OTHER EVENTS. - ------ ------------ On April 12, 2001, Ibis Technology Corporation publicly disseminated a press release announcing that, due to a substantial decrease in wafer forecasts from one of its largest customers, Ibis has revised its outlook for the second quarter and full year 2001, lowering its revenue projections. Ibis' customer, one which manufactures optical components utilizing Ibis' wafers, has informed Ibis that it expects to order a very small quantity of wafers in the second quarter and substantially reduced quantities for the remainder of 2001. While the impact on the first quarter is expected to be minimal, Ibis is now projecting second quarter total revenue to be reduced by approximately 50 to 60 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. Full year total revenue is still anticipated to be up, although only slightly, compared to fiscal 2000.

Ibis' customer, one which manufactures optical components utilizing Ibis' wafers, has informed Ibis that it expects to order a very small quantity of wafers in the second quarter and substantially reduced quantities for the remainder of 2001. While the impact on the first quarter is expected to be minimal, the Company is now projecting second quarter total revenue to be reduced by approximately 50 to 60 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2000. Full year total revenue is still anticipated to be up, although only slightly, compared to fiscal 2000. "Despite the expected decrease in wafer orders from this customer, overall demand for SOI technology continues," said Martin Reid, president and CEO of Ibis. "Ibis has taken aggressive measures to expand availability of its SIMOX-SOI wafers in the global market, including a sales and marketing alliance with MEMC Electronic Materials and the introduction of Advantox(R) MLD, an IBM-licensed process. We believe these steps position Ibis to meet growing demand for high-quality, low-cost, and larger wafer SIMOX-SOI." The Company plans to announce first quarter results on April 26, and plans to conduct a webcast conference call to discuss the results and business conditions.
