MARVELL(R) TECHNOLOGY GROUP LTD. REPORTS
RECORD FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2004 RESULTS

Sunnyvale, CA. (May 22, 2003) - Marvell(R) Technology Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: MRVL),
the technology leader in the development of extreme broadband communications and
storage solutions, today reported financial results for its first fiscal quarter
ended May 3, 2003.

Net revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 was a record $168.3 million, an
increase of 70% over net revenue of $98.8 million for the first quarter of
fiscal 2003 and a 12% sequential increase from net revenue of $150.8 million for
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. Net income under generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) was $4.4 million, or $0.03 per share (diluted), for
the first quarter of fiscal 2004, compared with net loss under GAAP of $30.9
million, or $0.26 per share (diluted), for the first quarter of fiscal 2003.

Marvell reports net income (loss) and basic and diluted net income (loss) per
share in accordance with GAAP and additionally on a non-GAAP basis, referred to
as pro forma. Pro forma net income, where applicable, excludes the effect of
acquisition-related expenses, amortization of stock-based compensation and
charges related to facilities consolidation. Pro forma net income was $24.5
million, or $0.19 per share (diluted), for the first quarter of fiscal 2004,
compared with pro forma net income of $10.5 million, or $0.08 per share
(diluted), for the first quarter of fiscal 2003. These non-GAAP measures should
be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the results prepared
in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to pro forma
net income is included in the financial statements portion of this release as
well as on our website in the Investors section at www.marvell.com.

Marvell's management believes the non-GAAP information is useful because it can
enhance the understanding of the Company's ongoing economic performance and
Marvell therefore uses pro forma reporting internally to evaluate and manage the
Company's operations. Marvell has chosen to provide this information to
investors to enable them to perform comparisons of operating results in a manner
similar to how the Company analyzes its operating results.

"Q1 was an outstanding quarter for Marvell," stated Dr. Sehat Sutardja,
Marvell's President and CEO. "Our 12% sequential growth in quarterly revenue was
our twenty-second consecutive quarter of revenue growth. Marvell's revenue
growth is being driven by the continued adoption of Gigabit Ethernet and our
integrated system-on-chip storage solutions. Bookings were very strong during
the quarter and we enter Q2 with strong momentum."


Marvell will be conducting a conference call today at 1:45 p.m. PST to discuss
its first quarter fiscal 2004 financial results. To listen to the conference
call, investors can dial (706) 679-0800 approximately fifteen minutes prior to
