KLA-Tencor Reports Fiscal 2009 Second Quarter Results

MILPITAS, CA | Posted on January 29th, 2009

"The continuing worldwide economic slowdown drove sharp reductions in our customers' capital budgets, and KLA-Tencor experienced a greater-than-expected decline in orders and revenue at the end of the December quarter, including service revenue," said Rick Wallace, president and chief executive officer of KLA-Tencor. "In light of the current economic environment and our limited visibility regarding future market conditions, KLA-Tencor has been taking aggressive steps to reduce operating expenses and drive structural efficiencies across our organization, while maintaining a high level of investment in research and development, as well as our focus on customer service. We are confident these actions will allow us to sustain our technological and market leadership during this severe downturn and position us well when industry conditions improve, while protecting our balance sheet."

a	�	Acquisition related charges include amortization of intangible assets, inventory fair value adjustments, and in-process research and development associated with acquisitions. Management believes that the expense associated with the amortization of acquisition related intangible assets is appropriate to be excluded because a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have short lives, and exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both KLA-Tencor�s newly acquired and long-held businesses. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude inventory fair value adjustments, in-process research and development and gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts associated with business acquisitions as they are not indicative of ongoing operating results and therefore limit comparability. Management believes excluding these items helps investors compare our operating performance with our results in prior periods as well as with the performance of other companies.
		�
b		Restructuring, severance and other includes gains and costs associated with the company�s facilities divestment program, reductions in force, entry into a severance and consulting agreement during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 with its former president/chief operating officer, and gains from sale of facilities. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude those items as they are not indicative of ongoing operating results and therefore limit comparability. Management believes excluding these items helps investors compare our operating performance with our results in prior periods as well as with the performance of other companies.
		�
c		Restatement related charges include compensation related to reimbursement payments by KLA-Tencor to non-executive employees for penalty taxes under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as well as legal and other expenses related to the stock option investigation, shareholder litigation and related matters. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude those items as they are not indicative of ongoing operating results and therefore limit comparability. Management believes excluding these items helps investors compare our operating performance with our results in prior periods as well as with the performance of other companies.
		�
d		Goodwill and intangible asset impairment includes non-cash expense recognized as a result of the company�s annual testing for goodwill impairment performed in the second quarter of every fiscal year and testing for intangible asset impairment driven by certain macroeconomic and company-specific triggering events, as well as the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets as a result of discontinuing acquired products and making acquired products available for sale. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude those items as they are not indicative of ongoing operating results and therefore limit comparability. Management believes excluding these items helps investors compare our operating performance with our results in prior periods as well as with the performance of other companies.
		�
e		Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments includes the income tax effects of the excluded items noted above. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude the tax effects of the items noted above in order to present a more meaningful measure of non-GAAP net income.
		�
f		Non recurring tax item includes the U.S. tax impact associated with the implementation of our global manufacturing strategy and a benefit from revision of the amount of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries considered to be permanently reinvested outside the United States. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude these items as they are not indicative of ongoing operating results and therefore limit comparability. Management believes excluding these items helps investors compare our operating performance with our results in prior periods as well as with the performance of other companies.
