In a first step the financial situation of KLA-Tencor Corporation was reviewed using public available data of last year's financial statements and press releases. In a second step the data was discussed in comparison to industry peers and financial ratios were calculated. Long term financial planning approaches were reviewed and planning models were discussed. In a last step a "percentage of sales" model was applied to develop a potential scenario for KLA-Tencor Corp. over the next 4 years until 2012 based on forecasts of market research institutes.
