CYMER REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2011 OPERATING RESULTS

SAN DIEGO, Calif., October 20, 2011 - Cymer, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYMI), the world’s leading supplier of light sources used by chipmakers to create advanced semiconductor chips, today announced operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.

 

   

net income totaled $11.3 million, equal to $0.36 per share (diluted), compared to net income of $20.9 million, equal to $0.70 per share (diluted) in the third quarter of 2010 and net income of $27.7 million, equal to $0.89 per share (diluted) in the second quarter of 2011.

 

   

revenue totaled $128.7 million compared to revenue of $141.7 million in the third quarter of 2010, and revenue of $158.2 million in the second quarter of 2011.

Commenting on third quarter results, Bob Akins, Cymer’s chief executive officer, said, “Our Installed Base Products continue to deliver value to our customers and our revenue from these products remained strong. As anticipated, shipments of deep ultraviolet (DUV) light sources were significantly lower than the prior quarter as chipmakers reduced their capital investments. In the third quarter, we installed two additional 3100 extreme ultraviolet (EUV) sources, and we now have four sources which are exposing wafers at chipmakers. We also shipped our first TCZ Gen 5 system to a leading display manufacturer.”

In the third quarter of 2011, the company shipped 25 light sources, of which 18 were ArF immersion and 7 were KrF, and the company installed 38 DUV light sources at chipmaker and other end user locations. Gross profit was $65.1 million for the third quarter of 2011, yielding a 50.6 percent gross margin. Total operating expenses, which include research and development and selling and administrative expenses, were $51.7 million. Total operating income was $13.4 million or 10.4 percent of revenue. The third quarter effective tax rate was 16 percent. As of September 30, 2011, cash and investments totaled $277 million.

DUV and IBP bookings for the third quarter totaled $123.2 million, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of 0.97. Sixty-four percent of the DUV bookings were ArF immersion and thirty-six percent were KrF. The company ended the quarter with a DUV backlog of $53.8 million. In addition to the DUV backlog, the company earlier in the year announced significant orders for EUV 3300 sources and TCZ systems.

Company Outlook

Commenting on the outlook, Akins stated, “Our Installed Base Products revenue is positioned to grow in the fourth quarter primarily due to installed base growth and continued high gross pulse utilization. We anticipate shipping a similar number of DUV light sources in the fourth quarter as compared to the third quarter; however the mix of shipments is anticipated to contain a greater percentage of KrF sources. As light source demand strengthens, we believe we will continue to be competitively well positioned. Chipmaker demand for EUV continues to be strong as they view EUV technology as the best path toward enabling Moore’s law and scaling of geometries below 20 nanometers. We believe we have identified and are addressing the key EUV source technical challenges facing us and we are working closely with ASML and our key suppliers to drive execution to our source power and performance roadmap. Our investment in EUV source development is substantial and one we view as essential to enable lithography scaling, and which we believe will drive significant long term growth.”

Based on information available at this time, Cymer is providing the following guidance for the fourth quarter of 2011:

 

   

Revenue to be approximately $128 million.

 

   

Gross margin to be approximately 50 percent.

 

   

R&D expenses to be approximately $38.5 million.

 

   

SG&A expenses to be approximately $17.0 million.

 

   

The effective tax rate to be approximately 26 percent.

Cymer’s management will hold a conference call at 2:00 pm (PDT) today, October 20, 2011, to discuss third quarter operating results and fourth quarter 2011 guidance. This press release, the conference call and accompanying slides may be accessed on the investor relations page of the company’s Web site at www.cymer.com.
