FY2020 New Products
ACTIS A150 Actinic EUV Patterned Mask Inspection System was released
This is the world's first EUV patterned mask inspection system Sept using EUV light, whose wavelength is much shorter than 2019 DUV light, for inspection light. It achieves a
higher level of defect sensitivity and enables the detection of printable phase defects. It is also capable of performing through-pellicle EUV mask inspection.
OPTELICS® HYBRID+ Hybrid Laser Microscope was released
This microscope achieves both multi-functions and high performance with two sets of optics - laser confocal and white light confocal - integrated on a single
Jan platform. It adopted hardware improvements such as LED light source for longer
2020
lifetime as well as new software programs for such functions as measurement assist and AI inspection.
12
- In FY2020, we released 2 new products.
- ACTIS A150 Actinic EUV Patterned Mask Inspection System is the world's first EUV patterned mask inspection system using EUV light (whose wavelength is 13.5nm, the same as that of EUV lithography) for inspection light.

- Our Mid-Term Business Plan is described in this slide.
- Our policy is "Focus our resources on business areas where we excel and expect high growth." This remains unchanged since the outset of the Plan. We divide the
Plan into three-year periods called phases and set goals for each phase. - The first phase was named Phase 0, which indicates our intention to start afresh with a clean slate. In Phase 0, we aimed to "get ready for new chapter" by focusing on select business areas where we excel and expect high growth. We shifted the focus of resource allocation to semiconductor-related products because that is where we can make the best use of our strengths. We identified what must be done in each phase and took on key issues. In Phase 1, we tried to "take on new challenges," and in Phase 2 we endeavored to "establish solid foundation of new business."
16
Mid-Term Business Plan - Phase 3
We are in Phase 3, the fourth stage of Mid-Term Business Plan. We will achieve large sales increase in this stage.
Phase 3 | July 2018 |

17
- FY2021 is the final year of Phase 3.
- Phase 3 is a stage when we achieve large sales growth by harvesting the fruit of past efforts. Our slogan is "On Growth Trajectory with New Business."
- In Core Business, we will further enhance competitive edge by augmenting our unique technical expertise. In New Business, it is time to harvest and achieve large sales growth. We also continue our effort to find new needs and new applications. In Service, the number of tools being used at customer sites has increased significantly for the last few years. We will implement global service enhancement for better operational and maintenance support and meet customer expectations.
17
Strategy and Target Market
Focus on market segments where our strengths can be used effectively, where our solutions are differentiated from others, and where the customers appreciate the value we offer.
Target a market where:
- The customer has an advanced technical requirement in the area of
inspection and measurement, and Lasertec has a chance to offer differentiated solutions.
-
The customer appreciates the value of inspection and measurement.
③ There is potential for future investment.
*Offer optimum solutions in a market segment that large companies find not large enough to justify entry (if the market is large, target a segment where we have a competitive advantage).
*Capture a large market share in the segment.
*Enter neighboring segments to expand the area of business.
*Have multiple market segments like this to pursue multi niche champion strategy.
18
- Next, let me describe our strategy and target market.
- We focus on market segments where our strengths can be used effectively, where our solutions are differentiated from others, and where the customers appreciate the value we offer.
- More specifically, we target a market where the following conditions are met: ① The customer has an advanced technical requirement in the area of inspection and measurement, and Lasertec has a chance to offer differentiated solutions. ②The customer appreciates the value of inspection and measurement. ③There is potential for future investment as well as for current investment.

Wafer inspection systems
Achieve large sales increase mainly by promoting SiC wafer inspection systems
Global service
Establish a solid global maintenance infrastructure that enables local engineers at overseas subsidiaries to perform system installation and maintenance without relying on HQ engineers
25
- The area of focus in FY2021 continues to be "EUV-related systems," "wafer inspection systems," and "global service."

- Let us explain our activities in the area of EUV-related systems with an illustration of semiconductor manufacturing process, which flows from left to right, starting with mask blank manufacturing and followed by mask manufacturing, and finally by device manufacturing at wafer fabs. We offer inspection systems to cover the entire process from EUV substrate inspection to mask inspection at wafer fabs.
- MAGICS, at the far left, is used to inspect EUV substrates, which are plates made of low thermal-expansion glass.
- ABICS is designed to inspect the multilayer formed on substrates with 13.5nm EUV, the wavelength of light used in lithography.
- ACTIS, shown in the middle, is designed to inspect patterned EUV masks. This inspection systems also uses 13.5nm EUV for inspection light. It is also capable of performing through-pellicle EUV mask inspection.
- MATRICS X8ULTRA can be used to inspect both conventional optical masks and EUV masks.
- BASIC inspects the backside of EUV mask and removes particles detected on the backside.

We plan to pay record annual dividends for FY2021
Dividend Policy
・Steady income distribution to shareholders and flexible payment based on performance ・35% dividend payout ratio on a consolidated basis is the guideline (since FY2015)

Note) Effective January 1, 2020, the company split its common stock 2 for 1. The figures of year-end dividend for FT2020 and interim and year-end dividends for FY2021 (forecast) are calculated based on the number of issued shares after the stock split. The figure of year-end dividend per share for FY2020 would be 54 yen if it were calculated using the number of issued shares before the stock split.
