ON Semiconductor Reports Third Quarter 2006 Results

Record Quarterly Net Income and Earnings per Share

PHOENIX, Ariz. – Oct. 26, 2006 – ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ: ONNN) today announced that total revenues in the third quarter of 2006 were $420.9 million, an increase of approximately 12 percent from the second quarter of 2006. Total revenues during the quarter included approximately $372.2 million of product revenues and approximately $48.7 million of manufacturing services revenue. During the third quarter of 2006, the company reported net income of $76.8 million, or $0.23 per share on a fully diluted basis. Third quarter 2006 results include approximately $2.9 million associated with stock based compensation expense primarily due to our adoption of FAS 123(R) Share Based Payment. During the second quarter of 2006, the company reported net income of $67.5 million, or $0.19 per share on a fully diluted basis, which included approximately $3.3 million of restructuring, asset impairments and other charges. Second quarter 2006 results included approximately $2.4 million associated with stock based compensation expense.

On a mix-adjusted basis, average selling prices in the third quarter of 2006 were approximately flat with the second quarter of 2006. The company’s gross margin in the third quarter was 38.1 percent, as anticipated, a decrease of approximately 270 basis points as compared to the second quarter of 2006 primarily due to an increase in lower margin manufacturing services revenue. Gross margins for product revenue were approximately 40.0 percent during the third quarter of 2006 compared to 41.6 percent during the second quarter of 2006.

EBITDA for the third quarter of 2006 was $106.3 million. EBITDA for the second quarter of 2006 was $96.8 million, which included approximately $3.3 million of restructuring, asset impairments and other charges. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the company’s net income and net cash provided by operating activities prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP is set forth in the attached schedule.

“ON Semiconductor had another quarter of strong revenue growth driven by our portfolio of analog and power products targeted towards the Computing, Consumer and Wireless end-markets as well as an increase in our manufacturing services revenue” said Keith Jackson, ON Semiconductor president and CEO. “The company grew net income for the seventh consecutive quarter to a record level of $76.8 million in the third quarter of 2006 and continues to deliver strong gross margin and cash flow from operations. During the third quarter, we used cash on hand to prepay approximately $60 million of our senior secured credit facility reducing our debt levels to a record low. We intend to continue paying down our debt with free cash flow from operations, consistent with our long-term financial strategy.”

FOURTH QUARTER 2006 OUTLOOK

“Based upon product booking trends, backlog levels, anticipated manufacturing services revenue and estimated turns levels, we anticipate that total revenues will be approximately $390 to $400 million in the fourth quarter of 2006,” Jackson said. “We also anticipate that approximately $30 to $35 million of our total revenues will come from manufacturing services revenue. Backlog levels at the beginning of the fourth quarter were down from backlog levels at the beginning of the third quarter of 2006, and represented over 90 percent of our anticipated fourth quarter 2006 revenues. We expect that average selling prices for the fourth quarter of 2006 will be down approximately one percent sequentially. We expect our product gross margin to range from 38 to 39 percent and expect our manufacturing services gross margin to be approximately break-even in the fourth quarter of 2006. We currently expect our stock based compensation in accordance with FAS No. 123 (R) to be approximately $3 million in the fourth quarter of 2006.”

TELECONFERENCE

ON Semiconductor will hold a conference call for the financial community at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time (ET) today to discuss the third quarter 2006 results. The company will provide a real-time audio broadcast of the teleconference on the Investor Relations page of its website at http://www.onsemi.com. The webcast will be available for approximately 30 days following the conference call.

* EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, interest income, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense. While EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an indicator of operating performance or an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, we believe this measure is useful to investors to assess our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. This calculation may differ in method of calculation from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The table above sets forth our EBITDA with a reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure under generally accepted accounting principles.
