NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization — Ultra Clean Holdings, Inc., (the “Company” or “UCT”) a Delaware corporation, was founded in November 2002 and became a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ Global Market in March 2004. The Company is a leading developer and supplier of critical subsystems, components, parts, and ultra-high purity cleaning and analytical services, primarily for the semiconductor industry. UCT offers its customers an integrated outsourced solution for major subassemblies, improved design-to-delivery cycle times, design for manufacturability, prototyping and part and component manufacturing, as well as tool chamber parts cleaning and coating, and micro-contamination analytical services. The Company’s Products business primarily designs, engineers and manufactures production tools, components and parts, and modules and subsystems for the semiconductor and display capital equipment markets. Products include chemical delivery modules, frame assemblies, gas delivery systems, fluid delivery systems, precision robotics, process modules, sub-fab process equipment support racks, as well as other high-level assemblies. The Company’s Services business provides ultra-high purity parts cleaning, process tool part recoating, surface encapsulation and high sensitivity micro contamination analysis primarily for the semiconductor device makers and wafer fabrication equipment markets.
Basis of Presentation — The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This financial information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Company, normal, recurring and necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2023.
Fiscal Year — The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday nearest December 31. All references to quarters refer to fiscal quarters and all references to years refer to fiscal years.
Principles of Consolidation — The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries and all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Significant Accounting Policies — There were no changes to the accounting policies disclosed in Note 1, Organization and Significant Accounting Polices of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2023 that had a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.
Impairment Testing of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill — In the second quarter of 2024, the Company conducted an interim impairment test of its long-lived assets and goodwill associated with its HIS Innovations Group (“HIS”) reporting unit due to the presence of an indicator of potential impairment. This indicator included lower-than-expected financial performance.
The Company reviewed the HIS asset group’s long-lived assets for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. Based on this assessment, the Company determined that the estimated undiscounted future cash flows exceeded the carrying values of the long-lived assets. Consequently, no impairment loss was recognized in the period.
The Company performed a quantitative assessment of goodwill for the HIS reporting unit using the income approach. The income approach involves estimating the future cash flows attributable and discounting these cash flows to their present value using an appropriate discount rate. The fair value of the reporting unit was then compared to its carrying amount, including goodwill. The results of this quantitative assessment indicated that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount. As a result, the Company concluded that no impairment of goodwill was necessary.
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
The Company has not adopted any new accounting standards during the nine months ended September 27, 2024 that have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
- 10 -
Index to Notes
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The Company is required to adopt this standard in the fiscal year 2024 for the annual reporting ending December 27, 2024, with retrospective disclosure of prior periods presented. The Company expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impact to its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends the guidance in ASC 740, Income Taxes. ASU No. 2023-09 is intended to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Company is required to adopt this standard prospectively in fiscal year 2025 for the annual reporting period ending December 26, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
On October 25, 2023, the Company acquired 100 % of the shares of HIS, a privately held company based in Hillsboro, Oregon. HIS is a leading supplier to the semiconductor sub-fab segment including the design, manufacturing, and integration of components, process solutions, and fully integrated sub-systems. The acquisition strengthens the Company's leadership in developing and supplying critical products to the semiconductor industry, and extends our reach into the sub-fab area.
The purchase price of HIS for purposes of the Company’s purchase price allocation was determined to be $ 73.6 million, which includes initial cash consideration of $ 46.5 million and the fair value of potential earn-out payments of approximately $ 27.1 million. These potential earn-out payments represent up to $ 70.0 million of cash consideration that may be payable based on the financial performance of the acquired business during the fiscal years 2023, 2024, and 2025. The fair value of the potential earn-out payments was determined utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model.
The Company has assigned the purchase price of HIS to the tangible assets, liabilities and identifiable intangible assets acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The excess of purchase price over the aggregate fair value was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill associated with the acquisition is primarily attributable to the future technology, market presence and knowledgeable and experienced workforce. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired was determined using the income approach taking into account the Company’s consideration of a number of inputs, including a third-party analysis that was based upon estimates and assumptions provided by the Company. These estimates and assumptions were determined through established and generally accepted valuation techniques and with the assistance of a valuation specialist.
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company completed the acquisition accounting and the valuation of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
The following table summarizes the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition, including all measurement period adjustments:

Long-lived assets used in operations are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the asset are less than the asset’s carrying value. Refer to Note 1, “Organization and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information regarding impairment testing of long-lived assets.

Index to Notes
The estimated fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is based upon quoted market prices obtained from independent pricing services for similar derivative contracts and these financial instruments are characterized as Level 2 assets in the fair value hierarchy.
The estimated fair value of pension obligation is based on expected years of service and average compensation. The valuation model used to value pension obligation utilizes mortality rate, inflation, interest rate risks and changes in the life expectancy for pensioners. These assumptions are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent actuary resulting in a Level 3 classification. As of September 27, 2024, the Company's aggregate pension benefit obligations was $ 12.3 million and the fair value of the pension plan assets was $ 11.2 million. The underfunded pension benefit obligations was $ 1.1 million as of September 27, 2024. The Company recognizes the overfunded or underfunded status of defined benefit pension plans, measured as the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the benefit obligation. Each overfunded plan is recognized as an asset and each underfunded plan is recognized as a liability.
The Company measures its contingent earn-out liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The significant unobservable inputs used in the model include the forecasted operating profit of the acquired business during each of calendar years 2024 and 2025. Significant increases or decreases to the forecasted results would result in a significantly higher or lower liability, with a higher liability capped by the contractual maximum of the contingent earn-out obligation. Ultimately, the liability will be equivalent to the amount paid, and the difference between the fair value estimate and amount paid will be recorded in earnings. The amount paid that is less than or equal to the contingent earn-out liability on the acquisition date is reflected as cash used in financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Any amount paid in excess of the contingent earn-out liability on the acquisition date will be reflected as cash used in operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, the Company recorded $( 0.8 ) million of loss and $ 22.0 million of gain, respectively from change in the fair value of contingent earn-out related to the acquisition of HIS. This gain (loss) from change in the fair value was recognized as other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
There were no transfers from Level 1 or Level 2. Fair value adjustments were noncash, and therefore did not impact the Company’s liquidity or capital resources.
5. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill
The Company’s methodology for allocating the purchase price relating to an acquisition is determined through established and generally accepted valuation techniques. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the sum of the amounts assigned to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed.
To test goodwill for impairment, the Company first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the Company concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, the Company does not proceed to perform a quantitative impairment test. If the Company concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, a quantitative goodwill impairment test will be performed by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. A quantitative impairment analysis, if necessary, considers the income approach, which requires estimates of the present value of expected future cash flows to determine a reporting unit’s fair value. Significant estimates include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, discount rates, and future economic and market conditions. A goodwill impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value. Any loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill and intangible assets requires significant judgment. The Company regularly monitors current business conditions and other factors including, but not limited to, adverse industry or economic trends and lower projections of profitability that may impact future operating results.

During the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, there were no changes to the Company's reporting units, and the Company did not recognize any impairment charges or additions to goodwill. Refer to Note 1, “Organization and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information regarding impairment testing of goodwill.
Details of aggregate goodwill of the Company are as follows:
(In millions) Products Services Total
Balance at September 27, 2024 $ 191.8 $ 73.5 $ 265.3
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are generally recorded in connection with a business acquisition. The Company evaluates the useful lives of its intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances require revising the remaining period of amortization. In addition, the Company reviews finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable and evaluates indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment annually, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. Management considers such indicators as significant differences in product demand from the estimates, changes in the competitive and economic environment, technological advances, and changes in cost structure. Refer to Note 1, “Organization and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information regarding impairment testing of intangible assets.

The Company amortizes its intangible assets on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the estimated economic life of the assets. Amortization expense was approximately $ 7.6 million and $ 22.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, respectively, and $ 5.5 million and $ 16.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively. Amortization expense related to recipes, standard operating procedures, developed technology and certain intellectual property/know-how is charged to cost of revenues and the remainder is charged to general and administrative expense.

6. BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS
On April 4, 2024, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement dated as of August 27, 2018 (as amended as of October 1, 2018, March 31, 2021, August 19, 2022, June 29, 2023 and July 27, 2023 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”), and the Existing Credit Agreement as further amended by the Sixth Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Sixth Amendment, the Existing Credit Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) extend the final maturity date of the term loan and revolving credit facilities under the Credit Agreement by 30 months; (ii) reduce the interest rate applicable to the term loan facility under the Credit Agreement by 0.25 % per annum; and (iii) increase the outstanding amount under the Term Loan of $ 475.4 million to $ 500 million.
The Sixth Amendment resulted in the receipts of an additional $ 67.7 million of debt, net of $ 1.1 million related lender fees from new or existing syndicate lenders which was offset by syndicate lenders who reduced their positions by $ 44.2 million. The Company capitalized additional $ 2.5 million of costs related to this amendment and continued to defer previously capitalized costs of $ 5.2 million. The Company expensed the third party transaction costs and the previously capitalized costs of extinguished debt of $ 3.6 million which was included in the other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine month period ended September 27, 2024.
The Company pays monthly interest payments in arrears and quarterly principal payments of 0.625 % of the outstanding principal balance since April 4, 2024, with the remaining principal paid upon maturity.
The revolving credit facility has an available commitment of $ 150.0 million and a maturity date of August 27, 2027. The Company pays a quarterly commitment fee in arrears equal to 0.25 % of the average daily available commitment outstanding. Outstanding letters of credit reduce the availability of the revolving credit facility and, as of September 27, 2024, the Company had $ 146.0 million, net of $ 4.0 million of outstanding letters of credit, available under this revolving credit facility.
The letter of credit facility has an available commitment of $ 50.0 million and a maturity date of August 27, 2027. The Company pays a quarterly fee in arrears equal to 2.5 % (subject to certain adjustments to the Term Loan) of the dollar equivalent of all outstanding letters of credit, and a fronting fee equal to 0.125 % of the undrawn and unexpired amount of each letter of credit. As of September 27, 2024, the Company had $ 4.0 million of outstanding letters of credit and $ 46.0 million of available commitments remaining under the letter of credit facility.
On June 29, 2023, the Company entered into a Fourth Amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement to replace the LIBOR-based reference interest rate option with a reference interest option based upon Term SOFR under the Credit Agreement.
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may elect that the Term Loan bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either (a) “ABR” (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus the applicable margin or (b) the “Eurodollar Rate” (as defined in the Credit Agreement), based on SOFR, plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin for the Term Loan is equal to a rate per annum to either (i) at any time that the Company’s corporate family rating is Ba3 (with a stable outlook) or higher from Moody’s and BB- (with a stable outlook) or higher from S&P, (x) 3.25 % for such Eurodollar term loans and (y) 2.25 % for such ABR term loans or (ii) at all other times, (x) 3.50 % for such Eurodollar term loans and (y) 2.50 % for such ABR term loans. Interest on the Term Loan is payable on (1) in the case of such ABR term loans, the last day of each calendar quarter and (2) in the case of such Eurodollar term loans, the last day of each relevant interest period and, in the case of any interest period longer than three months, on each successive date three months after the first day of such interest period.
At September 27, 2024, the Company had an outstanding amount under the Term Loan of $ 493.8 million, gross of unamortized debt issuance costs of $ 7.7 million. As of September 27, 2024, the interest rate on the outstanding Term Loan was 8.9 %.
The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants including a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio and a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. The Company currently has no revolving loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement. As of September 27, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained within the Credit Agreement.
The Company has a credit agreement with a local bank in the Czech Republic that provides for a revolving credit facility in the aggregate of up to 7.0 million euros (approximately $ 7.8 million). As of September 27, 2024, no debt was outstanding under this revolving credit facility.
Fluid Solutions has credit facilities with various financial institutions in Israel that provides borrowing up to $ 11.0 million. As of September 27, 2024, Fluid Solutions had a $ 6.1 million outstanding balance under these facilities with interest rate of 7.1 %.

Index to Notes
As of September 27, 2024, the Company’s total bank debt was $ 492.2 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $ 7.7 million. As of September 27, 2024, the Company had $ 146.0 million, $ 4.9 million, and $ 7.8 million available to draw from its credit facilities in the U.S., Israel and Czech Republic, respectively.
The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was based on Level 2 inputs, and fair value was determined using quoted prices for similar liabilities in inactive markets. The Company’s carrying value approximates fair value for the Company’s long-term debt.
7. INCOME TAX
The Company's effective tax rate was 97.1 % and ( 70.7 )% for the three months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively, and 66.0 % and ( 488.6 )% for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively. The Company’s income tax provision was $ 9.9 million and $ 5.3 million for the three months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively, and $ 28.2 million and $ 17.1 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively. The change in respective tax rates reflects, primarily, changes in the geographic mix of worldwide earnings and financial results in jurisdictions which are taxed at different rates and the impact of losses in jurisdictions with full valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Company management continuously evaluates the need for a valuation allowance and, as of September 27, 2024, concluded that a full valuation allowance on its U.S. federal and state and certain of its foreign deferred tax assets was still appropriate.
As of September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, the Company’s gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest, was $ 3.1 million and $ 2.7 million, respectively. Increases or decreases to interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions are included in the income tax provision in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Although it is possible that some of the unrecognized tax benefits could be settled within the next twelve months, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the outcome at this time.
8. RETIREMENT PLANS
Defined Benefit Plans
Cinos Korea has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees upon their retirement. The Company's entities in Israel also have noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering their employees upon their retirement. The benefits for these plans are based on expected years of service and average compensation. The net period costs are recognized as employees render the services necessary to earn the postretirement benefits. The Company records annual amounts relating to the pension plan based on calculations that incorporate various actuarial and other assumptions, including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases and turnover rates. The Company reviews its assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions based on current and expected rates of return and trends when it is appropriate to do so. The effect of modifications to those assumptions is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and amortized to net periodic cost over future periods using the corridor method. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under the plans are reasonable based on its experience and market conditions.
As of September 27, 2024, the benefit obligation of the plans was $ 12.3 million and the fair value of the benefit plan assets was $ 11.2 million which are invested in several fixed deposit accounts with financial institutions. As of September 27, 2024, the underfunded balance of the plans of $ 1.1 million has been recorded by the Company and is included in other liabilities.
Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss and contributed for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 were negligible. The Company and its subsidiaries contributed $ 0.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 and recognized $ 0.2 million and $ 0.4 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.
As of September 27, 2024, the Company's future estimated payment obligations for the respective fiscal years are as follows:

Employee Savings and Retirement Plan
The Company sponsors a 401(k) savings and retirement plan (the “401(k) Plan”) for all U.S. employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. Participants can elect to contribute to the 401(k) Plan, on a pre-tax basis, up to 25 % of their salary to a maximum of the IRS limit. The Company matches 50.0 % of each employee's contribution, up to a maximum of 6 % of the employee's eligible earnings. The Company made $ 0.8 million and $ 2.7 million discretionary employer contributions to the 401(k) Plan for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and $ 0.9 million and $ 2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.
9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
The Company leases real estate and equipment under various non-cancelable operating leases.
Contingencies
From time to time, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of the various legal proceedings and claims individually or in the aggregate cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company has not had a history of outcomes to date that have been material to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and does not believe that any of these proceedings or other claims will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
10. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
Treasury Stock
On October 20, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to purchase up to an aggregate of $ 150 million of the Company’s common stock over a three-year period. No shares were repurchased under this program for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, and for the three months ended September 29, 2023. For the nine months ended September 29, 2023, approximately 0.8 million shares were repurchased under this program with an aggregate cost of $ 23.7 million.
The Company may reissue these treasury shares as part of its stock-based compensation programs.
Non-controlling Interests
The Company owns part of the outstanding shares of Cinos Korea, a South Korean company that provides outsourced cleaning and recycling of precision parts for the semiconductor industry through its operating facilities in South Korea and through a partial interest in Cinos China.
The carrying value of the remaining interest held by another shareholder in Cinos Korea and the remaining interest in Cinos China are presented as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The noncontrolling interests were estimated based on the values of Cinos Korea and Cinos China on a 100 % basis. The values were calculated based on the pro-rata portion of total Services earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization contributed by each entity.
11. EMPLOYEE STOCK PLANS
Employee Stock Plans
- 18 -
Index to Notes
The Company grants stock awards in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) to its employees as part of the Company’s long-term equity compensation plan. These stock awards are granted to employees with a unit purchase price of zero dollars and typically vest over three years , subject to the employee’s continued service with the Company and, in the case of PSUs, subject to achieving certain performance goals and market conditions. The Company also grants common stock to its board members in the form of restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), which vest on the earlier of the next Annual Shareholder Meeting, or 365 days from date of grant.
Stock-based compensation expense includes compensation costs related to estimated fair values of awards granted. The estimated fair value of the Company’s equity-based awards is amortized on a straight-line basis over the awards’ vesting period and is adjusted for performance as it relates to PSUs.
The following table shows the Company’s stock-based compensation expense included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

(1) Stock-based compensation expense capitalized in inventory for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023 were immaterial.
For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, 27 thousand and 502 thousand RSUs were granted with a weighted average fair value of $ 39.72 and $ 41.37 per share, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, 14 thousand and 567 thousand RSUs were granted with a weighted average fair value of $ 32.55 and $ 28.41 per share, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, 125 thousand and 145 thousand PSUs were granted, respectively. No PSUs were granted for the three months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023.
For the nine months ended September 27, 2024and September 29, 2023, 26 thousand and 37 thousand RSAs were granted, respectively. No RSAs were granted for the three months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023.
The following table summarizes the Company’s combined RSU, PSU and RSA activity for the nine months ended September 27, 2024:
(In millions) Number of

Forfeited ( 0.3 )
Outstanding at September 27, 2024 1.4 56.7
Expected to vest at September 27, 2024 1.4 $ 56.7
As of September 27, 2024, approximately $ 29.4 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to employee and director awards remains to be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average period of 1.9 years, and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in future grants. The total unamortized expense of the Company’s unvested RSAs as of September 27, 2024 was $ 0.8 million.
Under the current PSU program, performance goals are set at the time of grant and performance is reviewed at the end of a three-year period. The percentage to be applied to each participant’s target award ranges from zero to 200 %, based upon the extent to which the financial performance goals are achieved. If specific performance threshold levels for the financial goals are met on an annual basis, the amount earned for that element will be applied to one-third of the participant’s PSU award granted to determine the number of total units earned.
Recipients of PSU awards generally must remain employed by the Company on a continuous basis through the end of the three-year performance period in order to receive any amount of the PSUs covered by that award. In events such as death,
- 19 -
Index to Notes
disability or retirement, the recipient may be entitled to pro-rata amounts of PSUs as defined in the Plan. Target shares subject to PSU awards do not have voting rights of common stock until earned and issued following the end of the three-year performance period.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The ESPP permits employees to purchase common stock at a discount through payroll withholdings at certain specified dates (purchase period) within a defined offering period. The purchase price is 85 % of the fair market value of the common stock at the end of the purchase period and is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code.
During the nine months ended September 27, 2024, 42 thousand shares were issued under the ESPP. No shares were issued under the ESPP during the three months ended September 27, 2024. The Company recorded $ 0.2 million and $ 0.5 million of expense related to ESPP for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024.
No shares were issued under the ESPP during the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023. The Company recorded $ 0.2 million and $ 0.3 million of expense related to ESPP for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023.
12. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies the performance obligations as evidenced by the transfer of control of the promised goods or services to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company sells its products and services primarily to customers in the semiconductor capital equipment industry. The Company’s revenues are highly concentrated, and therefore highly dependent upon a small number of customers. Typical payment terms with our customers range from thirty to sixty days .
The Company’s Products business segment provides warranty on its products for a period of up to two years and provides for warranty costs at the time of sale based on historical activity. Determination of the warranty reserve requires the Company to make estimates of product return rates and expected costs to repair or replace the products under warranty. If actual return rates and/or repair and replacement costs differ significantly from these estimates, adjustments to recognize additional cost of revenues may be required in future periods. The warranty reserve is included in other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and is not considered significant.
The Company’s products are manufactured and services provided at the Company's locations throughout the Americas, Asia Pacific and Europe and the Middle East (“EMEA”). Sales to customers are initiated through a purchase order and are governed by our standard terms and conditions, written agreements, or both. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of an agreement with a customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the products or when the Company provides the services. Based on the enforceable rights included in our agreements or prevailing terms and conditions, products produced by the Company without an alternative use are not protected by an enforceable right of payment that includes a reasonable profit throughout the duration of the agreement. Consignment sales are recognized in revenue at the earlier of the period that the goods are consumed or after a period of time subsequent to receipt by the customer as specified by terms of the agreement, provided control of the promised goods or services has transferred.
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Sales, value-add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Certain of our customers may receive cash-based incentives, such as rebates or credits, which are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers and reduce revenues recognized. Accruals for unpaid customer rebates of $ 1.8 million and $ 2.0 million as of September 27, 2024 and December 29, 2023, respectively, were netted against accounts receivable. The Company's disaggregated revenues are apportioned by segments within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Company’s principal markets include America, Asia Pacific and EMEA. The Company's foreign operations are conducted primarily through its subsidiaries in China, Malaysia, Singapore, Israel, Taiwan, South Korea, United Kingdom

Two customers’ accounts receivable balances, Lam Research Corporation and Applied Materials, Inc., were individually greater than 10% of accounts receivable as of December 29, 2023, in the aggregate approximately 26.8 % of total accounts receivable.
13. LEASES
The Company leases land, offices, facilities and equipment in locations throughout the United States, Asia Pacific and EMEA.
In 2023, the Company entered into a 60-year land lease in Malaysia with the intent of building a manufacturing site. The commencement date of the lease occurred in July 2024 contemporaneous with the Company obtaining control of the identified asset.
In the first quarter of 2024, the Company commenced a 10-year lease of manufacturing space in Austin, Texas, with a single 7-year renewal option at lease end. Additionally, the Company’s subsidiary in Czech Republic entered into 8-year lease of additional manufacturing and office space.
As a result, $ 21.9 million and $ 16.8 million were recorded at commencement date to operating lease right-of-use assets and to operating lease liabilities, respectively, in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet .

15. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
The Company prepares financial results based on three operating segments (Products, Services, and HIS) and two reportable segments (Products and Services). The Products and HIS operating segments have been aggregated into the Products reportable segment based upon consistency of economic characteristics, nature of products, similarity of production process, and class of customers. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (chief operating decision maker) views and evaluates operations based on the results of each of the operating segments. The following table describes each reportable segment:

The Company uses segment profit or loss as the primary measure of profitability to evaluate operating performance and to allocate capital resources. Segment profit or loss is defined as a segment’s income or loss from continuing operations before other income and income taxes included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Any intercompany sales and associated profit (and any other intercompany items) are eliminated from segment results. There were no significant intercompany eliminations for the periods presented.
