I just made a double entry for some reason, so I'll add some thoughts. They have a new CFO as of 6/30. Looks like he might have some ideas on aggressive growth.

They've also announced a new line of 300mm wafer sorters. I wonder what this is exactly? Is it an extension of the yield improvement equipment for DRAM, or is it a broad based product that will work with any type of wafer?

I also see ESIO adding production space which means they are straining against their current size, with a great backlog and lots of growing business segments. Adding shares will give them some great flexibility assuming they can make good value from them. With a new CFO, I suppose we must wonder if he will be as good as Barry, but we shall see. Generally, ESI has always been very focused and seems to have good strategic product building skills.

Regards,

Mark
