                CAMTEK LTD ANNOUNCES 2002 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

                                      - - -
         Q2 REVENUES ROSE TO $6.1 MILLION, UP 31% FROM PREVIOUS QUARTER
                                      - - -
LOWER LOSS-PER-SHARE OF $(0.08), A REDUCTION OF 43% COMPARED TO PREVIOUS QUARTER


MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel - August 13, 2002 - Camtek Ltd. (NASDAQ:CAMT), a
developer, manufacturer and marketer of intelligent optical inspection
systems and related software products used to enhance processes and yields
for the Printed Circuit Board (PCB), Semiconductor Packaging, and
Microelectronics industries, today announced results for the second quarter
and six months ended June 30, 2002.

Sales for the second quarter of 2002 were $6.1 million, compared to sales of
$4.7 million in the first quarter of 2002 and $13.4 million in the second
quarter of 2001. Gross margins for the second quarter of 2002 were 39.4%,
compared to 37.1% for the first quarter of 2002, and 52.9% in the second
quarter of 2001. The reduced margins compared to the same period last year
were largely due to the decline in revenues and reduced prices. Selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased to $2.4 million from $3.0
million in the first quarter of 2002 and $3.4 million in the second quarter
of 2001. The Company reported a net loss for the second quarter of 2002 of
$(1.7) million, or $(0.08) per share fully diluted, compared to a net loss of
$(3.1) million, or $(0.14) per share fully diluted, for the first quarter of
2002 and a net profit of $1.5 million, or $0.07 per share fully diluted, for
the second quarter of 2001.

Sales for the first half of 2002 were $10.8 million, compared to sales of
$29.7 million for the first half of 2001. Gross margins for the first half of
2002 were 38.4%, and 54.1% for the first half of 2001. Selling, general and
administrative expenses in the first half of 2002 decreased to $5.4 million
from $7.4 million in the first half of 2001. The Company reported a net loss
for the first half of 2002 of $(4.8) million, or $(0.22) per share fully
diluted, compared to a net profit of  $4.5 million, or $0.20 per share fully
diluted in the first half of 2001.

The Company recently completed its rights offering, raising approximately $6
million (net of expenses) from existing shareholders (not reflected in the
results for Q2).

"The results of the second quarter, a significant improvement from the first
quarter, are in line with our guidance and expectations. The majority of our
second quarter sales were to the Pacific Rim region, predominantly China and
Taiwan, continuing a market trend of shifting centers of production," said
Rafi Amit, Camtek Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to experience an
improvement in sales in China and Asia, while U.S. and European sales
remained weak."

Mr. Amit continued: "The reduced loss-per-share of $ (0.08) indicates the
effectiveness of our on-going cost control measures. In addition, we now have
larger cash reserves following the completion of our rights offering to
existing shareholders. As visibility in our marketplaces is still limited,
our focus is on steady control and stability until recovery occurs. We
estimate that our revenues in the third quarter of 2002 will be within $6.0
to $7.5 million, reflecting a continuous improvement over the first quarter
of this year. We shall, of course, continue to closely monitor the markets,"
concluded Mr. Amit.
