Sales in the month of December were particularly weak as the current economic recessionary environment began impacting customers in most Xilinx end markets. With the exception of sales to Industrial and Other which were flat, sales to other end markets declined sequentially in the December quarter.

Continued cost reduction efforts contributed to improved gross and operating margins during the quarter. Operating margin of 26.1% was up from 24.3% in the same quarter of the prior year and the highest reported in over three years. Gross margin of 63.9% was up from 63.3% in the same quarter of the prior year and the highest reported in over four years.

"Sales from the Company's flagship Virtex-5 family posted exceptionally strong growth in the December quarter increasing 35% sequentially and representing 15% of total sales, up from 10% in the prior quarter," said Moshe Gavrielov, Xilinx President and Chief Executive Officer. "The success of this product family in today's challenging economic environment underscores a growing affinity for programmable solutions versus ASIC alternatives. Programmable solutions provide customers with lower risk, greater flexibility and, in many cases, lower total overall cost."
