Milpitas, CA, October 26, 2006 Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select: ISIL), announced today that Lou DiNardo, who was appointed President and Chief Operating Officer in January 2006, is no longer employed by the company. Prior to his current position he was Executive Vice President Power Management Group. He joined Intersil in July 2004 as a result of Intersils acquisition of Xicor. At Xicor, he served as President and CEO.
Lou played a pivotal role in the integration of Xicor into Intersil. He also helped our management team refocus and energize our Power Management business. And he has worked closely with me over the past 9 months as our President and COO, stated Rich Beyer, Intersils CEO. At this time, however, the Board of Directors and I have decided that I should resume full operational responsibility for the company as we move towards becoming a billion dollar high performance analog company over the next several years, Beyer continued.
The organizational responsibilities that were previously handled by Mr. DiNardo will now be managed by Mr. Beyer. We thank Lou for his contributions to Intersil and we wish him continued professional and personal success in the future, said Rich Beyer. About Intersil
