EXHIBIT 23.1 |
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Plan Administrator of the
Savings Plus Plan,
Lam Research 401(k)
We have audited the financial statements of the Savings Plus Plan, Lam Research 401(k) (the Plan)
as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and for the year ended December 31, 2005, as listed in the
accompanying table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We
were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plans internal control over financial reporting. Our
audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Plans management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and
the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2005, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule, as listed in the accompanying table of contents, is
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedule
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

SAVINGS PLUS PLAN,
LAM RESEARCH 401(k)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
NOTE 1 THE PLAN AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General The following description of the Savings Plus Plan, Lam Research 401(k) (the Plan)
provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more
complete description of the Plans provisions.
The Plan is a defined contribution plan that was established in 1985 by Lam Research Corporation
(the Company) to provide benefits to eligible employees, as defined in the Plan document. The Plan
is currently designed to be qualified under the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code, as amended, and the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended (ERISA).
Administration - The Company and the Plan Committee (the Committee) manage the operation and
administration of the Plan. A third-party administrator processes and maintains the records of
participant data. During 2005 and 2004, American Stock Transfer and Trust Company (AST) acted as
the trustee and custodian. Substantially all expenses incurred for administering the Plan are paid
by the Plan, unless paid by the Company.
Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and changes therein, and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basis of accounting - The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual method of
accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
Investments - Investments of the Plan are held by AST and are invested based solely upon
instructions received from participants.
The Plans investments are valued at fair value as of the last day of the Plan year, as measured by
quoted market prices. Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
Cash and cash equivalents All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of
three months or less (generally money market funds) are considered to be cash equivalents. These
investments are usually held for a short period of time, pending long-term investment.
4
Income taxes - The Plan has been amended since receiving its favorable determination letter dated
January 21, 2004. The Plan is operated in accordance with, and is intended to qualify under, the
applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and related state statutes, and the trust,
which forms a part of the Plan, is intended to be exempt from federal income and state franchise
taxes.
Reconciliation of financial statements to Form 5500 - The differences between the information
reported in the financial statements and the information reported in the Form 5500 arise primarily
from the reporting of benefits payable in the Form 5500 of approximately $11,000 and $54,000 at
December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Risks and uncertainties - The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of
investment securities offered by the Plan. In addition, Company common stock is included as an
investment under the Plan. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest
rate, market fluctuations and credit risks. Due to the risk associated with certain investment
securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in market values, interest rates or
other factors in the near term would materially affect participants account balances and the
amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits.
NOTE 2 RELATED PARTY AND PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS
Participants may elect to invest a portion of their accounts in the common stock of the Company.

NOTE 3 PARTICIPATION AND BENEFITS
Participant contributions During 2005 and 2004, participants could elect to contribute from 2% to
20% of their Eligible Compensation, as defined by the Plan, per payroll period not to exceed the
amount allowable under current income tax regulations. Participants who elect to contribute a
portion of their eligible compensation to the Plan agree to accept an equivalent reduction in
taxable compensation. Contributions withheld are invested in accordance with the participants
direction.
Participants are also allowed to make rollover contributions of amounts received from other
tax-qualified employer-sponsored retirement plans. Such contributions are
deposited in the appropriate investment funds in accordance with the participants direction and
the Plans provisions.
5
Employer contributions The Company may make matching contributions as defined in the Plan and as
approved by the Board of Directors. In 2005, the Company matched 50% of each eligible participants
salary deferral contribution (excluding catch-up contributions) up to a maximum of the first 6% of
the participants eligible compensation on a per payroll period basis. The Plan also allows for a
discretionary profit sharing contribution. No discretionary contribution was made for the year
ended December 31, 2005.
Vesting - Participants are immediately vested in their entire account, including employer matching
and discretionary profit sharing contributions (if any).
Participant accounts Each participants account is credited with the participants contribution,
Plan earnings or losses in funds selected by the participant, and an allocation of the Companys
contribution, if any. Allocation of the Companys contribution is based on participant
contributions and / or compensation, as defined in the Plan.
Payment of benefits Upon termination, each participant (or beneficiary) may elect to leave his or
her account balance in the Plan until age 70 ½
or receive his or her total benefits
in a lump sum amount equal to the value of the participants account, in installments over a period
of years, or over a term certain under a non-transferable annuity contract. The Plan requires lump
sum distribution of participant account balances that do not exceed $1,000.
Loans to participants The Plan allows participants to borrow not less than $1,000 and up to the
lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their account balance. The loans are secured by the participants
balance reduced by certain balances of outstanding or defaulted loans. Such loans bear interest at
the available market financing rates and must be repaid to the Plan within a five-year period,
unless the loan is used for the purchase of a principal residence in which case the maximum
repayment period is 15 years. The specific terms and conditions of such loans are established by
the Committee. Outstanding loans at December 31, 2005 carry interest rates ranging from 5.0% to
10.5%.
