last year&#146;s first quarter. This year-over-year growth was driven by double-digit sales increases in
automotive and wireless applications. Wireless revenues grew over 40% compared to the year-ago
quarter. Sequentially, net revenues declined 1.1% from the $2,389&nbsp;million reported in the prior
quarter. Sequential sales performance was driven by growth in automotive and digital consumer
applications. In addition wireless application revenues, while lower sequentially, experienced less
seasonality than originally expected.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Gross profit was $837&nbsp;million for the 2006 first quarter, an increase of $152&nbsp;million from $685
million in last year&#146;s first quarter. Gross margin was 35.4% in the first quarter, an increase of
2.5&nbsp;percentage points from 32.9% in last year&#146;s first quarter. On a sequential basis, gross profit
and gross margin decreased from the fourth quarter levels of $872&nbsp;million and 36.5%, respectively, largely
reflecting seasonal factors.

coming in at the top end of our objectives. The Company&#146;s
sequential sales performance benefited from growth in digital consumer and automotive as well as stronger wireless
results than we initially expected. Furthermore, year-over-year ST grew revenues on a double-digit
basis, which we believe is a good indicator that 2006 will be a year of market- share gains for the
Company.</B></DIV>

expect to introduce major new products for our key platforms in each quarter of the year. We are
already seeing the first benefits of our new digital consumer offerings and, looking ahead, we plan
to begin shipping our Nomadik multimedia processor to our first wireless customer in the second
quarter. We expect to finish 2006 with a much stronger product portfolio, which has important

single-digit growth compared to 2005, a healthy level that will allow for a continuing expansion of
our industry. For ST, we continue to see strong order flow. As a result we expect sequential sales
growth in the range of 2% to 8%. Additionally, we expect to see sequential improvement in our gross
margin, although some of our progress will not be visible in our reported gross margin figure in
the second quarter, largely reflecting the final period of 6-inch manufacturing inefficiencies as
we phase out three fab lines. Therefore, we believe it is appropriate to set a gross margin
objective of about 35.8% plus or minus 100 basis points for the second quarter.&#148;</B>
