Johnson Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Cabot Microelectronics Corporation 630/375-6631 CABOT MICROELECTRONICS REPORTS RESULTS FOR SECOND FISCAL QUARTER 2004 AURORA, IL, April 22, 2004 - Cabot Microelectronics Corporation (Nasdaq: CCMP), the leading supplier of chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) polishing slurries to the semiconductor industry, today reported financial results for its second fiscal quarter, which ended March 31, 2004. Total revenue for the second fiscal quarter of 2004 was $73.5 million, down 3.6% from $76.3 million in the prior quarter and up 18.2% from $62.2 million in the second quarter a year ago. While overall sales volumes increased slightly from the prior quarter, revenue was adversely affected by a decline in the overall average selling price as a result of a lower valued product mix and selective price reductions. Gross profit of $36.1 million in the quarter was down by 3.0% sequentially from the $37.3 million reported in the prior quarter and up 18.9% from the $30.4 million reported in the year ago quarter. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit increased to 49.2% this quarter from 48.8% last quarter, primarily due to higher yields in the company's manufacturing process and overall lower product costs, partially offset by lower prices. Gross profit in the same quarter of last year represented 48.9% of revenue. Operating expenses of $21.3 million, consisting of research and development, selling and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, increased sequentially by $1.6 million, and were $4.5 million higher than the comparable quarter last year. The increase from the prior quarter was partially attributable to approximately $0.5 million in separation costs associated with the departure of two executives, which the company had previously disclosed, along with annual wage and salary increases that became effective on January 1, higher depreciation, and a modest increase in research and development expense. Net income for the quarter was $9.7 million, down 16.2% from $11.6 million in the previous quarter and up 7.3% from $9.1 million in the year ago quarter. Diluted earnings per share were $0.39 this quarter, compared to $0.46 in the previous quarter and $0.37 in the year ago quarter. -MORE- CABOT MICROELECTRONICS REPORTS RESULTS FOR SECOND FISCAL QUARTER 2004...............................PAGE 2 OF 4 "While it has been a challenging quarter, we believe we are well-positioned for continued leadership in the competitive CMP slurry arena," stated William P.
