Jim Feldhan to Speak at SEMI Arizona Outlook Dinner

High Growth End Markets & Semiconductor Forecast Will be the Focus of President’s Presentation

Phoenix, Arizona October 17, 2005 - Semico Research announced today that Jim Feldhan, President, will be a featured speaker at the SEMI Arizona Outlook Dinner on October 19, 2005 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., at the Hilton Phoenix Airport Hotel.

The SEMI Arizona Outlook Dinners give SEMI members and other constituents a venue to have dinner with industry colleagues, to network, to hear from industry leaders and to keep up-to-date with current trends in the semiconductor industry.

Semico Research developed the Inflection Point Indicator (IPI) to assist in forecasting semiconductor revenues approximately three quarters in advance. IPI—combined with our bill-of-materials, end-market analysis and primary research—has led Semico Research to accurately forecast the industry ahead of all other prognosticators. “We believe there are some distinct applications driving growth not to mention a rise in manufacturing capacity utilization that will bode well for a robust 2006,” said Mr. Feldhan.

SEZ is the corporate sponsor for this event.
