December 30, 2023 and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. You should carefully consider the numerous risks and uncertainties described under these sections.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us” and “FormFactor” refer to FormFactor, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Overview
FormFactor, Inc., headquartered in Livermore, California, is a leading provider of essential test and measurement technologies along the full semiconductor product lifecycle — from characterization, modeling, reliability, and design de-bug, to qualification and production test. We provide a broad range of high-performance probe cards, analytical probes, probe stations, thermal systems, and cryogenic systems to both semiconductor companies and scientific institutions. Our products provide electrical information from a variety of semiconductor and electro-optical devices and integrated circuits from early research, through development, to high-volume production. Customers use our products and services to accelerate profitability by optimizing device performance and advancing yield knowledge.
We operate in two reportable segments consisting of the Probe Cards segment and the Systems segment. Sales of our probe cards and analytical probes are included in the Probe Cards segment, while sales of our probe stations, thermal systems and cryogenic systems are included in the Systems segment.
We generated net income of $21.8 million in the first three months of fiscal 2024 as compared to $1.3 million in the first three months of fiscal 2023. On February 26, 2024, we completed the sale of our China operations and established an exclusive distribution and partnership agreement to continue sales and support of our products in the region (the “China Transaction”). As a result of the China Transaction, we received estimated net consideration of $21.1 million and the China Transaction resulted in an estimated gain of $20.0 million, subject to customary adjustments for changes in net working capital and similar items.
The increase in net income in the first three months of fiscal 2024 compared to the first three months of fiscal 2023 was primarily due to the $20.0 million estimated gain recognized from the China Transaction. Apart from this gain, the semiconductor industry weakness that began in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 continued into fiscal 2024, impacting most markets within our Probe Cards segment. Furthermore, due to the sale of our FRT Metrology business in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, our Systems segment revenues were impacted due to the decreased metrology system sales.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies , to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K describe the significant accounting estimates and significant accounting policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. During the three months ended March 30, 2024, there were no significant changes in our significant accounting policies or estimates from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2023.

(1) During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, we completed the sale of our FRT Metrology business. As a result, metrology systems revenue will not recur in future periods. We generated no metrology systems revenue during the three months ended March 30, 2024, compared to $4.1 million during the three months ended April 1, 2023.
Foundry & Logic — The decrease in Foundry & Logic product revenue for the three months ended March 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, was driven by continued weakness in demand in the semiconductor industry,
22
especially in the personal computer and mobile sectors, that has resulted in decreased unit sales across the majority of our major customers.
DRAM — The increase in DRAM product revenue for the three months ended March 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, was driven by increased demand for high bandwidth memory (“HBM”) chips utilized in generative artificial intelligence applications.
Flash — The decrease in Flash product revenue for the three months ended March 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, was driven by lower customer production activity and demand for our products.
Systems — The decrease in Systems market revenue for the three months ended March 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, was driven primarily by the absence of sales of our metrology systems from our FRT Metrology business, which was sold in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, and decreased sales of cryogenic systems. The decrease in Systems revenue from sources not associated with metrology systems was $4.0 million, or 11.0%, for the three months ended March 30, 2024, driven primarily by timing of demand for our cryogenic systems.
Revenues by Geographic Region

South Korea $ 50,717 30.1 % $ 20,775 12.4 %
United States 45,766 27.1 37,731 22.5

Malaysia 1,863 1.1 11,270 6.7
Rest of the world 2,740 1.6 4,501 2.7
Total revenues $ 168,725 100.0 % $ 167,448 100.0 %
Geographic revenue information is based on the location to which we ship the product. For example, if a certain South Korean customer purchases through its U.S. subsidiary and requests the products to be shipped to an address in South Korea, this sale will be reflected in the revenue for South Korea rather than the U.S.
Changes in revenue by geographic region for the three months ended March 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, were primarily attributable to changes in customer demand, shifts in customer regional manufacturing strategies, particularly with our large multinational customers, and product sales mix. Specifically, the changes in revenue by geographic region was attributable to the following:
• The increase in revenue for South Korea was driven principally by increased demand for our DRAM products, including HBM.
• The decrease in revenues for Taiwan was driven principally by decreased demand for our Foundry & Logic products.
• The increase in revenues for the United States, and decreases in revenues for China and Malaysia, were driven principally by a single large U.S.-based company with operations in these regions that shifted shipments from these regions to the United States. We expect the trade restrictions to continue to drive multinational customers to concentrate operations in regions other than China, impacting our geographical mix.
• The decrease in revenues for China was also impacted by lowered demand from a large Chinese DRAM integrated device manufacturer and the impact of expanded export license requirements imposed by the U.S. government beginning the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 for exporting advanced U.S. semiconductor technology to China.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Margins
Cost of revenues consists primarily of manufacturing materials, compensation and benefits, shipping and handling costs, manufacturing-related overhead (including equipment costs, related occupancy, and computer services), warranty costs, inventory adjustments (including write-downs for inventory obsolescence), and amortization of certain intangible assets. Our manufacturing operations rely on a limited number of suppliers to provide key components and materials for our products,
23
some of which are a sole source. We order materials and supplies based on backlog and forecasted customer orders. Tooling and setup costs related to changing manufacturing lots at our suppliers are also included in the cost of revenues. We expense all warranty costs, inventory provisions and amortization of certain intangible assets as cost of revenues.
Our gross profit and gross margin were as follows (dollars in thousands):

2023 $ Change % Change
Gross profit $ 62,738 $ 61,078 $ 1,660 2.7 %

Gross profit $ 50,791 $ 14,506 $ (2,559) $ 62,738 $ 43,623 $ 20,746 $ (3,291) $ 61,078
Gross margin 37.2 % 45.3 % 37.2 % 34.3 % 51.7 % 36.5 %
Probe Cards — For the three months ended March 30, 2024, gross profit and gross margins increased compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, primarily due to greater revenues and a more favorable absorption of costs on higher production volumes, as well as lower inventory excess and obsolescence reserves. This was partially offset by an unfavorable product mix resulting from a higher concentration of sales of lower-margin DRAM products, up from 15.6% of Probe Card sales to 33.6% of Probe Card sales, and a lower concentration of Foundry & Logic sales, down from 79.8% of Probe Card sales to 63.5% of Probe Card sales, and higher warranty costs.
Systems — For the three months ended March 30, 2024, gross profit and gross margins decreased compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, primarily as a result of a less favorable product mix.
Corporate and Other — Corporate and Other includes unallocated expenses relating to stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, inventory and fixed asset fair value adjustments due to acquisitions, and restructuring charges, net, which are not used in evaluating the results of, or in allocating resources to, our reportable segments. For the three months ended March 30, 2024, Corporate and Other gross profit increased compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, primarily from the absence of amortization expense associated with our FRT Metrology business, which was sold during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Overall — Gross profit and gross margins fluctuate with revenue levels, product mix, selling prices, factory loading, and material costs. For the three months ended March 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended April 1, 2023, gross profit and gross margins have increased primarily as a result of more favorable absorption of costs and lower inventory excess and obsolescence reserves, partially offset by an unfavorable product mix, as described above.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased in the three months ended March 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The drivers of the increase for the three month period were increased transaction expenses related to the sale of our FRT Metrology business in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and the China Transaction in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, increased stock-based compensation expense from an increase in weighted average fair value of awards outstanding, and increased recruiting costs, partially offset by lower amortization expense from significant intangible assets becoming fully amortized and lower restructuring charges.

Gain on sale of business
Gain on sale of business represents the gain recognized from the China Transaction of $20.0 million and an adjustment to the gain recognized from the sale of our FRT Metrology business of $0.3 million. See Note 4, Divestitures , for additional information.
Interest Income (Expense), Net
Interest income is earned on our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities. The increase in interest income for the three months ended March 30, 2024 compared with the corresponding period of the prior year, was attributable to an increase in weighted average yields due to the higher interest rate environment and on higher invested balances.
Interest expense primarily includes interest on our term loan, interest rate swap derivative contracts, and term loan issuance costs amortization charges. The interest expense for the three months ended March 30, 2024 decreased compared to the corresponding period of the prior year due to lower outstanding debt.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net, primarily includes the effects of foreign currency and various other gains and losses. We partially mitigate our risks from currency movements by hedging certain balance sheet exposures, which minimizes the impacts during periods of foreign exchange volatility.
Provision for Income Taxes

2024 April 1,
2023
(In thousands, except percentages)
Provision for income taxes $ 3,198 $ 48
Effective tax rate 12.8 % 3.5 %
Provision for income taxes reflects the tax provision on our operations in foreign and U.S. jurisdictions, offset by tax benefits from tax credits and the foreign-derived intangible income deduction. Our effective tax rate may vary from period to period based on changes in estimated taxable income or loss by jurisdiction, changes to the valuation allowance, changes to U.S. federal, state or foreign tax laws, changes in stock-based compensation expense/benefit, future expansion into areas with varying country, state, and local income tax rates, and deductibility of certain costs and expenses by jurisdiction. The increase in our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year was primarily driven by higher taxable income with consistent rate impacting items.
The Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors and Science Act of 2022 (“CHIPS Act”) was signed into law on August 9, 2022. The CHIPS Act provides for various incentives and tax credits, among other items, including the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit (“AMIC”), which equals 25% of qualified investments in an advanced manufacturing facility that is placed in service after December 31, 2022. At least a portion of our future capital expenditures and research and development costs will qualify for this credit, which benefits us by allowing us to net the credit received against our costs. The AMIC credit is accounted for outside of ASC 740 as a reduction to the depreciable basis of the assets used in operations and will not have an impact on our effective tax rate.
Beginning in 2022, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminated the existing option to deduct research and development expenditures and requires taxpayers to amortize such expenditures attributable to domestic and foreign research over five and fifteen years, respectively, pursuant to IRC Section 174. While the capitalization requirement has a negative impact on our cash flows, there are offsetting benefits from the enactment of this provision that we have included in our estimated annual effective tax rate. While it is possible that Congress may defer, modify, or repeal this provision, potentially with retroactive effect, we have no assurance that this provision will be deferred, modified, or repealed. Changes in our tax provisions or an increase in our tax liabilities, whether due to changes in applicable laws and regulations, the interpretation or application thereof, or a final
26
determination of tax audits or litigation or agreements, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources
Our working capital increased to $457.9 million at March 30, 2024, compared to $442.7 million at December 30, 2023.
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of deposits held at banks and money market funds. Marketable securities primarily consist of corporate bonds, U.S. treasuries, commercial paper, and U.S. agency securities. We typically invest in highly rated securities with low probabilities of default. Our investment policy requires investments to be rated single A or better, and limits the types of acceptable investments, issuer concentration and duration of the investment.
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled approximately $349.2 million at March 30, 2024, compared to $328.3 million at December 30, 2023. Based on our historical results of operations, we expect that our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on hand, and the cash we expect to generate from operations, will be sufficient to fund our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements primarily arising from: research and development, capital expenditures, working capital, outstanding commitments, and other liquidity requirements associated with existing operations. However, we cannot be certain that our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on hand, and cash generated from operations, will be available in the future to fund all of our capital and operating requirements. In addition, any future strategic investments and significant acquisitions may require additional cash and capital resources. To the extent necessary, we may consider entering into short and long-term debt obligations, raising cash through a stock issuance, or obtaining new financing facilities, which may not be available on terms favorable to us. If we are unable to obtain sufficient cash or capital to meet our needs on a timely basis and on favorable terms, our business and operations could be materially and adversely affected.
If we are unsuccessful in maintaining or growing our revenues, maintaining or reducing our cost structure, or increasing our available cash through debt or equity financings, our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities may decline.
We utilize a variety of tax planning and financing strategies to manage our worldwide cash and deploy funds to locations where needed. As part of these strategies, we indefinitely reinvest a portion of our foreign earnings. Should we require additional capital in the United States, we may elect to repatriate indefinitely-reinvested foreign funds or raise capital in the United States.
Cash Flows
The following table sets forth our net cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:
Three Months Ended

(In thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 33,012 $ 12,309
Net cash used in investing activities $ (3,820) $ (13,539)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities $ (14,492) $ 4,378
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities consists of net income for the period adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in certain operating assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 30, 2024 was attributable to net income of $21.8 million, an increase in net working capital of $9.8 million, and net non-cash income of $1.4 million. The cash generated from net working capital is related to decreased accounts receivable, net of $6.5 million and increased accounts payable and deferred revenue of $4.9 million and $4.5 million, respectively, partially offset by increased inventories of $4.9 million. The non-cash income consisted of the $20.3 million gain on sale of business, offset by depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and the provision for excess and obsolete inventories.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 30, 2024 primarily related to $13.4 million in property, plant and equipment purchases and $11.7 million in net purchases of marketable securities, offset by $21.3 million cash provided by the sale of businesses.
Financing Activities
27
Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 30, 2024 primarily related to $17.3 million used to purchase common stock under our stock repurchase program, $1.8 million used to pay tax withholdings for net share settlements of employee stock awards, partially offset by $4.9 million received from issuances of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan.
Debt
On June 22, 2020, we entered into an $18.0 million 15-year credit facility loan agreement (the “Building Term Loan”). The proceeds of the Building Term Loan were used to purchase a building adjacent to our leased facilities in Livermore, California. On May 19, 2023, we amended the Building Term Loan, replacing the benchmark reference rate London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR“) with the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), with no change to the amount or timing of contractual cash flows.
The Building Term Loan bears interest at a rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate, plus 1.86% per annum. Interest payments are payable in monthly installments over a fifteen-year period. The interest rate at March 30, 2024, before consideration of the interest rate swap discussed in the next paragraph, was 7.19%. As of March 30, 2024, the balance outstanding pursuant to the Building Term Loan was $14.2 million.
On March 17, 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge the interest payment on the Building Term Loan for the notional amount of $18.0 million, and an amortization period that matches the debt. As future levels of LIBOR over the life of the loan are uncertain, we entered into this interest-rate swap agreement to hedge the exposure in interest rate risks associated with movement in LIBOR rates. This agreement was amended on May 19, 2023 to replace the benchmark reference rate LIBOR with SOFR to match the Building Term Loan agreement (as amended). After the amendment, the interest rate swap continues to convert our floating-rate interest into a fixed-rate at 2.75%. As of March 30, 2024, the notional amount of the loan that is subject to this interest rate swap is $14.2 million.
Stock Repurchase Programs
On May 20, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a two-year program to repurchase up to $75.0 million of outstanding common stock to offset potential dilution from issuance of common stock under our stock-based compensation programs. During fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023, we repurchased and retired 1,700,893 shares of common stock for $56.4 million and 504,352 shares of common stock for $18.6 million, respectively, utilizing the remaining shares available for repurchase under the program.
On October 30, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized an additional two-year program to repurchase up to $75.0 million of outstanding common stock, also with the primary purpose of offsetting potential dilution from issuance of common stock under our stock-based compensation programs. This share repurchase program will expire on October 30, 2025. During fiscal 2023, we repurchased and retired 32,020 shares of common stock for $1.2 million. During the three months ended March 30, 2024, we repurchased and retired 411,756 shares of common stock for $17.4 million, and as of March 30, 2024, $56.4 million remained available for future repurchases.

The table above excludes our gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits and our deferred grant. The gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $50.3 million as of March 30, 2024. The timing of any payments which could result from these unrecognized tax benefits will depend upon a number of factors and, accordingly, the timing of payment cannot be estimated. The deferred grant was $18.0 million as of March 30, 2024. The timing of any potential repayments is dependent upon a number of factors, including the number of employees and capital investments. Accordingly, the timing of any repayment cannot be estimated.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Historically, we have not participated in transactions that have generated relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of March 30, 2024, we were not involved in any such off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recent Accounting Standards
For a description of a recent change in accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects, if any, in our condensed consolidated financial statements, see Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
