Aviza Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVZA), a supplier of advanced
semiconductor capital equipment and process technologies for the
global semiconductor industry and related markets, today reported
results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, which ended on
June 27, 2008. FISCAL YEAR 2008 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Shipments for the quarter were $34.9 million. Net sales of $33.5
million were within the range of the Company�s guidance of $32
million - $37 million for the quarter. Gross margin improved to
32.9 percent from the second quarter. Net loss for the quarter was
$5.6 million, or ($0.26) per share. Adjusted net loss was $3.6
million, or ($0.16) per share. �We are pleased with the direction
Aviza has taken following our Company�s recent restructuring,� said
Jerry Cutini, Aviza's president and chief executive officer. �Our
improved business activity reflects our shift to focus on growth
market segments with our single-wafer products, which we believe
will provide a better long-term financial profile for the Company.
Over 90% of our system bookings for the June quarter were for
single-wafer products, which demonstrates the success of our
strategy.� Cutini concluded, �We feel confident that the new
direction Aviza has taken has put the Company on a path toward
improved financial performance.� FORECAST � FISCAL 2008 FOURTH
QUARTER ENDING SEPTEMBER 26, 2008 Aviza�s guidance for the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2008 reflects an anticipated improvement over the
results for the third fiscal quarter, and is predicated on the
Company�s continued focus on a shift in its product mix. Aviza
expects that fourth quarter net sales will be in the range of $35
million to $40 million, with an adjusted net loss in the range of
approximately $3.0 million to adjusted net income of $100,000.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES Aviza uses non-GAAP financial measures
that are not intended to be used in lieu of GAAP presentations, but
are provided because we believe that they provide additional
information with respect to the performance of our fundamental
business activities and are also used by securities analysts,
investors and other interested parties to evaluate our business on
a comparable basis to other companies. The two non-GAAP financial
measures that we use are (i) Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and (ii)
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share. We believe that Adjusted Net
Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share provide
investors with useful information about our operating results. We
use Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per
Share to review and assess our operating performance. Adjusted Net
Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share also allow
us to compare our operating results with corresponding prior
periods as well as with the operating results of other companies in
our industry. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is a non-GAAP financial
measure that represents GAAP Net Income (Loss) excluding the
following items: stock-based compensation, amortization expense,
depreciation expense, net interest expense, restructuring and other
one-time charges, income taxes and net other (income) expense. As
we have substantial net operating loss carryforwards, we have not
included the impact of additional income tax provisions in this
calculation. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share is a non-GAAP
financial measure that represents Adjusted Net Income (as defined
above) divided by weighted average number of shares outstanding for
the period. A reconciliation of our Adjusted Net Income (Loss) to
GAAP Net Income (Loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure,
is provided in the attached table. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share have limitations as analytical
tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a
substitute for net income (loss), earnings per share and other
consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with
GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on
our GAAP results and using Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted
Net Income (Loss) Per Share as supplemental information. Unless
otherwise specified, all references in this press release to
financial information are prepared in accordance with accounting
principals generally accepted in the United States. CONFERENCE CALL
