What are KLA's specific financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2014?

The 8-K filing does not contain the specific financial results within the report itself. Investors must refer to Exhibit 99.1, the press release issued on April 24, 2014, which contains the detailed financial information for Q3 FY14.

Why is this 8-K filing so brief?

This 8-K filing is brief because its primary purpose is to notify investors and the market that a press release containing the company's quarterly financial results has been issued. The detailed financial information is provided in the accompanying press release as an exhibit.

Is the information in this filing legally binding in the same way as other parts of an SEC filing?

No, the information furnished in this 8-K report and its attached press release is specifically stated as not being 'filed' for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This means it does not carry the same legal liabilities as information that is formally filed.

What does 'furnished as Exhibit 99.1' mean for investors?

It means that the actual content of the press release containing the Q3 FY14 financial results is attached to this 8-K filing as a separate document, labeled as Exhibit 99.1. Investors need to access this exhibit to get the financial details.
