than non GAAP gross margins of 20.6 percent in the first

Non GAAP adjustments for the second quarter of 2006 (and, to the

stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets related to
an acquisition, expenses attributable to the review of prior stock
option grants and related withholding tax expenses, and expenses
attributable to the previously planned securities offering. A
reconciliation of all non GAAP results to the comparable GAAP results
is set forth below.
Commenting on the results, Dov Moran, President and Chief
Executive Officer of msystems, said, "I am pleased with our results
for the second quarter of 2006, which were better than we had
anticipated. I am particularly pleased with our performance in the
mobile market. The growth we are experiencing in mDOC sales reflects
the considerable long term growth opportunity of the mobile market."
He continued, "In early May, we announced our revolutionary x4
technology, designed to enable the utilization of 4-bit/cell NAND
flash, which was previously considered to be a practical and physical
impossibility. x4 is the culmination of over 15 years of work and
innovation in flash memory at msystems. During this time, we
consistently introduced new technologies and products, and shaped the
markets in which we operate. I am confident that completion of our
pending transaction with SanDisk Corporation will further strengthen
our innovation, technology and product offering, and will enable us to
better realize the growth potential of the flash memory market."

msystems' management will host a conference call to discuss its
second quarter financial results at 10:00 a.m. EDT today, August 7,
2006. In light of the pending transaction with SanDisk, there will be
