1.) Except balance sheet data as of December 31, 2005, all figures are unaudited.

2.) The calculation of the diluted net income per ordinary share in this period does not assume conversion of ASML’s outstanding Convertible Subordinated Notes, as such conversions would have an anti-dilutive effect.

3.) The calculation of diluted net income per ordinary share in this period assumes conversion of ASML’s 5.50 percent Subordinated Notes due 2010 and ASML’s 5.75 percent Subordinated Notes due 2006, as such conversions would have a dilutive effect (57,388(000) weighted average equivalent number of ordinary shares).

ASML - Notes to the Summary U.S. GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation

ASML follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Further disclosures, as required under U.S. GAAP in annual reports, are not included in the summary consolidated financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are stated in thousands of euros (‘EUR’).

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ASML Holding N.V. and all of its majority-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Recognition of revenues

ASML recognizes revenue when all four revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectibility is reasonably assured. At ASML, this policy generally results in revenue recognition from the sale of a system upon shipment and revenue recognition from the installation of a system upon completion of that installation at the customer site. Each system undergoes, prior to shipment, a “Factory Acceptance Test” in ASML’s clean room facilities, effectively replicating the operating conditions that will be present on the customer’s site, in order to verify whether the system will meet its standard specifications and any additional technical and performance criteria agreed with the customer. A system is shipped, and revenue recognized, only after all specifications are met and customer sign-off is received or waived. Although each system’s performance is re-tested upon installation at the customer’s site, ASML has never failed to successfully complete installation of a system at a customer premises.

The fair value of installation services provided to customers is initially deferred and is recognized when the installation is completed. Sales from service contracts are recognized when performed. Revenue from prepaid service contracts is recognized over the life of the contract.

Use of estimates

The preparation of ASML’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Stock options

On January 1, 2006 ASML implemented the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payments” (SFAS 123(R)), using the modified prospective transition method. SFAS 123(R) requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based upon the grant-date fair value of those awards. Using the modified prospective transition method of adopting SFAS 123(R), ASML began recognizing compensation expense for equity-based awards granted after January 1, 2006 plus unvested awards granted prior to January 1, 2006. Under this method of implementation, no restatement of prior periods has been made.

Prior to January 1, 2006, ASML measured compensation expense for its stock option plans using the intrinsic value method under APB 25 and related interpretations. As the exercise price of all options granted under these plans was not below the fair market price of the underlying common stock on the grant date, no compensation expense was recognized in the consolidated condensed statements of operations under the intrinsic value method.

Notes to the reconciliation from U.S. GAAP to IFRS

Note 1 Share-based Payments

Under IFRS, ASML applies IFRS 2, “Share-based payments” beginning from January 1, 2004. In accordance with IFRS 2, ASML records as an expense the fair value of its share-based payments with respect to stock options granted to its employees after November 7, 2002.

Under U.S. GAAP, until December 31,2005, ASML accounted for stock option plans using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25 “Accounting for stock issued to employees” and provides pro forma disclosure of the impact of the fair value method on net income and earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for stock based compensation”. As of January 1, 2006, ASML applies SFAS No. 123(R) “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” which is a revision of SFAS No.123. Under SFAS No. 123(R) ASML records as an expense the fair value of its share based payments granted after January 1,2006 and unvested share based payments granted prior to January 1, 2006.

Note 2 Capitalization of development expenditures

Under IFRS, ASML applies IAS 38, “Intangible Assets”. During the second half of 2004, ASML made changes to its administrative systems in order to provide sufficient information to comply with IFRS beginning from January 1, 2005. Sufficient reliable information to account for capitalization of development expenditures under IFRS before January 1, 2005 is not available. Under IAS 38, capitalized development expenditures are amortized over the expected useful life of the related product generally ranging between 2 and 3 years. Amortization starts when the developed product is ready for volume production.

Under U.S. GAAP, ASML applies SFAS No. 2, “Accounting for Research and Development Costs”. In accordance with SFAS No. 2, ASML charges costs relating to research and development to operating expense as incurred.

Note 3 Convertible Subordinated Notes

Under IFRS, ASML applies IAS 32 “Financial instruments: Disclosure and presentation” and IAS 39 “Financial instruments: Recognition and measurement” beginning from January 1, 2005. In accordance with IAS 32 and IAS 39, ASML accounts separately for the equity and liability component of its convertible notes. The equity component relates to the grant of a conversion option to shares to the holder of the bond.

The liability component creates a financial liability that is measured at amortized cost which results in additional interest charges.

Under U.S. GAAP, ASML accounts for its convertible bonds as a liability at the principal amount outstanding.

“Safe Harbor” Statement under the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: the matters discussed in this document may include forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to: economic conditions, product demand and semiconductor equipment industry capacity, worldwide demand and manufacturing capacity utilization for semiconductors (the principal product of our customer base), competitive products and pricing, manufacturing efficiencies, new product development, ability to enforce patents, the outcome of intellectual property litigation, availability of raw materials and critical manufacturing equipment, trade environment, and other risks indicated in the risk factors included in ASML’s Annual Report on Form 20-F and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
