
All Other net sales in 2005 were $6 million because of sales of PIC products. We did not generate any material sales from PIC products in 2004 or 2003.
All Other operating loss of $19 million in 2005 decreased from $25 million in 2004, primarily due to restructuring and other special charges of $5 million
incurred during 2004 due to a change in our estimate of potential sublease revenue.
All Other operating loss in 2004 was $25 million compared to operating income of $1 million in 2003. We incurred an operating loss in 2004, primarily
due to operating expenses associated with developing and marketing PIC products. In addition, All Other operating loss in 2004 included approximately $5
million of restructuring and other special charges due to a change in our estimate of potential sublease revenue, while in 2003 we had a $14 million credit
adjustment to the restructuring charge primarily because we reduced the estimate of the numbers of positions to be eliminated in response to the additional
resources required due to the Spansion LLC transaction and reversed the associated severance and fringe benefit accrual.

margin than Flash
