  "Our fourth quarter results were solid.

Our continued focus on cash generation provided us the financial flexibility to reduce our long-term debt $275 million for the year. Improvements in our financial results are a testament to our focus on the fundamentals and solid execution of our strategy. We will continue to invest in leading technologies that enhance our offerings to our customers, and we remain focused on the quality of our revenue to further strengthen our operating model and drive shareholder value," stated Jure Sola, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Sanmina Corporation.
  "Our revenue outlook for the first quarter is slightly down sequentially as a result of seasonality and slower than anticipated ramp of new programs. We expect to deliver modest growth and further improve our financial results for fiscal year 2014," concluded Sola.
  The following outlook is for the first fiscal quarter ending December 28, 2013. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.
