Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with SEC requirements for interim financial
statements.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders which is
incorporated by reference into the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for the fair statement of financial position, results of operations
and cash flows for the interim periods.  The results of operations
for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be 
expected for the full year.

Net Income Per Share

Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted 
average number of common and common equivalent (when dilutive) shares of
common stock outstanding during each period.

Line of Credit

The Company has a revolving line of credit agreement with a bank that
provides for maximum borrowings of $10.0 million and expires in May 1996.
Borrowings under the line of credit, which are secured by substantially all
of the assets of the Company, bear interest at the bank's prime rate.  The 
agreement requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants
and restricts the payment of dividends.  At September 30, 1995, the Company 
had no borrowings outstanding under the line of credit.

The Company has a Term Loan Agreement with the same bank which provides 
$3.0 million to fund leasehold improvements to its facility.  At
September 30, 1995, $236,000 under the Term Loan Agreement was outstanding. 
This agreement requires the Company to comply with the same covenants and
restrictions as those under the line of credit.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995
were $27.2 million and $74.8 million, respectively, compared to net sales of
$18.2 million and $47.0 million, respectively, for the corresponding periods
in 1994.  On a percentage basis, net sales for the three and nine months 
ended September 30, 1995 increased 49 percent and 59 percent, respectively,
when compared to the same periods in 1994. The increase in net sales during
the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was due principally to increased sales 
of CVD systems with higher average selling prices (ASP), offset by lower unit
sales of ion implantation systems.  The increase during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 was due primarily to the introduction of the tungsten 
chemical vapor deposition (CVD) 7000 product line with higher ASP and higher
unit sales of ion implantation systems.  The improvements in net sales during
these periods were achieved as a result of continued strong market conditions
in Korea.

Gross margins for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 were 
39 percent and 40 percent, respectively, compared to 38 percent and 39 percent,
respectively, for the same periods in 1994.  The improvements were due 
primarily to higher ASP on CVD system sales, improved production cycle times, 
greater absorption of manufacturing costs and other gross margin improvement 
programs, offset by $0.8 million of retrofit charges during the quarter for CVD 
7000 systems sold during 1995.  The Company's cost of goods sold and gross 
margins have historically been affected by variations in ASP, changes in the 
mix of product sales, product transitions, unit shipments levels, the level of 
foreign sales and competitive pricing pressures.

As a percentage of net sales, research and development (R&D) expenses for the 
three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 were 12 percent, compared to 
15 percent during the same periods in 1994. The percentage decrease for the 
three and nine month periods was due primarily to higher net sales volumes.  On
an absolute dollar basis, R&D expenses for the three and nine months ended 
September 30, 1995 increased by $0.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively, 
when compared to the same periods in 1994.  The increases were primarily 
related to additional headcount and related payroll costs, higher material 
costs and depreciation expense for new product development.  The Company 
continually evaluates its R&D investment in view of evolving competitive and 
market conditions.

Selling, general and administrative (S,G&A) expenses were 18 percent and 
19 percent, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995, 
respectively, compared to 17 percent and 19 percent for the same periods in
1994.  On an absolute dollar basis, S,G&A expenses for the three and nine 
months ended September 30, 1995 increased $1.9 million and $5.3 million, 
respectively, when compared to the same periods in 1994.  The percentage of net
sales and absolute dollar increases were primarily due to headcount additions 
and related payroll costs, higher sales commissions and incentives, and 
increased depreciation expense.  

During the three months ended September 30, 1995, the Company had $0.3 million
in other income, compared to $24 thousand in other income for the comparable 
period in 1994.  The increase in other income was due to interest income earned
on higher cash balances outstanding during the third quarter of 1995 when 
compared to the same period in 1994.  For the nine months ended September 30, 
1995, the Company had other income of $0.5 million, compared to $0.6 million 
of other income for the same period in 1994.  The negative change during this 
period was primarily a result of the gain on the sale of property and 
equipment of approximately $0.5 million in the second quarter of 1994.  The 
effective tax rate for the three and nine months of 1995 was 7 percent compared
to an effective tax rate of 5 percent for the same periods in 1994.   

                                8     

The Company has continued to experience positive financial performance in 
recent quarters.  These results have been primarily due to strong market 
conditions for the Company's products in Korea, and one Korean customer in 
particular, as a result of increased investments in DRAM manufacturing 
facilities in this region.  However, due to the softness in the Company's order
rate during the third quarter of 1995, the Company's reliance on a limited 
number of customers for a significant portion of its orders, the continued 
competitive market environment for the Company's products and the historically
cyclical nature of the semiconductor equipment market, the Company remains 
somewhat cautious about the short-term prospects for its business.  The Company
continues to make strategic investments in new product development and 
manufacturing improvements with a view to improve future performance by 
enhancing product offerings; however, such investment may adversely affect 
short-term operating performance.  The Company is also continuing its efforts 
to implement productivity improvements for future operating performance.  The 
Company believes that the future economic environment could continue to 
lengthen the order and sales cycles for its products, causing it to continue to
simultaneously book and ship some orders during the same quarter.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Company's cash and cash 
equivalents increased $8.2 million principally due to issuance of common stock 
of $17.8 million, offset by the repayment of short-term bank borrowings of 
$3.8 million, repayments of long-term debt of $1.0 million, and the purchase of
property and equipment of $4.6 million.  The $0.2 million decrease in cash from
operating activities primarily resulted from an increase of $7.7 million in 
accounts receivable due to higher sales during the quarter and the inability to
collect the receivable from shipments made late in the quarter, and an increase
in inventories of $8.1 million as a result of inventory purchases received late
in the quarter to support shipments in the fourth quarter of 1995.  The 
decrease in cash from operations was primarily offset by an increase in accounts
payable of $3.1 million as a result of inventory purchases made late in the 
quarter for fourth quarter shipments and the cash management practices of the 
Company, and an increase of $3.6 million in accrued expenses due to retrofit 
costs accrued on the CVD 7000 systems, increased warranty and commission 
accruals as a result of higher sales volumes, and increased accruals for profit
sharing and incentives. In addition, the decrease in cash from operating 
activities was offset by depreciation and amortization of $3.0 million and net
income of $6.6 million.

The Company's primary source of funds at September 30, 1995 consisted of 
$18.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, and funds available under a 
$10.0 million revolving line of credit.  The line of credit is secured by 
substantially all of the assets of the Company and expires in May 1996.  At 
September 30, 1995, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the line of
credit.

Capital expenditures during the first nine months of 1995 were $4.6 million and
related primarily to acquisition of machinery and equipment for the Company's 
R&D and Applications Laboratories.  The Company anticipates that it will 
continue to make capital expenditures during the remainder of 1995 and will be 
funded through existing working capital or lease financing. 

On February 17, 1995, the Company sold 2,539,018 shares of Common Stock through
a private placement offering, which generated net proceeds of approximately 
$16.4 million.

The Company believes that existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated 
from operations, if any, and existing credit facilities will be sufficient to 
satisfy its cash needs in the near term and for the foreseeable future.
