| |

“This year was pivotal for Mattson, as increased spending by our customers and market share gains resulted in a 49 percent increase in revenue from the prior year," noted Fusen Chen, Mattson Technology's President and Chief Executive Officer. "This growth in revenue, coupled with the operating leverage achieved from the restructuring activities completed in 2013, led to a profitable 2014, with the fourth quarter marking our sixth consecutive profitable quarter on a non-GAAP basis.”
Fourth Quarter 2014 Financial Results
Net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2014 was $54.7 million, representing an increase of $16.3 million, or 42 percent, compared to net revenue of $38.4 million in the third quarter of 2014 and an increase of $14.0 million, or 34 percent, compared to net revenue of $40.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2014 was approximately 33 percent, a 1 percentage point decrease compared to the 34 percent gross margin reported in the third quarter of 2014, and a slight increase as compared to the 32 percent gross margin reported in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Total operating expense was $13.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of $0.6 million, or 5 percent, compared to $12.5 million of total operating expense in the third quarter of 2014, and an increase of $1.9 million, or 17 percent, compared to $11.1 million of total operating expense in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Excluding restructuring and other charges, non-GAAP operating expense was $13.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, which represents an increase of $0.9 million, or 7 percent, compared to $12.2 million in the third quarter of 2014, and an increase of $1.9 million or 17 percent, compared to $11.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. There were $0.3 million in restructuring and other charges in the third quarter of 2014. Due to the absence of restructuring and other charges in the fourth quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013, there is no difference between GAAP and non-GAAP operating expense in these periods.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $5.0 million, representing net income of $0.07 per diluted share. This compares to a net income of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2014, and a net income of $2.5 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, as reported in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Excluding restructuring and other charges, non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.07 in the fourth quarter of 2014. This compares with a non-GAAP net income of $0.01 and $0.04 per diluted share as reported in the third quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013, respectively. Due to the absence of restructuring charges in the fourth quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013, there is no difference between GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share for these periods.
Fiscal Year 2014 Financial Results

Total operating expense was $48.7 million in 2014, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1 percent, compared to $48.4 million of total operating expense in 2013.
Excluding restructuring and other charges, non-GAAP operating expense was $48.3 million for 2014, which represents an increase of $3.5 million, or 8 percent, compared to $44.8 million in 2013. Restructuring and other charges for 2014 and 2013 were $0.4 million and $3.7 million, respectively.
Net income for 2014 was $9.9 million, representing net income of $0.13 per diluted share. This compares to a net loss of $11.0 million, or a $0.19 net loss per share, in 2013.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) results, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company's non-GAAP results for total operating expenses and net loss per share exclude amounts listed as restructuring and other charges in the accompanying tables. Management uses non-GAAP operating expenses and net income/loss per basic and diluted share to evaluate the Company's operating and financial results. The Company believes the presentation of non-GAAP results is useful to investors for analyzing business trends and comparing performance to prior periods, along with enhancing the investors' ability to view the Company's results from management's perspective. Restructuring and other charges in the fourth quarter of 2014, third quarter of 2014, and fourth quarter of 2013 were zero, $0.3 million, and zero, respectively. Restructuring and other charges were $0.4 million and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
