Management Comments

"Nova delivered sound results for the second quarter, demonstrating strength in all product lines across our dimensional, materials, and chemical metrology portfolio. Our business performance yielded another quarterly revenue record with both revenue and profitability reaching the high end of the guidance," commented Eitan Oppenhaim, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our solid backlog and the demand for our products across the various semiconductor technology nodes solidify our goal to continue our profitable growth this year as well.  With the company revenues exceeding $500 million in the last four quarters, we mark the realization of our Nova 500 strategic plan, which cemented the fundamentals to support our future organic and inorganic growth in the long term."

2022 Third Quarter Financial Outlook

Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures

This press release provides financial measures that exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition related expenses, inventory step-up and contingent consideration revaluation, stock-based compensation expenses, revaluation of operating lease liabilities, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs and tax effect of non-GAAP adjustment, as applicable, and are therefore not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Nova's performance because they reflect our operational results and enhance management's and investors' ability to evaluate Nova's performance before charges or benefits considered by management to be outside Nova's ongoing operating results. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that it is in the best interest of its investors to provide financial information that will facilitate comparison of both historical and future results and allow greater transparency to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A reconciliation of each GAAP to non-GAAP financial measure discussed in this press release is contained in the accompanying financial tables.
