FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PHOTRONICS REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
 
     First Quarter Highlights
     BROOKFIELD, Connecticut February 16, 2010 -- Photronics, Inc. (Nasdaq:PLAB), a worldwide leader in supplying innovative imaging technology solutions for the global electronics industry, today reported fiscal 2010 first quarter results for the period ended January 31, 2010.
 
     Sales for the first quarter were $98.2 million, an increase of 12% compared to $88.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. Sales of semiconductor photomasks accounted for $74.5 million, or 75.9% of revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2010, and sales of flat panel display (FPD) photomasks accounted for $23.7 million, or 24.1% of revenues. GAAP net income attributable to Photronics, Inc. for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $0.2 million, or $0.00 earnings per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to Photronics, Inc. of $10.2 million, or $0.25 loss per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2009.
 
     Pro forma net income attributable to Photronics, Inc. for the first quarter of 2010 was $0.6 million or $0.01 earnings per diluted share as compared to pro forma net loss attributable to Photronics, Inc. of $8.9 million or $0.21 loss per share for the first quarter of 2009. The section below entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” provides a definition and information about the use of pro forma financial measures in this press release and the attached financial supplement reconciles pro forma financial information with Photronics, Inc.’s financial results under GAAP.
 
     Constantine (“Deno”) Macricostas, Photronics’ chairman and chief executive officer commented, “First quarter sales improved sequentially in what is normally a slow period seasonally and marked the sixth consecutive quarterly increase of high-end integrated circuit photomask sales. Improvement in sales of both high-end flat panel display and integrated circuit photomasks confirms the continued success of our market penetration strategy,” concluded Macricostas.
 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
     Pro forma net income (loss) attributable to Photronics, Inc. and pro forma earnings (loss) per share are “non-GAAP financial measures,” as such term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Photronics, Inc. believes that pro forma net income (loss) attributable to Photronics, Inc. and pro forma earnings (loss) per share that exclude certain non-cash or non-recurring income or expense items are useful for analysts and investors to evaluate Photronics, Inc.’s future on-going performance because they enable a more meaningful comparison of Photronics, Inc.’s projected earnings and performance with its historical results from prior periods. These pro forma metrics, in particular pro forma net income (loss) attributable to Photronics, Inc. and pro forma earnings (loss) per share, are not intended to represent funds available for Photronics, Inc.’s discretionary use and are not intended to represent or be used as a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) or cash flows from operations data as measured under GAAP. The items excluded from these pro forma metrics, but included in the calculation of their closest GAAP equivalent, are significant components of consolidated statements of operations and must be considered in performing a comprehensive assessment of overall financial performance. Pro forma financial information is adjusted for the following items:
     The presentation of this financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The attached financial supplement reconciles pro forma financial information with Photronics, Inc.'s financial results under GAAP.
 
     A conference call with investors and the media to discuss these results is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. Eastern time on Wednesday, February 17, 2010. The live dial-in number is 913-312-0651. The call can also be accessed by logging onto Photronics’ web site at www.photronics.com.
