Emulex 8Gb/s HBAs Selected for IBM Power Servers

Combined Technology Offers Higher I/O Bandwidth and Performance to Meet the Growing User Demand for Higher- Speed Applications in the Data Center

COSTA MESA, Calif., December 17, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that IBM has selected Emulex LightPulse® 8Gb/s Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) for the new IBM Power Systems servers. By leveraging Emulex HBAs, IBM is able to provide customers with the increased I/O bandwidth, manageability and CPU efficiency required to support the increased deployment of virtualized servers and high transaction databases.

"Once again, Emulex and IBM have teamed up to bring a high performance, reliable SAN connectivity solution to market - one that end users can confidently use to overcome the bandwidth challenges associated with next-generation data centers," said Taufik Ma, vice president of product marketing, Emulex. "Further, in using Emulex 8Gb/s HBAs as part of the Power server family, IBM customers will experience higher performance and throughput within their server environments, as well as greater flexibility and scalability for SAN connectivity management, which will ultimately help their organizations save time and money."

Offering industry-standard N-Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) support, Emulex's LPe12000 family of 8Gb/s HBAs "virtualize" SAN connections so that each virtual machine has independent access to its own protected storage. Emulex Virtual HBA technology, when combined with the IBM Power platform, PowerVMTM virtualization technology and the IBM AIX® operating system, enables customers to leverage SAN management tools and best practices, such as fabric zoning and LUN mapping/masking.

"Today's news underscores IBM Power Systems ongoing commitment to providing customers with servers that have high availability and that are virtualization ready, so that IT managers can keep up with the never-ending demand for higher-speed channel and networking applications in the data center," said Kelvin Hawkins, vice president, Power Systems development at IBM. "IBM and Emulex have been working together for over ten years to deliver industry- leading solutions that meet our customers' needs."

In July, Emulex announced that IBM selected the 8Gb/s HBAs for IBM System x servers. IBM's selection was driven by the performance attributes of Emulex's new 8Gb/s HBA, with support for Message-Signaled Interrupts eXtended (MSI-X), an interrupt handling mechanism ideal for both virtualization and transaction-intensive environments.

Emulex has the largest installed base of Fibre Channel HBAs in IBM SANs worldwide. For more information on the Emulex's partnership and joint work with IBM visit: http://www.emulex.com/ibm/index.jsp.

Emulex Named One of the 20 Most Strategic Storage Vendors According to Everything Channel

Emulex Selected by Storage Integrators as a Strategic Storage Partner for Driving FCoE Adoption

COSTA MESA, Calif., December 4, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that it was named one of the 20 most strategic storage vendors by Everything Channel's CRN.

"We are excited to enter 2009 with such strong FCoE momentum and remain committed to bringing innovative next-generation solutions to the channel so that, in turn, our partners can provide end users with the tools they need to build high performance, easy-to- use and cost efficient storage systems."

Emulex's commitment to the channel and continued growth has received numerous industry accolades over the last year from Everything Channel. Most recently, Emulex was certified as a Silver 5-Star Winner in the VARBusiness 2008 Partner Program Guide, which acknowledges the commitment and strength of a vendor's partner program for its channel resellers, IT integrators and technology consultants.

Emulex Delivers FCoE CNAs for Sun Microsystems' COMSTAR Project

Fibre Channel and FCoE Adapters Enable OpenSolaris Users and Vendors to Develop and Deploy New Sun Storage Appliance Solutions within Converged Networks

COSTA MESA, Calif., November 18, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that it will offer Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBA) and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Converged Network Adapters (CNAs) for use with OpenSolaris' Common Multiprotocol SCSI Target (COMSTAR), thereby providing end-to-end Fibre Channel and FCoE support within OpenSolaris environments. Emulex's LightPulse® HBAs and CNAs enable Sun Microsystems' OpenSolaris customers to evaluate and deploy storage appliances, while experiencing the benefits of network convergence, such as increased server efficiency, and lower power and cooling costs.

"The delivery of Converged Network Adapters for Sun's COMSTAR is yet another proof point to Emulex's leadership in driving open source solutions and encouraging data center innovation," said Scott McIntyre, vice president of product marketing, Emulex Corporation. "Using Emulex HBAs and CNAs with COMSTAR provides users and partners with the flexibility to develop and deploy COMSTAR-based appliances within existing infrastructures and helping provide investment protection with next-generation data center solutions."

Emulex's FCoE CNAs can simplify networking infrastructure by consolidating Fibre Channel and networking traffic over a 10Gb/s Enhanced Ethernet network, looking to reduce overall infrastructure costs and lower overall power and cooling costs. Used within Sun Microsystems' single-driver Solaris environment, Emulex adapters ensure the best quality and the shortest learning curve for enterprise users looking to deploy end-to-end FCoE in either initiator servers or target server storage appliances. They also use the same driver code as the widely-qualified, Fibre Channel-aware Leadville initiator driver, which provides a more efficient and easy-to-manage interface for Solaris systems.

"Sun Microsystems has always been at the forefront of storage application development and partners, like Emulex, play a key role in making that possible," said Michael Wojnar, product line manager, Networking Group, Sun Microsystems. "By using Emulex's adapters with the COMSTAR software framework, Solaris and OpenSolaris users can now evaluate and deploy storage appliance solutions within the context of emerging converged networks and experience enterprise storage reliability, scalability and performance."

The Emulex COMSTAR driver is posted on the community site for Sun Microsystems' OpenSolaris™ project, an open source community and a place for collaboration and exchange around open source technologies.

Emulex is a longstanding Sun Microsystems partner, and an active participant and contributor to the OpenSolaris community. Emulex recently announced it was the first vendor to provide Virtual HBA technology for Solaris environments for use with logical domains (LDoms), containers and xVM user domains. Additionally, Emulex 8Gb/s HBAs have been selected by Sun Microsystems for SAN connectivity across Sun Fire™ Enterprise server families and Sun StorageTek™ storage solutions.

On a GAAP basis, Emulex expects gross margin of approximately 63% and diluted second quarter earnings per share of $0.09-$0.12 per diluted share. GAAP estimates reflect approximately $0.11 per diluted share in expected charges arising primarily from amortization of intangibles and stock-based compensation for the second quarter.

About Emulex

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information. To supplement the condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release or in the webcast to discuss the Company's financial results for the first fiscal quarter which may be accessed via the Company's website at www.emulex.com: (i) non-GAAP gross margin, (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses, (iii) non-GAAP operating income, (iv) non-GAAP net income, and (v) non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses and gains. As a general matter, the Company uses such non-GAAP financial measures in addition to and in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures to help analyze the performance of its core business, in connection with the preparation of annual budgets, and in measuring performance for some forms of compensation. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze the Company's historical results and in providing estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP measures, could result in confusion among analysts and others and a misplaced perception that the Company's results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.

These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's operations that, when viewed with the GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of the Company's results of operations and the factors and trends affecting the Company's business. However, these non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The non-GAAP disclosures and the non-GAAP adjustments, including the basis for excluding such adjustments and the impact on the Company's operations, are outlined below:

Non-GAAP gross margin. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) stock- based compensation, (iii) severance and associated costs, and (iv) impairment of intangible assets. At the time of an acquisition, the intangible assets are recorded at fair value and subsequently amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company believes that the amortization of intangibles does not constitute part of its core business because they generally represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and as such they are effectively part of transaction costs rather than ongoing costs of operating the Company's core business. In this regard, the Company notes that (1) once the intangibles are fully amortized, they will not be replaced with cash costs and therefore, the exclusion of these costs provides management and investors with better visibility into the actual costs required to generate revenues over time, and (2) although the Company sets the amortization expense based on useful life of the various assets at the time of the transaction, the Company cannot influence the timing and amount of the future amortization expense recognition once the lives are established. As a result, the Company believes that exclusion of these costs in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures provides management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies within its core business. Similarly, the Company believes that presentation of gross margin and other non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact to gross margin of stock-based compensation assists management and investors in evaluating the period over period performance of the Company's ongoing core business operations because the expenses are non-cash in nature and, although the size of the grants is within the Company's control, the amount of expense varies depending on factors such as short-term fluctuations in stock price and volatility which can be unrelated to the operational performance of the Company during the period in question and generally is outside the control of

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/09-q1.jsp (2 of 10) [2/12/2009 6:11:07 PM] Oct, 23 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2009 RESULTS management during the period in which the expense is recognized. Moreover, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors to understand the impact of the expensing of stock-based compensation to the Company's gross margin and other financial measures in comparison to both prior periods as well as to its competitors. The Company has incurred severance and certain related costs in connection with the change in employment status of certain employees including terminations resulting from elimination of certain positions. The Company believes that such costs are infrequent and non-recurring in nature and, as such, do not accurately reflect the costs of operation of the Company's core business. As a result, the Company believes that the exclusion of such severance and related costs from the calculation of non-GAAP gross margin gives management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs. Furthermore, with respect to the exclusion of charges relating to the impairment of intangible assets, the Company believes that presentation of a measure of non-GAAP gross margin that excludes such charges is useful to management and investors in evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations on a period-to-period basis and relative to the Company's competitors. In this regard, the Company notes that the impairment of intangible assets is infrequent in nature and is unrelated to the Company's core business.

The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP gross margin has economic substance because the excluded expenses do not represent continuing cash expenditures or, as described above, the Company has limited control over the timing and amount of the expenditures being discussed. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measure of gross margin is that it may not be comparable with the calculation of gross margin for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

Non-GAAP operating income. Non-GAAP operating income excludes the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) severance and associated costs, and (iv) impairment of intangible assets. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of operating income that excludes amortization of intangibles, stock- based compensation, severance and associated costs, and impairment of intangible assets is useful to management and investors for the same reasons as described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin.

The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP operating income has economic substance because the excluded expenses are either infrequent in nature or do not represent current cash expenditures. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measure of operating income is that it may not be comparable with the calculation of operating income for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

Non-GAAP operating expenses. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effects of (i) amortization of other intangibles, (ii) stock-based compensation, and (iii) severance and associated costs. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of operating expenses that excludes the amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, and severance and associated costs is useful to investors and the Company for the same reasons as described above with respect to non- GAAP operating income and non-GAAP gross margin.

The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP operating expenses has economic substance because the excluded expenses are either infrequent in nature or do not represent current cash expenditures. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measure of operating expenses is that it may not be comparable with the calculation of operating expenses for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share exclude the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) impairment of intangible assets, and (iv) severance and associated costs. In addition, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share reflect an adjustment of income tax expense associated with exclusion of the foregoing expense (income) items. The adjustment of income taxes is required in order to provide management and investors a more accurate assessment of the taxes that would have been payable on net income, as adjusted by exclusion of the effects of

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/09-q1.jsp (3 of 10) [2/12/2009 6:11:07 PM] Oct, 23 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2009 RESULTS the above listed items. The Company believes that presentation of measures of net income and diluted earnings per share that exclude these items is useful to management and investors for the reasons described above with respect to non- GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating income.

The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share has economic substance because the excluded expenses are infrequent in nature, are unlikely to be recurring and are variable in nature, or do not represent current cash expenditures. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measures of net income and diluted earnings per share is that they may not be comparable with the calculation of net income and diluted earnings per share for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: With the exception of historical information, the statements set forth above, including, without limitation, those contained in the discussion of "Business Outlook" above, and the reconciliation of forward-looking diluted earnings per share below, contain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or changes to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances. The Company wishes to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. In the past, the Company's results have been significantly impacted by a widespread slowdown in technology investment that pressured the storage networking market that is the mainstay of the Company's business. Recent disruptions in world credit and equity markets and the resulting economic uncertainty for our customers may result in a downturn in information technology spending that could adversely affect the Company's revenues and results of operations. As a result of this uncertainty, the Company is unable to predict with any accuracy what future results might be. Other factors affecting these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: slower than expected growth of the storage networking market or the failure of the Company's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate the Company's products into their systems; the Company's dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, or decrease or delays in orders by any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of the Company's or the Company's OEM customers' new or enhanced products; the variability in the level of the Company's backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of the Company's customers; the effects of terrorist activities, natural disasters and resulting political or economic instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for the Company's products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; possible transitions from board or box level to application specific computer chip solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher-end to lower-end mezzanine card products; a decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of the Company's products; delays in product development; the Company's reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; any inadequacy of the Company's intellectual property protection or the potential for third-party claims of infringement; the Company's ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; the Company's ability to benefit from research and development activities; the Company's dependence on international sales and internationally produced products; the effect of acquisitions; impairment charges; changes in tax rates or legislation; changes in accounting standards; and the potential effects of global warming and any resulting regulatory changes on our business.

Emulex CNAs Extend Industry-Leading Virtualization Capabilities and Support to FCoE Environments

COSTA MESA, Calif., September 15, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that the Emulex LightPulse® LP21000 family of Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Converged Network Adapters (CNAs) has been certified for VMware ESX. Emulex CNAs provide VMware customers with transparent network and storage connectivity for both physical and virtual environments, coupled with the ability to leverage existing management tools and processes associated with Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) already deployed.

"Emulex has long been a leader in developing and driving new storage technologies and standards such as N-Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) to fuel server virtualization adoption, and today's announcement is indicative of the continued trend towards convergence in the data center," said Taufik Ma, vice president of product marketing, Emulex. "VMware customers using Emulex CNAs within virtualized server environments will now be able to experience the same usability, management capabilities and best-in-class connectivity they expect from Emulex seamlessly within a unified network."

The Emulex LP21000 family of CNAs leverage eight generations of field-proven Fibre Channel technology, allowing companies to extend their Fibre Channel investments while deploying a next-generation unified fabric in their data centers under a common management platform. Recent third-party testing by the Enterprise Strategy Group revealed Emulex CNAs mirror the capabilities of Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs while reducing data center cabling and lowering operational costs. With a converged network utilizing FCoE, network traffic can be seamlessly transported over an Enhanced 10Gb/s Ethernet network, while reducing the number of ports, cards inside servers and cables by approximately 50 percent.

"Continued adoption of server virtualization is driving the need for simplified networking and fabric convergence. Emulex has been working with VMware to deliver enterprise-class interconnect solutions for these next-generation data centers, certified to operate with VMware virtualization," said Shekar Ayyar, vice president of infrastructure alliances at VMware. "Emulex CNAs, like its HBAs, are a great complement to the VMware platform, allowing customers to take full advantage of the server consolidation, robust manageability, and high availability of VMware virtualized environments."

Emulex CNAs also support Emulex's Virtual HBA technology with industry-standard NPIV, which allows customers to effectively "virtualize" SAN connections so that each virtual machine has independent access to its own protected storage. This provides several benefits, including the ability to track and chargeback the storage utilization at the virtual machine level using Emulex's HBAnyware® management suite.

"When Cisco introduced the Nexus 5000 10GE server access switch with support for FCoE, we also introduced an ecosystem of partners who supported the platform and the FCoE technology," said Ed Bugnion, CTO, Server Access and Virtualization Business Unit at Cisco. "With the certification of the Emulex LP21000 by VMware, this ecosystem has been extended to server virtualization, enhancing customers' ability to consolidate their data center resources."

"FCoE technologies, such as Emulex CNAs, can help provide a clear path for data center managers looking to converge multiple fabrics onto a single network in order to further streamline operations and lower infrastructure costs in virtualized server environments," said Barbara Robidoux, EMC Vice President, Storage Product Marketing. "The EMC E-Lab is working closely with Emulex to ensure that its CNAs are qualified and fully interoperable with EMC's leading networked storage systems so that data center managers will be able to seamlessly deploy new FCoE capabilities when they are ready."

At VMworld, September 15-18, 2008 in Las Vegas, Emulex will be demonstrating the seamless transition of virtual machines from an Emulex Fibre Channel HBA to an Emulex FCoE CNA using VMware VMotion in a unified network in its booth, #428.

Financial Results

Fourth quarter net revenues were $112.8 million, a decrease of 11% from the comparable quarter last year and a 12% decrease sequentially from the third quarter. Fourth quarter GAAP net loss was $50.4 million, or $0.61 per share compared to GAAP net income of $0.15 per diluted share reported in the year ago period and $0.19 per diluted share in the third quarter. Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter, which excludes amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, severance and associated charges, and tax charges associated with the Company's globalization initiatives, was $18.2 million, or $0.22 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share decreased 35% from the $0.34 per diluted share reported last year, and decreased 29% sequentially from $0.31 per diluted share reported in the third quarter. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are included in the accompanying financial data.

Full year fiscal 2008 net revenues were $488.3 million, a 4% increase over 2007 and representing the 10th consecutive year of revenue growth. Full year GAAP net loss was $7.1 million or $0.09 per share compared to GAAP net income of $29.4 million or $0.34 per diluted share in 2007. Non-GAAP net income was $95.0 million or $1.13 per diluted share compared to $100.8 million or $1.14 per diluted share in 2007.

In early August, the Board of Directors approved approximately $40 million of share repurchases in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, which is the remaining amount available under the existing 2006 Share Repurchase Plan. In addition, the Board has authorized a new plan of $100 million of share repurchases.

Jim McCluney, president and CEO commented, "While the fourth quarter revenue results were disappointing, key metrics including our gross margins, cash generation and spending management demonstrate our commitment to performance. We were also able to deliver our 10th consecutive year of top line revenue growth in 2008 driven by strong year-over-year growth of our server OEMs."

"As we enter 2009, we are accelerating our strategy of leveraging our strong financial model to take advantage of

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q4.jsp (1 of 11) [2/12/2009 6:12:29 PM] Aug 7, 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2008 RESULTS our opportunities to grow through diversification. In addition to adding depth to our product portfolio, we are focusing our internal investments in sales and marketing to closely align ourselves with our customers and partners in faster growing global markets for our existing solutions," concluded McCluney.

Business Outlook

Although actual results may vary depending on a variety of factors, many of which are outside the Company's control, Emulex is providing guidance for its first fiscal quarter ending September 28, 2008. Emulex is budgeting for first quarter fiscal 2009 total net revenues in the range of $108-$111 million. The Company expects non-GAAP gross margin will be approximately 67% and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share could amount to $0.18-$0.20 in the first quarter. On a GAAP basis, Emulex expects gross margin will be approximately 63% and diluted first quarter earnings per share of $0.00-$0.02. GAAP estimates reflect approximately $0.18 per diluted share in expected charges arising from amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, severance and associated costs, and charges associated with globalization initiatives for the first quarter.

About Emulex

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information. To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release or in the webcast to discuss the Company's financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter which may be accessed via the Company's website at www.emulex.com: (i) non-GAAP gross margin, (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses, (iii) non-GAAP operating income, (iv) non-GAAP net income, and (v) non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses and gains. As a general matter, the Company uses these non-GAAP measures in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Among other things, the Company uses such non- GAAP financial measures in addition to and in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures to help analyze the performance of its core business, in connection with the preparation of annual budgets, and in measuring performance for some forms of compensation. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze the Company's historical results and in providing estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP measures, could result in confusion among analysts and others and a misplaced perception that the Company's results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.

The non-GAAP disclosures and the non-GAAP adjustments, including the basis for excluding such adjustments and the impact on the Company's operations, are outlined below:

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q4.jsp (2 of 11) [2/12/2009 6:12:29 PM] Aug 7, 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2008 RESULTS to generate revenues over time, and (2) although the Company sets the amortization expense based on useful life of the various assets at the time of the transaction, the Company cannot influence the timing and amount of the future amortization expense recognition once the lives are established. As a result, the Company believes that exclusion of these costs in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures provides management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies within its core business. Similarly, the Company believes that presentation of gross margin and other non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact to gross margin of stock-based compensation expense assists management and investors in evaluating the period over period performance of the Company's ongoing core business operations because the expenses are non-cash in nature and, although the size of the grants is within the Company's control, the amount of expense varies depending on factors such as short-term fluctuations in stock price and volatility which can be unrelated to the operational performance of the Company during the period in question and generally is outside the control of management during the period in which the expense is recognized. Moreover, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors to understand the impact of the expensing of stock-based compensation to the Company's gross margin and other financial measures in comparison to both prior periods as well as to its competitors. Furthermore, with respect to the exclusion of charges relating to the impairment of intangible assets, the Company believes that presentation of a measure of non-GAAP gross margin that excludes such charges is useful to management and investors in evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations on a period-to-period basis and relative to the Company's competitors. In this regard, the Company notes that the impairment of intangible assets charges are infrequent in nature and are unrelated to the Company's core business.

The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP gross margin has economic substance because the excluded expenses do not represent continuing cash expenditures and, as described above, the Company has limited control over the timing and amount of the expenditures being discussed. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measure of gross margin is that it may not be comparable with the calculation of gross margin for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

Non-GAAP operating income. Non-GAAP operating income excludes the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development, (iii) stock-based compensation, (iv) the mark-up to fair value of inventory acquired in the Sierra Logic acquisition and subsequently sold, (v) severance and associated costs, and (vi) impairment of intangible assets. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of operating income that excludes amortization of intangibles, the mark-up on Sierra Logic inventory acquired, stock-based compensation expense, severance and associated costs for former executives, and impairment of intangible assets is useful to management and investors for the same reasons as described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin. In-process research and development is an expense relating to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, in-process research and development costs of the acquired entity are expensed. As is the case with respect to the amortization of intangibles, the Company believes that such in-process research and development expenses do not constitute part of its core business because they generally represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value or develop technology prior to acquisition and as such they are part of transaction costs rather than ongoing costs of operating the Company's core business. In this regard, the Company notes that (1) once in-process research and development is expensed, it generally will not be replaced with cash costs and therefore, the exclusion of these costs provides management and investors with better visibility into the actual costs required to generate revenues over time, and (2) the Company cannot influence the amount of in-process research and development expenses incurred. As a result, the Company believes that exclusion of in-process research and development expenses in presenting non-GAAP operating income gives management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies within its core business. The Company has incurred severance and certain related costs in connection with the change in employment status of certain employees including terminations resulting from elimination of certain positions. The Company believes that such costs are infrequent and non-recurring in nature and, as such, do not accurately reflect the costs of operation of the Company's core business. As a result, the Company believes that the exclusion of such severance and related costs gives management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs.

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q4.jsp (3 of 11) [2/12/2009 6:12:29 PM] Aug 7, 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2008 RESULTS of operating income for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

Non-GAAP operating expenses. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effects of (i) amortization of other intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development, (iii) stock-based compensation, (iv) severance and associated costs, and (v) impairment of other intangible assets. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of operating expenses that excludes the amortization of intangibles, in-process research and development expenses, stock-based compensation expense, severance and associated costs, and impairment of other intangible assets is useful to investors and the Company for the same reasons as described above with respect to non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP gross margin.

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share exclude the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development, (iii) stock- based compensation, (iv) the mark-up to fair value of inventory acquired in the Sierra Logic acquisition and subsequently sold, (v) net recovery of a previous impairment of a strategic investment and associated note, (vi) impairment of other intangible assets, (vii) net charge related to an impairment of a strategic investment, (viii) severance and associated costs, and (ix) charges reflecting the U.S. tax impact associated with the implementation of our recent globalization initiatives. In addition, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share reflect an adjustment of income tax expense associated with exclusion of the foregoing expense (income) items. The adjustment of income taxes is required in order to provide management and investors a more accurate assessment of the taxes that would have been payable on net income, as adjusted by exclusion of the effects of the above listed items. The Company believes that presentation of measures of net income and diluted earnings per share that exclude these items is useful to management and investors for the reasons described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating income. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of net income and diluted earnings per share that excludes the net recovery related to a previous impairment of strategic investment and associated note, the net charge related to an impairment of a strategic investment, as well as the tax impact associated with the Company's recent globalization initiatives, is useful to management and investors in evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations on a period-to-period basis and relative to the Company's competitors. In this regard, the Company notes that recoveries and charges of this type are infrequent in nature and are unrelated to ongoing operation of the Company's core business.

The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share has economic substance because the excluded expenses are infrequent in nature, are unlikely to be recurring and are variable in nature, or, other than with respect to charges relating to the tax impact associated with the Company's globalization initiatives, do not represent current cash expenditures. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measures of net income and diluted earnings per share is that they may not be comparable with the calculation of net income and diluted earnings per share for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

"Safe Harbor'" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: With the exception of historical information, the statements set forth above, including, without limitation, those contained in the discussion of "Business Outlook" above, and the reconciliation of forward-looking diluted earnings per share below, contain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or changes to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances. The Company wishes to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q4.jsp (4 of 11) [2/12/2009 6:12:29 PM] Aug 7, 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2008 RESULTS good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. In the past, the Company's results have been significantly impacted by a widespread slowdown in technology investment that pressured the storage networking market that is the mainstay of the Company's business. A downturn in information technology spending could adversely affect the Company's revenues and results of operations. As a result of this uncertainty, the Company is unable to predict with any accuracy what future results might be. Other factors affecting these forward- looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: slower than expected growth of the storage networking market or the failure of the Company's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate the Company's products into their systems; the Company's dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, or decrease or delays in orders by, any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of the Company's or the Company's OEM customers' new or enhanced products; the variability in the level of the Company's backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of the Company's customers; the effects of terrorist activities, natural disasters and resulting political or economic instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for the Company's products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; possible transitions from board or box level to application specific computer chip solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher- end to lower-end mezzanine card products; a decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of the Company's products; delays in product development; the Company's reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; any inadequacy of the Company's intellectual property protection or the potential for third-party claims of infringement; the Company's ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; the Company's ability to benefit from research and development activities; the Company's dependence on international sales and internationally produced products; the effect of acquisitions; impairment charges; changes in tax rates or legislation; changes in accounting standards; and the potential effects of global warming and any resulting regulatory changes on our business. These and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its recent filings on Forms 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q, under the caption "Risk Factors."

Enterprise Strategy Group Lab Review Validates the Seamless Integration of Emulex FCoE Converged Network Adapters into Existing Storage Networks

Emulex CNAs Leverage Proven Fibre Channel Technology, Common Drivers and Management Tools

COSTA MESA, Calif., August 4, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced the results of an Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) Lab Validation, which evaluated the Emulex LightPulse® LP21000 family of converged network adapters (CNAs) within a virtualized server environment. The lab results confirm that Emulex Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)-based CNAs provide transparent network and storage connectivity for physical and virtual servers, while leveraging existing management tools and processes as traditional Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs).

"The results of the ESG Lab Validation offer further proof that Emulex CNAs reduce data center complexity and lower operational costs with a unified fabric," said Joe Gervais, senior director of product marketing, Emulex. "The Emulex LP21000 family of CNAs leverages eight generations of field-proven Fibre Channel technology, allowing companies to extend their Fibre Channel investments, while deploying a next generation unified fabric in their data centers under a common management platform. In short, the LightPulse family of CNAs delivers all the functionality that our OEM partners rely on and expect from an industry leader like Emulex."

ESG tested Emulex CNAs within a VMware ESX 3.5 server environment running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 guests. Overall, the results showed that Emulex CNAs mirror the capabilities of Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs and deliver the value behind FCoE. A converged network, utilizing FCoE, allows traffic to be seamlessly transported over an Enhanced 10Gb/s Ethernet network with fewer ports, fewer cards inside servers and fewer cables, while providing investment protection for existing Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs).

"Recent research conducted by ESG indicates that data growth, risk mitigation, complexity, cost and performance are the top concerns of today's enterprises," said Tony Palmer, Lab Engineer, Enterprise Strategy Group. "FCoE addresses many of these issues and our testing confirmed that Emulex CNAs easily drop into existing data center environments using the same qualified and proven drivers, management tools and techniques that Emulex's Fibre Channel HBAs have used for over ten years. "

Other key findings include:

● Reduced Network Complexity: ESG found that because Emulex CNAs share a common driver stack, field- proven HBAnyware management tools and N-Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) support, customers will see a reduction in network complexity and total cost of ownership, as well as overall data center consolidation benefits. ● Simplified Configuration and Use: In an ease-of-use and configuration test, ESG found that Emulex CNAs are recognized by both VMware and Windows as a Fibre Channel HBA and a 10Gb/s Ethernet adapter, without any special software. The configuration is exactly the same as with traditional Fibre Channel adapters and Ethernet and network interface cards (NICs). A customer currently evaluating Emulex CNAs commented that the installation was very simple as the LP21000 "looked just like any HBA" in their environment and was easily installed using the same driver package used for standard Fibre HBAs. Even more telling was the statement: "In fact, I didn't even have to read the manual." ● Dependable Performance: The review also demonstrated that virtual machine migration using Emulex CNAs takes just moments, without interrupting ongoing activities, even with data-intensive applications, such as live streaming video. A migration between servers took just seconds to accomplish without interruption to ongoing activity. In addition, Emulex CNAs support NPIV, allowing multiple Fibre Channel initiators to occupy the same physical port, simplifying adapter migration. During customer testing using both Emulex CNAs and HBAs, performance was on par across both, with a negligible difference in latency.

Emulex First to Provide Virtual HBA Technology for Solaris Environments

Customers Benefit from Advanced Server Virtualization Support and Scalability

COSTA MESA, Calif., July 21, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that its LightPulse® Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs), available from Sun as the Sun StorageTek™ Enterprise Class 4Gb/s PCI Express HBA, now offer Virtual HBA technology within Solaris™ 10 Operating System (OS) environments. Enhanced capabilities such as virtual port management, available via Emulex's next generation HBAnyware management suite, are designed to enhance the overall functionality of Solaris™ Containers.

"Once again, Emulex is demonstrating leadership in the area of virtualization by providing enhanced capabilities for virtualized servers within Solaris environments," said Scott McIntyre, vice president of customer marketing, Emulex Corp. "Emulex pioneered Virtual HBA technology and is the only HBA vendor to support Sun's Solaris Containers for virtualized server environments."

Emulex's family of 4Gb/s and 8Gb/s HBAs support Virtual HBA technology, which allows users to effectively virtualize the HBA functionality so each virtual machine running on a server can independently access its own protected storage. Coupled with Solaris Containers, Emulex Virtual HBA technology which leverages the NPIV standard, also allows customers to maintain usage of SAN management tools and best practices, such as fabric zoning and LUN mapping/masking.

"Working with Emulex to support its Virtual HBA technology provides Solaris customers with a robust virtualized server solution that delivers the most enhanced capabilities available today," said Michael Wojnar, Networking Product Line Marketing Manager, Sun Microsystems. "This collaboration is critical because of the high correlation between virtualized servers and networked storage, and ensures that our customers deploying Solaris Containers now have a superior solution."

Server virtualization and blade server deployments continue to be a major driver for increased Fibre Channel SAN adoption. Leveraging Emulex HBAs with its next generation management suite, HBAnyware, provides customers with enhanced virtualization features, such as virtual HBA management across all major operating system platforms including Microsoft, VMware, Linux/Xen and Solaris. Further, customers may now leverage the benefits of NPIV management functionality within a centralized single console. Online boot from SAN and enhanced diagnostics features also enable unmatched scalability and efficient management capabilities.

"We looked at the capability of the Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs and management tools and saw features that were not available from other suppliers," says Steven Ham, Senior Windows System Administrator at Home Interiors & Gifts, Inc. "With the HBA management tools, we get discovery and dynamic configuration capabilities that would otherwise require additional investment in tools running on other SAN components."

In an effort to educate customers and channel partners on Emulex's connectivity solutions and enhanced HBAnyware management suite functionality, Emulex is offering a series of whitepapers and webinars. For details, visit: http://www.emulex.com/solutions/san/index.jsp.

EMULEX ANNOUNCES PRELIMINARY FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS

COSTA MESA, Calif., July 10, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that it expects to report revenues of approximately $111-$113 million for the fourth fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2008, compared to the range of $118- $123 million previously projected in April 2008 during the Company's third quarter conference call. The Company expects non-GAAP earnings per share for its fourth fiscal quarter to be approximately $0.19-$0.20 per diluted share, compared to the prior projection of $0.24-$0.27 per diluted share. On a GAAP basis, excluding any charges related to the recently implemented globalization initiatives, the Company expects to report earnings of approximately $0.08-$0.09 per diluted share compared to the prior projection of $0.13-$0.16 per diluted share. Although the exact amount of the charges related to the globalization initiatives cannot be determined at this time, such charges may result in an after tax loss for the quarter on a GAAP basis.

Preliminary Results:

● Host Server Products Revenues of $83-$84 Million ● Embedded Storage Products Revenues of $28-$29 million ● Gross margins of approximately 67 percent on a non-GAAP basis and 63 percent on a GAAP basis ● Cash balances increased by approximately $18 million to approximately $350 million

"While we were able to deliver our 10th consecutive year of top line revenue growth, we are clearly disappointed with the results of the fourth quarter," stated Jim McCluney, president and CEO. "After a record third quarter we experienced a steeper decline in our Embedded Storage Products than anticipated. This weakness in ESP was combined with lower than anticipated revenues in the Host Server Products primarily through the distribution channel which historically has been strong at the end of the quarter."

"While the near term business environment is more challenging than we would like, the Company remains financially healthy and we are very focused on delivering stronger results in fiscal 2009," McCluney concluded.

Emulex expects to announce its final fourth quarter and year-end 2008 financial and operating results on August 7, 2008 and will provide additional information and commentary during its regularly scheduled quarterly conference call after the market closes on that date.

Note Regarding Preliminary Non-GAAP Financial Information. To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release (i) non-GAAP gross margins and (ii) non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses and gains. As a general matter, the Company uses non-GAAP measures in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Among other things, the Company uses such non-GAAP financial measures in addition to and in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures to help analyze the performance of its core business, in connection with the preparation of annual budgets, and in measuring performance for some forms of compensation. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze the Company's historical results and in providing estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP measures, could result in confusion among analysts and others and a

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/0710-01.jsp (1 of 4) [2/12/2009 6:13:04 PM] Jul 10, 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES PRELIMINARY FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS misplaced perception that the Company's results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.

The non-GAAP disclosures and the non-GAAP adjustments, including the basis for excluding such adjustments and the impact on the Company's operations, are outlined below:

Preliminary Non-GAAP gross margin. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, and (ii) stock-based compensation expense. At the time of an acquisition, the intangible assets of the acquired company are recorded at fair value and amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company believes that such intangibles do not constitute part of its core business because they generally represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and as such they are effectively part of transaction costs rather than ongoing costs of operating the Company's core business. In this regard, the Company notes that (1) once the intangibles are fully amortized, the intangibles will not be replaced with cash costs and therefore, the exclusion of these costs provides management and investors with better visibility into the actual costs required to generate revenues over time, and (2) although the Company sets the amortization expense based on useful life of the various assets at the time of the transaction, the Company cannot influence the timing and amount of the future amortization expense recognition once the lives are established. As a result, the Company believes that exclusion of these costs in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures provides management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies within its core business. Similarly, the Company believes that presentation of gross margin and other non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact to gross margin of stock-based compensation expense assists management and investors in evaluating the period over period performance of the Company's ongoing core business operations because the expenses are non-cash in nature and, although the size of the grants is within the Company's control, the amount of expense varies depending on factors such as short-term fluctuations in stock price and volatility which can be unrelated to the operational performance of the Company during the period in question and generally is outside the control of management during the period in which the expense is recognized. Moreover, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors to understand the impact of the expensing of stock-based compensation to the Company's gross margin and other financial measures in comparison to both prior periods as well as to its competitors.

Preliminary Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share exclude the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles and (ii) stock-based compensation expense. In addition, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share reflect an adjustment of income tax expense associated with exclusion of the foregoing expense items. The adjustment of income taxes is required in order to provide management and investors a more accurate assessment of the taxes that would have been payable on net income, as adjusted by exclusion of the effects of the above listed items. The Company believes that presentation of measures of diluted earnings per share that exclude these items is useful to management and investors for the reasons described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin.

GAAP and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share do not reflect tax and other charges associated with the Company's globalization initiatives, the amount of which cannot be ascertained at this time. The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share has economic substance because the excluded expenses are infrequent in nature, do not represent current cash expenditures, or are unlikely to be recurring and are variable in nature. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measures of net income and diluted earnings per share is that they may not be comparable with the calculation of net income and diluted earnings per

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/0710-01.jsp (2 of 4) [2/12/2009 6:13:04 PM] Jul 10, 2008 - EMULEX ANNOUNCES PRELIMINARY FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS share for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: The statements and financial information set forth above are preliminary and contain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or changes to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances. The Company wishes to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. In the past, the Company's results have been significantly impacted by a widespread slowdown in technology investment that pressured the storage networking market that is the mainstay of the Company's business. A downturn in information technology spending could adversely affect the Company's revenues and results of operations. As a result of this uncertainty, the Company is unable to predict with any accuracy what future results might be. Other factors affecting these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: slower than expected growth of the storage networking market or the failure of the Company's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate the Company's products into their systems; the Company's dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, or decrease or delays in orders by, any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of the Company's or the Company's OEM customers' new or enhanced products; the variability in the level of the Company's backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of the Company's customers; the effects of terrorist activities, natural disasters and resulting political or economic instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for the Company's products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; possible transitions from board or box level to application specific computer chip solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher-end to lower-end mezzanine card products; a decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of the Company's products; delays in product development; the Company's reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; any inadequacy of the Company's intellectual property protection or the potential for third- party claims of infringement; the Company's ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; plans for research and development activities; the Company's dependence on international sales and internationally produced products; the effect of acquisitions; impairment charges; changes in tax rates or legislation in the US and other countries; changes in our effective tax rate; fluctuations in freight costs and potential disruptions in the transportation infrastructure for our products and components; the increased travel, infrastructure, accounting, and legal compliance costs associated with multiple international locations; potential restrictions on transferring funds between countries and difficulties associated with repatriating cash generated or held outside of the United States in a tax-efficient manner; difficulty maintaining management oversight and control of remote locations; potential governmental challenges to our transfer pricing practices in the US and other countries; currency exchange rate movements that could impact our business operating results and financial condition, changes in accounting standards; and the potential effects of global warming and any resulting regulatory changes on our business. These and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its recent filings on Forms 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q, under the caption "Risk Factors."

Independent Testing Firm Finds Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs Superior to Competitive Offerings

Demartek's Rigorous Evaluation Finds Emulex HBAs Provide More Scalable Management, Stronger Performance and Broader Support

Costa Mesa, Calif., June 24, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced the results of an evaluation report by Demartek, a firm specializing in independent analysis and lab validation testing, that compares Emulex LightPulse® Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs) to competing solutions from Brocade. Demartek found that overall, Emulex HBAs are more feature-rich, are designed for more scalable management, provide broader support and have stronger performance than Brocade HBAs.

"Emulex has been delivering advanced Fibre Channel SAN connectivity solutions for more than a dozen years, and Demartek's evaluation is evidence of our strength in providing industry-leading HBAs that offer the strongest performance, interoperability and backwards compatibility with existing and next-generation data center solutions," said Mike Smith, executive vice president, worldwide marketing, Emulex. "Combining our experience, field-proven reliability and market strength makes Emulex LightPulse HBAs the clear choice for IT managers."

Key highlights of the Demartek report include:

● Availability and Support: Emulex HBAs and drivers are qualified and supported by all the major server, operating system and storage vendors and are widely available through retail channels, whereas Brocade's HBAs are only available through retail channels and offer very limited support. ● Installation: Installing the Brocade HBAs required two separate installation procedures and more interaction by the SAN administrator than with the Emulex HBAs. Overall, the installation process for both the HBA driver and management suite was easier for the Emulex HBAs and administrators in large-scale environments with many servers and HBAs will find that the Emulex approach simpler and easier. ● Performance: In a basic performance test using a HP DL585G2 server connected to a Texas Memory Systems RAMSAN storage device through a Brocade Silkworm 4100 Fibre Channel switch, the Emulex HBAs outperformed the Brocade HBAs for single- and dual-channel configurations for all block sizes. ● HBA Management: Emulex's HBA management suite, HBAnyware, is more intuitive, streamlined and customizable than Brocade's Enterprise Server Connectivity Manager (ESCM). Key differentiators include faster deployment (two steps vs. five), automatic initialization of local and remote hosts, automatic firmware updates with event log for ease-of-use and customizable driver parameters, largely unavailable in the Brocade ESCM. ● Multipathing Support: Emulex HBAs are certified to work with all the major multipathing solutions in the market today from server, storage and operating system vendors. Comparatively, Brocade HBAs do not have any major complete server- to-storage multipathing solution certifications. ● Reliability and Installed Base: Emulex has a proven HBA customer support center, an installed base of more than five million host server ports and more than 10 million hours of field mean time between failures. Brocade only began selling HBAs in September, 2007.

"Emulex's breadth and depth of experience in Fibre Channel technology was obvious in this evaluation, as its HBAs proved to have broad industry reach, robust performance and proven reliability," said Dennis Martin, president, Demartek. "As companies evaluate SAN connectivity solutions, Emulex rises to the top of the list, especially for large-scale environments, as Emulex HBAs are easy to use, highly scalable and feature-rich."

Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs Selected for SAN Connectivity Solution in Virtualization Projects Using EMC Networked Storage

Country's Largest Direct Seller of Home Accessories and Global Supplier of Electronic Components Choose Emulex LightPulse Fibre Channel HBAs

EMC World - LAS VEGAS, May 19, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that its LightPulse® Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) were selected as the storage area network (SAN) connectivity solution of choice in two end users' server virtualization projects that utilize EMC networked storage systems. Home Interiors & Gifts, Inc. and Molex Incorporated selected Emulex HBAs based on ease of administration, reliability and customer confidence in support for future evolution of the SAN architecture.

"With the high correlation between server virtualization and networked storage, Emulex continues to provide end users with the connectivity tools and technology they require to efficiently and effectively manage their virtualized server environments," said Mike Smith, executive vice president of worldwide marketing, Emulex. "As companies embark on server virtualization projects, SAN administrators must examine their infrastructure and Emulex has demonstrated its leadership in supporting virtualized server environments."

In Carrolton, Texas, Home Interiors & Gifts is transitioning its Windows server data center to a virtualized environment. While meeting the initial management goals of cost savings through consolidation, the IT group found that deployment flexibility, dynamic allocation of resources and business continuity efficiencies are a major part of the payback equation for the project. As applications are migrated from standalone systems onto VMware ESX servers, the need for external storage can increase dramatically. With migration of applications to Fibre Channel SAN-connected VMware ESX servers, the data was moved to EMC® CLARiiON® storage arrays in the enterprise SAN. As the virtualization implementation progressed, Home Interiors chose Emulex LightPulse HBAs to leverage the technology's native VMware support and robust management tools.

"We looked at the capability of the Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs and management tools and saw features that were not available from other suppliers," said Steven Ham, Senior Windows System Administrator at Home Interiors & Gifts. "On the hardware side, there is the native support of VMware. Fibre Channel should just work, and that's what we see with Emulex HBAs. With the HBA management tools, we get discovery and dynamic configuration capabilities that would otherwise require additional investment in tools running on other SAN components."

Molex Incorporated, a leading provider of interconnect products headquartered in Lisle, Illinois, is addressing the challenges of fulfilling service requirements, while meeting corporate goals for environmental responsibility with a multi-year server virtualization project. As part of the project, Molex evaluated its SAN connectivity requirements and asked Emulex to demonstrate its capabilities in VMware ESX server environments linked via a SAN to EMC storage systems. The company had a goal of transitioning at least half of its systems onto virtual platforms.

"We appreciated the comprehensive and automated HBA management tools provided by Emulex in the native Windows environment and wanted to see if we could count on the same capability within a virtualized server environment," said Andrew Houlne, Infrastructure Project Leader, Molex Americas. "Overall, we were very happy with what we saw. The out-of-the-box performance is solid, and the new capabilities that Emulex is delivering around virtualization are very interesting."

"EMC networked storage paired with Emulex HBAs forms an excellent solution for SAN connectivity in virtualization environments," said Deirdre Wassell, director, storage product marketing, EMC. "We've made a strong commitment to help customers implement VMware infrastructures. Our extensive work with Emulex helps us deliver end-to-end solutions that enable our customers to get the most value from their IT investments."

About Emulex

------

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information. To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release or in the webcast to discuss the Company's financial results for the third fiscal quarter which may be accessed via the Company's website at www.emulex.com: (i) non-GAAP gross margin, (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses, (iii) non-GAAP operating income, (iv) non-GAAP net income, and (v) non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses and gains. As a general matter, the Company uses these non-GAAP measures in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Among other things, the Company uses such non- GAAP financial measures in addition to and in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures to help analyze the performance of its core business, in connection with the preparation of annual budgets, and in measuring performance for some forms of compensation. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze the Company's historical results and in providing estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP measures, could result in confusion among analysts and others and a misplaced perception that the Company's results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.

The non-GAAP disclosures and the non-GAAP adjustments, including the basis for excluding such adjustments and the impact on the Company's operations, are outlined below:

Non-GAAP gross margin. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) stock- based compensation expense, (iii) the mark-up to fair value of inventory acquired in the Sierra Logic acquisition and subsequently sold and (iv) impairment of intangible assets. At the time of an acquisition, the intangible assets and inventory of the acquired company are recorded at fair value and subsequently either amortized over their estimated useful lives or expensed as sold. The Company believes that such intangibles and the mark-up on acquired inventory do not constitute part of its core business because they generally represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and as such they are effectively part of transaction costs rather than ongoing costs of operating the Company's core business. In this regard, the Company notes that (1) once the intangibles are fully amortized or the acquired inventory is consumed, the intangibles and the inventory mark-up will not be replaced with cash costs and therefore, the exclusion of these costs provides management and investors with better visibility into the actual costs required to generate revenues over time, and (2) although the Company sets the amortization expense based on useful life of the various assets at the time of the transaction, the Company cannot influence the timing and amount of the future amortization expense recognition once the lives are established. As a result, the Company believes that exclusion of these costs in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures provides management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies within its core business. Similarly, the Company believes that presentation of gross margin and other non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact to gross margin of stock-based compensation expense assists management and investors in evaluating the period over period performance of the Company's ongoing core business operations because the expenses are non-cash in nature and, although the size of the grants is within the Company's control, the amount of expense varies depending on factors such as short-term fluctuations in stock price and volatility which can be unrelated to

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q3.jsp (2 of 10) [2/12/2009 6:13:59 PM] Apr 24, 2008 - EMULEX REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2008 RESULTS the operational performance of the Company during the period in question and generally is outside the control of management during the period in which the expense is recognized. Moreover, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors to understand the impact of the expensing of stock-based compensation to the Company's gross margin and other financial measures in comparison to both prior periods as well as to its competitors. Furthermore, with respect to the exclusion of charges relating to the impairment of intangible assets, the Company believes that presentation of a measure of non-GAAP gross margin that excludes such charges is useful to management and investors in evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations on a period-to-period basis and relative to the Company's competitors. In this regard, the Company notes that the impairment of intangible assets charges are infrequent in nature and are unrelated to the Company's core business.

Non-GAAP operating income. Non-GAAP operating income excludes the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development expenses, (iii) stock-based compensation expense, (iv) the mark-up to fair value of inventory acquired in the Sierra Logic acquisition and subsequently sold and (v) impairment of intangible assets. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of operating income that excludes amortization of intangibles, the mark-up on Sierra Logic inventory acquired, stock-based compensation expense and impairment of intangible assets is useful to management and investors for the same reasons as described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin. In-process research and development is an expense relating to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, in-process research and development costs of the acquired entity are expensed. As is the case with respect to the amortization of intangibles, the Company believes that such in-process research and development expenses do not constitute part of its core business because they generally represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value or develop technology prior to acquisition and as such they are part of transaction costs rather than ongoing costs of operating the Company's core business. In this regard, the Company notes that (1) once in-process research and development is expensed, it generally will not be replaced with cash costs and therefore, the exclusion of these costs provides management and investors with better visibility into the actual costs required to generate revenues over time, and (2) the Company cannot influence the amount of in-process research and development expenses incurred. As a result, the Company believes that exclusion of in-process research and development expenses in presenting non-GAAP operating income gives management and investors a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies within its core business.

Non-GAAP operating expenses. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development expenses, (iii) stock-based compensation expense and (iv) impairment of intangible assets. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of operating expenses that excludes the amortization of intangibles, in-process research and development expenses, stock-based compensation expense and impairment of intangible assets is useful to investors and the Company for the same reasons as described above with respect to non- GAAP operating income and non-GAAP gross margin.

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q3.jsp (3 of 10) [2/12/2009 6:13:59 PM] Apr 24, 2008 - EMULEX REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2008 RESULTS these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share exclude the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development expenses, (iii) stock- based compensation expense, (iv) the mark-up to fair value of inventory acquired in the Sierra Logic acquisition and subsequently sold, (v) net recovery of a previous impairment of a strategic investment and associated note, and (vi) impairment of intangible assets. In addition, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share reflect an adjustment of income tax expense associated with exclusion of the foregoing expense (income) items. The adjustment of income taxes is required in order to provide management and investors a more accurate assessment of the taxes that would have been payable on net income, as adjusted by exclusion of the effects of the above listed items. The Company believes that presentation of measures of net income and diluted earnings per share that exclude these items is useful to management and investors for the reasons described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin and non- GAAP operating income. Moreover, the Company believes that presentation of a measure of net income and diluted earnings per share that excludes the net recovery related to a previous impairment of strategic investment and associated note, is useful to management and investors in evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations on a period- to-period basis and relative to the Company's competitors. In this regard, the Company notes that recoveries of this type are infrequent in nature and are unrelated to the Company's core business.

The Company believes disclosure of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share has economic substance because the excluded expenses are infrequent in nature, do not represent current cash expenditures, or are unlikely to be recurring and are variable in nature. A material limitation associated with the use of this measure as compared to the GAAP measures of net income and diluted earnings per share is that they may not be comparable with the calculation of net income and diluted earnings per share for other companies in the Company's industry. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding GAAP financial measure in this release and in the Company's financial statements and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure to enable investors to perform their own analysis.

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: With the exception of historical information, the statements set forth above, including, without limitation, those contained in the discussion of "Business Outlook" above, and the reconciliation of forward-looking diluted earnings per share below, contain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or changes to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances. The Company wishes to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. The fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. In the past, the Company's results have been significantly impacted by a widespread slowdown in technology investment that pressured the storage networking market that is the mainstay of the Company's business. A downturn in information technology spending could adversely affect the Company's revenues and results of operations. As a result of this uncertainty, the Company is unable to predict with any accuracy what future results might be. Other factors affecting these forward- looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: slower than expected growth of the storage networking market or the failure of the Company's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate the Company's products into their systems; the Company's dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, or decrease or delays in orders by, any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of the Company's or the Company's OEM customers' new or enhanced products; the variability in the level of the Company's backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of the Company's customers; the effects of terrorist activities, natural disasters and resulting political or economic instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for the Company's products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; possible transitions from board or box level to application specific computer chip solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher- end to lower-end mezzanine card products; a decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of the Company's products; delays in product development; the Company's reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; any inadequacy of the Company's intellectual property protection or the potential for third-party claims of infringement; the Company's ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; plans for research and development activities; the Company's dependence on international sales and internationally

These and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its recent filings on Forms 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q, under the caption "Risk Factors."

Emulex Announces LP21000 Family of Converged Network Adapters Supporting Fibre Channel over Ethernet

New Products Leverage Emulex's Fully Qualified, OEM Certified Fibre Channel Drivers to Provide Investment Protection

Storage Networking World - ORLANDO, Fla., April 8, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today introduced its LightPulse® LP21000 family of converged network adapters (CNAs), which enable both network and storage traffic to be combined onto a single Unified Fabric. Utilizing a 10Gb/s Enhanced Ethernet network, Emulex's LP21000 family is designed to support the Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) protocol that converges Ethernet-based LAN and Fibre Channel-based SAN connectivity. Available this quarter, Emulex's family of LP21000 CNAs enable reduced data center complexity, management costs and power consumption.

Customers deploying Emulex LP21000 CNAs benefit from many of the same features and capabilities associated with the Company's award-winning LightPulse family of Fibre Channel host bus adapters, such as fully qualified, OEM supported drivers based on a common architecture that spans both product lines. Providing a common driver architecture allows end users to seamlessly integrate Emulex FCoE-based CNAs into existing data centers using the same software infrastructure across the SAN.

"Emulex's approach to FCoE promises to deliver the convergence that data center managers require to streamline operations and reduce overall total cost of ownership. Enabling our customers to use a common architecture across both CNAs and HBAs provides a seamless migration path for deploying next generation FCoE connectivity solutions," said Ameesh Divatia, general manager and senior vice president, Intelligent Network Products, Emulex Corp. "Our goal is to preserve and leverage the substantial investments our customers have made in Fibre Channel technology and SAN management tools, while delivering the next generation products necessary to help transform their data center infrastructures."

Additionally, Emulex is working with an ecosystem of partners to bring interoperable FCoE-based solutions to market. For example, Emulex is collaborating with Cisco to help ensure broad interoperability of the LP21000 family of CNAs and the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series of switch products. Emulex is also working with its OEM partners on product qualification and support.

"FCoE can help deliver a seamless path for data center managers looking to converge multiple fabrics to help streamline operations in an effort to consolidate their environments onto a single network," said Barbara Robidoux, vice president of storage marketing, EMC. "EMC is working with partners like Emulex to help ensure the optimization benefits ultimately translate into increased efficiency and lower costs. One of the ways to lower costs is to help preserve customers' existing investments, which is one of the key attributes of Emulex's approach to a common architecture."

Trends such as server consolidation, convergence and virtualization are key drivers for increased SAN deployments. With FCoE, customers may now leverage the ubiquity of Ethernet to converge both storage and networking traffic, improve overall efficiency and simplify the infrastructure. Designed to natively transport Fibre Channel traffic over the Ethernet network, FCoE will take advantage of lossless Ethernet in the data center. A lossless Ethernet fabric provides the level of performance and reliable delivery of data required for enterprise storage environments.

"Working with an ecosystem of leading vendors such as Emulex, we expect FCoE to provide customers with a compelling next-generation solution that fits within their existing SAN environments and preserves their current data center investment," said Soni Jiandani, vice president of marketing at Nuova Systems, a majority-owned subsidiary of Cisco. "Cisco and Emulex share a vision to help customers migrate to technologies like FCoE that provide a solid return on investment, while taking advantage of existing data center investments in both Ethernet and Fibre Channel."

"Enterprises face a number of difficult challenges as they strive to simplify their data centers through converged networks. They need solutions that allow them to protect their investments in key mission critical and business critical applications," said Richard Villars, vice president of storage systems research, IDC. "Solutions like Emulex's new FCoE-enabled products that protect enterprises' investments in existing tried and tested driver architectures will play a critical role in helping companies deploy more scalable and efficient data centers."

COSTA MESA, Calif., March 31, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that Everything Channel's CRN magazine named Emulex's vice president of worldwide channel sales, Steve Marconi, a 2008 CRN Channel Chief for the third straight year and recognized the Company with a Silver 5-Star award for communication in the VARBusiness 2008 Partner Program Guide.

CRN Channel Chiefs are recognized as influential executives who consistently promote and execute effective channel partner programs and strategies. Marconi was selected as a Channel Chief for his achievements in driving the expansion and re-launch of the Emulex Reseller Program. The Emulex Reseller Program delivers efficiency and profitability for Emulex's channel partners, and has expanded Emulex's network of server and storage integrators, VARs and channel consultants that recommend and deploy storage area network (SAN) solutions.

"I'm honored to be recognized by CRN and believe this award is a testament to the expansion and growth of the Emulex Reseller Program," said Steve Marconi, vice president of worldwide channel sales, Emulex Corporation. "Reseller partners are an integral part of Emulex's success and direct involvement is essential to understanding their business objectives, which ultimately leads to the Company's success."

Emulex was recognized as a Silver 5-Star Winner in the VARBusiness 2008 Partner Program Guide, which acknowledges the commitment and strength of a vendor's partner program for its channel resellers, IT integrators and technology consultants. Of the hundreds of entries reviewed for inclusion in the 14th annual VARBusiness Partner Program Guide, Emulex was one of only 10 Silver 5-Star Winners recognized in its category.

"The quality of a vendor's partner program reflects the true commitment they have to the thriving Solution Provider Channel, and this year's 5-Star partner programs guide winners are the cream-of-the-crop of channel-friendly vendors," said Robert C. DeMarzo, senior vice president and editorial director, Everything Channel. "Further, effective channel executives consistently ensure that the channel's voice is heard when strategic decisions are being made and this year's CRN Channel Chiefs, including Emulex's Steve Marconi, are strong channel advocates and we applaud them for their successful partner programs and strategies."

This is the sixth consecutive year that CRN has developed the Channel Chiefs list, and the 14th for the VARBusiness Partner Program Silver 5-Star Awards. Winners for both awards were chosen based on criteria, including policy and program innovations made during the past year; the amount of revenue the company generates through partners; willingness to speak publicly on behalf of the channel; and the number of years they have dedicated to channel activities.

Emulex 8Gb/s HBAs Enable Record Performance in TPC Benchmark Utilizing IBM System x Servers and Microsoft SQL Server 2008

Industry-Leading Configuration Proves Ideal for Transaction Intensive Environments

COSTA MESA, Calif., March 18, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that its LightPulse® 8Gb/ s Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) enabled a new record-level Transaction Processing Performance Council (TPC) benchmark. The Emulex LPe12000 8Gb/s HBAs, coupled with the IBM System x 3850 M2 server, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008, provides the industry-leading system configuration that produced a 14 percent increase in the total number of transactions performed per second over a similar test conducted in 2007.

"This ground-breaking performance is a result of our ongoing collaboration with IBM and Microsoft to deliver the highest performance solutions that today's enterprise-class data centers demand," said Mike Smith, executive vice president of worldwide marketing, Emulex Corp. "Emulex's new LPe12000 8Gb/s HBAs provide the critical I/O performance and features, such as MSI-X support, that meet the increasing requirements of large transactional databases."

The record-setting performance is a direct result of the compatibility and advanced features of these new products, such as the increased 8Gb/s Fibre Channel speed of Emulex LPe12000 HBAs and support for the Message-Signaled Interrupts eXtended (MSI-X) standard, featured in Microsoft Windows Server 2008. MSI-X delivers the interrupt handling mechanism that enables improved performance and is ideal for transaction intensive environments, such as Microsoft SQL Server 2008. In addition, MSI-X enables reduced host CPU utilization and greater I/O scalability by allocating each Emulex LPe12000 HBA with its own set of interrupts.

"Today's IT customers expect a comprehensive development and business intelligence platform that empowers users with the high-performance information processing they require," said David Powell, director SQL Server Performance at Microsoft Corp. "SQL Server 2008, running on Windows Server 2008 with Emulex HBAs and the IBM System x server platform, delivers on the Microsoft data platform vision, enabling organizations to run their most mission- critical applications, while lowering the cost of managing the data infrastructure and delivering insights and information to all users."

This record-setting performance was achieved in the TPC-E benchmark test, which is composed of a set of transactional operations designed to represent a complex On-Line Transaction Processing (OLTP) application environment. High transaction environments benefit from enhanced overall system performance by leveraging the increased speed and bandwidth available with Emulex LPe12000 HBAs. The TPC creates numerous benchmarking tests, which are used to calibrate the performance of the latest software and hardware components available to IT professionals.

VMworld Europe - CANNES, France, February 26, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced the integration of its Host Bus Adapter (HBA) management architecture that integrates with VMware ESX Server 3i, the industry's first embedded, ultra-thin hypervisor for virtualized server environments.

Emulex's advanced HBA management capabilities integrated with the VMware ESX Server 3i platform will enable customers to seamlessly configure and manage HBAs deployed in VMware ESX 3i-based servers from the same central management point used to manage HBAs across the data center.

"The close collaboration with VMware has enabled Emulex to develop and demonstrate an excellent level of device management integration with VMware ESX Server 3i," said Mike Smith, executive vice president of worldwide marketing, Emulex. "Our ongoing innovation with respect to the integration of virtualized servers and SANs continues to provide our end user customers with the robust tools for open and secure management."

Following the announcement of Emulex's HBA management suite for VMware ESX Server 3.5 at VMworld 2007 last September, Emulex is providing enhanced functionality for HBA management in VMware ESX Server 3i to deliver simple, centralized management of virtualized servers connecting to SANs. The integration of Emulex HBA management within VMware ESX Server 3i enables remote and local management, boot from SAN enablement, driver configuration, firmware updates, and other advanced management capabilities.

The VMware ESX Server 3i hypervisor is based on VMware's market-leading virtualization technology used by more than 100,000 customers. It's the industry's smallest hypervisor (32MB), making it the most secure and reliable and the only OS-independent virtualization platform available. VMware ESX Server 3i, embedded in server systems, delivers full- featured single-server consolidation with fast and easy deployment-the first virtual machine can operate within minutes of booting a server-and the assurance of pre-configured and optimized hardware configurations. VMware ESX Server 3i is fully compatible with the award-winning VMware datacenter virtualization and management solutions, supporting flagship capabilities such as live migration and automatic virtual machine load balancing, as well as with VMware desktop virtualization and management solutions.

For use with Emulex's LightPulse® family of HBAs, the new standards-based Emulex HBA management architecture for VMware ESX Server 3i is a result of close collaboration with VMware. At VMworld Europe 2008, this week in Cannes, France, Emulex is working with VMware to showcase the benefits of this HBA management integration.

With VMware ESX Server 3i, customers can rapidly deploy virtualization out of the box. The automatic configuration capabilities provided by VMware ESX Server 3i provide detection, discovery and intelligent- default configuration, with a menu-driven startup experience that enables end users to go from booting the server to running virtual machines in a matter of minutes. Additionally, those customers attaching VMware virtualized servers to SANs may now benefit from integrated HBA management from Emulex, providing a simpler, more comprehensive user experience.

"Our work with Emulex includes working toward open, standards-based device management on VMware ESX Server 3i to enhance the management capabilities of VMware virtualization environments that include external SANs," said Brian Byun, vice president of global partners and solutions, VMware. "With Emulex's new standards-based HBA management integration with VMware ESX Server 3i, customers can quickly realize the benefit of better interoperability, security and cost savings in managing a multi-vendor storage and networking solution in a standard format."

These new management capabilities will be available for use with existing 4Gb/s HBAs and the new LPe12000 family of 8Gb/ s HBAs to provide the I/O scalability necessary to support an increased number of applications running on VMware virtualized software. Leveraging these new products to consolidate additional applications onto fewer physical servers increases the benefits of VMware virtualization, such as reduced procurement and management costs, assured business continuity and lower power and cooling costs.

EMULEX REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2008 RESULTS

Achieves Record Quarterly Revenues of $130.6 Million

COSTA MESA, Calif., January 24, 2008 -- Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced results for its second fiscal quarter ended December 30, 2007.

Second Quarter Highlights

● Total net revenues of $130.6 million, an increase of 12% sequentially and 8% year-over-year ● Host Server Product (HSP) net revenues of $94.4 million, or 72% of total net revenues ● HSP installed base surpasses five million ports ● Embedded Storage Product (ESP) net revenues of $36.1 million, or 28% of total net revenues ● GAAP gross margin of 63% and non-GAAP gross margin of 68% ● GAAP operating income of $25.4 million, or approximately 19% of total net revenues, and record non-GAAP operating income of $41.1 million, or approximately 31% of net revenues ● GAAP diluted EPS of $0.21 and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.34 ● Cash, cash equivalents and investments of $307.6 million, an increase of $32.7 million from $274.9 million at the end of the prior quarter ● Inventory turnover of 10.8 times

Financial Results

Second fiscal quarter net revenues were $130.6 million, an increase of 12% sequentially and 8% from the second quarter of fiscal 2007, and represented the highest quarterly revenues in the Company's history. Second quarter GAAP net income was $17.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted share. GAAP net income per diluted share increased 75% sequentially from $0.12 per diluted share in the first fiscal quarter and compared favorably to a loss of $0.12 per share in the year ago period. Non-GAAP net income for the second fiscal quarter, which excludes amortization of intangibles and stock- based compensation, was $28.2 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share increased 26% both sequentially and year-over-year from $0.27 per diluted share in both of the prior periods. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are included in the accompanying financial data.

Jim McCluney, president and CEO commented, "After a strong start in our first quarter of fiscal 2008, we followed up with record revenues and record non-GAAP operating income in our second quarter. Embedded Storage Products (ESP), which grew 29% sequentially, was a key contributor to achieving these results. We expect continued momentum in the March quarter from design wins which have begun shipping recently and several more unannounced wins to further drive ESP revenue and deliver on our diversification strategy. In addition, we saw solid performance from our Host Server Products where Fibre Channel HBAs and mezzanine cards for blade servers grew more than 10 percent sequentially."

"Technology leadership for the data centers of today and tomorrow is our priority. Today, the need to handle the unrelenting growth of digital data within tightening budget constraints is driving demand for products that enable CIOs to deploy lower cost virtualized servers and tiered storage. For the converged data centers of tomorrow, we partnered with Nuova Systems to showcase the first demonstration of Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) in Europe at Storage Networking World during the quarter," concluded McCluney.

Business Outlook

Although actual results may vary depending on a variety of factors, many of which are outside the Company's control, Emulex is providing guidance for its third fiscal quarter ending March 30, 2008. Emulex is budgeting for third quarter net revenues in the range of $127-$131 million. The Company expects non-GAAP gross margin will be approximately 67% and non-GAAP earnings per share could amount to $0.28-$0.30. On a GAAP basis, Emulex expects gross margin of approximately 62% and diluted third quarter earnings per share of $0.16-$0.18 per share, reflecting approximately $0.12 per diluted share in expected GAAP charges arising primarily from amortization of intangibles and stock-based compensation.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information. To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release or in the webcast to discuss the Company's financial results for the second fiscal quarter which may be accessed via the Company's website at www.emulex.com: (i) non-GAAP gross margin, (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses, (iii) non-GAAP operating income, (iv) non-GAAP net income, and (v) non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses and gains. As a general matter, the Company uses these non-GAAP measures in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Among other things, the Company uses such non- GAAP financial measures in addition to and in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures to help analyze the performance of its core business, in connection with the preparation of annual budgets, and in measuring performance for some forms of compensation. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze the Company's historical results and in providing estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP measures, could result in confusion among analysts and others and a misplaced perception that the Company's results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.

The non-GAAP disclosures and the non-GAAP adjustments, including the basis for excluding such adjustments and the impact on the Company's operations, are outlined below:

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q2.jsp (2 of 10) [2/12/2009 6:15:03 PM] Jan 24, 2008 - Emulex Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2008 Results a more effective means of evaluating its historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies within its core business. Similarly, the Company believes that presentation of gross margin and other non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact to gross margin of stock-based compensation expense assists management and investors in evaluating the period over period performance of the Company's ongoing core business operations because the expenses are non-cash in nature and, although the size of the grants is within the Company's control, the amount of expense varies depending on factors such as short-term fluctuations in stock price and volatility which can be unrelated to the operational performance of the Company during the period in question and generally is outside the control of management during the period in which the expense is recognized. Moreover, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors to understand the impact of the expensing of stock-based compensation to the Company's gross margin and other financial measures in comparison to both prior periods as well as to its competitors. Furthermore, with respect to the exclusion of charges relating to the impairment of intangible assets, the Company believes that presentation of a measure of non-GAAP gross margin that excludes such charges is useful to management and investors in evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations on a period-to-period basis and relative to the Company's competitors. In this regard, the Company notes that the impairment of intangible assets charges are infrequent in nature and are unrelated to the Company's core business.

Non-GAAP operating expenses. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effects of (i) amortization of other intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development expenses and (iii) stock-based compensation expense. The Company believes that presentation of a measure of operating expenses that excludes the amortization of intangibles, in-process research and development expenses and stock-based compensation expense is useful to investors and the Company for the same reasons as described above with respect to non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP gross margin.

http://bacchus.emulex.com/www/press//2008/08-q2.jsp (3 of 10) [2/12/2009 6:15:03 PM] Jan 24, 2008 - Emulex Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2008 Results

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share exclude the effects of (i) amortization of intangibles, (ii) in-process research and development expenses, (iii) stock- based compensation expense, (iv) the mark-up to fair value of inventory acquired in the Sierra Logic acquisition and subsequently sold, (v) recovery of a previous impairment of a strategic investment and associated note, and (vi) impairment of intangible assets. In addition, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share reflect an adjustment of income tax expense associated with exclusion of the foregoing expense (income) items. The adjustment of income taxes is required in order to provide management and investors a more accurate assessment of the taxes that would have been payable on net income, as adjusted by exclusion of the effects of the above listed items. The Company believes that presentation of measures of net income and diluted earnings per share that exclude these items is useful to management and investors for the reasons described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin and non- GAAP operating income. Moreover, the Company believes that presentation of a measure of net income and diluted earnings per share that excludes the net recovery related to a previous impairment of strategic investment and associated note, is useful to management and investors in evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations on a period- to-period basis and relative to the Company's competitors. In this regard, the Company notes that recoveries of this type are infrequent in nature and are unrelated to the Company's core business.

Emulex Teams with Cisco and VMware to Deliver Enhanced Storage Solution

New Offering Combines Benefits of NPIV and VMware VMotion™ to Provide Enhanced Capabilities for Maintaining SAN Best Practices and Virtual Machine Migration

Cisco Networkers, BARCELONA, SPAIN, January 24, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced the availability of a storage networking solution that runs on VMware virtualization infrastructure and incorporates Emulex LightPulse® 4Gb/s host bus adapters (HBAs), Cisco MDS Fibre Channel switches and VMware ESX Server 3.5.

The new offering leverages industry-standard NPIV to provide customers with the functionality to maintain storage area network (SAN) best practices, while delivering improved Quality of Service (QoS) and data protection capabilities. Additionally, Emulex has teamed with Cisco and VMware to integrate NPIV functionality into VMware VMotion technology, which enhances storage access by maintaining the same Virtual Port ID while migrating live virtual machines from one physical host to another.

"This solution brings together the best in virtualized server and storage technologies, innovation and expertise by combining the unique features associated with NPIV and VMware VMotion. VMware VMotion helps eliminate downtime and works with NPIV to ensure a continuous SAN connection during the virtual machine migration process, and enables leverage of critical features and functionality, such as zoning," said Mike Smith, executive vice president of worldwide marketing, Emulex Corporation. "By working with Cisco and VMware, we can provide our joint customers with a complete set of tools to enable infrastructure-wide virtualization and its full benefits including business continuity, disaster recovery and simplified IT management."

Home Interiors & Gifts, Inc., the largest direct seller of home accessories in North America, is currently migrating more than 100 Windows server hosts to a VMware virtualized environment and is in the process of converting all of its SAN connectivity to Emulex LightPulse HBAs.

"We are impressed with the capabilities of Emulex HBAs and the relationship between Emulex, Cisco and VMware. Implementing Emulex's LightPulse Virtual HBA technology with industry-standard NPIV support is a necessary step in our ongoing transition to a virtualized data center environment," said Levi Spears, SAN and Windows system administrator, Home Interiors & Gifts, Inc. "With the full integration of Emulex Virtual HBA technology within VMware ESX Server, we now have an easy route to implement SAN management best practices with capabilities such as zoning, array LUN masking and mapping across all of our virtual machines."

Another key capability of using the Emulex, Cisco and VMware solution includes the ability to create a unique identity for each virtual machine that can be tracked throughout the SAN. With this virtual machine identity, the data center manager can track statistics such as I/O throughput and error rates to better manage storage traffic and detect errors at the virtual machine level.

"Networked storage is fundamental to a virtualized architecture," said Brian Byun, vice president of global partners and solutions at VMware. "This solution provides new options for implementing SAN best practices within a virtualized environment."

Emulex and Cisco have created a Solution Guide that provides data center users with practical use cases and deployment scenarios for maximizing and understanding the benefits of NPIV technology within a VMware environment.

Emulex is demonstrating these enhanced capabilities based on VMware virtualization software at this week's Cisco Networkers in Barcelona, Spain, January 21-24, in booth #E2.

Emulex Extends Virtual HBA Technology to Next Generation Fibre Channel over Ethernet and 8Gb/ s SAN Connectivity Solutions

Company First to Demonstrate NPIV Using Next Generation Technologies at Cisco Networkers Conference

Cisco Networkers - BARCELONA, Spain, January 22, 2008 - Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) today announced that it is extending the capabilities of its leading-edge Virtual Host Bus Adapter (HBA) technology to its emerging technology platforms: 8Gb/s Fibre Channel HBAs and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Converged Network Adapters (CNAs). Emulex Virtual HBA technology, which is based on industry-standard N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV), is vital for effectively managing storage-connected resources in a server virtualization environment.

When combined with the inherent advantages and bandwidth of 8Gb/s Fibre Channel and 10Gb/s FCoE, Emulex enables increased benefits of server virtualization and consolidation by providing greater I/O capacity within the server. Emulex LightPulse Virtual HBAs and CNAs are equipped with a Service Level Interface (SLI™), which enables driver compatibility across all generations of Emulex products, including the forthcoming 8Gb/s LightPulse LPe12000 HBAs and FCoE CNAs.

"Extending support for Emulex Virtual HBA technology to our new suite of 8Gb/s and FCoE products will enable our end user customers to gain even greater benefits from server virtualization," said Mike Smith, executive vice president of worldwide marketing, Emulex. "Emulex has historically driven forward the adoption of new Fibre Channel technology and is dedicated to making the transition to 8Gb/s Fibre Channel and FCoE technology as seamless as possible for its data center customers, while maintaining key capabilities, such as virtual machine migration."

The demonstration at this week's Cisco Networkers event showcases NPIV supported virtual machine migration across virtual server environments between differing network speeds and protocols. The demonstration includes the Emulex LightPulse® 8Gb/s LPe12000 and 4Gb/s LPe11000 families with Virtual HBA technology based on industry- standard NPIV, and an Emulex FCoE CNA, connected to leading fabric switches. Additionally, Emulex CNAs are also featured in a FCoE Technology demonstration in the Nuova booth #E5.

"Teaming with Emulex to showcase the benefits of FCoE reinforces the strong ecosystem support for this compelling next generation data center I/O consolidation technology," said Soni Jiandani, chief marketing officer, Nuova Systems. "FCoE is key to providing our mutual customers with products designed to enable deployment of LAN and SAN connectivity on servers while lowering cabling, power and cooling expenses. We will continue working closely with Emulex to drive data center convergence with expanded SAN connectivity solutions that leverage existing management tools."

"This demonstration is unique in that it provides a glimpse into the future of the data center and the benefits 8Gb/s Fibre Channel and FCoE provide to end users," said Arun Taneja, founder and consulting analyst, Taneja Group. "As enterprises begin upgrading to faster speeds, the ability to migrate virtual machines from 4Gb/s HBAs to 8Gb/s HBAs will be a necessity, and Emulex has proven this ability with today's demonstration and gone a step further by demonstrating this capability within FCoE as well."

As a leader in NPIV technology and products, Emulex is again the first to demonstrate NPIV capabilities with emerging 8Gb/ s Fibre Channel and FCoE technologies. FCoE is designed to provide an efficient storage protocol for use on a consolidated Ethernet fabric within the data center. The end user benefits associated with FCoE include consolidated management and connectivity, which will lower operating costs and protect customers' existing Fibre Channel infrastructure investments.

Emulex is demonstrating these new capabilities at this week's Cisco Networkers in Barcelona, Spain, January 21-24, in booth #E2.
