Patrick Ho

that time. on you Bill, become has to you leading side the historical Blue space Thank recorded technology bit the track a differentiation a of where position very give record off you of much. Veeco give your forward share particularly LED basis? over the on you for pixel's going what the track from came similar quite base on in customers to first MOCVD player and for could successful, color the on been side a power little things in Can lower terms the of offer semiconductor product this potentially a

Bill Miller

for Sure the call. Patrick, thanks

TurboDisc hundreds of share campaigns our So been gaining competitor, able can in run we look were fundamental where technology, and if our had LED production share ramped, back we successful you to win many customers the against gain because market volumes the technology as in runs.

needs without interruption or in their the so So our variability our so, experience and whereas stop machine it a that competitors. frequency. to much our can competition and mass at is architecture maintain run prefer high much month run-to-run production the higher for customers applications, a better volume over Also is our

that so of least lab about three I with and Some ago actually started this is at today very and the those of customers. we half a we very of the have quarter the uniformity certainly some our and shortcomings. films, low why are during films that we that discussions. good all year and further to share our Last mentioned faced have we and made challenges excited quarter report composition progress and our product delayed sharing a that address months to pursue and we we a in developing just of about seem want data were last to I'm happy They a

fundamental the products of advantage these fullness come I I over technical will of through the us, of So behind have think once we issues think our time.

Patrick Ho

margins And today impacted as question of follow-up because Sam, that's still maybe obviously the levels. Right, lower helpful. revenue for my gross are

ramping I'm again that just margins? for be the the the be look at product it mix Is what’s progression will to at – is asking how the going you gross terms forecast; exact as to not bigger up look an the in or it biggest and the year XXXX, you a be for As revenues influence going mix though of influence? progresses,

Sam Maheshwari

actually, factors all play these in. Patrick, Yeah of actually would

very You are structural well. know progressing efforts our as to improve margins gross such

the little all to more pronounced, might asset color, which know provide might aspects more You then be cover which pronounced. more and I'll be try bit a

initiatives So well quarter the initiative announced progressing reduction completed first, in would be we QX. cost cost those and you and last are initiatives know reduction

So the And the product reduction that fully. our of from from begin then portion benefit the in side, QX to see benefit on you mix we are already would onwards revenues. commodity seeing secondly

to about. benefit last accelerate expect we’ve grow you we to a are as gross and rate as quarters begin margin aspect run due the correctly we current now margins new and further mix talking and to driven be are course to getting levels right we the of but tools through And here gross as However, impacted, volume of the EUV certain shape our higher current the QX the ’XX you from quarter. revenue expecting other to that been low know is said, onwards you to of then sequentially products the than expecting

So – that from should overall we help part . also of here our gross as forward go a margin from

aspects, I the the mix I of think terms biggest three say aspect. product would in all is

concentration seeing and three are are remind from we structural another. here. changes But of to fluctuate in more XXXX much gross the do our would everybody our due margin due one year. reason strongest the to gross second similar through We of it I gross some can of or want have elements should commodities And then half to positive on go But outside said. to improve we as to mix revenues I margin, structural the quarter to concentration working product margin always all we that benefits of reduction out as this the be strongly and benefit play it the

Patrick Ho

as to margin as question. you final maybe follow-up a the Sam, gross question a and Great, for

continues down. the done job to it really come good I on a think OpEx level guys and have you

the quickly segments, up on side, Packaging end turn for trends they the given OpEx whether business business LSA, Advanced you particularly some can or those when on even you the front volatile How segments? of However, have it's Semiconductor can like trends. favorable turn business

Sam Maheshwari

think the all the R&D I mentioned, semi front fully Patrick efforts. and are all we know Bill and funding product lines you as

In terms to of support SG&A, semi. our we and have front

I think also funding there. fully are we

our foundry that well we bit lot, to backlog that might strong nature we not really and whole we headwinds our be the So At industry I'm a say there now. this scenario right a as our increase you a towards come businesses do OpEx to are we are are from said, of pick planning not would that go stronger, and these again and the then carrying the more we’ll on I it very we is it very, want and exposure are the that case back to there. business need But to semi, due exposure growth I'm front further, seem by driven I foundry. our be at are you meet but you at nuance shift little to low, we units to increasing these may spending looking and industry so we a reduce set it as the expecting at time, as case much to our right in stronger need seeing least we far logic so industry is I look to and the time we memory needed is and very to remind and headwinds due have up, at and But the seeing now. logical this headwinds go think at In back go needs same treat not overall then but to may that again tools demand look the know I as stronger, OpEx customers. and headwinds.

Bill Miller

if reduction add really last fund to headwinds, OpEx pretty these to is, worked really just place, one and we see to so R&D are we action. point ourselves Sam's we round So this we on investment do SG&A take will our for in think trying and I success, hard comment but of left

Patrick Ho

lot a guys. thanks Great,

Bill Miller

Patrick. Thanks

Operator

have we Sachs Brian Goldman from Lee. on, Moving

Brian Lee

making? correctly. XXXX guys, I make Hey gross the is going you relation are going were inference I out, better the quarterly i.e., Patrick’s just be indicative as that to questions. margins current wanted are better revenue Sam, you is gross to you what how Was end also inferring. I your tracking rates think know up the the margin interpreted you will margins, question taking rates to are levels aren’t With currently that moved said pan run run the seeing through this than you being gross full revenue on thanks of March sure are for than year you inferring XXXX at. to you

Sam Maheshwari

should think would would we and benefit a volume be cost outcome, mix that Yes, further also benefit be getting I then reductions and get should because natural completed. we product be

yes, suggesting, the year margins full gross gross margins current are quarter So XXXX at than be or guiding we for yeah. the should higher

Brian Lee

so you that? you the posted in are XX against XX, comping that the you just want clear to se XX to be not Okay, per just I about QX,

Sam Maheshwari

Correct.

Brian Lee

Okay. that? remarks, follow what's QX, it as you may for basis prepared same driving you just us that the had guidance walk revenue outlook to question. several down in a then QX hundred is up are the essentially guiding points. margin Could into And have I you but might that through but gross to missed

Sam Maheshwari

Yeah.

margin, XXX revenue are are guiding basis the levels we know the for gross points in So, margin guided what the QX, what essentially QX lower. same, and gross you we on versus about

margin concentration know everything quarter the to and and same, nothing structural, what at margins low happens one levels, the level. that is happens have You can we product is due fluctuate to is customer impact concentration is any here the overall one from revenue gross this concentration product company these customer or except any and gross do what can reason, that quarter,

know, pricing $X our digits, million $X high tools, our million, is of As single between million, you some tool. $X

gross for for the quarter. company a margin the move given can entire they So

and improvement least your gross in I QX, improvement fluctuations I my during still terms gross expect we the continue year. place have being here in QX hope of that question answer is Did in So reflected what did. cadence Brian? I margin comments but at so to structure to margin stay is say, to

Brian Lee

you. crystal form one that Is forward, cash it was on or the that was to this is million thank you where basically way $XX Cash Maybe as I’ll level roughly. you did – do breakeven plan no, quarter. last pass your in than flow have Yeah, revenues breakeven clear, me know this even $XXX flow about that? you room sort think the revenue breakeven of going to move lower million or and

Sam Maheshwari

try per answer quarter. it volatile your, I’ll $XXX Sure. somewhat a question non-GAAP somewhat a working little business your answer can at EPS the try AP differently. at but or etcetera, bit to AR capital, to gets on is right so because to The million lumpy, are be way it breakeven from payments, look Cash impacted I by we quarter-to-quarter. basis collection now, due

for would $XXX I our say So non-GAAP EPS. million breakeven is

it are expecting line at We looking an during year, and the but improvement now. QX. bottom loss, during income I’m operating it to QX change that’s guiding with have improvement volume cash right so should Obviously I how am consumption

Brian Lee

Okay, alright. Thanks guys.

Bill Miller

Thanks Brian.

Operator

[Operator Instructions]. we And Benchmark Mark have moving Miller The from Company. on

Mark Miller

you the Thank questions. for

reason be new constrain your process and optimistic just are storage under or Just and market they some Digital data was about gives you somewhat what pressure. In changes wondering, with Western certainly these capacity? Seagate are to

Bill Miller

drive And overall is heads and but that even some look, are engaged from are second Mark, seeing drives. improving are great obviously business, a softness our you actually are heads our not element increasing, down the heads areal on customers Sure that’s the overall drives What it's really drive piece if there, that’s very we so is per those though actually customers certainly question. – with drives density. piece we

of to the requires with of and basically combination each well of And a so as closely more working it's and different steps get very increase passes flows which numbers basically are as our through an our density equipment. side, we on head, changes in out them technology

the So to your is the combination actually answer of question. both

Sam Maheshwari

of Mark, on basis that amount we I tactical business. from the would of side a there, add do backlog the significant have

of six type to sold time good are with do months XX nine lead and products a have amount these So to a we of backlog.

us gives the So confidence that also of potential growth here. terms in

Mark Miller

like the these Well, head we wait go is any type opportunities be could horizon. on Are at there new a technologies long HAMR as for there to designs? it looks appear for to changes starting you that

Bill Miller

there are my well, previous did as center answer some Yes, and so today's on what of as applications drives. those

Mark Miller

I understood something. make just I Sam, want to sure

an projecting here the I you it the this year revenues increasing quarter million and quarter. seems $XX did revenues in non-GAAP up-ticket down confused? or driving even per get as for You're like to that OpEx though progresses Are are

Sam Maheshwari

that correct. is No,

We that’s are and driving by QX what OpEx are to million non-GAAP $XX towards. be driving we

Moving we Northland have Gus Richard. on from

Gus Richard

Thanks for taking my question.

is is On say that now power. it the and MOCVD all business business, to that RF fair

Bill Miller

amounts its Power, Hi Yeah, Gus, do how are applications. but business, pretty RF, service largely If you? some commodity a have We good of question. those type we do yes, deminimus. it's

Gus Richard

it. And got Okay, then...

Bill Miller

have applications clear. way just yellow the by so as also orange, be well, We red, to

Gus Richard

and think tool for VCSEL? beta do when you you might a Yeah, ship

Bill Miller

dollar million question. the That's

players. very working closely are we key So the with all

them working as building to We beta a we in priority are are going demos; of through anticipation customers. those in high inventory land selling tools and we are

a be we’ll and you an yet, having so of steps we It's up. giving – than a I specific would other a beta date, So next one agreement to have shipping agreement, tool. think after the well don't be it’s I certainly going coming

Gus Richard

in Got on the packaging memory, memory? it. And advanced is that bandwidth high-end then

Bill Miller

follow-on Yes, orders as it a won some recently repeat well. We new had application. It's then and is.

Gus Richard

in is how product processes? LSA, that for advanced many on used the And layers the

Bill Miller

goal working moment. the we next one we we've one. the other node, next for have to our At gain doing work as some moment customers, at more one in one there, At qualified customer, demo working, node application and been obviously applications, are customer, to invited with are enter the well with to but we are and we node, are we the the as is

Gus Richard

other Got companies that customer process? the just on fan-out, advanced it. doing to there apps, mobile the guess adopt we APs, on And I on started is processors packaging that consuming have capacity last phone for still one or one me

Bill Miller

Yes, yes, the just are is advanced what about talking packaging I – talking you're you're OSATs. think opportunities about, for But certainly, seeing in have so think I if we they application. there one

are we selling So to the OSAT. largest

I think that well. we press released as

So quiet, buying is I doing seeing at sitting we kind some OSAT the the foundries, is and but of the moment. are both think foundry

Gus Richard

Got much. so it. Thanks you

Bill Miller

I the question. Gus. appreciate Thanks
