ITEM 5.   OTHER EVENTS.

         On July 23, 1999, the Registrant publicly disseminated a press release
announcing its 1999 second quarter and year-to-date results.

         Revenues for the Registrant's second quarter ended June 30, 1999 were
$5,107,000, slightly less than the $5,304,000 reported in the comparable quarter
for 1998. For the first half of 1999, total revenues increased 37 percent to
$9,555,000 from $7,001,000 reported for the first six months of 1998. The
increase in revenues for the first six months was due primarily to revenue
derived from the recognition of revenue from the sale of Ibis 1000 implanters
and a 31 percent increase in wafer product sales.

         Net income for the second quarter of 1999 was $248,000 or $0.03 per
share, compared to $86,000, or $0.01 per share, in the comparable period for
1998. For the six months ended June 30, 1999, net income was $494,000, or $0.07
per share, compared to a net loss of $823,000, or $0.12 per share, in the
comparable period a year ago.

         The information contained in the press release is incorporated herein
by reference and filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                           IBIS TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
               ANNOUNCES PROFITABLE SECOND QUARTER AND FIRST HALF;
                        FIRST HALF REVENUES INCREASE 37%


DANVERS, MA - July 23, 1999 -- Ibis Technology Corporation (NASDAQ:IBIS), a
leading manufacturer and supplier of SIMOX-SOI (Separation by IMplantation of
OXygen / Silicon-On-Insulator) implantation equipment and wafers for
semiconductor manufacturers, today announced its financial results for the
second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999.

Revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 1999 were $5,107,000, slightly
less than the $5,304,000 reported in the comparable 1998 quarter. For the first
half of 1999, total revenues increased 37 percent to $9,555,000 from $7,001,000
reported for the first six months of 1998. The increase in revenues for the
first six months was due primarily to revenue derived from the recognition of
revenue from the sale of Ibis 1000 implanters and a 31 percent increase in wafer
product sales.

Net income for the 1999 second quarter was $248,000 or $0.03 per share, compared
to $86,000, or $0.01 per share, in the similar period a year ago. For the six
months ended June 30, 1999, net income was $494,000, or $0.07 per share,
compared to a net loss of $823,000, or $0.12 per share, a year ago.

Martin J. Reid, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ibis Technology
Corporation, stated: "In our second quarter we shipped a record number of
wafers. We believe that the commercial phase of SIMOX-SOI adoption by the
industry has begun and that production of SIMOX-SOI-based devices should
accelerate over the next two years.

"We continue to see an increase in the level of interest regarding SIMOX-SOI
technology by other leading semiconductor manufacturers who are seeking to
remain competitive in an increasingly aggressive market environment. We are also
seeing an increase in wafer requirements from our main wafer customers who
appear to be ramping up their production of integrated circuits or optical
receivers on SIMOX-SOI.

Mr. Reid continued: "These are exciting and challenging times for both our
industry and our Company. We look forward to working with our customers to
further expand the industry's acceptance of SIMOX-SOI technology and continuing
the efforts to move into mainstream commercial production."
