Atmel maXTouch continues to drive a number of touch devices from smartphones to 7-inch tablets and is now encouraged to power one of the hottest Android tablets in the market.

		<description><![CDATA[Atmel Corporation&#8217;s (ATML) top-line growth continues to accelerate, driven by solid growth in 8-bit and 32-bit micron rollers and touch-sensing products. There are a number of positives associated with Atmel&#8217;s ongoing restructuring. The program includes selling four noncore wafer fabrication operations, consolidating or eliminating fourteen product lines and reducing the workforce by nearly 35%. We expect meaningful results from these actions later this year. Atmel has a growing microcontrollers business that should contribute to the company&#8217;s top-line growth going forward. In anticipation of strong results in 2010, we raise our estimates and reiterate our Outperform rating on the stock.

		<description><![CDATA[Atmel Corporation (ATML) reported revenues of $343.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, up 8% sequentially and up 3% year over year and beats management’s expectations.

		<description><![CDATA[Atmel Corp.’s (ATML) fiscal third-quarter revenues stood at $317.7 million, up 12% sequentially but down 21% year over year. The sequential growth was broad based. In particular, sales of microcontrollers grew 18% sequentially. Gross margin declined to 31.1% from 32.3% in the previous quarter and 39.5% for the year-ago quarter, primarily due to a reduction in factory utilization at the two wafer fabrication facilities. Loss per share of one cent was better than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 2 cents . During the quarter, the company generated $59.4 million of cash from operating activities. Atmel ended the quarter with cash and equivalents of $446.2 million, an increase of $26.8 million from the end of the prior quarter. Inventories decreased by $27 million to $190.8 million.
