About ASML

ASML makes possible affordable microelectronics that improve the quality of life. ASML invents and develops complex technology for high-tech lithography, metrology and software solutions for the semiconductor industry. ASML’s guiding principle is continuing Moore’s Law towards ever smaller, cheaper, more powerful and energy-efficient semiconductors. Our success is based on three pillars: technology leadership combined with customer and supplier intimacy, highly efficient processes and entrepreneurial people. We are a multinational company with over 70 locations in 16 countries, headquartered in Veldhoven, the Netherlands. As of June 29, 2014, we employed 10,786 payroll employees and 2,820 temporary employees (measured in FTEs). ASML is traded on NYSE Euronext Amsterdam and NASDAQ under the symbol ASML.

In the first half year of 2014, we generated net sales of EUR 3,040.1 million and an operating income of EUR 772.4 million or 25.4 percent of net sales. Net income for the first half year of 2014 amounted to EUR 735.1 million or 24.2 percent of net sales, representing basic net income per ordinary share of EUR 1.67.

Below we provide an update of the risks and uncertainties we face in the second half year of 2014, followed by the ASML Operations Update, Auditor’s Involvement and 2014 Second Half Year Perspectives.

Risk Factors

In conducting our business, we face many risks that may interfere with our business objectives. Some of these risks relate to our operational processes, while others relate to our business environment. It is important to understand the nature of these risks and the impact they may have on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Some of the more relevant risks are described below. These risks are not the only ones that we face. Some risks may not yet be known to us and certain risks that we do not currently believe to be material could become material in the future.

We have assessed the risks for the second half year of 2014 and believe that the risks identified are in line with those presented in our Statutory Annual Report 2013. For a detailed description of the risks defined below, we refer to our Statutory Annual Report 2013.

Summary

Strategic Risk

 

We derive most of our revenues from the sale of a relatively small number of systems.

Risks Related to the Semiconductor Industry

 

The semiconductor industry is highly cyclical and we may be adversely affected by any downturn;

 

Our business will suffer if we do not respond rapidly to commercial and technological changes in the semiconductor industry; and

 

We face intense competition.

Governmental, Legal and Compliance Risks

 

Failure to adequately protect the intellectual property rights upon which we depend could harm our business;

 

Defending against intellectual property claims brought by others could harm our business;

 

We are subject to risks in our international operations; and

 

Because of labor laws and practices, any workforce reductions that we may seek to implement in order to reduce costs company-wide may be delayed or suspended.

Operational Risks

 

The number of systems we can produce is limited by our dependence on a limited number of suppliers of key components;

 

The pace of introduction of our new products is accelerating and is accompanied by potential design and production delays and by significant costs;

 

As lithography technologies become more complex, our R&D programs become more risky and more expensive;

 

We are dependent on the continued operation of a limited number of manufacturing facilities;

 

We may be unable to make desirable acquisitions or to integrate successfully any businesses we acquire; and

 

ASML Statutory Interim Report 2014    5   


 

Our business and future success depend on our ability to attract and retain a sufficient number of adequately educated and skilled employees.

Financial Risks

 

A high percentage of net sales is derived from a few customers; and

 

Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates could harm our results of operations.

Risks Related to our Ordinary Shares

 

We may not declare cash dividends at all or in any particular amounts in any given year;

 

Restrictions on shareholder rights may dilute voting power; and

 

Participating customers in our CCIP together own a significant amount of our ordinary shares.

ASML Statutory Interim Report 2014    7   


General

On May 30, 2013 we acquired 100 percent of the issued share capital of Cymer. Comparative financial information presented in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Profit or Loss therefore includes Cymer for one month, whereas the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Profit or Loss for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014 includes Cymer for six months.

Consolidated Sales and Gross Profit

Net sales increased by EUR 961.3 million to EUR 3,040.1 million for the first half year of 2014 from EUR 2,078.8 million for the first half year of 2013. This increase is caused by increased net system sales (EUR 680.6 million) and increased net service and field option sales (EUR 280.7 million). The increase in net system sales is primary caused by a relatively higher number of systems sold with a higher ASP whereas the increase in net service and field options sales is mainly caused by the acquisition of Cymer and the contribution of holistic lithography products.

The increase of the ASP of our systems sold can mainly be explained by the ASP of our new systems sold which increased to EUR 35.9 million for the first half year of 2014 from EUR 26.2 million for the first half year of 2013. This was the result of a shift in the mix of new systems sold towards more high-end system types (NXT:1970Ci, NXT:1960Bi and including two NXE:3300B systems).

Gross profit on sales increased by EUR 497.2 to EUR 1,298.1 million for the first half year of 2014 from EUR 800.9 million for the first half year of 2013. Gross margin increased to 42.7 percent for the first half year of 2014 from 38.5 percent for the first half year of 2013. In the first half year of 2013 the gross margin was negatively impacted by the Cymer related purchase price allocation effects. Furthermore the increase is caused by relatively higher number of systems sold with a higher gross margin.

We started 2014 with a systems backlog excluding EUV of 56 systems. During the first half year of 2014, we booked orders for 59 systems excluding EUV and recognized sales for 69 systems excluding EUV. This resulted in a systems backlog excluding EUV of 46 as of June 29, 2014.

As of June 29, 2014, our systems backlog excluding EUV was valued at EUR 1,763.1 million and includes 46 systems with an ASP of EUR 38.3 million. As of December 31, 2013, the systems backlog excluding EUV was valued at EUR 1,953.3 million and included 56 systems with an ASP of EUR 34.9 million. The ASP of our systems backlog excluding EUV as of June 29, 2014 increased compared to December 31, 2013 as a result of a shift in the mix of systems towards more high-end system types (mainly NXT:1970Ci).

Other Income

Other income consists of contributions for R&D programs under the NRE Funding Agreements from certain Participating Customers of the CCIP and amounted to EUR 40.5 million for the first half year of 2014 (first half year of 2013: EUR 30.5 million).

Research and Development

R&D investments for the first half year of 2014 of EUR 543.0 million (first half year of 2013: EUR 384.8 million), comprise of R&D costs (including net development costs not eligible for capitalization), net of credits, of EUR 401.5 million (first half year of 2013: EUR 218.4 million) and capitalization of development expenditures of EUR 141.5 million (first half year of 2013: EUR 166.4 million) were significantly higher than for the first half year of 2013. Overall R&D investments increased following the acceleration of certain R&D programs, mainly EUV and next-generation immersion, as a result of the CCIP and the acquisition of Cymer.

Selling, General and Administrative Costs

Selling, general and administrative costs increased by EUR 32.8 million to EUR 164.7 million for the first half year of 2014 from EUR 131.9 million for the first half year of 2013 mainly as a result of the acquisition of Cymer.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

We generated net cash from operating activities of EUR 550.3 million in the first half year of 2014 compared to EUR 596.2 million in the first half year of 2013. Lower net cash provided by operating activities in the first half year of 2014 compared to the first half year of 2013, relates to the increased sales levels fully off-set by decreased working capital, mainly due to an increase in inventories and a decrease in accounts receivable.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

We used EUR 215.5 million of net cash for investing activities in the first half year of 2014 and EUR 485.0 million in the first half year of 2013. Net cash used in investing activities in the first half year of 2014 included EUR 295.7 million of

 

ASML Statutory Interim Report 2014    8   


purchase of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, EUR 369.7 million of purchase of available-for-sale securities and EUR 450.0 million of maturity of available-for-sale securities.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was EUR 556.4 million in the first half year of 2014 compared to EUR 284.9 million in the first half year of 2013. Net cash used in financing activities in the first half year of 2014 mainly included EUR 268.0 million of dividend payment (first half year of 2013: EUR 216.1 million) and EUR 299.9 million of share buybacks (first half year of 2013: EUR 84.7 million).

Related Party Transactions

For disclosure regarding related party transactions see Note 13 to the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

Auditor’s Involvement

This Statutory Interim Report for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014 and the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements included herein have not been audited or reviewed by an external auditor.

2014 Second Half Year Perspectives

Operational Outlook

In EUV, we have made significant progress in 2014 and we are on track towards our target of 500 wafers per day around the end of the year. In our EUV source development program, we demonstrated improvements towards the customer requirement for volume production in 2016 of typically 1,500 wafers per day. We are working closely with customers to determine the volume production insertion points for the 10 and 7 nanometer nodes.

With regards to our markets, deliveries of our DUV systems in the second half of 2014 will be driven by memory customers, with the ramp of the 20 nm, 16 nm and 14 nm logic nodes set to continue. However, some customers continue to evaluate the timing of their deliveries to synchronize supply and demand, leading to an adjustment towards the 2014 year-end shipment forecast.

Financial Outlook

The following table sets forth our systems backlog as of June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

     6.2         4.7   

ASP of total systems backlog excluding EUV

     38.3         34.9   
                   

Our systems backlog includes only orders for which written authorizations have been accepted and system shipment and revenue recognition dates within 12 months have been assigned. Historically, orders have been subject to cancellation or delay by the customer. Due to possible customer changes in delivery schedules and to cancellation of orders, our systems backlog at any particular date is not necessarily indicative of actual sales for any succeeding period.

ASML expects full-year 2014 net sales of around EUR 5.6 billion as logic customers re-evaluate the timing of the capacity ramps for their next nodes. Production of the NXE:3300B systems is ongoing; however, three of the previously targeted eight deliveries will shift into 2015 as some customers have opted to upgrade their system from NXE:3300B to NXE:3350B specifications, addressing the next level of volume production requirements.

ASML Statutory Interim Report 2014    18   


Notes to the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements

1. General Information

Our shares are listed for trading in the form of registered shares on NASDAQ and on NYSE Euronext Amsterdam. The principal trading market of our ordinary shares is NYSE Euronext Amsterdam.

The Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements include the financial statements of ASML Holding N.V. and its subsidiaries and the special purpose entities over which ASML Holding N.V. has control (together referred to as “ASML”). All intercompany profits, balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

The Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Management on July 14, 2014.

The Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements have not been audited or reviewed by an external auditor.

2. Basis of Preparation

The Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. The Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements do not include all the information and disclosures as required in the Statutory Annual Report and should be read in conjunction with the Statutory Annual Report 2013, which has been prepared in accordance with IFRS-EU.

The Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements are stated in thousands of EUR unless otherwise indicated.

On May 30, 2013 we acquired 100 percent of the issued share capital of Cymer. Comparative financial information presented in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements therefore includes Cymer for one month, whereas the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014 includes Cymer for six months.

As a result of the Cymer acquisition, we have adjusted the figures for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 for the changes made to the provisional purchase price allocation, the settlement of the pre-existing relationships and the cost of the liability to upgrade the first 11 3300 EUV sources.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Statutory Financial Statements 2013, except for income tax expense which is recognized based on management’s best estimate of the annual income tax rate for the full financial year. Implementation of new and revised IFRS-EU over the six-month period ended June 29, 2014 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

On June 29, 2014 the following Standards and Interpretations have been issued however are not yet effective and/or have not yet been adopted by the EU and us

IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017), was issued in May 2014. The Standard is subject to endorsement by the EU. IFRS 15 is a joint project of the IASB and the FASB, to clarify the principles for recognising revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for IFRS and US GAAP that would:

 

Remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in previous revenue requirements;

 

Provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues;

 

Improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets;

 

Provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements; and

 

Simplify the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer.

We are currently in the process of determining the impact of implementing this Standard on our Consolidated (Condensed Interim) Financial Statements.

IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017), was issued in November 2009 and subsequently amended in December 16, 2011 and November 19, 2013. The Standard is subject to endorsement by the EU. IFRS 9 addresses the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities. IFRS 9 enhances the ability of investors and other users of financial information to understand the accounting

 

ASML Statutory Interim Report 2014    19   


of financial assets and reduces complexity. Furthermore, IFRS 9 addresses the accounting for changes in the fair value of financial liabilities (designated at fair value through profit or loss) attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability. We are currently in the process of determining the impact of implementing this Standard on our Consolidated (Condensed Interim) Financial Statements.

We believe that the effect of all other IFRSs not yet adopted is not expected to be material.

4. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:

 

Level 1: Valuations based on inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access.

 

Level 2: Valuations based on inputs other than level 1 inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3: Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). A financial instrument’s fair value classification is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant in the fair value measurement hierarchy.

Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Investments in money market funds (as part of our cash and cash equivalents) have fair value measurements which are all based on quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities.

Our available-for-sale financial instruments consist of Dutch Treasury Certificates and deposits with the Dutch government. Dutch Treasury Certificates are traded in an active market and the fair value is determined based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value of deposits is determined with reference to quoted market prices for similar assets or discounted cash flow analysis.

The principal market in which we execute our derivative contracts is the institutional market in an over-the-counter environment with a high level of price transparency. The market participants usually are large commercial banks. The valuation inputs for our derivative contracts are based on quoted prices and quoting pricing intervals from public data sources; they do not involve management judgment.

The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts (used for hedging purposes) approximates the NPV technique which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the forward foreign exchange contracts at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and current exchange rates.

The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of interest rate swaps (used for hedging purposes) is the NPV technique, which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the swap agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties or our own credit risk.

Our Eurobonds serve as hedged items in fair value hedge relationships in which we hedge the variability of changes in the fair value of our Eurobonds due to changes in market interest rates with interest rate swaps. The fair value changes of these interest rate swaps are recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Financial Position under derivative financial instruments (within other current assets and other non-current assets) and the carrying amounts of the Eurobonds are adjusted for the effective portion of these fair value changes only.

The fair value of our Eurobonds, including credit risk considerations, based on quoted market prices as per Bloomberg Finance LP, as per June 29, 2014 amounts to EUR 1,087.4 million (December 31, 2013: EUR 1,028.2 million).

The following table presents our financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

1 Derivative financial instruments consist of forward foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps.
2 Money market funds are part of our cash and cash equivalents.
3 Short-term investments consist of Dutch Treasury Certificates and deposits with the Dutch government.
4 Long-term debt relates to our Eurobonds (fair value as at June 29, 2014: EUR 1,075.5 million (December 31, 2013: EUR 1,017.5 million)) and excludes accrued interest.

There were no transfers between levels during the first half year of 2014 and 2013.

Financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Accounts receivable and finance receivables also approximate their fair value because of the fact that any recoverability loss is reflected in an impairment loss.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

In 2014, we recognized impairment charges of EUR 6.4 million on our property, plant and equipment, mainly relating to buildings and constructions which ceased to be used. Valuation of these assets is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy since their fair values were determined based on unobservable inputs. The impairment charge is determined based on the difference between the assets’ estimated fair value and their carrying amount.

We did not recognize any impairment charges for goodwill and other intangible assets during the first half year of 2014.

5. Liquidity

Our principal sources of liquidity consist of cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents as of June 29, 2014 of EUR 2,111.0 million, (December 31, 2013: EUR 2,330.7 million), short-term investments as of June 29, 2014 of EUR 599.7 million (December 31, 2013: EUR 679.9) and available credit facilities as of June 29, 2014 of EUR 700.0 million (December 31, 2013: EUR 700.0 million). In addition, we may from time to time raise additional capital in debt and equity markets. Our goal is to remain an investment grade rated company and maintain a capital structure that supports this.

6. Critical Accounting Judgments and Key sources of Estimation Uncertainty

In the process of applying our accounting policies, management has made some judgments that have a significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements. The critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty are consistent with those described in the Statutory Annual Report 2013.

The calculation of diluted net income per ordinary share does not assume exercise of such options or issuance of shares when such exercises or issuance would be anti-dilutive.

8. Accrued and Other Liabilities

Current portion of accrued and other liabilities      2,283,900         2,207,838   
                   

The increase in accrued and other liabilities mainly relates to the increase in deferred revenue and costs to be paid, partly offset by a decrease in down payments from customers.

We receive down payments from customers prior to shipment of systems included in our current product portfolio or systems currently under development. The decrease in down payments from customers is caused by the shipments of such systems (mainly NXE:3300B).

Deferred revenue as of June 29, 2014 mainly consists of award credits regarding free or discounted products or services as part of volume purchase agreements amounting to EUR 571.0 million (2013: EUR 660.1 million), which includes NXE:3300B systems shipped for an amount of EUR 276.4 million (2013: EUR 84.2 million). In addition, deferred revenue includes prepaid extended and enhanced (optic) warranty contracts amounting to EUR 273.0 million (2013: EUR 261.2 million).

Costs to be paid include an amount of EUR 175.2 million (2013: EUR 171.2 million) relating to the expected losses to upgrade the first 11 EUV sources in the field, which was assumed by ASML as a result of the acquisition of Cymer. In addition, costs to be paid include accrued cost for unbilled services provided by suppliers including contracted labor, outsourced services and consultancy.

9. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

The nature, scale and scope of the commitments, contingencies and guarantees are in line with those disclosed in the Statutory Annual Report 2013.

10. Income Taxes

Income tax expense is recognized based on management’s best estimate of the annual income tax rate for the full financial year. The estimated annual tax rate for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014 is 4.7 percent compared to 7.4 percent for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in the estimated annual tax rate is mainly explained by changes in the mix of income before income taxes between the Netherlands and foreign jurisdictions.

11. Segment Disclosure

ASML has one reportable segment, for the development, production, marketing, sale and servicing of advanced semiconductor equipment systems exclusively consisting of lithography related systems. Its operating results are regularly reviewed by the CODM in order to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment ASML and assess its performance.

Management reporting includes the following information:

The increase in net system sales of EUR 680.6 million to EUR 2,273.0 million for the first half year of 2014 (first half year of 2013: EUR 1,592.4 million) is primary caused by a relatively higher number of systems sold with a higher ASP.

Segment performance is evaluated by our CODM based on the US GAAP Consolidated Statements of Operations which is measured differently from the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements based on IFRS-EU.

For the six-month period ended June 29, 2014, net sales to the largest customer accounted for EUR 884.8 million or 29.1 percent of net sales (June 30, 2013: EUR 752.2 million or 36.2 percent). Our three largest customers (based on net sales) accounted for 48.0 percent of accounts receivable and finance receivables at June 29, 2014 (December 31, 2013 73.3 percent).

Substantially all of our sales were export sales during the six-month periods ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013.

12. Dividends and Share Buybacks

As part of our financing policy, we aim to pay an annual dividend that will be stable or growing over time. Annually, the Board of Management will, upon prior approval from the Supervisory Board, submit a proposal to the AGM with respect to the amount of dividend to be declared with respect to the prior year. The dividend proposal in any given year will be subject to the availability of distributable profits or retained earnings and may be affected by, among other factors, the Board of Management’s views on our potential future liquidity requirements, including for investments in production capacity, the funding of our R&D programs and for acquisition opportunities that may arise from time to time; and by future changes in applicable income tax and corporate laws. Accordingly, it may be decided to propose not to pay a dividend or to pay a lower dividend with respect to any particular year in the future.

In the AGM of April 23, 2014, a dividend of EUR 0.61 per ordinary share of EUR 0.09 nominal value was adopted for 2013. As a result, a total dividend amount of EUR 268.0 million was paid to our shareholders on May 13, 2014.

In addition to dividend payments, we intend to return cash to our shareholders on a regular basis through share buybacks or capital repayment, subject to our actual and anticipated level of liquidity requirements, our current share price, other market conditions and other relevant factors.

On April 17, 2013, we announced our intention to purchase up to an amount of EUR 1.0 billion of our own shares within the 2013-2014 timeframe, starting April 18, 2013. Up to June 29, 2014 we purchased 9.5 million shares for a total amount of EUR 610.7 million. The repurchased shares will be cancelled.

13. Related Party Transactions

On July 9, 2012, we announced our CCIP to accelerate our development of EUV technology beyond the current generation and our development of future 450mm silicon wafer technology. One of the Participating Customers, Intel, agreed to fund EUR 829 million for our R&D projects. In addition Intel also agreed to invest in ordinary shares equal to 15 percent of our issued share capital (calculated giving effect to our Synthetic Share Buyback in November 2012). Due to the equity investment, Intel is considered a related party of ASML as of July 9, 2012.

The total net sales to Intel (and its affiliates) for the first half year of 2014 amounted to EUR 544.8 compared with EUR 175.9 million for the first half year of 2013. Outstanding liability as of June 29, 2014 amounted to EUR 123.8 million (December 31, 2013: EUR 182.3 million).

There have been no transactions during the first half year of 2014, and there are currently no transactions, between ASML and any other significant shareholder and any director or officer or any relative or spouse thereof other than ordinary course compensation arrangement. During the first half year of 2014, there has been no, and at present there is no, outstanding indebtedness to ASML owed or owing by any director or officer of ASML or any associate thereof.

14. Subsequent Events

We have evaluated subsequent events until July 16, 2014 which is the issuance date of this Statutory Interim Report for the six-month period ended June 29, 2014. There are no subsequent events to report.
