Management Comments
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
By all measures, second quarter results showed excellent improvement, said Gabi Seligsohn, President and CEO of Nova. In addition, recent increase in business volumes and improved order patterns will enable us to show significant improvement in our financial performance in the second half of the year.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Continued market share gains in both the Stand Alone Optical CD and the IM Copper CMP segments, combined with our effective cost control measures, enabled us to increase revenues and reach breakeven results for the quarter. Looking forward, sales of both our Integrated and Stand Alone solutions are well-positioned for further growth, because they enable cost-effective migration to lower technology nodes, while still using existing process equipment.

This press release provides financial measures that exclude non-cash charges for stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles and impairment charges and are therefore not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Novas performance because they reflect our operational results and enhances managements and investors ability to evaluate Novas performance before charges considered by management to be outside Novas ongoing operating results.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that it is in the best interest of its investors to provide financial information that will facilitate comparison of both historical and future results and allows greater transparency to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A reconciliation of each GAAP to non-GAAP financial measure discussed in this press release is contained in the accompanying financial tables.
