Business Description

OUR COMPANY Entegris, Inc. (“Entegris”, “the Company”, “us”, “we”, or “our”) is a leading supplier of critical advanced materials and process solutions for the semiconductor and other high-technology industries. We leverage our unique breadth of capabilities to provide customers with innovative, science-based solutions to their toughest technology challenges, helping improve productivity and product performance in the most advanced manufacturing environments. Semiconductors, or integrated circuits, are key components in electronic devices that continue to transform how we live, communicate and work. Many products and emerging applications—including artificial intelligence (“AI”), high-performance and cloud computing, smartphones, wearable technology, electric and autonomous vehicles, the Internet of Things, gaming, virtual/augmented reality, and smart healthcare— are expected to drive long-term secular demand for semiconductor and require faster, more powerful, more compact and more energy efficient semiconductors. Industry forecasts project semiconductor sales reaching approximately $1.6 trillion by 2030, which we believe will create significant opportunities for our products. As semiconductors move to smaller geometries and new device architectures, they require innovative materials and stringent purity standards throughout manufacturing. Entegris offers the industry’s most comprehensive electronic materials portfolio, with core capabilities in materials science and materials purity, and complementary solutions that accelerate time to yield. We believe these capabilities are critical enablers of our customers’ technology roadmaps. We expect these trends to create significant opportunities for our products, expand our served addressable market and increase Entegris’ content per wafer, positioning us to outperform our markets over the long term. Our business is organized and operated in two operating segments. These segments share common business systems and processes, technology centers and technology roadmaps. • The Materials Solutions segment, or MS, provides materials-based solutions, such as chemical vapor and atomic layer deposition materials, chemical mechanical planarization (“CMP”) slurries and pads, ion implantation specialty gases, formulated etch and clean materials, and other specialty materials that enable our customers to achieve better device performance and faster time to yield, while providing lower total cost of ownership. • The Advanced Purity Solutions segment, or APS, offers filtration, purification and contamination-control solutions that improve customers’ yield, device reliability and cost by ensuring the purity of critical liquid chemistries and gases and the cleanliness of wafers and other substrates used throughout semiconductor manufacturing processes, the semiconductor ecosystem and other high-technology industries. Our complementary capabilities enable co-optimized, integrated solutions that improve device performance, lower cost of ownership and accelerate time to market. We address complex manufacturing challenges across deposition, CMP and post-CMP modules with solutions including advanced deposition materials, CMP slurries, pads and post-CMP cleaning chemistries (each from our MS segment), and CMP slurry filters, high-purity packaging and fluid monitoring systems (each from our APS segment). As leading semiconductor manufacturers implement molybdenum into advanced nodes, Entegris is uniquely positioned to support this transition and to solve challenges associated with integrating a new material through our expertise and solutions in precursors, deposition, etch, CMP consumables and contamination control. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES On February 10, 2023, the Company terminated a definitive agreement to sell its Pipeline and Industrial Materials (“PIM”) business, which became part of the Company with the acquisition of CMC Materials, to Infineum USA L.P. At the time of the termination, the transaction had not received clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. On March 1, 2023, the Company completed the sale of QED Technologies International, Inc. (“QED”), which became part of the Company with the acquisition of CMC Materials, to an affiliate of Quad-C Management, Inc. for $134.3 million.…
