In the report, the analyst notes:
"ENTG's products are integral to making semiconductors and computer disk drives; the Company reported sequential improvements in sales in the second quarter of 2009. Its Contamination Control Solutions sales rose 39% sequentially from the first quarter of 2009, which the Company attributed to increase in semiconductor fab utilization rates, particularly in Asia. For the same quarter, ENTG reported a 78% jump in sales over the previous quarter for its microenvironment products, citing an improved demand for wafer shippers needed to support increased production in the semiconductor industry.
"Following its encouraging sales report in the second quarter, ENTG looks to earn at least $100 million in the third quarter, more than the nearly $92 million expected by analysts polled by Thomson Reuters."
