Business Outlook
For the first quarter of fiscal 2015, Applied expects net sales to be in the range of flat to up 5 percent from the previous quarter. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.25 to $0.29, the mid-point of which would be flat with the previous quarter and up by 17 percent year over year.
This outlook excludes known charges related to completed acquisitions and integration costs of $0.03 per share. The outlook does not exclude other non-GAAP adjustments that may arise subsequent to this release.

Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures
Management uses non-GAAP adjusted results to evaluate the company’s operating and financial performance in light of business objectives and for planning purposes. These measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Applied believes these measures enhance investors’ ability to review the company’s business from the same perspective as the company’s management and facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Webcast Information
Applied Materials will discuss these results during an earnings call that begins at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time today. A live webcast will be available at www.appliedmaterials.com. A replay will be available on the website beginning at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time today.
