REHOVOT, Israel, August 29, 2023 – Nova (Nasdaq: NVMI) announced today that one of the world’s leading foundry manufacturers recently selected Nova Prism 2 for its advanced packaging process steps.

Advanced packaging applications such as 3D-stacking and heterogeneous integration help maintain Moore’s law and achieve higher bandwidth, lower latency, lower power, and higher yield. The new advanced packaging schemes necessitate process steps such as hybrid bonding and demand tighter process control on smaller, denser interconnects and tall, highly complex multilayered structures.

The Nova Prism platform, using its unique spectral interferometry technology, has a proven advantage in addressing these new challenges and providing manufacturers with the relevant insights to achieve successful production. Nova Prism 2 is the newest generation of the platform, offering the improved sensitivity and accuracy required to address the R&D and high-volume manufacturing metrology needs of advanced process nodes.

“This selection by one of the world’s leading semiconductor foundries demonstrates the growing value of Nova’s innovative metrology portfolio beyond traditional front-end process steps,” said Gaby Waisman, Nova’s president and CEO. “The increasing complexity of advanced packaging architecture requires novel in-line metrology solutions, and our market-leading portfolio allows manufacturers to utilize optical CD and spectral interferometry technologies in completely new ways. We are encouraged by the keen interest our customers are showing in what we can do to help them overcome the growing challenges in advanced packaging.”

The Company further reported that it expects to recognize initial revenues from the selection soon within the calendar year 2023, and that presently it is undergoing additional evaluations and demos by several other IC manufacturers for similar advanced packaging applications.

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, tax effect of non-GAAP adjustment and taxes attributed to one-time elective tax settlement, 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.
