Stock Repurchase Program

On February 12, 2007, MKS’ Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (the “Program”) for the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of its outstanding stock over the subsequent two years. The repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased under the Program will depend on a variety of factors, including the price of our common stock, corporate and regulatory requirements, capital availability, and other market conditions. The Program may be discontinued at any time at the discretion of the Company and its Board of Directors. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, we repurchased 3,469,000 shares of common stock for $65,272,000 for an average price of $18.81 and during the three months ended March 31, 2007, we repurchased 510,000 shares of common stock for $12,875,000 for an average price of $25.24.

UPDATE 1-RESEARCH ALERT-JPM cuts Cymer, ups MKS Instruments
Fri Apr 18, 2008 8:25am EDT

April 18 (Reuters) - J.P. Morgan Securities downgraded chip equipment maker Cymer Inc (CYMI.O: Quote, Profile, Research) and upgraded rival MKS Instruments Inc (MKSI.O: Quote, Profile, Research) to align its ratings to companies in U.S. chipmaker Applied Materials' (AMAT.O: Quote, Profile, Research) thin film solar and flat panel equipment supply chain.

The brokerage cut its rating on Cymer to "neutral" from "overweight," while raising MKS Instruments to "overweight" from "neutral."

MKS Instruments, whose largest customer is Applied Materials, sells residual gas analyzers that monitor greenhouse gas emissions and analyst Jay Deahna expects this business to double in 2008.

While Deahna believes in the long-term potential and technological leadership of Cymer, he expects the stock to be range bound until a clear recovery of demand and the company demonstrates stable or better four-quarter market share.

Deahna trimmed Cymer's earnings estimate for 2008, citing weak lithography orders in the first quarter.

He expects strong business in thin film solar to drive growth for MKS Instruments, which makes equipment used in producing microchips.

MKS Instruments is a safe solar play as revenue on most solar components is recognized on shipment and not upon meeting certain performance specifications or efficiency requirements of the panel, Deahna said. (Reporting by Bhaswati Mukhopadhyay in Bangalore; Editing by Pratish Narayanan)
