Tables

Safe Harbor

To the extent that this presentation discusses expectations or otherwise

makes statements about the future, such statements are forward-looking

and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause

actual results to differ materially from the statements made.

These items include the risk factors discussed in the Business Description

and Management's Discussion and Analysis sections of Veeco's Annual

Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and

subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form

8-K. Veeco does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-

looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances after the date

of such statements.

Note On Reconciliation Tables

These tables include financial measures adjusted for the impact of certain items; these financial measures are

therefore not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These Non-

GAAP financial measures exclude items such as: share-based compensation expense; charges relating to

restructuring initiatives; non-cash asset impairments; certain other non-operating gains and losses; and

acquisition-related items such as transaction costs, non-cash amortization of acquired intangible assets, and

incremental transaction-related compensation.

These Non-GAAP financial measures may be different from Non-GAAP financial measures used by other

companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of

financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. By excluding these items, Non-GAAP financial

measures are intended to facilitate meaningful comparisons to historical operating results, competitors' operating

results, and estimates made by securities analysts. Management is evaluated on key performance metrics

including adjusted EBITDA, which is used to determine management incentive compensation as well as to

forecast future periods.

These Non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency of

supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, similar

Non-GAAP financial measures have historically been reported to investors; the inclusion of comparable numbers

provides consistency in financial reporting. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the Non-GAAP

financial measures used in this news release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
