RUDOLPH TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1.    Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Rudolph Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “Rudolph”) and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for their fair presentation in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).  Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual amounts could differ materially from reported amounts.  The interim results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year or any future periods.  This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“2014 10-K”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2014 10-K.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Except as set forth below, there were no material changes to the Company’s summary of significant accounting policies as discussed in Note 2 of its 2014 10-K.
The disclosure of the following significant accounting policy has been updated from that as originally presented in Note 2 of the Company’s 2014 10-K.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis, and include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs. The Company reviews and sets standard costs as needed, but at a minimum on an annual basis, at current manufacturing costs in order to approximate actual costs. Demonstration units, which are available for sale, are stated at their manufacturing costs and reserves are recorded to adjust the demonstration units to their net realizable value, if lower than cost.
The Company evaluates inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. The Company establishes inventory reserves when conditions exist that suggest that inventory may be in excess of anticipated demand or is obsolete based upon assumptions about historical and future demand for the Company’s products and market conditions. In addition, inventories are evaluated for potential obsolescence due to the effect of known and anticipated engineering design changes. Once a reserve has been established, it is maintained until the item to which it relates is scrapped or sold.
The disclosure of the following significant accounting policy has been added.
Contingencies and Litigation:
The Company is subject to the possibility of losses from various contingencies, including certain legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims. The Company accrues for a loss contingency when it concludes that the likelihood of a loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. If the Company concludes that loss contingencies that could be material to any one of its financial statements are not probable, but are reasonably possible, or are probable, but cannot be estimated, then the Company discloses the nature of the loss contingencies, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss or a statement that such loss is not reasonably estimable. The Company expenses as incurred the costs of defending legal claims against the Company. The Company does not recognize gain contingencies until realized. See Note 8, “Commitments and Contingencies” for a detailed description.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current financial statement presentation. These amounts include the reclassification of a portion of deferred revenue from Other current liabilities to Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and such amounts were not material to current and prior periods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments.” This standard requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The ASU requires an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. The standard is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is in the process of determining the effect that adoption of ASU 2015-16 will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330), Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This ASU is intended to simplify subsequent measurement of inventory. An entity should measure inventory within a scope of this ASU at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable cost of completion, disposal, and transportation. The standard is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of determining the effect that adoption of ASU 2015-11 will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This standard is intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendment in this ASU requires that debt issuance cost related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The standard is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this new standard will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
In December 2014, the FASB issued ASU No.2014-12, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” The guidance reflects the EITF consensus that an award with a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period (i.e., the employee would be eligible to vest in the award regardless of whether the employee is rendering service on the date the performance target could be achieved) should be treated as a performance condition. That is, the performance target is not reflected in the determination of the grant date fair value of the award. Compensation cost attributable to the period for which requisite service has been rendered would be recognized in the period it becomes probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period would reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and would be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The standard is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this new standard will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 outlines a comprehensive revenue recognition model and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. In July 2015, the FASB deferred for one year the effective date of the new revenue standard, but early adoption will be permitted. The new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. ASU 2014-09 allows for two methods of adoption: (a) “full retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all periods presented, or (b) “modified retrospective” adoption, meaning the cumulative effect of applying ASU 2014-09 is recognized as an adjustment to the 2018 opening retained earnings balance. The Company is in the process of determining the adoption method as well as the effects the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
    
NOTE 2.  Fair Value Measurements
The Company applies a three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurements. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels.  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on management’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s investments classified as Level 2 are valued using observable inputs to quoted market prices, benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. The foreign currency forward contracts are primarily measured based on the foreign currency spot and forward rates quoted by the banks or foreign currency dealers. Available-for-sale debt securities prices are obtained from third party pricing providers, which models prices utilizing the above observable inputs, for each asset class.
Level 3 investments consisted of contingent consideration related to an acquisition for which the Company uses a discounted cash flow model to value investment. The Level 3 assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model for the contingent consideration included projected revenues, estimates of discount rates of 10.2% and timing of cash flows. A significant decrease in the projected revenues or increase in discount rates could result in a significantly lower fair value measurement for the contingent consideration.

See Note 3 for additional discussion regarding the fair value of the Company’s marketable securities.
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The estimated fair value of these obligations is based, primarily, on a market approach, comparing the Company’s interest rates to those rates the Company believes it would reasonably receive upon re-entry into the market. Judgment is required to estimate the fair value, using available market information and appropriate valuation methods.
The Company’s convertible senior notes are not publicly traded. The estimated fair value of the Company’s convertible senior notes was valued using a discounted cash flow model. The Level 3 assumptions, based on data available at the valuation date used in preparing the discounted cash flow model, included estimates of interest rates, timing and amount of cash flows and expected holding periods of the convertible senior notes. The fair value of the contingent interest associated with the convertible senior notes is valued quarterly using the present value under an expected cash flow model incorporating the probabilities of the contingent events occurring.

NOTE 3.   Marketable Securities
The Company has evaluated its investment policies and determined that all of its investment securities are to be classified as available-for-sale.  Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses reported in Stockholders’ Equity under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.”  Realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are included in “Other expense (income)” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.  The Company records other-than-temporary impairment charges for its available-for-sale investments when it intends to sell the securities, it is more-likely-than not that it will be required to sell the securities before a recovery, or when it does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the securities.  The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.
The Company has determined that the gross unrealized losses on its marketable securities at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are temporary in nature. The Company reviews its investment portfolio to identify and evaluate investments that have indications of possible impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is other-than-temporary include the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the cost basis, credit quality and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.

NOTE 4.    Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company, when it considers it to be appropriate, enters into forward contracts to hedge the economic exposures arising from foreign currency denominated transactions. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, these contracts included the future sale of Japanese Yen to purchase U.S. dollars. Derivative instruments are recognized as either prepaid expenses and other current assets or other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are measured at fair value. The foreign currency forward contracts were entered into by the Company’s Japanese subsidiary to economically hedge a portion of certain intercompany obligations. The forward contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes and a decrease in the fair value of $272 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 and an increase in the fair value of $132 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, are recorded within the caption “Other expense (income)” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The dollar equivalent of the U.S. dollar forward contracts and related fair values as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were as follows:

NOTE 7.   Debt Obligations
On July 25, 2011, the Company issued $60,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”) at par. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of July 25, 2011, between the Company and Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, which includes a form of Note. The Notes provide for the payment of

11

interest semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning January 15, 2012, at an annual rate of 3.75% and will mature on July 15, 2016, unless earlier converted or repurchased. The Notes may be converted, under certain circumstances, based on an initial conversion rate of 77.241 shares of Company common stock per $1 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $12.95 per share. Concurrently with the issuance of the Notes, the Company purchased a convertible note hedge and sold a warrant. Each of the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were entered into with an affiliate of the initial purchaser of the Notes. The convertible note hedge is intended to reduce the potential future dilution to the Company’s common stock associated with the conversion of the Notes. However, the warrant transaction will have a dilutive effect on the Company’s earnings per share to the extent that the price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrant. The strike price of the warrant is $17.00 per share subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Notes, including the convertible note hedge and warrant, were $50,249.

NOTE 8.   Commitments and Contingencies
Warranty Reserves
The Company generally provides a warranty on its products for a period of twelve to fifteen months against defects in material and workmanship. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred during the warranty period and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time revenue is recognized. The Company’s estimate is based primarily on historical experience. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Settlements of warranty reserves are generally associated with sales that occurred during the 12 to 15 months prior to the quarter-end and warranty accruals are related to sales during the year.

Legal Matters

12

From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s 2014 10-K reflects the status of the Company’s litigation with Integrated Technology Corporation (“ITC”) and Camtek, Ltd. (“Camtek”). The following reflects the material developments during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 with regard to these matters.

Integrated Technology Corporation v. Rudolph Technologies, Inc., No. CV-06-2182 (PHX-ROS): This matter is fully resolved with the sole exception of the issue of remanded attorney’s fees which were set by the District Court at $3,252. A hearing regarding the Company’s appeal of this order was held on October 6, 2015 and the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals subsequently issued a ruling that the award was improperly established, vacated the amount of the award and remanded the matter back to the Distric Court for a determination of a proper fee award. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses regarding this issue and intends to continue to vigorously prosecute the matter. The $3,252 is held in escrow and is recorded in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2015. The corresponding liability is recorded under the caption “Other current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2015. The Company expects this to be the maximum liability reasonably possible for the attorney’s fees, excluding interest, for this lawsuit with respect to both the pre-August 2007 and the post-2007 August tools which were the subject of this action.

August Technology Corporation and Rudolph Technologies, Inc. v. Camtek, Ltd., No. 05-CV-01396 (JRT/FLN): Subsequent to the District Court’s ruling in the Company’s favor that Camtek’s Falcon tools continue to infringe the Company’s patent under the revised claim construction of the patent determined by the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals, the District Court, on February 9, 2015, issued an Order granting the Company’s Motion for Final Judgment, reinstating the original damages and applying prejudgment interest for a total award of $14,512. In addition, the District Court issued a permanent injunction against Camtek from “making, using, selling and offering to sell any of its Falcon machines and any machines that are colorable imitations thereof in the United States, intended for sale and use within the United States, until the expiration of the ‘6,298 patent,” which is projected to be in 2020. Camtek filed a notice of appeal of the District Court’s Order on March 11, 2015 and the appeal is currently pending.

August Technology Corporation and Rudolph Technologies, Inc. v. Camtek, Ltd., No. 10-CV-2202 (MJD/FLN): With regard to the Company’s subsequently filed lawsuit against Camtek alleging infringement of its U.S. Patent No. 7,729,528, this lawsuit continues to be stayed pending resolution of a re-examination petition filed by Camtek with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Rudolph Technologies, Inc. v. Camtek, Ltd., No. 15-CV-1246 (ADM/BRT): On March 12, 2015, the Company filed and served on Camtek a complaint asserting infringement of Rudolph ‘6,298 patent by Camtek’s Eagle product with the U.S. District Court in Minnesota. On April 21, 2015, the Company filed a Motion for Preliminary Injunction to enjoin Camtek’s sale of the Eagle device in the United States which is currently pending. On or about April 20, 2015, Camtek filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court in New Jersey seeking a declaratory judgment challenging the jurisdiction and venue of the Minnesota court and seeking to have the court find that the ‘6,298 patent is not infringed and, in the alternative, that the ‘6,298 patent is invalid. On August 26, 2015, the U.S. District Court in Minnesota ruled that Minnesota jurisdiction was appropriate for this matter while at the same time denying the Company’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction. Camtek’s complaint filed in the U.S. District Court in New Jersey was subsequently dismissed.

The income tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was computed based on the Company’s annual forecast of profit by jurisdiction and forecasted effective tax rate for the year. The changes in the Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period for the prior year are primarily due to the mix of forecasted earnings by jurisdictions and the availability of utilizing the Section 199 manufacturing deduction in 2015 compared to a book loss in 2014 and the impact of foreign tax expense in excess of foreign tax credits generated.
The Company currently has a partial valuation allowance recorded for certain foreign and state net operating loss and credit carryforwards where the realizability of such deferred tax assets is substantially in doubt. Each quarter, the Company assesses the likelihood that it will be able to recover its deferred tax assets. The Company considers available evidence, both positive and negative, including prudent and feasible tax planning strategies and forecasted earnings in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. As a result of the Company’s analysis, it concluded that it is more likely than not that a portion of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, the Company continues to provide a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets. The Company continues to monitor available evidence and may reverse some or all of the remaining valuation allowance in future periods, if appropriate. The Company has a recorded valuation allowance against certain of its deferred tax assets of $1,910 as of September 30, 2015 and $2,445 as of December 31, 2014.

NOTE 12. Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges

During 2014, the Company implemented restructuring initiatives designed to reduce the Company’s cost structure. In connection with this strategy, the Company reduced its global headcount by approximately 9.0% and closed its facility in Mainz, Germany relocating the operations to its facilities in Snoqualmie, Washington and Bloomington, Minnesota, which was completed as of March 31, 2015.

The Company anticipates the remaining restructuring obligation to be paid by December 31, 2015.

NOTE 13.   Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner and also gives effect to all dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered to be anti-dilutive. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, these shares were not included in calculating diluted earnings per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the weighted average number of stock options and restricted stock units excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share were 238 and 0, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, all outstanding stock options and restricted stock units totaling 654 and 1,247, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because the effect in the periods would be anti-dilutive. Diluted earnings per share-weighted average shares outstanding do not include any effect resulting from assumed conversion of the Notes and warrants as their impact would be anti-dilutive.
The Company’s basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share amounts are as follows:

NOTE 16.   Share Repurchase Authorization
In 2008, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 3,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with no established end date. The authorization allows for repurchases to be made in the open market or through negotiated transactions from time to time. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had repurchased 1,353 shares of common stock. In January 2015, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of an additional 1,353 shares, bringing the total repurchase authorization back to 3,000 shares as of such date. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company repurchased 468 and 1,401 shares of common stock, respectively. At September 30, 2015, there were 1,599 shares available for

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported. Certain of these significant accounting policies are considered to be critical accounting policies, as defined below.
A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Specifically, these policies have the following attributes: (1) we are required to make judgments and assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and (2) different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, could have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations.

17

Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. In addition, management is periodically faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within its control and will not be known for prolonged periods of time. Certain of these uncertainties are discussed in our 2014 10-K in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Based on a critical assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes that our condensed consolidated financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and provide a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations.
For more information, please see our critical accounting policies as previously disclosed in our 2014 10-K and updated in Note 1 of this form 10-Q.
See Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q regarding the impact of recent accounting pronouncements on our financial position and results of operations.
Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014
We are a worldwide leader in the design, development, manufacture and support of high-performance control metrology, defect inspection, advanced packaging lithography, thin film metrology, and data analysis systems and software used by microelectronic device manufacturers. We provide process and yield management solutions used in both wafer processing and final manufacturing through a family of standalone systems for macro-defect inspection, lithography, probe card test and analysis, and transparent and opaque thin film measurements. All Rudolph systems feature sophisticated software and production-worthy automation. Rudolph systems are backed by worldwide customer support.
Rudolph’s business is affected by the annual spending patterns of our customers on semiconductor capital equipment. The amount that our customers devote to capital equipment spending depends on a number of factors, including general worldwide economic conditions as well as other economic drivers such as personal computer, tablet, cell phone, other personal electronic devices and automotive sales. Current forecasts by industry analysts for the semiconductor device manufacturing industry project a year-over-year decrease in capital spending of 0-10% for 2015. Our revenues and profitability tend to follow the trends of certain segments within the semiconductor market. We experienced an increase of 29.6% in our revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year resulting from increased demand for our products within these segments. We monitor capital equipment spending through announced capital spending plans by our customers and monthly-published industry data such as the book-to-bill ratio. The book-to-bill ratio is a 3-month running statistic that compares bookings or orders placed with capital equipment suppliers to billings or shipments. A book-to-bill ratio above 1.0 shows that semiconductor device equipment manufacturers are ordering equipment at a pace that exceeds the equipment suppliers’ shipments for the period. The 3-month rolling average North American semiconductor equipment book-to-bill ratio was 1.1 for the month of September 2015, an increase from book-to-bill ratio of 1.0 for the month of June 2015. The book-to-bill ratio was 1.0 for the month of December 2014.
Historically, a significant portion of our revenues in each quarter and year has been derived from sales to relatively few customers, and we expect this trend to continue. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 and for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, sales to customers that individually represented at least five percent of our revenues accounted for 33.0%, 23.9%, 41.6%, and 50.9% of our revenues, respectively.
We do not have purchase contracts with any of our customers that obligate them to continue to purchase our products, and they could cease purchasing products from us at any time. A delay in purchase or a cancellation by any of our large customers could cause quarterly revenues to vary significantly. In addition, during a given quarter, a significant portion of our revenues may be derived from the sale of a relatively small number of systems. The following table lists the average selling price for our systems:

System
 
Average Selling Price Per System
Macro-defect inspection and probe card and test analysis
 
$250,000 to $1.7 million
Transparent film measurement
 
$800,000 to $1.2 million
Opaque film measurements
 
$1.0 million to $1.8 million
Lithography steppers
 
$3.0 million to $8.0 million

A significant portion of our revenues has been derived from customers outside of the United States.  A substantial portion of our international sales are denominated in US dollars. We expect that revenues generated from customers outside of the United States will continue to account for a significant percentage of our revenues. 

18

The sales cycle for our systems typically ranges from six to twenty-four months, and can be longer when our customers are evaluating new technology. Due to the length of these cycles, we invest significantly in research and development and sales and marketing in advance of generating revenues related to these investments.
Revenues. Our revenues are primarily derived from the sale of our systems, services, spare parts and software licensing.  Our revenues were $58.6 million and $170.6 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, compared to $47.0 million and $131.6 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of 24.8% and 29.6%, respectively.

Total systems and software revenue increased 35.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 due to an increase in demand for our products in advanced packaging and back-end systems. Year-over-year there was increased customer demand for our inspection systems which contributed to a higher number of inspection systems sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in the prior year. As a result, inspection systems revenue increased $32.5 million for the 2015 period compared to the 2014 period. The number of metrology systems sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was higher compared to the same period in the prior year, resulting in an increase in metrology systems revenue of $8.1 million for the 2015 period. Lithography system revenue decreased $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in lithography system revenue resulted from the sale of a JetStep G in the prior year which has a higher average selling price than our other lithography systems. The data analysis and review software revenue increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to increased sales in licensing revenue. As a result, the increase in total systems and software revenue for the 2015 period was caused by product sales volume and product mix of units shipped rather than pricing changes as the average selling price of similarly configured systems has been consistent across the year-over-year periods. Systems revenue generated by our latest product releases and major enhancements in each of our product families amounted to 69% of total revenues for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, compared to 67% and 61% of total revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014.  The year-over-year increase in total parts and services revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is primarily due to increased spending by our customers on system upgrades and repairs of existing systems. Parts and services revenues are generated from part sales, maintenance service contracts, system upgrades, as well as time and material billable service calls. 
Deferred revenues of $8.7 million are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets within the captions “Other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities” at September 30, 2015 and primarily consist of $2.7 million for outstanding deliverables and $6.0 million for deferred maintenance agreements.
Gross Profit. Our gross profit has been and will continue to be affected by a variety of factors, including manufacturing efficiencies, excess and obsolete inventory write-offs, pricing by competitors or suppliers, new product introductions, production volume, customization and reconfiguration of systems, international and domestic sales mix, and parts and service margins. Our gross profit was $31.9 million and $92.8 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, compared to $25.0 million and $69.8 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014.  Our gross profit represented 54.5% and 54.4% of our revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 53.2% and 53.1% of our revenues for the same periods in the prior year.  The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year is primarily due to an increase in product sales volume and product mix.

19

Operating Expenses. Major components of operating expenses include research and development as well as selling, general and administrative expenses.     
Research and Development.  Our research and development expense was $10.0 million and $30.9 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, compared to $9.6 million and $30.5 million for the same periods in the prior year.  Research and development expense represented 17.1% and 18.1% of our revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, compared to 20.5% and 23.2% of revenues for the prior year periods.  Research and development expenses increased for both the three and nine month periods year-over-year due to decreased compensation and project costs.
Selling, General and Administrative.     Our selling, general and administrative expense was $9.4 million and $33.4 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, compared to $10.3 million and $42.3 million for the same periods in the prior year.  Selling, general and administrative expense represented 16.0% and 19.6% of our revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, compared to 21.9% and 32.2% of our revenues for the same periods in the prior year.  The year-over-year dollar decrease for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 in selling, general and administrative expense was primarily due to lower litigation expenses, which are driven by the payment of the 2014 final judgment awarded to ITC, partially offset by an increase in share-based compensation costs as a result of vesting in the first quarter of 2015.
Other (Income) Expense. Our other (income) expense consists of foreign currency exchange (gains) losses, net. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded other expense of $99 thousand, and $372 thousand, respectively. The year-over-year dollar decrease in other expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 was primarily due to strengthening of the U.S. dollar compared to local currencies at our foreign operations.
Income Taxes.  We recorded an income tax provision of $3.7 million and $7.6 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, respectively. Our effective tax rate of 33.4% differs from the statutory rate of 35% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to a projected Section 199 manufacturing deduction. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, we recorded an income tax provision of $3.8 million and an income tax benefit of $3.1 million, respectively.
We currently have a partial valuation allowance recorded for certain foreign and state loss and credit carryforwards where the realizability of such deferred tax assets is substantially in doubt. Each quarter we assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our deferred tax assets primarily relating to state research and development credits. We consider available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. As a result of our analysis, we concluded that it is more likely than not that a portion of our net deferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, we continue to provide a valuation allowance against certain net deferred tax assets. We continue to closely monitor available evidence and may reverse some or all of the valuation allowance in future periods, if appropriate.
Litigation. As discussed in Part I, Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” of our 2014 10-K and Note 8 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims, which include, among other things, our on-going litigation with ITC and with Camtek.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2015, we had $155.3 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and $200.9 million in working capital.  At December 31, 2014, we had $157.0 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and $255.4 million in working capital. The decrease in working capital from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015 is primarily attributed to the reclassification of our convertible senior notes, which mature July 2016, from a long term to a short term liability.
Operating activities provided $20.7 million in net cash and cash equivalents for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015.  The net cash and cash equivalents provided by operating activities during the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 was primarily a result of net income adjusted to exclude the effect of non-cash operating charges of $31.0 million, partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $10.3 million. Operating activities used $2.0 million in net cash and cash equivalents for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014. The net cash and cash equivalents used by operating activities during the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 was primarily a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities of $11.4 million and a net loss, adjusted to exclude the effect of non-cash operating charges of $9.4 million.
Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities during the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 of $13.5 million was due to the purchase of marketable securities of $183.7 million, purchase of intangible assets of $3.0 million and capital expenditures of $2.2 million, partially offset by the proceeds from sales of marketable securities of $175.5 million.  Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities during the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 of $28.8 million

20

was due to the purchase of marketable securities of $172.3 million and capital expenditures of $1.4 million, partially offset by the proceeds from sales of marketable securities of $145.0 million.
Net cash and cash equivalents used in financing activities during the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 of $17.0 million was due primarily to the repurchase of shares of our common stock, partially offset by tax benefit and proceeds from sales of shares through share-based compensation plans. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 financing activities used $2.3 million from the repurchases of shares of our common stock, partially offset by tax benefit and proceeds from sales of shares through share-based compensation plans.
In July 2008, our Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 3.0 million shares of our common stock with no established end date. The authorization allows for repurchases to be made in the open market or through negotiated transactions from time to time. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had repurchased 1.4 million shares of common stock. In January 2015, our Board of Directors authorized the purchase of an additional 1.4 million shares, bringing the total repurchase authorization back to 3.0 million shares as of such date. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company repurchased 0.5 million and 1.4 million shares of common stock, respectively. At September 30, 2015, 1.6 million shares remained available for future stock repurchase under this repurchase authorization. Shares of common stock purchased under the share repurchase authorization are being retired. For further information, see Note 16 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
From time to time, we evaluate whether to acquire new or complementary businesses, products and/or technologies. We may fund all or a portion of the purchase price of these acquisitions in cash, stock, or a combination of cash and stock. For example on September 29, 2015, the Company announced that it purchased Stella Alliance, LLC, a Massachusetts-based semiconductor inspection technology intellectual property (IP) portfolio company.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the timing and amount of our revenues and our investment decisions, which will affect our ability to generate additional cash. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for working capital and capital expenditures for the next twelve months. Thereafter, if cash generated from operations and financing activities is insufficient to satisfy our working capital requirements, we may seek additional funding through bank borrowings, sales of securities or other means. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise any such capital or secure any such additional funding on terms acceptable to us or at all.


Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate and Credit Market Risk
We are exposed to changes in interest rates and market liquidity including our investments in certain available-for-sale securities. Our available-for-sale securities consist of fixed and variable rate income investments (municipal notes, municipal bonds and corporate bonds). We continually monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates, market liquidity and credit ratings of issuers for our available-for-sale securities. It is possible that we are at risk if interest rates, market liquidity or credit ratings of issuers change in an unfavorable direction. The magnitude of any gain or loss will be a function of the difference between the fixed or variable rate of the financial instrument and the market rate and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected. Based on a sensitivity analysis performed on our financial investments held as of September 30, 2015, an immediate adverse change of 10% in interest rates (e.g. 3.00% to 3.30%) would result in an immaterial decrease in the fair value of our available-for-sale securities and would not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Foreign Currency Risk
We have branch operations in Taiwan, Singapore and South Korea and wholly-owned subsidiaries in Europe, China and Japan.  Our international subsidiaries and branches operate primarily using local functional currencies.  The intercompany transactions denominated in U.S. dollars appearing on the financial statements of the subsidiaries and branches are remeasured at each quarter-end resulting in gains and losses which are reflected in net income.  A hypothetical 10% appreciation or depreciation in the U.S. dollar relative to the reporting currencies of our foreign operations at September 30, 2015 would have affected the foreign-currency-denominated non-operating expenses of our foreign operations by approximately $1.4 million. We cannot accurately predict future exchange rates or the overall impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
A substantial portion of our international sales are denominated in U.S. dollars with the exception of Japan and, as a result, we have relatively little exposure to foreign currency exchange risk with respect to these sales. Substantially all our sales in Japan are denominated in Japanese yen. From time to time, we may enter into forward exchange contracts to economically hedge a portion of, but not all, existing and anticipated foreign currency denominated transactions expected to occur within 12

21

months. The change in fair value of the forward contracts is recognized in “Other expense (income)” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for each reporting period. As of September 30, 2015, we had eleven forward contracts outstanding with a total notional contract value of $3.3 million. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. 
Scope of the Controls Evaluation
The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of the controls’ objectives and design, our implementation of the controls and the effect of the controls on the information generated for use in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and confirm that appropriate corrective actions, if any, including process improvements, were being undertaken. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions of management, including the CEO and CFO, concerning the effectiveness of the controls can be reported in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K. Many of the components of our disclosure controls and procedures are also evaluated on an ongoing basis by other personnel in our accounting, finance and legal functions. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures and to modify them on an ongoing basis as necessary. A control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Conclusions
As of September 30, 2015, an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the CEO and CFO. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
In July 2008, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 3.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock with no established end date. The authorization allows for repurchases to be made in the open market or through negotiated transactions from time to time. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had repurchased 1.4 million shares of common stock. In January 2015, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of an additional 1.4 million shares, bringing the total repurchase authorization back to 3.0 million shares. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company repurchased 0.5 million and 1.4 million shares of common stock, respectively.  At September 30, 2015, there were 1.6 million shares available for future stock repurchases under this repurchase authorization. Shares of common stock purchased under the share repurchase authorization are being retired.
In addition to the Company’s share repurchase program, it withholds common stock shares associated with net share settlements to cover tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock unit awards under the Company’s equity incentive program. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015,  the Company withheld one thousand and 0.2 million shares through net share settlements, respectively.  For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 net share settlements cost ten thousand and $1.9 million, respectively. Please refer to Note 9 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion regarding the Company’s equity incentive plan.
