Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

​

Cash, Cash Equivalents, Short-term Investments, and Long-term Investments

​

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Cash equivalents consist primarily of money market funds, U.S. government and agency securities and deposit accounts. Cash equivalents are carried on the balance sheet at fair market value. Short-term investments are highly liquid investments, primarily consisting of U.S. government and agency securities, with original maturities of greater than 90 days but less than one year from date of purchase. Long-term investments consist of U.S. government and agency securities with original maturities greater than one year from the date of purchase. Beginning as of March 31, 2025, both our short-term and long-term investments are classified as available-for-sale as a result of the below noted sale of securities. In prior periods, our short-term investments were classified as held-to-maturity. We classify our long-term investments as non-current based on the security’s contractual maturity. We evaluate if any declines in fair value below amortized cost are caused by expected credit losses, as well as our ability and intent to hold the investment until a forecasted recovery occurs. Any unrealized gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. Income related to these securities is recorded in interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2025, the amortized cost and fair value of the available-for-sale short-term investments was $376.3 million and $376.2 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, the amortized cost and fair value of the long-term investments was $31.0 million and $31.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, we had no allowances for credit loss on our investments.

​

In February 2025, we sold securities classified as held-to-maturity with a total net carrying value of $199.5 million. The majority of the proceeds were reinvested back into short-term investments during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Due to this sale, the remaining held-to-maturity securities were reclassified as available-for-sale, resulting in a remeasurement increase in short-term investments for balance sheet presentation purposes with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive loss of $81.0 thousand as of March 31, 2025.

Note 3. Stock-Based Compensation

​

We maintain the Axcelis Technologies, Inc. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2012 Equity Plan”), which became effective on May 2, 2012, and permits the issuance of options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance awards to selected employees, directors, and consultants of the Company.

​

The 2012 Equity Plan is more fully described in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements in our 2024 Form 10-K.

​

We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $5.4 million and $5.5 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $10.3 million and $10.2 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These amounts include compensation expense related to RSUs and stock issued to participants under the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2020 ESPP”).

​

In the three-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we issued 0.1 million and 0.2 million shares of common stock, respectively, upon vesting of RSUs granted under the 2012 Equity Plan and purchases under the 2020 ESPP. In both the three-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we received proceeds of $1.2 million in connection with purchases under the 2020 ESPP.

​

In each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we issued 0.2 million shares of common stock, upon vesting of RSUs granted under the 2012 Equity Plan and purchases under the 2020 ESPP. In both the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we received proceeds of $1.2 million in connection with purchases under the 2020 ESPP.

​

Note 4. Leases

​

We have operating leases for manufacturing, office space, warehouse space, computer and office equipment and vehicles used in our business operations. We have a finance lease in relation to the 2015 sale-leaseback of our corporate headquarters in Beverly, Massachusetts. We review all agreements to determine if the agreement contains a lease component. An agreement contains a lease component if it provides for the use of a specific physical space or a specific physical item.

​

We recognize operating lease obligations under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases (“Topic 842”). The guidance in Topic 842 requires recognition of lease assets and related liabilities on a discounted basis using the explicit or implicit discount rate stated within the agreement. We recognize a corresponding right-of-use asset, which is initially determined based upon the net present value of the associated liability and is adjusted for deferred costs and possible impairment, if any. For those lease agreements that do not indicate the applicable discount rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate. We have made the following policy elections: (i) operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets; (ii) we recognize lease expense for operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term; and (iii) we account for lease components and non-lease components that are fixed payments as one component. Some of our operating leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the respective lease term by one to three years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. For lease extensions that are reasonably certain to occur, we have included the renewal periods in our calculation of the net present value of the lease obligation and related right-of-use asset. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. The depreciable life of certain assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The amounts of operating and finance lease right-of-use assets and related lease obligations recorded within our consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

Note 5. Revenue

​

To reflect the organization of our business operations, we divide revenue into two categories: revenue from sales of new systems and revenue arising from the sale of used systems, parts, and labor to customers who own systems, which we refer to as “Aftermarket.”

​

Revenue by categories used by management are as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Three months ended | ​ | Six months ended
​ | ​ | June 30, | ​ | June 30,

​

Our system sales revenue transactions give rise to contract liabilities (in the case of pre-payments and the fair value of goods and services to be delivered after the system delivery, such as installation and certain warranty obligations).

​

Contract liabilities are as follows:

​

​ | ​ | (in thousands)
Contract liabilities | ​ | $ | 129,742 | ​ | $ | 138,174
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

Contract liabilities are reflected as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets and include payments received in advance of system sales as well as deferral of revenue from systems sales for installation and other future performance obligations. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue upon the fulfillment of performance obligations.

​

* Adjustment to contracts with customers are assessed to determine if amounts paid by customers represent deferred revenue or liabilities payable to customers and will reclassify such amounts pursuant to our revenue recognition policy and ASC 606.

​

The majority of our system transactions have either (1) payment terms of 90% due upon shipment of the system and 10% due upon acceptance or (2) a pre-shipment deposit ranging from 20% to 60%, with the remainder due upon shipment, less 10% due at acceptance. Aftermarket transaction payment terms typically provide that payment is due either within 30 or 60 days after the service is provided or parts delivered.

​

Note 6. Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses

​

All trade receivables are reported on the consolidated balance sheets at their amortized cost adjusted for any write-offs and net of allowances for credit losses.

​

We maintain an allowance for credit losses, which represents an estimate of expected losses over the remaining contractual life of our receivables, considering current market conditions and estimates for supportable forecasts when appropriate. The estimate is a result of our ongoing assessments and evaluations of collectability, historical loss experience, and future expectations in estimating credit losses in our receivable portfolio. We use historical loss experience rates and apply them to a related aging analysis while also considering customer and/or economic risk where appropriate.

13

Table of Contents

Determination of the proper amount of allowances requires management to exercise judgment about the timing, frequency and severity of credit losses that could materially affect the provision for credit losses and, as a result, net earnings. The allowance takes into consideration numerous quantitative and qualitative factors that include receivable type, historical loss experience, loss migration, delinquency trends, collection experience, current economic conditions, trade restrictions, estimates for supportable forecasts, when appropriate, and credit risk characteristics.

​

We evaluate the credit risk of the customer when extending credit based on a combination of financial and qualitative factors that may affect our customers’ ability to pay. These factors may include the customer’s financial condition, past payment experience, and credit bureau report, as well as the value of the underlying collateral.

​

Management performs detailed reviews of our receivables on a quarterly basis to assess the adequacy of the allowances and to determine if any impairment has occurred. Amounts determined to be uncollectable are charged directly against the allowances, while amounts recovered on previously written-off accounts increase the allowances. Changes to the allowances for credit losses are maintained through adjustments to the provision for credit losses, which are charged to current period earnings. We did not have any allowance or incur any credit losses or recoveries for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2025. We did not have any allowance or incur any credit losses or recoveries for the three month period ended June 30, 2024. We recorded $0.5 million of recovery of bad debt expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2024. As of both June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, we had no provision for credit losses.

​

​

Note 7. Computation of Net Earnings per Share

​

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding (the denominator) for the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased by the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive shares of common stock issuable on vesting of RSUs had been issued, calculated using the treasury stock method.

​

The components of net earnings per share are as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Three months ended | ​ | Six months ended | ​
​ | ​ | June 30, | ​ | June 30, | ​

Diluted | ​ | $ | 0.98 | ​ | $ | 1.55 | ​ | $ | 1.87 | ​ | $ | 3.12 | ​

​

​

Diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding does not include 509,998 and 22,983 common equivalent shares issuable with respect to outstanding equity awards for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, or 411,238 and 20,639 common equivalent shares issuable with respect to outstanding equity awards for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

​

When recorded, inventory reserves reduce the carrying value of inventories to their net realizable value. We establish inventory reserves when conditions exist that indicate inventory may be in excess of anticipated demand or is obsolete based upon assumptions about future demand for our products or market conditions. We regularly evaluate the ability to realize the value of inventories based on a combination of factors including the following: forecasted sales or usage, estimated product end of life dates, estimated current and future market value and new product introductions. Purchasing and usage alternatives are also explored to mitigate inventory exposure.

​

Note 11. Product Warranty

​

We generally offer a one-year warranty for all of our systems, the terms and conditions of which vary depending upon the product sold. For all systems sold, we accrue a liability for the estimated cost of standard warranty at the time of system shipment and, if applicable, defer the portion of systems revenue attributable to non-standard warranty. Costs for

non-standard warranty are expensed as incurred. Factors that affect our warranty liability include the number of installed units, historical and anticipated product failure rates, material usage and service labor costs. We periodically assess the adequacy of our recorded liability and adjust the amount as necessary.

Note 12. Fair Value Measurements

​

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

​

(a) Fair Value Hierarchy

​

The accounting guidance for fair value measurement requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

​

Level 1 - applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

​

Level 2 - applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

​

Level 3 - applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

​

(b) Fair Value Measurements

​

Our money market funds and short-term investments with initial maturities of three months or less are included in cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets. Other investments that have a maturity of greater than three months but less than one year are included within short-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets. Investments that have a maturity of greater than one year are included within long-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets.

​

(c) Other Financial Instruments

​

The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, forward currency exchange contracts and other current assets and non-current assets, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

​

(d) Forward Currency Exchange Contracts

​

We enter into forward currency exchange contracts to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on our earnings and cash flows. These contracts have month-to-month settlement dates. Any gains or losses on these contracts are reported within Other, net in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Any open contracts at period end that have settlement dates within one month after the reported period end are marked-to-market and the valuation adjustments related to these open contracts are recorded in the current asset or current liability account. Any unrealized gain or loss on the open contracts is recognized and recorded within Other, net in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. These contracts are measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as forward currency exchange rates and our counterparties’ credit risks. Based on these inputs, the derivative instruments are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. At June 30, 2025, the recognized unrealized loss on these forward exchange contracts was approximately $0.5 million. Based

17

Table of Contents

on our continued ability to trade and enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments to be active. We evaluated the credit risk associated with the counterparties to these derivative instruments and determined that as of June 30, 2025, such credit risks have not had an adverse impact on the fair value of these instruments.

​

Note 13. Financing Arrangements

​

On January 30, 2015, we sold our corporate headquarters facility in Beverly, Massachusetts for $48.9 million. As part of the sale, we also entered into a 22-year lease agreement of our headquarters facility. This sale-leaseback is accounted for as a finance lease under generally accepted accounting principles and, as such, we have recorded a finance lease obligation of $43.0 million as of June 30, 2025. The associated lease payments include both an interest component and payment of principal, with the remaining liability being extinguished at the end of the original lease term. As of June 30, 2025, we had a security deposit of $5.9 million related to this lease in the form of a cash collateralized letter of credit, which is classified as long-term restricted cash on our balance sheet at June 30, 2025.

​

Note 14. Income Taxes

​

Income tax expense was $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The $2.8 million decrease was primarily due to the decrease in pre-tax book income and an increased Foreign Derived Intangible Income deduction. The effective tax rate (“ETR”) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was less than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily attributable to Foreign Derived Intangible Income deduction and Federal research and development tax credits. The reported ETR for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 10.3% compared to 11.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

​

On July 4, 2025, U.S tax legislation known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law. The OBBBA makes permanent many of the tax provisions enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that were originally set to expire at the end of 2025. In addition, the OBBBA makes changes to certain U.S. corporate tax provisions, many of which are not in effect until 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new legislation.

​

Note 15. Concentration of Risk

​

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, no individual customer accounted for greater than ten percent of total revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, one customer accounted for 11.5% of total revenue.

​

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, two customers accounted for 11.6% and 11.2% of total revenue, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, no individual customer accounted for greater than ten percent of total revenue.

​

At June 30, 2025, no individual customer accounted for greater than ten precent of accounts receivable. At December 31, 2024, one customer accounted for 10.0% of accounts receivable.

​

Note 16. Share Repurchase

​

In March 2025, our Board of Directors approved an additional funding of $100 million for our stock repurchase program. This approval brings the current outstanding repurchase authorization to $215 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 1.1 million shares of common stock at an average cost of $57.20 per share. The timing and actual number of any additional shares to be repurchased under this program will depend on various factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities and other market conditions.

​

Repurchased shares are accounted for when the transaction is settled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares. Accordingly, on our balance sheet, the repurchase price is deducted from common stock par value and from additional paid-in capital for the excess over par value. If additional paid-in capital has been exhausted, the excess over par value is deducted from retained earnings. Direct costs incurred to acquire the shares are included in the total cost of the shares.

Note 17. Contingencies

​

(a) Litigation

​

We are from time to time a party to litigation that arises in the normal course of our business operations. We are not presently a party to any litigation that we believe might have a material adverse effect on our business operations.

​

(b) Indemnifications

​

Our system sales agreements typically include provisions under which we agree to take certain actions, provide certain remedies and defend our customers against third-party claims of intellectual property infringement under specified conditions and indemnify customers against any damage and costs awarded in connection with such claims. We have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications and have not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

​

Note 18. Business Segment

​

The Company operates as one operating segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our chief executive officer, who assesses financial performance for the Company and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated net income. Segment asset information is provided to the CODM but it is not used to allocate resources.

Note 19. Recent Accounting Guidance

​

In December 2023 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 addresses investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. Early adoption is permitted. A public entity should apply ASU 2023-09 prospectively to all annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on our future consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

​

Certain statements within "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Words such as may, will, should, would, anticipates, expects, intends, plans, believes, seeks, estimates and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations and entail various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, among other things, those set forth under "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below and under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A to our 2024 Form 10-K, which discussion is incorporated herein by reference. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management's analysis only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.

​

Overview

​

We are primarily a producer of ion implantation equipment used in the fabrication of semiconductor chips in the United States, Europe, and Asia. In addition, we provide extensive worldwide aftermarket service and support, including spare parts, equipment upgrades and maintenance services to the semiconductor industry. Our product development and manufacturing activities currently occur primarily in the United States and South Korea. Our equipment and service products are highly technical and are sold through a direct sales force in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Consolidation and partnering within the semiconductor manufacturing industry has resulted in a small number of customers representing a substantial portion of our business. Our ten largest customers accounted for 55.5% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

​

Sales of our systems in the first six months of 2025 were down compared to the same period in the prior year, as customers have moderated the pace of investments into mature process node technologies. The overall mature process segment represented 92% of our shipped systems revenue, with 8% of shipments to dynamic random-access memory (“DRAM”) applications. Of the mature process segment, power device shipments comprised 47% of total systems revenue with the general mature segment representing 45%, which includes image sensor applications starting with first quarter 2025 results.

​

For the six months ending June 30, 2025, the geopolitical environment surrounding trade and tariffs did not have a meaningful impact on our financial results. It is difficult to predict the exact timing and magnitude of the tariffs, the duration for which the tariffs will be in place, and the impact the tariffs will have on our customers and suppliers. We continue to develop plans to reduce the potential impact of these tariffs by leveraging our global supply chain and manufacturing footprint.

​

Critical Accounting Estimates

​

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations included herein and in our 2024 Form 10-K are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Management’s estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

​

Management has not identified any need to make any material change in, and has not changed, any of our critical accounting estimates and judgments as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our 2024 Form 10-K.

month period ended June 30, 2025, in comparison to the same period in 2024, was primarily driven by a decrease in system sales.

​

Deferred revenue includes payments received in advance of system sales as well as deferral of revenue from systems sales for installation and other future performance obligations. The total amount of deferred revenue at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $129.7 million and $138.2 million, respectively.

​

Services

​

Services revenue, which includes the labor component of maintenance and service contracts and fees for service hours provided by on-site service personnel, was $11.1 million, or 5.7% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, relatively flat compared with $11.1 million, or 4.3% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Although services revenue typically increases with the expansion of the installed base of systems, it can fluctuate from period to period based on capacity utilization at customers’ manufacturing facilities, which affects the need for equipment service.

Revenue Categories used by Management

​

In addition to the line item revenue categories discussed above, management also regularly disaggregates revenue in the following categories, which it finds relevant and useful:

​

| ● | Systems and Aftermarket revenues, in which “Aftermarket” is:

| A. | The portion of Product revenue relating to spare parts, product upgrades and used equipment, combined with

| B. | Services revenue, which is the labor component of Aftermarket revenues;

​

(Aftermarket purchases reflect current fab utilization as opposed to Systems purchases which reflect capital investment decisions by our customers, which have differing economic drivers);

​

| ● | Revenue by geographic regions, since economic factors impacting customer purchasing decisions may vary by geographic region; and ​

| ● | Revenue by our customer market segments, since they can be subject to different economic drivers at different periods of time, impacting a customer’s likelihood of purchasing capital equipment during any particular period. Currently, management references three customer market segments: memory, mature process technology and advanced logic.

​

Our operating expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, including wages, commissions, incentive-based compensation, stock-based compensation and related benefits and taxes; project material costs related to the design and development of new products and enhancement of existing products; and professional fees, travel and depreciation expenses.

​

Personnel costs are our largest expense, representing $35.9 million, or 61.5%, of our total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $35.3 million, or 59.2%, of our total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

​

Income tax expense was $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The $2.8 million decrease was primarily due to the decrease in pre-tax book income and an increased Foreign Derived Intangible Income deduction. The ETR for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was less than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily attributable to Foreign Derived Intangible Income deduction and Federal research and development tax credits. The reported ETR for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 10.3% compared to 11.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

​

On July 4, 2025, U.S tax legislation known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law. The OBBBA makes permanent many of the tax provisions enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that were originally set to expire at the end of 2025. In addition, the OBBBA makes changes to certain U.S. corporate tax provisions, many of which are not effective until 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new legislation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

​

At June 30, 2025, we had $173.6 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $376.2 million in short-term investments and $31.1 million in long-term investments, in addition to $7.6 million in restricted cash. Management believes that maintaining a strong cash balance is necessary to fund a continuing ramp in our business which can require significant cash investment to meet sudden demand. Additionally, we are using cash to repurchase shares as part of our stock repurchase program and are considering both organic and inorganic opportunities to drive future growth, for which cash resources will be necessary.

​

Our liquidity is affected by many factors. Some of these relate specifically to the operations of our business, for example, the rate of sales of our products, and others relate to the uncertainties of global economic conditions, including tariff programs implemented in countries in which we operate as well as the availability of credit and the condition of the overall semiconductor equipment industry. Our industry requires ongoing investments in operations and research and development that are not easily adjusted to reflect changes in revenue. As a result, profitability and cash flows can fluctuate more widely than revenue. Stock repurchases, as discussed below, also reduce our cash balances.

​

During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated $79.5 million and $82.3 million, respectively, of cash related to operating activities.

​

Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 resulted in cash generated of $35.9 million, $6.9 million of which was used for capital expenditures and $345.2 million of which was used to purchase short-term and long-term investments, offset by $388.0 million related to maturities and sales of short-term investments. Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 resulted in cash outflows of $61.3 million, $3.6 million of which was used for capital expenditures and $249.0 million of which was used to purchase short-term investments, offset by $191.3 million related to maturities of short-term investments.

​

Financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 resulted in a cash usage of $67.1 million. During the first six months of 2025, (i) $63.5 million in cash was used to repurchase our common stock, (ii) $4.2 million was used for payments to government tax authorities for income tax withholding on employee compensation arising from the vesting of RSUs, where units are withheld by us to cover taxes, and (iii) $0.7 million was used to reduce the liability under the finance lease of our corporate headquarters. These amounts were partially offset by $1.2 million of proceeds related to the purchase of shares under our 2020 ESPP during the first six months of 2025. In comparison, financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 resulted in cash usage of $40.7 million, of which (i) $30.0 million related to the repurchase of our common stock (ii) $11.2 million related to payments made to government tax authorities for income tax withholding on employee compensation arising from the vesting of RSUs, and (iii) $0.7 million relating to the reduction of our finance

lease liability. These amounts were partially offset by $1.2 million of proceeds related to the purchase of shares under our 2020 ESPP during the first six months of 2024.

​

As of June 30, 2025, we had a security deposit of $5.9 million related to the lease of our corporate headquarters in the form of a cash collateralized letter of credit, which is classified as long-term restricted cash on our balance sheet.
