·  GAAP EPS from Continuing Operations Increased 11% to $0.20

Singapore, July 25, 2012 — Flextronics (NASDAQ: FLEX) today announced results for its first quarter ended June 29, 2012 as follows:

(1)     An explanation and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures is presented in Schedule II attached to this press release.

First Quarter Results

Net sales for the first quarter ended June 29, 2012 amounted to $6.0 billion, adjusted operating income was $177 million and adjusted operating margins increased 30 basis points to 3.0% during the current quarter compared to the same quarter last year.  Adjusted net income from continuing operations for the first quarter ended June 29, 2012 was $156 million and adjusted EPS from continuing operations increased 10% year-over-year to $0.23 and GAAP EPS from continuing operations was up 11% year-over-year.

“Despite the challenging economic environment, we achieved our targeted operating margin and our adjusted EPS improved 10% compared to the same quarter last year. We have accomplished a transformation of our business to our desired portfolio model, which will lead to further margin expansion over the course of fiscal year 2013,” said Mike McNamara, CEO of Flextronics.

“As a result of our business transformation, our portfolio will improve our earnings predictability, generate higher margins and increase free cash flow going forward,” said Paul Read, CFO of Flextronics.  “We repurchased another 20.4 million shares during the quarter which has resulted in the reduction of our diluted weighted average shares outstanding by 9% or 72 million shares from a year ago, underscoring our confidence in our cash flow generation and future business performance,” Read added.

Guidance

For the second quarter ending September 28, 2012, revenue is expected to be in the range of $5.9 billion to $6.3 billion.  Adjusted EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.21 to $0.25 per share.

GAAP earnings per share are expected to be lower than the guidance provided herein by approximately $0.03 per diluted share for quarterly intangible amortization and stock-based compensation expense.

A conference call hosted by Flextronics’s management will be held today at 2:00 PM (PT) / 5:00 PM (ET) to discuss the Company’s financial results for the first quarter ended June 29, 2012.

SCHEDULE IV

FLEXTRONICS INTERNATIONAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO SCHEDULES I, II, & III

(1)  To supplement Flextronics’s unaudited selected financial data presented on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share.  These supplemental measures exclude stock-based compensation expense, intangible amortization, the related tax effects and non-recurring settlements of tax contingencies.  These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.  We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Flextronics’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate Flextronics’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.  The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures.  We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of Company performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of the Company’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to the Company’s ongoing operational performance.  We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, for calculating return on investment, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors.  In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures.  Also, when evaluating potential acquisitions, we exclude certain of the items described below from consideration of the target’s performance and valuation.  Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results.  We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

·                  the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s on-going operating results;

·                  the ability to better identify trends in the Company’s underlying business and perform related trend analyses;

·                  a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business; and

·                  an easier way to compare the Company’s operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of each of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding each of these individual items in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of stock options and unvested restricted share unit awards granted to employees and assumed in business acquisitions.  The Company believes that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of its operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types.  In addition, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on its operating results.

Intangible amortization consists of non-cash charges that can be impacted by the timing and magnitude of acquisitions.  The Company considers its operating results without these charges when evaluating its ongoing performance and forecasting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.  The Company believes that the assessment of its operations excluding these costs is relevant to its assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of its competitors.

Adjustment for taxes relates to the tax effects of the various adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures in order to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income and certain adjustments related to non-recurring settlements of tax contingencies.

(2) During the three month period ended June 29, 2012, the Company completed the sale of certain assets of its Vista Point Technologies (“VPT”) camera modules business, including intellectual property and the China-based manufacturing operations.  Total proceeds received from the sale of this business were $16.5 million and the Company recognized a loss on sale of $4.7 million, which is in included in loss on sale of business and other expenses (income), net in the results from discontinued operations during the period.

The divestiture of the VPT camera modules business qualifies as discontinued operations, and accordingly, the Company has recast prior period results from continuing operations and reported the results of operations of this business in discontinued operations within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The results from discontinued operations were as follows:
