Commenting on the Company’s operating results, Chuck del Prado, President and Chief Executive Officer of ASM International, said “Commenting on the company’s operating results, Chuck del Prado, President and Chief Executive Officer of ASM International, said, “ASM’s overall results are improving as a result of the market upturn and the restructuring program that is being executed.”

“In Front-end we see improvement in terms of sales and bookings. Front-end bookings almost doubled compared to the albeit low Q2-levels. Also we are on schedule with our cost reduction as part of the PERFORM! program. At the same time we are making inroads with new technologies positioning our front-end products and processes for the 32nm production ramps of our customers.”

“Back-end’s strong performance reflects continued solid business momentum from both the semiconductor assembly and packaging segment, and adjacent markets such as LED. In addition to reporting substantial growth in quarterly sales, Back-end significantly expanded its operating leverage as margins grew, driven by strong equipment and leadframe demand and aggressive cost-cutting measures implemented earlier this year”.

All amounts in this press release are rounded to the nearest thousand or million euro; therefore amounts may not equal (sub) totals due to rounding.

The following table shows the operating performance for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the second quarter of 2009 and the third quarter of 2008:

(EUR millions)	Q3 2008		Q2 2009		Q3 2009		% Change Q2 2009 to Q3 2009		% Change Q3 2008 to Q3 2009

Net Sales. The following table shows net sales of our Front-end and Back-end segments for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the second quarter of 2009 and the third quarter of 2008:

(EUR millions)	Q3 2008	Q2 2009	Q3 2009	% Change Q2 2009 to Q3 2009		% Change Q3 2008 to Q3 2009
Front-end	63.4	27.6	37.8	37	%	(40	)%
Back-end	126.6	91.9	142.5	55	%	13	%
Total net sales	190.0	119.5	180.2	51	%	(5	)%

During the third quarter of 2009, net sales of wafer processing equipment (Front-end segment) represented 21% of total net sales and sales of assembly and packaging equipment and materials (Back-end segment) represented 79% of total net sales.

Due to increasing customers activity in the third quarter of 2009 additional sales in our Front-end segment were realized.

In our Back-end segment the early signs of strengthening order in-flows which started during the second quarter have gathered further momentum as we entered the second half of the year. During the past three months, our Back-end segment has seen a spectacular surge in orders and a substantial leap in quarter-on-quarter growth.

The strengthening of the Yen, US dollar and US dollar related currencies against the euro in the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the third quarter of 2008 impacted total net sales by 8%.

Gross Profit Margin. The following table shows gross profit and gross profit margin for the Front-end and Back-end segments for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the second quarter of 2009 and the third quarter of 2008:

(EUR millions)	Gross profit Q3 2008	Gross profit before impairment inventories Q2 2009	Gross profit before impairment inventories Q3 2009	Gross profit margin Q3 2008		Gross profit margin Q2 2009		Gross profit margin Q3 2009		Increase or (decrease) percentage points Q2 2009 to Q3 2009	Increase or (decrease) percentage points Q3 2008 to Q3 2009
Front-end	20.3	0.4	6.7	32.1	%	1.7	%	17.7	%	16.0	(14.4	)
Back-end	48.4	33.3	62.3	38.2	%	36.2	%	43.7	%	7.5	5.5
Total gross profit	68.7	33.7	69.0	36.2	%	28.2	%	38.3	%	10.1	2.1

The decrease in the gross profit margin excluding the impairment of inventories of our Front-end segment in the third quarter of 2009 is the result of the relative low sales level, the mix of products sold and the absorption of our manufacturing overhead compared with the third quarter of 2008. As a result of the current prolonged contraction in the market and strategic focus on certain of our product configurations an additional impairment of inventories has been recorded of EUR 5.9 million in the third quarter of 2009, resulting in a gross profit margin of EUR 0.8 million or 2.1% of net sales.

Gross margins of our Back-end segment have further improved in the third quarter of 2009. With the overall improvement in the performance, gross margin during the quarter has exceeded the same quarter last year by a wide margin. Improvement in gross margin was a direct result of higher production volume, lower metal prices and our cost reduction effort.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The following table shows selling, general and administrative expenses for our Front-end and Back-end segments for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the second quarter of 2009 and the third quarter of 2008:

(EUR millions)	Q3 2008	Q2 2009	Q3 2009	% Change Q2 2009 to Q3 2009		% Change Q3 2008 to Q3 2009
Front-end	16.5	14.7	14.7	—		(11	)%
Back-end	14.2	11.0	13.5	23	%	(5	)%
Total selling, general and administrative expenses	30.7	25.7	28.2	10	%	(8	)%

As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were 16% in the third quarter of 2009 and 21% in the second quarter of 2009 and 16% in the third quarter of 2008.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of our Front-end segment were on the same level as the second quarter of 2009. The lower level of expenses compared to the third quarter of 2008 reflect our focus to reduce our expenses given the current market circumstances, including the further reduction of headcount of the Front-end segment.

The decrease in the Back-end segment compared with the third quarter of 2008 is the result of the implementation of major costs reduction programs, initiated after the market downturn in the second half of 2008. Compared with the second quarter of 2009 the selling, general administrative expenses increased as a result of increased activities.

Headcount of the Front-end segment was further reduced by 5% in the third quarter of 2009.

Research and Development Expenses. The following table shows research and development expenses for our Front-end and Back-end segments for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the second quarter of 2009 and the third quarter of 2008:

(EUR millions)	Q3 2008	Q2 2009	Q3 2009	% Change Q2 2009 to Q3 2009		% Change Q3 2008 to Q3 2009

Back-end	8.1	6.5	7.7	18	%	(5	)%
Total research and development expenses	18.8	14.6	15.2	4	%	(19	)%

As a percentage of net sales, research and development expenses were 8% in the third quarter of 2009, 12% in the second quarter of 2009 and 10% in the third quarter of 2008.

The decrease in the Front-end segment from the second quarter of 2009 and the third quarter of 2008 is the result of the prioritisation of research and development projects.

At the Back-end segment the research and development expenses in the third quarter of 2009 were at a higher level as compared to the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the increased activity.

Restructuring Expenses. In 2009 ASMI is implementing a major restructuring in our Front-end segment as announced on January 9, 2009 and on July 20, 2009. Related to these restructuring plans, an amount of EUR 9.2 million restructuring expenses was recorded in the third quarter of 2009.

Liquidity and capital resources

Net cash provided by operations was EUR 32.0 million for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to EUR 47.7 million for the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 net cash provided by operations was EUR 31.5 million as compared to EUR 109.2 million for the comparable period in 2008. These decreases result mainly from the decreased earnings, partly offset by cash inflows from lower working capital.

10

Net cash used in investing activities was EUR 2.0 million for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to EUR 8.3 million for the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months period ended September 30, 2009 net cash used in investing activities was EUR 7.3 million compared to EUR 23.7 million in the same period last year. The decrease results mainly from lower capital expenditures.

Net cash used in financing activities was EUR 12.1 million for the third quarter of 2009 as compared to net cash used in financing activities of EUR 26.8 million for the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months period ended September 30, 2009 net cash used in financing activities was EUR 29.7 million, in the same period of 2008 this was EUR 83.9 million. During the first nine months of 2008, EUR 36.5 million was spent on the repurchase of treasury shares and EUR 13.5 million was spent on the repayment of debt.

Net working capital, consisting of accounts receivable, inventories, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, advance payments from customers and deferred revenue, decreased from EUR 208.1 million at June 30, 2009 to EUR 194.3 million at September 30, 2009. The decrease includes the (non-cash) impairment of EUR 26.5 million in inventories in the second (EUR 20.6 million) and the third quarter (EUR 5.9 million) of 2009 and the balance of lower manufacturing and sales levels in the Front-end segment and the higher manufacturing and sales levels in the Back-end segment. The number of outstanding days of working capital, measured based on annual sales, decreased from 138 days at June 30, 2009 to 131 days at September 30, 2009. For the same period, our Front-end segment decreased from 163 days to 160 days. Our Back-end segment decreased from 123 days to 117 days.

At September 30, 2009, the Company’s principal sources of liquidity consisted of EUR 147.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and EUR 79.5 million in undrawn bank lines. Approximately EUR 86.9 million of the cash and cash equivalents and EUR 26.4 million of the undrawn bank lines are restricted to use in the Company’s Back-end operations and EUR 16.7 million of the cash and cash equivalents and EUR 8.1 million in undrawn bank lines are restricted to use in the Company’s Front-end operations in Japan.

Change in accounting policies

As per January 1, 2009, ASMI applies FAS 160 “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This Statement changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented. It requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the non-controlling interest (“minority interest”). It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated statement of income, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the minority interest. Previously, net income attributable to the minority interest generally was reported as an expense in arriving at consolidated net income.

As per January 1, 2009, ASMI applies EITF 07-05 “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”.

The Company’s convertible subordinated notes include a component that creates a financial liability to the Company and a component that grants an option to the holder of the convertible note to convert it into common shares of the Company (“conversion option”). EITF 07-05 requires separate recognition of these components.

The fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate at the date of issue, for similar non-convertible debt. Subsequently, the liability is measured at amortized cost. The interest expense on the liability component is calculated by applying the market interest rate for similar non-convertible debt at the date of issue to the liability component of the instrument. The difference between this amount and the interest paid is added to the carrying amount of the convertible subordinated notes, thus creating a non-cash interest expense (for Q3, 2009 EUR 0.8 million). The conversion option is measured at market value through the income statement (revaluation loss in Q3, 2009 EUR 5.4 million).

11

Outlook

For the Company as a whole we expect the fourth quarter to be at least in line with the third quarter. Visibility beyond the fourth quarter remains limited and therefore we are not in a position to give guidance beyond that period at this stage.

The fourth quarter performance for Front-end is expected to modestly further improve in terms of sales, bookings and operating result. We continue to vigorously execute on our cost reduction program towards our target of at least 40% reduction by the first half of 2010 compared to the Q4 2008 run rate.

In Back-end, we expect business levels to remain strong in the fourth quarter driven by healthy product demand from both semiconductor and non-IC customers. We are confident that our diversified product and customer base, as well as capacity additions coming on stream by year-end, will continue to support Back-end’s leading industry position in 2010.

Diluted (1)	51,993		51,610		52,658		51,609

(1) The calculation of diluted net earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings of the Company. Only instruments that have a dilutive effect on net earnings are included in the calculation. The assumed conversion results in adjustment in the weighted average number of common shares and net earnings due to the related impact on interest expense. The calculation is done for each reporting period individually. For the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the effect of a potential conversion of convertible debt into 7,221,492 common shares was anti-dilutive and no adjustments have been reflected in the diluted weighted average number of shares and net earnings per share for this period. The possible increase of common shares caused by employee stock options for the three months ended September 30, 2009 with 158,518 common shares and for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 with 112,975 common shares was anti-dilutive and no adjustments have been reflected in the diluted weighted average number of shares and net earnings per share for this period

Amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand euro; therefore amounts may not equal (sub) totals due to rounding.

ASM INTERNATIONAL N.V.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation

ASM International N.V, ("ASMI") follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

Amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand euro; therefore amounts may not equal (sub) totals due to rounding.

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of ASMI and its subsidiaries, where ASMI holds a controlling interest. The minority interest of third parties is disclosed separately in the Consolidated Financial Statements. All intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Change in accounting policies

As per 1 January 2009, ASMI applies FAS 160 “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This Statement changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented. It requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the non-controlling interest (“minority interest”). It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated statement of income, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the minority interest. Previously, net income attributable to the minority interest generally was reported as an expense in arriving at consolidated net income.

As per 1 January 2009, ASMI applies EITF 07-05 “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”.

The Company’s convertible subordinated notes include a component that creates a financial liability to the Company and a component that grants an option to the holder of the convertible note to convert it into common shares of the Company (“conversion option”). EITF 07-05 requires separate recognition of these components.

The fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate at the date of issue, for similar non-convertible debt. Subsequently, the liability is measured at amortized cost. The interest expense on the liability component is calculated by applying the market interest rate for similar non-convertible debt at the date of issue to the liability component of the instrument. The difference between this amount and the interest paid is added to the carrying amount of the convertible subordinated notes, thus creating a non-cash interest expense. The conversion option is measured at market value through the income statement.

ASM INTERNATIONAL N.V.

RECONCILIATION US GAAP – IFRS

Accounting principles under IFRS

ASMI’s primary consolidated financial statements are and will continue to be prepared in accordance with US GAAP. However, ASMI is required under Dutch law to report its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). As a result of the differences between IFRS and US GAAP that are applicable to ASMI, the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Consolidated Balance Sheet reported in accordance with IFRS differ from those reported in accordance with US GAAP. The major differences relate to goodwill, convertible subordinated notes until 31 December 2008, development expenses, option plans, pension plans and preferred shares.

The reconciliation between IFRS and US GAAP is as follows:

ASM International N.V. Expands Leadership in High-k ALD,

Leading Logic Manufacturer Decides to Buy Pulsar Tool

ALMERE, The Netherlands – October 29, 2009 – ASM International N.V. (NASDAQ: ASMI and Euronext Exchange in Amsterdam: ASM) announced that a leading logic manufacturer, a member of a key semiconductor industry technology alliance, has decided to purchase a Pulsar^® high-k atomic layer deposition (ALD) tool. The system, delivered earlier this month, will be used to deposit hafnium-based higk-k gate dielectrics for 32 and 28 nm logic chips.

“This order is highly representative of ASM’s core strength of taking customers from process development to high volume manufacturing,” said Glen Wilk, product manager for ALD and Epitaxy at ASM. “We have worked with this customer extensively to demonstrate the Pulsar reactor’s ability to scale the gate dielectric and overcome all the challenges of integrating high-k into their device. We have now entered the next phase of our collaboration and are actively engaged in the successful transition to volume manufacturing.”

Pulsar is the industry’s leading ALD process tool, and the first to be used in high volume manufacturing of high-k logic gates. Initially implemented at the 45 nm node, the Pulsar has been qualified for high volume manufacturing down to the 28 nm node. ASM enables advanced high-k and metal gate integration solutions through Pulsar’s ALD process that deposits one atomic layer at a time, enabling faster and smaller chips.

ASM also delivers a broad portfolio of high-k gate films including multiple hafnium-based oxides that enable high-k integration for both high performance and low standby power devices and are already proven through the 22 nm node.
