Data Storage revenues were $50 million.

“As anticipated, we experienced a challenging bookings environment in Q2, with total orders of approximately $103 million,” continued Mr. Peeler. “Across our markets, macro-economic concerns and weakness in TV, PC and consumer electronics sales are delaying customers’ capex purchases.” Veeco’s LED & Solar orders totaled $77 million, with MOCVD flat sequentially at $70 million and MBE declining 50% to $7 million. Data Storage bookings remained weak at $25 million. Veeco’s book-to-bill ratio was 0.75 to 1 and quarter-end backlog, after a $30 million adjustment, was $241 million.

Veeco’s third quarter 2012 revenue is currently forecasted to be between $120 million and $140 million. Earnings per share are currently forecasted to be between $0.12 to $0.29 on a GAAP basis, and $0.22 to $0.38 on a non-GAAP basis. Please refer to the attached financial table for more details.
