VEECO INSTRUMENTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included. Operating
results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
Earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common
and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.
NOTE 2--ACQUISITIONS
On April 10, 1997, Veeco Instruments Inc. ("Veeco" or the Company")
acquired certain assets and personnel of the PVD ("Physical Vapor
Deposition") business pertaining to data storage of Materials Research
Corporation for cash plus the assumption of certain liabilities. The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Accordingly, a portion of the purchase price was allocated to the net assets
acquired based on their estimated fair values as determined by an independent
appraisal, including $4.2 million allocated to in-process engineering and
development projects. These projects have not reached technological
feasibility and have no alternative future uses and thus have been expensed
as of the date of acquisition.
On July 25, 1997, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Veeco Acquisition
Corp., merged into Wyko Corporation ("Wyko") of Tucson, Arizona, a leading
supplier of optical interferometric measurement systems for the data storage and
semiconductor industries. Under the merger, Wyko shareholders received 2,863,810
shares of Veeco common stock and holders of options to acquire Wyko common stock
received options to acquire an aggregate of 136,190 shares of Veeco common
stock. The merger is accounted for as a pooling of interests transaction and,
accordingly, historical financial data has been restated to include Wyko data.
Merger expenses of approximately $2.3 million pertaining to investment banking,
legal fees and other one-time transaction costs were charged to operating
expenses during three month period ended September 30, 1997. The following
unaudited pro forma data summarizes the combined results of operations of the
Company and Wyko as though the merger had occurred at the beginning of fiscal
year 1994.

NOTE 5--OTHER INFORMATION
Total interest paid for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
was $290,000 and $174,000 respectively. The Company made income tax payments of
$4,114,000 and $4,245,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
NOTE 6--NEW ACCOUNTING PROUNCEMENT
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
128, "Earnings Per Share", which is effective for both interim and annual
financial statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997. At that time,
the Company will be required to change the method currently used to compute
earnings per share and to restate all prior periods. Under the new requirements
for calculating primary earnings per share, the dilutive effect of stock options
will be excluded. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 128 on the calculation of
primary and fully diluted earnings per share is not expected to be material.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND 1996
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1997 increased by
approximately $14.3 million or 50.3% over the comparable 1996 period. The
increase principally reflects continuing growth in sales of ion beam systems
and sales of process metrology products. Sales in the U.S. increased
approximately 84.0% while international sales included an approximately
59.5% increase in AsiaPacific, a 24.9% increase in Europe, and a 20.8%
decrease in Japan. The Company believes that there will continue to be
quarter to quarter variations in the geographic concentration of sales.
Process equipment sales of approximately $24.0 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1997 increased by approximately $10.8 million or
81.8% over the comparable period in 1996, as a result of increased demand
from the data storage industry for equipment used in the production of MR
("magnetorestive") and GMR ("giant magnetorestive") heads for high-density
hard drives. Of this increase, approximately 62.7% was due to growth in
volume, with the balance of the increase due to an approximately 41.4% higher
average selling price of a system resulting from a shift in customer demand
to multi-process modules with increased automation. Sales of process
metrology products for the three months ended September 30, 1997 of
approximately $14.2 million increased by approximately $3.7 million or 34.9%
over the comparable 1996 period principally due to an increase in volume.
Sales of industrial measurement products for the three months ended September
30, 1997 of approximately $4.6 million was equivalent to the comparable
period in 1996.
Veeco booked approximately $43.6 million of orders for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 compared to approximately $24.5 million of orders in
the comparable 1996 period, reflecting the continued industry transition to the
next generation MR thin film magnetic heads and the semiconductor industry
investment in advanced products.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 1997 of approximately $20.2 million
represents an increase of approximately $6.9 million over the comparable 1996
period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 47.1% for 1997
from 46.7% for 1996 principally due to volume increases discussed above.
Research and development expense in the third quarter of 1997 increased by
approximately $1.6 million or 47.8% over the comparable period of 1996 as the
Company increased its R&D investment in its process equipment and process
metrology product lines.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $2.2
million for the three months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the comparable
1996 period. The increase was primarily due to approximately $1.9 million of
additional selling expense comprised of sales commissions related to the higher
sales volume, as well as increased compensation and travel expense.
In connection with the merger with Wyko Corporation, the Company incurred
approximately $2.3 million of merger related fees in the three months ended
September 30, 1997 consisting of investment banking, legal and other transaction
costs.
Operating income, including the effects of the one-time merger expenses of
approximately $2.3 million, increased to approximately $5.2 million or 12.0% of
net sales for the third quarter of 1997 compared to approximately $4.2 million
or 14.9% of net sales for the third quarter of 1996, due to the above noted
factors.
Income taxes for 1997 amounted to approximately $2.0 million or 37.0% of
income before income taxes in 1997 as compared to $1.7 million or 37.7 % of
income before taxes for the same period in 1996.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND 1996
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 increased by
approximately $39.7 million or 48.0% over the comparable 1996 period. The
increase principally reflects continuing growth in ion beam system sales and
sales of process metrology products. Sales in the U.S. increased approximately
68.3% while international sales included an approximately 54.2 % increase in
Asia Pacific, a 22.8% increase in Europe, and a 5.0% decrease in Japan. The
Company believes that there will continue to be period to period variations in
the geographic concentration of sales.
Process equipment sales of approximately $64.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 increased by approximately $27.5 million or
74.1% over the comparable period in 1996, driven principally by increased
demand from the data storage industry for equipment used in the production of
MR and GMR heads for high-density hard drives. Of this increase,
approximately 54.8% was due to growth in volume, with the balance of the
increase due to an approximately 43.5% higher average selling price of a
system resulting from a shift in customer demand to multi-process modules
with increased automation. Sales of process metrology products for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 of approximately $43.0 million increased by
approximately $12.7 million or 41.9% over the comparable 1996 period
principally due to an increase in volume. Sales of industrial measurement
products for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 of approximately $14.8
million was equivalent to the comparable period in 1996.
Veeco booked approximately $127.4 million of orders for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 compared to approximately $86.6 million of orders in
the comparable 1996 period, reflecting both the increased demand for high
density hard drives and the continued industry transition to the next
generation MR thin film magnetic heads and the semiconductor industry
investment in advanced products.
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 of approximately
$57.7 million represents an increase of approximately 48.7% or approximately
$18.9 million over the comparable 1996 period. Gross profit as a percentage of
net sales of 47.1% in 1997 remained relatively unchanged from 46.9% in 1996.
Research and development expense in the first nine months of 1997 increased
by approximately $4.0 million or 44.0% over the comparable period of 1996 as the
Company increased its R&D investment principally in its process equipment and
process metrology product lines.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 increased by approximately $6.1 million compared to the first
nine months of 1996. The increase was primarily due to approximately $4.7
million of additional selling expense comprised of sales commissions related to
the higher sales volume, as well as increased compensation and travel expense as
a result of the hiring of additional sales and service personnel to support the
Company's continuing growth.
In connection with acquisition of certain assets of the PVD business
pertaining to the data storage of Materials Research Corporation in April 1997,
the Company expensed approximately $4.2 million during the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 representing the estimated fair values of in-process
engineering and development projects that had not reached technological
feasibility and had no future alternative uses. As previously noted above in
connection with the merger with Wyko Corporation, the Company incurred
approximately $2.3 million of merger related expenses during the nine months
ended September 30, 1997.
Operating income, including the effects of the one-time charges of
approximately $6.5 million described above increased to approximately $14.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to approximately
$12.3 million for the comparable 1996 period, due to the above noted factors.
10
<PAGE>
Income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 amounted to
approximately $5.8 million or 37.9 % of income before income taxes as compared
to approximately $4.9 million or 38.0% of income before income taxes for the
same period in 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operations totaled approximately $5.6 million for both
the first nine months of 1997 and 1996. Veeco made capital expenditures of
$4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to
$2.3 million in the comparable 1996 period. Capital expenditures in the first
nine months of 1997 principally reflect investments in building improvements,
laboratory tools and business information systems.
Veeco used approximately $4.4 million in cash during the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 to acquire the net assets of the PVD business.
Veeco anticipates it will expend approximately $7 to $8 million over the
next six months to upgrade its existing manufacturing facilities and business
information systems and to acquire a new manufacturing facility.
The Company believes that existing cash balances together with cash
generated from operations and amounts available under the Company's credit
facility will be sufficient to meet the Company's projected working capital and
other cash flow requirements for the foreseeable future.
