Verigy Announces Financial Results for Third Quarter, 2007

CUPERTINO, Calif., Aug. 22, 2007 – Verigy Ltd. (NASDAQ: VRGY), a premier semiconductor test company, today reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter, ended July 31, 2007.

Third quarter revenue was $204 million, an 11 percent increase from the prior quarter revenue of $183 million and a 5 percent decrease from $214 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006.  Orders for the third quarter were $208 million, an increase of 3 percent from the prior quarter orders of $202 million.  The book-to-bill ratio for the third quarter was 1.02.

On a GAAP basis, net income for the quarter was approximately $30 million, or $0.50 per fully diluted share, compared to net income of $22 million, or $0.36 per fully diluted share in the prior quarter, and to net income of $13 million, or $0.23 per fully diluted share in the prior year period.  Net income for the third quarter included approximately $1.5 million of charges related to separation and restructuring activities undertaken in connection with Verigy’s spin-off from Agilent Technologies last year.  Excluding these charges related to the spin-off, non-GAAP net income for the third quarter was $32 million, or $0.52 per fully diluted share.




“Verigy achieved a significant milestone during the third quarter: we celebrated our one year anniversary as a public company,” said Keith Barnes, Verigy chairman, chief executive officer and president.  “Q3 was also our fifth consecutive quarter of strong profitability, and we are very pleased with the performance of both our SOC and memory products in the quarter.  We are off to a great start with the new 93K modules that we introduced last month. Several customers have evaluated or placed orders for them in Q3, and we believe that these new products will help us increase revenue and gain market share over the next year.”

“Our Q3 results represent another quarter of solid execution and tight management of working capital,” said Bob Nikl, Verigy chief financial officer.  “We ended the quarter with perhaps the best-in-class balance sheet and gross margin improved by two percentage points. We continue to expand and enhance our product platforms, increase our served available markets, and strengthen our customer base.”

Outlook for Q4 2007

For the fourth quarter ending October 31, 2007, the company provided the following guidance:

·                  Revenue is expected to be in the range of $195 to $205 million.

·                  GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of $28 to $31 million, or $0.46 to $0.51 per fully diluted share.

·                  On a non-GAAP basis, the company expects to report net income of $29 to $32 million, or $0.47 to $0.52 per fully diluted share. To reconcile fourth quarter GAAP and non-GAAP net income and earnings per share, the

company expects to exclude approximately $500 thousand to $1 million of charges from the GAAP results.

Forward-Looking Statements

This earnings release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding Verigy’s guidance for the fourth quarter and other statements that express the company’s expectations, beliefs, plans and forecasts. These forward-looking statements are based on current information and estimates, and are not guarantees of future performance or events.  These statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.  The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, unforeseen changes in demand for semiconductors and thus for semiconductor test solutions, the strength of our customers’ businesses, and unforeseen changes in the demand for current and new products and technologies.  Additional factors that may cause results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are discussed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 30, 2007.  The forward-looking statements, including guidance, are only valid as of this date, and Verigy undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking statements.

Information About Non-GAAP Measures

Our management uses non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of the company. By eliminating the separation and restructuring charges associated with Verigy’s spin-off from Agilent Technologies, management believes it is better able to assess the operating performance of the business.  Since management finds the non-GAAP information to be useful, we believe that our investors also benefit from seeing our results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing our GAAP results.  This information also facilitates our management’s internal comparisons to our historical operating results as well as to the operating results of our competitors.  A reconciliation between our GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided in the attached tables.  Readers are reminded that non-GAAP numbers are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, GAAP financial measures.  They should be read in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures.
