Trends by sector

Flash is starting volume manufacturing using immersion
in early 2007

DRAM healthy growth in capacity expansion, no
overheating observed

Foundries invest anticipating growth in 2007, utilization
in factories is bottoming

IDM normal investment level supporting shrink including
immersion for R&D

/ Slide 26

 

2007 Outlook

Industry Analysts forecast average 10% IC unit growth in
2007 and about € 5.5 billion ($ 6.8 Billion) litho investment in
2007 (source: Gartner Dataquest and VLSI Research)

ASML’s record current backlog of € 2.1 billion suggests
strong H1 2007, sustained by planned new Flash lines,
strong DRAM capacity increases and measured foundry
demand

We expect front loading of Flash memory capacity build-up in
H1 2007 and a strong uptake of the XT:1900i in H2 2007

2007: Another year of growth

ASML to acquire Brion Technologies

Brion is a venture-backed startup based in Santa Clara,
California, founded in 2002

More than 120 employees

8 out of top 10 chip makers are Brion customers

Brion is the largest, fastest growing pure-play in computational
lithography

Products include Litho Verification, Simulation and RET/OPC
tools

Technology transfers between companies will strengthen each
others product lines, leading to significant customer value and
business growth

/ Slide 37

 

ASML’s growth trajectory

Natural market growth, as lithography needs per node are
increasing:

More tools for more layers

Higher ASP to address complexity

Market share growth, as ASML strengthens technology
leadership fueled by R&D accumulated experience and
scale

Scope broadening, as ASML acquires hardware value
expansion technologies and new product opportunities
