PRESS RELEASE COMMUNIQUE DE PRESSE COMMUNICATO STAMPA PRESSEINFORMATION
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------



                                                                   PR No. C1037H


             STMicroelectronics Updates Second Quarter 2001 Outlook



GENEVA-- June 14, 2001 -- STMicroelectronics (NYSE:STM) announced that its 2001
second quarter revenues and gross margin are being further penalized by the
well-documented weaknesses in several end-markets that it serves. Therefore,
based upon currently available information, the Company now expects revenues for
the quarter ending June 30, 2001 to be in the range of $1.55 billion to $1.60
billion, below the $1.65 billion to $1.8 billion range previously anticipated.
This reflects year-over-year and sequential sales declines in telecom and
computer peripheral applications. Memory products, while still slightly above
second quarter 2000 levels, will decline sequentially versus first quarter 2001
levels, due to lower-than-expected demand and increased pricing pressure.
Revenues for smartcard devices will decline both year-over-year and
sequentially. Digital consumer revenues in the 2001 second quarter will be down
compared to second quarter 2000, but should be comparable to those of first
quarter 2001.

The sequential revenue decline anticipated for the 2001 second quarter is likely
to result in a gross margin of approximately 38% which would be below the lower
end of the guidance provided in the Company's news release dated April 19, 2001.
In addition to the difficult pricing environment, the Company's gross margin has
been affected by lower-than-expected utilization rates at ST's 6" wafer fabs. By
contrast, the Company is maintaining utilization rates averaging 85% at its five
leading-edge 8" wafer fabs.

The Company stated that while it is disappointed by recent order postponements,
it continues to maintain relatively strong financial performance and to increase
market share in its targeted applications.

The Company continues to implement cost control initiatives in response to
difficult market and economic conditions. On May 31, 2001, ST announced the
reduction of its 2001 capital investments to $1.5 billion from $1.9 billion and
the transfer of its Ottawa front-end wafer-fabrication production to its other
manufacturing facilities around the world.

Outlook information regarding the third quarter will be included in the
Company's second quarter earnings announcement.
