S&P MAINTAINS BUY RECOMMENDATION ON SHARES OF BROOKS AUTOMATION Recent Price: $14.48 Recommendation: Buy ** Subject to the usual approvals, BRKS agrees to acquire Helix Technology (HELX 15.9*) via a swap of 1.11 BRKS shares per HELX share, a premium of approximately 25% based on Friday's closing prices, and a total deal value of about $454 million. We believe the significant premium is justified by our view of product synergies and our estimate of as much $20 million in annual cost savings, though we would note integration risks. BRKS also modestly lowers June-Q revenue to $111-$113M from previous $115-$120 million. We have cut our FY 05 (Sep.) EPS estimate to $0.30 from $0.39. CMcArdle 07/11/2005 10:12:35
