Ensuring technological leadership

Continuously increasing R&D investments to reinforce leadership…

… in Immersion:

500 TWINSCAN’s shipped

28 immersion systems shipped to customer sites on three continents -
4 are shipped to Japan

25 TWINSCAN XT:1700i – 45nm half pitch capable tools to be made in
‘06

Immersion tools in production with minimum yield loss vs. mature dry

TWINSCAN XT:1900i – 40nm half pitch capable prepared for shipment
by mid ‘07

… in New Generation processes:

Lithography Equipment  -  a growing market with
three major value drivers

Accelerating roadmap forcing more complexity…  

ASP increase not fully compensated by throughput

…and more processing layers with

Alternative shrink solutions (Spacer, 3D, Vertical
gates)

Double Patterning

…with increased value generated through
performance Overlay-Yield

…leading to “Litho content” growth

/ Slide 11

Source:  ASML

As shrink continues more litho layers and more
immersion layers are needed….







… leading to growing Lithography expenditure

Outlook update:

Industry Analysts forecast average 9% IC unit growth in 2007 and
about 5.5 billion Euro ($ 6.7 Billion) litho investment in 2007 (source:
Gartner Dataquest and VLSI Research)

ASML’s record current backlog of 2.1 billion Euro suggests strong
H1 2007, sustained by Flash planned new fab lines, DRAM strong
capacity increase and measured foundry demand, while IC
inventory reduces

Anticipated pause in lithography purchasing by the Flash memory
segment in H2 07 to be compensated by the ramp-up of the
XT:1900i immersion system, and by steady gains in ASML’s market
share

/ Slide 13

ASML’s positioning for growth

A secular trend, as Lithography needs per node are growing:

More tools for more layers

Higher ASP to address complexity

A solid business model execution, as ASML continues to
grow its worldwide market share through Technology
leadership fueled by R&D strength and scale
