Actions Appeals International Trade Commission’s Decision

ZHUHAI, China, January 8, 2007 -- Actions Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: ACTS), one of China's leading fabless semiconductor companies, today announced that on January 4, 2007 the company filed a Notice of Appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “CAFC”) to review the September 15, 2006 decision of the United States International Trade Commission in the Matter of Audio Processing Circuits, and Products Containing Same, Investigation no. 337-TA-538.

Actions continues to believe that all of its products do not infringe any of its competitors’ patents. Actions looks forward to presenting its position and is hopeful that its appeal will be successful.

“In our opinion, SigmaTel appears to be using frequent litigation as a marketing tool in the face of their declining market share. We intend to respond decisively in both the courts and the marketplace. As previously announced, we have countersued SigmaTel in China, we are rolling out new products in the U.S., and we are aggressively expanding our distribution network to gain additional market share,” stated Mr. Nan-Horng Yeh, Chief Executive Officer of Actions Semiconductor. “Above all, we believe that the steps we are taking best serve the interests of our customers, especially in the U.S., where consumers want high value products at reasonable pricing,” concluded Mr. Yeh.
