On-wafer testing is a growing
requirement
Identifies and characterizes
performance on the wafer
Enables significantly
improved yield
More cost effective than
packaged test

Appendix


Appendix:  Reconciliations of GAAP to
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this presentation we use the following Non-GAAP financial measures, which we define in
this
Appendix
and
reconcile
to
GAAP
financial
measures
:
EBITDAS
and Adjusted
EBITDAS.
Definitions:
EBITDAS
is defined as operating income from continuing operations before depreciation and
amortization and stock-based compensation. EBITDAS should not be construed as a substitute for
net income or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities (all as determined in accordance
with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing the Company’s operating performance, financial position and
cash flows, as EBITDAS is not defined by GAAP. However, the Company regards EBITDAS as a
complement to net income and other GAAP financial performance measures, including an indirect
measure of operating cash flow.
Adjusted
EBITDAS
is
defined
as
operating
income
from
continuing
operations
before
depreciation
and amortization and stock-based compensation and certain other items (adjustments) such as
restructuring, facility move and project costs, and acquisition related expenses that the Company
believes are not representative of its ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDAS should not
be
construed
as
a
substitute
for
net
income
or
net
cash
provided
by
(used in) operating activities (all
as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing the Company’s operating
performance, financial position and cash flows, as adjusted EBITDAS is not defined by GAAP.
However,
the
Company
regards
adjusted
EBITDAS
as
a
complement
to
net income and other GAAP
financial
performance
measures,
including
an
indirect
measure
of
operating cash flow.
