Potential for ”Cold Material Processing” with Ultrashort Pulse Lasers

Suitable for bio-absorbable polymers

Ultrashort pulse lasers such asfemto- and picosecond lasersopen up new applications in various markets, i.e. in themedical device, semiconductor orsolar sector

So-called „cold lasers“ processmaterials faster than energy candiffuse within the atomic lattice. Therefore no heat is transferredto the surrounding material, whicheliminates any recast and burr. Dramatically reduced post-processing is the consequence.

NEW PROCESSES & APPLICATIONS SUPPORTUSPL GROWTH

ROFIN one of first companies to commercialize technology for industrial applications

KEY DRIVERS OF MARGIN IMPROVEMENT

Blended fiber laser gross margin improvement through optimized design and vertical integration

25% reduction in high-power fiber laser product cost projected for 2015, significantly improving gross margins, with further improvement expected in 2016

Gross margin improvement based on current pricing outlook

Incremental benefits from growing scale in fiber lasers & ultrashort pulse lasers

Greater absorption of fixed costs

Introduction of new applications with ultrashort pulse lasers

New product introductions across existing technologies

Projecting to achieve consolidated gross margins of approximately 40% by the end of FY 2015
