MATTSON TECHNOLOGY, INC. REPORTS RESULTS FOR
THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2015
FREMONT, Calif. - JULY 30, 2015 - Mattson Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: MTSN), a leading supplier of advanced process equipment used to manufacture semiconductors, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 28, 2015.

Business Highlights:
Net revenue for the second quarter of 2015 was in-line with previously issued guidance at $43.3 million.
Gross margin in the second quarter of 2015 was 37 percent, essentially flat with the first quarter of 2015 and in-line with previously issued guidance.
Net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $2.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, representing the eighth consecutive profitable quarter on a non-GAAP basis.

“I am proud of our success with the continued collaboration with our customers on meeting their technological challenges in manufacturing leading edge devices," noted Fusen Chen, Mattson Technology's President and Chief Executive Officer. "The collaboration with our customers is evidenced, in part, from recent announcements regarding shipments of our Millios system in each of the last six quarters, the release of our SupremaTM XP for high volume production at multiple memory fabrication facilities and the shipment of our 100th plasma etch system.”

Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Net revenue for the second quarter of 2015 was $43.3 million, a decrease of $14.9 million or 26 percent, as compared to net revenue of $58.3 million in the first quarter of 2015, and up slightly from net revenue of $42.0 million reported in the second quarter of 2014.
Gross margin in the second quarter of 2015 was 37 percent, essentially flat as compared to the first quarter of 2015, and a 5 percentage point improvement compared to 32 percent gross margin in the second quarter of 2014.
Total operating expense was $13.3 million in the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of $0.7 million or 5 percent, as compared to operating expense of $14.1 million in the first quarter of 2015, and an increase of $2.1 million or 19 percent, as compared to total operating expense of $11.2 million in the second quarter of 2014. Excluding restructuring charges of $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2014, non-GAAP operating expense was $11.1 million.





Net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $2.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $6.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2015, and net income of $1.9 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2014. Due to the immateriality of restructuring and other charges in the second quarter of 2014, and the absence of restructuring and other charges in the first and second quarters of 2015, there is no difference between GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share for these periods.

Conference Call
On Thursday, July 30, 2015, at 3:00 p.m. Pacific Time (6:00 p.m. Eastern Time), Mattson Technology will hold a conference call to review the following topics: 2015 second quarter financial results, current business conditions, the near-term business outlook and guidance for the third quarter of 2015. The conference call will be simultaneously webcast at www.mattson.com under the "Investors" section. To access the live conference call, please dial (877) 430-4657.

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 income per share exclude amounts listed as restructuring and other charges. Management uses non-GAAP operating expenses and net income per 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. The Company did not have any restructuring and other charges during the first or second quarters of 2015, and restructuring and other charges in the second quarter of 2014 were $0.1 million.
