Item 2.02 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein is financial information for Amkor Technology, Inc. for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and forward-looking statements relating to 2005 and the first quarter of 2005 as presented in a press release of February 8, 2005. The information in this Form 8-K and the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

Exhibit 99.1 discloses certain financial measures, such as free cash flows, which are considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We believe free cash flow to be relevant and useful information to our investors in assessing our financial operating results as this measure is used by our management in evaluating our liquidity, our ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute, or superior to, cash flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The non-GAAP measures included in our press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure as is required under SEC rules regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures.

99.1 Text of Press Release dated February 8, 2005.

Amkor Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2004 Results

CHANDLER, Ariz., February 8, 2005 — Amkor Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMKR) reported fourth quarter sales of $453 million, down 8% from the third quarter of 2004 and down 1% from the fourth quarter of 2003. Amkor’s fourth quarter net loss was $36 million, or ($0.21) per share, compared with net income of $23 million, or $0.13 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2003. Amkor’s fourth quarter 2003 net income included a $7 million gain on the sale of a marketable security partially offset by $5 million in debt retirement costs associated with the repurchase of convertible notes.

For the full year 2004, Amkor’s sales were $1.9 billion, up 19% over the full year 2003. For 2004, Amkor’s loss from continuing operations was $38 million or ($.21) per share, compared with a loss from continuing operations for the year 2003 of $52 million or ($.31) per share. In 2003, Amkor recognized a gain from discontinued operations of $55 million or $.32 per share.

“During 2004 we undertook several strategic initiatives designed to extend our technology leadership, augment our product and service offering, improve our competitiveness and strengthen our customer relationships,” said James Kim, Amkor’s chairman and chief executive officer. “These initiatives included a realignment of our management team; a broad expansion of our operational footprint, including the acquisition of a new factory in Taiwan; an increased focus on flip chip and test; expansion of our design and development activities; creation of a long-term supply agreement with IBM; the acquisition of IBM’s Singapore test operation; and the acquisition of Unitive.”

“During the course of 2004 we invested more than $600 million to support our existing and future customers through these initiatives,” said Kim. “Our goal is to ensure that Amkor is properly positioned to take advantage of growth opportunities arising not only from the pending industry recovery, but over the long term as well. These initiatives constrained cash flow and negatively impacted profitability during 2004, and the short term costs associated with these initiatives have been further impacted by weakening business conditions in the semiconductor industry. Nonetheless, we believe this strategy represents a strong platform for enhancing shareholder value over the long term.”

“Our collaboration with IBM and acquisition of Unitive jointly create a foundation for growth,” said John Boruch, Amkor’s president and chief operating officer. “Under the IBM supply agreement, Amkor should supply a substantial majority of the IC assembly and test outsourced by IBM through 2010. The test portion of this relationship started last year when we acquired IBM’s Singapore test operation. We have made excellent progress with this new test center and are in the process of building a critical mass of test assets to support IBM as well as third party customers who recognize the value of a Singapore test location.”

 

“The assembly portion under the IBM agreement is expected to build over the next several quarters as IBM transitions business to Amkor from other outsourced assembly and test companies,” said Boruch. “The incremental IBM business in Q1 will not materially offset what will otherwise be a seasonally weak first quarter.”

“Unitive’s leading technology for electroplated wafer bumping and die level processing will help Amkor address exciting growth opportunities in Flip Chip and Wafer Level Packaging — two of the fastest growing markets in our industry,” said Boruch. “Over the past several months we have seen a significant increase in customer interest for wafer level packaging solutions. As the year progresses we will likely need to expand our WLP capacity, not only at Unitive in North Carolina, but also in one of our Asian factories.”

“We are also seeing strong interest in our ability to provide turnkey flip chip solutions - including bump, probe, assembly and final test – to IC suppliers for the graphics, chip set and video game console industries,” said Boruch. “During 2005 we will expand Unitive’s 12 inch wafer bumping line in Taiwan and build operational scale in probe, assembly and final test in our new T3 factory, which is co-located with Unitive in Hsinchu Taiwan.”

“Fourth quarter revenue, gross margin and net loss were all within our guidance range,” said Ken Joyce, Amkor’s chief financial officer. “Gross margin fell to 16% from 18% in the third quarter, reflecting the combined impact of lower quarterly revenue and increased factory operating costs in connection with our expansion initiatives. Near term, we expect continued pressure on gross margin, reflecting the combined impact of lower asset utilization, competitive pricing actions, and absorption of costs associated with our recent acquisitions.”

“Fourth quarter SG&A expenses were $55 million. Third quarter SG&A expenses were $53 million and reflected the reversal of $2.4 million in employee bonus compensation that was accrued in the first half of 2004,” said Joyce.

Legal expenses (which are included in SG&A Expenses) related to the mold compound litigation and Amkor’s patent infringement lawsuit against Carsem declined to $5 million in the fourth quarter from $8 million in the third quarter. The lower level of legal expenses this quarter was offset by higher costs in connection with our factory expansion program and increased corporate overhead.

In December 2004 we reported a favorable verdict in the mold compound litigation when the jury in the Philips trial determined that Amkor had no liability under Philips’ earlier settlement with Maxtor. Following this favorable verdict, in the fourth quarter we reversed a reserve of $1.5 million that was provided in the first quarter related to a proposed settlement of this lawsuit. In the Carsem case, following an unfavorable Initial Determination by the International Trade Commission Administrative Law Judge in November 2004 we filed petition for a full ITC review. On February 3 we announced that the ITC has ordered a full review of the Initial Determination, and we expect the Commission to complete its investigation by March 31, 2005.

“Fourth quarter capital expenditures totaled $38 million and were focused on test and flip chip,” said Joyce. “We are currently budgeting capital expenditures of $50 million for the first quarter of 2005 as we continue to expand our capabilities in flip chip, wafer level packaging and test.”

“Our liquidity improved during the fourth quarter, as we entered into a $300 million second lien term loan to provide Amkor with additional liquidity during the current semiconductor industry downturn. This loan has a single bullet payment due October 27, 2010,” said Joyce.

In connection with recent tax law changes, during the fourth quarter we realigned our corporate tax structure and repatriated approximately $172 million in earnings of foreign operations, which were offset by utilization of $172 million of our U.S. net operating loss carryforwards. At December 31, 2004 Amkor had U.S. net operating losses available for carryforward totaling $271 million expiring through 2024. Additionally, at December 31, 2004, we had $71 million of non-U.S. operating losses available for carryforward, expiring through 2013.

Selected operating data for the fourth quarter of 2004 is included in a section before the financial tables.

Business outlook
Our customers remain cautious about end-market demand and are exercising tight control over inventory. The high degree of uncertainty in the semiconductor sector is reflected by continued weakness in our customers’ forecasts going into what is typically a seasonally down first quarter.

On the basis of current customer forecasts, we have the following expectations for the first quarter of 2005:
• | Revenue in the range of 8% to 12% below the fourth quarter of 2004. |
• | Gross margin in the range of 10% to 12%. | | |
• | Net loss in the range of $0.34 to $0.40 per share. | | |
Amkor will conduct a conference call on February 8, 2005 at 5:00 p.m. eastern time. The call can be accessed by dialing 303-205-2130 or by visiting the investor relations page of our web site: www.amkor.com or CCBN’s website, www.companyboardroom.com. An archive of the webcast can be accessed through the same links and will be available until our next quarterly earnings conference call. An audio replay of the call will be available for 48 hours following the conference call by dialing 303-590-3000 passcode: 11015635#.
