Flip Chip/Wire Bond Process Shift Is Another Revenue Opportunity
• Move to <20 nanometer can only be accomplished by use of flip chip die bonding vs. wire bonding process
• Flip chip revenue represents only 26% currently of total potential market of $1.0 billion
• Expected to gain share rapidly over next 6 years vs. wire bonding (4.4% CAGR delta) as per VLSI
• Growth rates could accelerate depending on adoption rates by key IDMs/subcons

Materials Cost Reduction Is Also a Key Priority
• Qualify and Select Asian Vendors• 50% of the way there
Supply Chain Actions
• Redesign products• Increase standardization of systems
• Component parts• Modules
Development Actions
+5% Gross Margin Upside
• Material costs represent approximately 45% of revenue• Shift to Asia centric supply chain:
• Reduces transport, inventory costs and obsolescence• Improves cycle time and ramping flexibility
• Management Board reviews progress weekly component by component
30February 2015
Partially Achieved Through Common Parts Product Redesign
• Development efforts underway to redesign die attach and packaging systems to increasecommon parts utilized per system
• Benefits: Lower unit cost, improved working capital mgt, shorter cycle times
• Anticipated completion date: Winter 2015/16
• Magazine handler• Wafer gripper• Dispenser• Wafer table• Wafer Cassette Handler• Die Ejector• Control Platform

• Quarterly revenue/order patterns show cyclicality of semiconductor business :• Three cycles past 3 years• Short term patterns due to customer
caution and increased seasonality • 2014 year end shows higher base line
orders than previous years
• Gross margins have improved despite cyclicality :• Increased scalability of production model• Shift to higher margin systems• Lower unit costs due to:
• Asian production transfer• Reduction in European personnel• Favorable USD/euro in H2-14
• Product mix shift to higher margin advanced packaging systems has aided gross margin development :• Multi module + flip chip die attach• Ultra thin molding systems• Drivers: mobile internet, intelligent auto
components, IOT and new devices• Exit from lower margin plating, wire
bonding and packaging systems
