Backlog

Varian Semiconductor had backlog of $133.8 million and $179.0 million at the end of fiscal years 2008 and 2007, respectively. Varian Semiconductor includes in its backlog only those orders for which it has accepted purchase orders and assigned system shipment dates within the following twelve months. Orders are typically subject to cancellation or rescheduling by customers. Due to possible changes in system delivery schedules, cancellation of orders and delays in systems shipments, Varian Semiconductor’s backlog at any particular date is not necessarily an accurate predictor of revenue for any succeeding period.
