               Notes To Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

                                   (unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  interim financial  statements of
ATMI,  Inc.  ("ATMI" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with the
instructions  to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of  Regulation  S-X and do not include
all of the financial  information and disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting  principles.   In  addition,  these  unaudited  consolidated  interim
financial   statements  give  retroactive   effect  to  the  five   acquisitions
consummated  by the  Company  in 1999 which  have been  accounted  for using the
pooling-of-interests  method. These acquisitions are more fully described in the
Company's Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 1999.

     In the opinion of the management of ATMI,  Inc., the financial  information
contained herein has been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated
financial  statements  contained in the Company's Form 10-K/A for the year ended
December 31, 1999, and includes adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments)  necessary to present  fairly the unaudited  quarterly  results set
forth herein.  These unaudited  consolidated interim financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the December 31, 1999 audited consolidated financial
statements  and notes thereto  included in the  Company's  Annual Report on Form
10-K/A.  The Company's  quarterly  results  have,  in the past,  been subject to
fluctuation and, thus, the operating results for any quarter are not necessarily
indicative of results for any future fiscal period.

2. Per Share Data

     The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted  earnings

5. Segment Data

     Segment   information   included  under  the  caption   "Segment  Data"  in
Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations is incorporated  herein by reference and is an integral part of these
unaudited interim financial statements.

6. Income Taxes

     During the second  quarter  1999,  the Company was notified by the Internal
Revenue  Service of an assessment  of $2.1 million for certain tax matters.  The
Company believes that such assessment is without merit and intends to vigorously
defend its position in these tax matters.


<PAGE>

7.  Public Offering

     On April 4, 2000, the Company  completed a registered  underwritten  public
offering of 2,800,000 shares, of the Company's common stock at $45.00 per share.
Of such shares, the Company sold 1,500,000 shares and certain  stockholders sold
1,300,000  shares.  The  Company  received  net  proceeds  from the  offering of
approximately $63.5 million.

8. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In December 1999, the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") issued
Staff  Accounting  Bulletin  ("SAB")  101,  "Revenue  Recognition  in  Financial
Statements,"  which  provides  guidance  on the  recognition,  presentation  and
disclosure  of  revenue in  financial  statements  filed  with the SEC.  SAB 101
outlines the basic  criteria that must be met to recognize  revenue and provides
guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition  policies.  In June 2000,
the SEC delayed the  implementation  of this Staff Accounting  Bulletin until no
later  than the  fourth  quarter of 2000.  At this  time,  the  Company is still
assessing  the  impact  of SAB 101 on its  financial  position  and  results  of
operations.

9. Subsequent Event

     On July 7, 2000,  pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger,  the Company
issued  369,505  shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the ownership
interests of Environmentally  Safe Cleaning  Alternatives,  Inc. ("ESCA").  This
transaction will be accounted for as a pooling of interests.  ESCA is a provider
of  environmentally  safe  cleaning  services  to  the  global  microelectronics
industry.

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

Overview

     The  Company is a leading  supplier  of  materials,  equipment  and related
services used worldwide in the manufacture of semiconductor devices. The Company
specifically targets the "front-end" semiconductor materials market. This market
includes  the  processes  used to  convert  a bare  silicon  wafer  into a fully
functional wafer that contains many copies of a semiconductor  device or "chip."
The Company's customers include most of the leading semiconductor  manufacturers
in the world.

     The Company has  organized  its  operations  along two  business  segments:
Materials and  Technologies.  Materials  provides  products that are used in the
semiconductor  manufacturing process and related packaging and delivery systems.
Technologies  provides  products  that sense and  environmentally  control these
materials  while also providing  specialized  thin film  deposition  services to
semiconductor  device  manufacturers.  Technologies  also conducts the Company's
venture and government funded research and development activities.

     The Company has completed  several  acquisitions  since 1997, each of which
has been accounted for as a pooling of interests.  As a result, our consolidated
financial statements have been restated to reflect the results of these acquired
companies.

Segment Data

     The  Company  has  two  reportable   operating   segments:   Materials  and
Technologies.  The reportable  segments are each managed separately because they
manufacture  and  distribute   distinct   products  with  different   production
processes.  The Company evaluates  performance and allocates  resources based on
operating profit or loss, not including interest and other income or expense and
income taxes. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as
those  described  in the  summary  of  significant  accounting  policies  in the
Company's consolidated financial statements. Intercompany sales are not material
among  segments or operating  divisions.  The general  corporate  assets include
primarily cash and marketable securities, goodwill and other long-lived assets.

     The following  tables provide  reported  results for each of these segments
for the three and six months ended June 30 (in thousands):

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

     Revenues.  Total revenues increased 40.7% to approximately $69.4 million in
the three months  ended June 30, 2000 from  approximately  $49.3  million in the
same period in 1999. The increase in revenues was primarily  attributable to the
semiconductor industry's growth for both segments of the business. The Materials
and Technologies  segments experienced revenue growth of 38.9% and 42.5% for the
three months ended June 30, 2000,  respectively,  as compared to the same period
in the prior year.  Materials  experienced  significant revenue gains related to
the  materials  and delivery  systems  product  lines and high purity  packaging
product  lines as compared  to the same period in the prior year.  Semiconductor
manufacturing  capacity  expansion  began  to  rebound  in mid 1999  leading  to
improved sales in the Technologies segment, and demand continues to increase for
environmental and sensing products and thin film deposition services.

     Gross Profit.  Gross profit increased 40.6% to approximately  $37.0 million
in the  quarter  ended June 30,  2000 from  approximately  $26.3  million in the
quarter  ended  June  30,  1999.  The  growth  in  gross  profit  was  primarily
attributable to the increased  sales levels  experienced by both segments of the
Company.  Gross margin  remained at 53.3% of revenues in the quarter  ended June
30, 2000 consistent with the prior year quarter,  as favorable shifts in product
mix were offset by the impact of ramping  additional  manufacturing  capacity to
support future growth.

     Research  and  Development  Expenses.  Research  and  development  expenses
increased 55.4% to approximately $6.9 million in the three months ended June 30,
2000 from  approximately  $4.5 million in the same quarter of 1999. The increase
in the  second  quarter  of 2000 was  principally  due to  continued  efforts to
develop  advanced  materials,  including  development  efforts  on the  SDS  and
chemicals  product lines, and continued  development  efforts in the sensing and
abatement  product  lines.  Additionally,   the  Company  continued  to  support
development efforts in the Emosyn venture. As a percentage of revenues, research
and development expenses increased to 10.0% in the 2000 quarter from 9.0% in the
1999 quarter.

     Selling,  General  and  Administrative   Expenses.   Selling,  general  and
administrative  expenses  increased 8.0% to  approximately  $16.5 million in the
three months ended June 30, 2000 from  approximately  $15.3  million in the same
period in 1999. Selling,  general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues decreased to 23.7% in the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to
30.9% in the same quarter a year ago. Administration costs decreased as a result
of continued  cost savings  initiatives  tied to the  integration  activities of
business  acquisitions,  and lower  executive  compensation  paid to  members of
management of certain  acquired  businesses.  Offsetting  the cost savings noted
above were increases in legal costs associated with defending and protecting the
Company's  intellectual  property and costs associated with implementation of an
enterprise-wide software system.

     Merger  and  Related  Costs.  The second  quarter  1999  operating  results
included merger and related costs of approximately $6.8 million,  including $2.4
million of investment  banker fees,  legal fees and accounting  fees recorded in
the quarter ended June 30, 1999 in connection with the  investigation,  analysis
and May 1999  closing of the  TeloSense,  Delatech  and ACSI  transactions.  The
acquisition of Delatech also resulted in a $4.4 million asset impairment  charge
for inventory ($1.0 million) and goodwill ($3.4 million) associated with certain
existing environmental  abatement systems product lines which were determined to
be impaired  based on the Company's  assessment of estimated net cash flows from
such product line.

     Operating Income.  Operating income increased  approximately  106% to $13.6
million for the three  months ended June 30, 2000 from $6.6  million,  excluding
one-time  merger and related costs,  in the second quarter 1999.  Materials' and
Technologies'  operating  income  for the  three  months  ended  June  30,  2000
increased  approximately  69% and 221%,  respectively,  to $8.4 million and $5.1
million from $5.0 million and $1.6 million,  respectively,  from the same period
in 1999. This increase  reflected gains due to strong market  conditions  within
the industry and  continued  market  penetration  of products  during the second
quarter of 2000.

     The significant  revenue  increase in the second quarter of 2000,  combined
with  stronger  margins and the business  integration  initiatives,  resulted in
higher  operating  income  within  the  Materials  and  Technologies   segments.
Materials' and Technologies'  operating income, as a percentage of revenues, was
25.4% and 14.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared
to 20.9% and 6.3% for the three months ended June 30, 1999, respectively.

     Other Income,  Net.  Other income,  including  interest  income and expense
increased to approximately  $2.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 from
approximately  $0.9 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The increase for
the three months ended June 30, 2000 was attributable to an increase in interest
income to $2.1  million  from $1.2  million  for the same  period in 1999.  This
increase  was the result of  increased  cash from the net  proceeds of the stock
offering  completed early in the second quarter of 2000, and the sale of certain
investments by the Company during the first quarter of 2000.

     Income  Taxes.  Income tax  expense  increased  approximately  305% to $5.7
million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from $1.4 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999. The Company's  income tax expense related  primarily
to United  States  federal,  state  and  foreign  tax  liabilities,  which  were
partially offset by various foreign sales corporation  benefits and research and
development  credits. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30,
2000 was 37%, in line with the statutory  rate for the Company.  The  difference
between  the  consolidated  effective  income  tax  rate  and the  U.S.  federal
statutory  rate for 1999 was primarily  attributed to state income taxes and the
effects of certain non-deductible merger related costs.

     Minority Interest.  Minority interest represents the 30.0% interest held by
K.C.  Tech Co.,  Ltd. in the  operations  of  ADCS-Korea,  a South Korean chusik
hoesa, which is a joint venture established to manufacture,  sell and distribute
chemicals to the semiconductor and related industries in South Korea.

     Earnings per Share.  On a pro-forma  basis,  excluding the  after-tax  $5.5
million charge related to acquisitions closed during the second quarter of 1999,
net income  improved to $9.8  million,  or $0.32 per diluted share in the second
quarter of 2000  compared  with $4.6 million or $0.17 per diluted  share for the
second quarter of 1999. Loss per share-assuming  dilution,  including the merger
and related cost charge,  was ($0.03) for the second  quarter of 1999.  Weighted
average shares  outstanding  for the second  quarter of 2000 were  approximately
30.5 million  compared to  approximately  26.4 million for the second quarter of
1999,  primarily  due to the public  offering of 1.5 million  shares  during the
second quarter of 2000, and that common stock  equivalents  were not included in
the 1999 number due to their anti-dilutive effect.

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

     Revenues. Total revenues increased 50.9% to approximately $130.6 million in
the six months ended June 30, 2000 from approximately  $86.6 million in the same
period in 1999.  The Materials and  Technologies  segments  experienced  revenue
growth of 47.5% and 54.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2000,  respectively,
as compared to the same period in the prior year.  The  increase in revenues was
primarily  attributable to the semiconductor  industry's growth during this time
period,  as  well as the  introduction  of new  products  and  increased  market
penetration.

     Gross Profit.  Gross profit increased 52.7% to approximately  $69.2 million
in the six months ended June 30, 2000 from  approximately  $45.3  million in the
six months  ended June 30,  1999.  As a  percentage  of  revenues,  gross margin
increased  to 53.0% in the first half of 2000 from 52.3% of revenues in the same
period in 1999. The increase was due principally to favorable product mix shifts
in the product  lines within the Materials  segment and increased  manufacturing
efficiencies  from increased sales volume in the abatement and sensing equipment
and  deposition  services  business  lines  in  the  Technologies  segment.  The
favorable  changes in mix and volumes were  partially  offset by the addition of
manufacturing capacity to support future growth in these operating segments.

     Research  and  Development  Expenses.  Research  and  development  expenses
increased 51.2% to  approximately  $12.8 million in the first six months of 2000
from approximately $8.5 million in the first six months of 1999. The increase in
the first six months of 2000  represented  the  Company's  continued  efforts to
develop  advanced  materials,  including  development  efforts  on the  SDS  and
chemicals  product  lines,  and  continued  development  work in the sensing and
abatement  product  lines.  Additionally,   the  Company  continued  to  support
development efforts in the Emosyn venture. As a percentage of revenues, research
and development  expenses were 9.8% in the first half of 2000 and the first half
of 1999.

     Selling,  General  and  Administrative   Expenses.   Selling,  general  and
administrative  expenses  increased 8.3% to approximately  $30.5 million for the
six months  ended June 30,  2000 from  approximately  $28.2  million in the same
period in 1999. As a percentage of revenues,  these  expenses  declined to 23.4%
for the six months  ended June 30, 2000  compared to 32.6% for the same period a
year ago. The decrease was due to decreased  administrative costs resulting from
continued  cost  savings  initiatives  tied  to the  integration  activities  of
business  acquisitions,  and the  decrease  in  executive  compensation  paid to
members  of  management  of certain  acquired  businesses.  Offsetting  the cost
savings were increases in legal costs  associated  with defending and protecting
the Company's  intellectual property and costs associated with implementation of
an enterprise-wide software system.

     Merger and Related  Costs.  During the second  quarter of 1999, the Company
recorded merger and related costs of approximately $6.8 million,  including $2.4
million of investment  banker fees,  legal fees and accounting  fees recorded in
the quarter ended June 30, 1999 in connection with the  investigation,  analysis
and May 1999  closing of the  TeloSense,  Delatech  and ACSI  transactions.  The
acquisition of Delatech also resulted in a $4.4 million asset impairment  charge
for inventory ($1.0 million) and goodwill ($3.4 million) associated with certain
existing environmental  abatement systems product lines which were determined to
be impaired  based on the Company's  assessment of estimated net cash flows from
such product line.

     Operating Income.  Operating income increased  approximately  three fold to
$25.8  million  for the six  months  ended  June 30,  2000  from  $8.6  million,
excluding  one-time  merger  and  related  costs,  in the second  quarter  1999.
Materials'  operating  income for the six months  ended June 30, 2000  increased
approximately 95% to $16.8 million,  and Technologies'  operating income for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 increased to $9.1 million from approximately $0.1
million compared with the same period in 1999. This increase reflected the gains
primarily  due to the  increased  product  sales within the  Materials  segment,
related to higher demand for the SDS product line,  and within the  Technologies
segment's  epitaxial services  business,  due to the higher demand for thin film
deposition services.

     Other Income,  Net. Other income,  net,  increased to  approximately  $11.4
million  for the six months  ended June 30,  2000 from $1.7  million for the six
months  ended  June 30,  1999.  The first  quarter  of 2000  included  a gain of
approximately  $9.5  million on the sale of certain  equity  investments  by the
Company,  offset by a write-off of an equity  investment of  approximately  $1.3
million. Interest income increased to $3.2 million for the six months ended June
30, 2000 from $2.3 million for the same six month period in 1999 due to proceeds
received of  approximately  $63.5 million related to the Company's  public stock
offering  in April  2000 and  increased  cash  balances  derived  from  improved
operating results of the Company.

     Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was
$13.7  million  which was an increase of $10.9 million from $2.8 million for the
same six  month  period  in 1999.  The  Company's  income  tax  expense  related
primarily to United States federal, state and foreign tax liabilities, which are
partially offset by various foreign sales corporation  benefits and research and
development  credits.  The  effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30,
2000 was 37%, in line with the statutory rate of the Company,  compared to 80.8%
for the six  months  ended June 30,  1999.  The  effective  tax rate for the six
months ended June 30, 2000  reflected  the  restated  tax rate for  acquisitions
completed in 1999 and did not reflect  various  credits and foreign tax benefits
that the  Company  would have  experienced  on a  consolidated  tax  basis.  The
difference  between  the  consolidated  effective  income  tax rate and the U.S.
federal  statutory  rate,  for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was primarily
attributed  to state  income  taxes and the  effects of  certain  non-deductible
merger related costs.

     Earnings per Share.  On a pro-forma  basis,  excluding the  after-tax  $5.5
million  charge  related to  acquisitions  closed during the first six months of
1999, net income  improved to $23.3  million,  or $0.78 per diluted share in the
first six months of 2000  compared  with $6.1 million or $0.22 per diluted share
for the same period in 1999. Earnings per share-assuming dilution, including the
merger and related  cost  charge,  were $0.02 for the six months  ended June 30,
1999.  Earnings per share-assuming  dilution in the 2000 period reflected a 5.8%
increase   in  weighted   average   shares   outstanding-assuming   dilution  to
approximately  29.7  million in the first six months of 2000 from  approximately
28.1 million in the first six months of 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     To date,  the  Company  has  financed  its  activities  through  cash  from
operations,  the sale of equity,  external research and development funding, and
various lease and debt  instruments.  The Company's working capital increased to
$200.4 million at June 30, 2000 from $121.2 million at December 31, 1999.


     Net cash provided by operations was  approximately  $1.7 million during the
six months  ended June 30, 2000  compared to $8.9  million  provided  during the
first  half  of  1999.   This  resulted   primarily  from  increased   operating
profitability  of the Company and improved  working capital in the first half of
2000 as compared to the first half of 1999. The  improvement in working  capital
was primarily caused by an increase in accounts payable and an increase in other
liabilities,   offset  by  significant  increases  in  accounts  receivable  and
inventory.  The $6.8 million of merger and related  costs  expensed in the first
half of 1999  reduced cash  generated  from  operations  by  approximately  $2.0
million during the six-month period ended June 30, 1999.

     Net cash used by  investing  activities  was  approximately  $74.4  million
during the six months ended June 30, 2000, and approximately $1.0 million during
the six months ended June 30, 1999.  On April 4, 2000,  the Company  completed a
registered  underwritten  public  stock  offering of  2,800,000  shares,  of the
Company's  common stock at $45.00 per share.  Of such  shares,  the Company sold
1,500,000 shares,  and certain  stockholders sold 1,300,000 shares.  The Company
received net proceeds  from the offering of  approximately  $63.5  million.  The
Company  invested  approximately  $58.9 million of the proceeds  raised from the
sale of its common stock in marketable  securities  for future  working  capital
requirements and potential merger and acquisition  activities.  The Company also
received  net  proceeds  of  $10.6  million  related  to  the  sale  of  certain
investments  in the first six months of 2000.  Capital  expenditures  were $15.5
million  and $3.9  million  for the six  months  ended  June 30,  2000 and 1999,
respectively.  The  2000  expenditures  primarily  related  to  installation  of
additional  manufacturing capacity at the Company's expitaxial services facility
in Meza, Arizona. In 1999, the expenditures primarily related to installation of
additional manufacturing capacity in Danbury, Connecticut.

     Net cash provided by financing  activities was approximately  $72.8 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2000. Net cash used by financing activities
was approximately  $6.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 1999. As of
June 30,  2000,  the Company  had  financed  portions  of its capital  equipment
purchases,  particularly  the  silicon  epitaxial  capacity  expansion,  through
capital  leases with  approximately  $9.3 million of capital  lease  obligations
outstanding.  During  the first six months of 2000,  the  Company  entered  into
approximately  $6.8  million  of new  capital  lease  obligations  to  fund  the
epitaxial capacity expansion.  During the first six months of 2000 and 1999, the
Company made payments on capital leases of  approximately  $1.3 million and $1.2
million,  respectively.  In the first six months of 2000 and 1999,  the  Company
made  payments  on  notes  of  approximately  $1.1  million  and  $6.4  million,
respectively.

     ATMI believes its existing cash balances,  marketable securities,  existing
sources of liquidity  and  anticipated  funds from  operations  will satisfy its
projected working capital and other cash  requirements  through at least the end
of 2001. However, ATMI believes the level of financing resources available to it
is an  important  competitive  factor in its  industry  and may seek  additional
capital  prior to the end of that period.  Additionally,  ATMI  considers,  on a
continuing  basis,   potential   acquisitions  of  technologies  and  businesses
complementary to its current business.


Forward-Looking Statements

     The  statements  contained  in this  report  which are not  historical  are
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. Examples of forward-looking  statements include, without limitation,
statements by ATMI regarding financial projections,  expectations for demand and
sales  of new  and  existing  products,  market  and  technology  opportunities,
business strategies, business opportunities, objectives of management for future
operations and  semiconductor  industry and market segment growth.  In addition,
when used in this report, the words "anticipate," "plan," "believe," "estimate,"
"expect" and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management
are  intended  to  identify  forward-looking   statements.  All  forward-looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially
from those  discussed  in, or implied by, the  forward-looking  statements  as a
result of certain factors including,  but not limited to, changes in the pattern
of semiconductor  industry growth,  the markets for or customer  interest in the
products  of ATMI,  product  and market  competition,  delays or problems in the
development and  commercialization of products,  technological changes affecting
the competencies of ATMI and  unanticipated  internal and/or third party delays.
The cautionary statements made in this report should be read as being applicable
to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

     Interest Rate Risk. As of June 30, 2000 the Company's  cash included  money
market  securities  and  commercial  paper.  Due to the  short  duration  of the
Company's investment portfolio,  an immediate 10% change in interest rates would
not have a  material  effect  on the  fair  value  of the  Company's  portfolio;
therefore,  the Company would not expect the operating  results or cash flows to
be affected to any significant degree by the effect of a sudden change in market
interest rates on the Company's securities portfolio.

     Foreign  Currency  Exchange  Risk. A  substantial  portion of the Company's
sales are  denominated  in U.S.  dollars  and,  as a  result,  the  Company  has
relatively  little  exposure to foreign  currency  exchange risk with respect to
sales made. This exposure may change over time as business  practices evolve and
could have a material impact on the Company's  financial  results in the future.
The  Company  does  not  use  forward  exchange  contracts  to  hedge  exposures
denominated in foreign currencies or any other derivative financial  instruments
for trading or  speculative  purposes.  The effect of an immediate 10% change in
exchange  rates  would  not  have a  material  impact  on the  Company's  future
operating results or cash flows.
