                   Q1 2000 LSI LOGIC REVENUES GROW 33 PERCENT
                 COMMUNICATIONS DRIVE REVENUE AND PROFIT GROWTH

MILPITAS, CALIFORNIA - LSI Logic Corporation (NYSE:LSI) today reported 2000
first quarter revenues of $615 million, a 33 percent increase over the $464
million posted in the first quarter of 1999.

Net income before amortization of goodwill and other special items (EBG), was
$88 million or 26 cents a diluted share, compared to the $11.2 million or 4
cents a diluted share in the first quarter of 1999. EBG diluted share figures
have been adjusted to reflect last February's two-for-one common stock split.

Improved profits reflect higher revenues, sequential gross margin expansion and
declining operating expenses. The company's gross margin improved to 42.4
percent in the first quarter of 2000 compared to 34.9 percent in the first
quarter of 1999. Operating expenses as a percent of revenues declined in the
first quarter of this year to 24.5 percent compared to 29.8 percent in the first
quarter of last year. Cash and short-term investments grew $207 million in the
first quarter to $868 million.

"Our first quarter profits represented more than a six-fold increase over the
year-ago period," said Wilfred J. Corrigan, LSI Logic chairman and chief
executive officer. "This positive momentum continued into Q2 and we expect April
to be the strongest bookings month ever for the company. We expect strong
revenue growth in the second quarter and for the remainder of the year."

During the first quarter, LSI Logic successfully completed the sale of $500
million of 4.0 percent convertible subordinated notes. "Through this accretive
transaction, LSI Logic was able to completely retire the senior debt incurred as
a result of the 1998 acquisition of Symbios, Inc.," said Doug Norby, LSI Logic
executive vice president and chief financial officer. "The balance of the
proceeds were used to augment our growing cash position and further strengthen
our balance sheet."

                        LSI LOGIC COMMUNICATIONS OVERVIEW

Communications continued as the primary growth driver for LSI Logic revenues and
profits in the first quarter. LSI Logic expects that the company's



<PAGE>   3

communications business - networking, broadband including optical switching,
wireless, set-top boxes and other applications - will grow 60 percent in 2000.

LSI Logic will utilize $25 million in one time gains (not included in EBG
calculation) realized on the sale of venture investments to augment the
company's communications venture fund. During the first quarter, LSI Logic made
several equity investments in communications technologies and companies. These
equity investments were made from LSI Logic's communications venture fund.

"We have now increased our communications venture fund to $75 million for equity
investments in emerging communications technologies and promising start-ups,"
said John Daane, LSI Logic executive vice president of the Communications
Products Group. "LSI Logic is well on track to achieving the 60 percent growth
target for communications. The company continues to focus its competitive
advantages on the rapidly growing global communications market. We are an
established leader in this space and we are gaining market share in critical
communications sectors."

</TABLE>


Pro forma statements of operations are intended to present the Company's
operating results, excluding amortization of goodwill and special items, for the
periods presented.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2000, the special items
represented restructuring of operations and other non-recurring items, net and
other special items. The other special items consisted of an unplanned gain on
sale of equity securities, charges associated with the elimination of a
non-strategic product area and the write-off of debt issuance costs resulting
from repayment of bank debt during the quarter.

During the three month period ended March 31, 1999, the special items
represented reversal of restructuring reserves and other non-recurring items,
net and the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. In the third
quarter of 1999, the Company adopted a program of regular selling of marketable
equity securities. Recurring investment income reflects the gain from sale of
the Company's marketable equity securities that was planned as part of the
program during the period presented. Unplanned gains were excluded from the
determination of earnings before goodwill. The provision for income taxes for
the pro forma statements was calculated using the Company's normal 25% tax rate
for the periods presented.

A reconciliation from pro forma net income to the reported results is presented
on the following page.

The format presented above is not in accordance with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles.

In computing pro forma diluted earnings per share for the three month period
ended March 31, 2000, pro forma net income was increased by $2,750 for interest
(net of taxes) on the $345 million convertible notes considered dilutive common
stock equivalents. Common equivalent shares of 3,442 and $1,750 of interest
expense (net of taxes) associated with the $500 million convertible notes were
excluded from the computation of pro forma diluted earnings per share as a
result of their antidilutive effect.

For the three month period ended March 31, 1999, common equivalent shares of
2,530 and $305 of interest expense (net of taxes) associated with the $345
million convertible debentures were excluded from the computation of pro forma
diluted earnings per share as a result of their antidilutive effect.

*     In computing diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended
      March 31, 2000, net income was increased by $2,750 for interest (net of
      taxes) on the $345 million convertible notes considered dilutive common
      stock equivalents. Common equivalent shares of 3,442 and $1,750 of
      interest expense (net of taxes) associated with the $500 million
      convertible notes were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings
      per share as a result of their antidilutive effect. For the three month
      period ended March 31, 1999, common equivalent shares of 2,530 and $305 of
      interest expense (net of taxes) associated with the $345 million
      convertible notes were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings
      per share as a result of their antidilutive effect.
