(the “Seller”), Semilab Zrt. and Semilab USA, as amended by the Amendment to Equity Purchase Agreement, dated October 9, 2025.

As previously disclosed, pursuant the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of Semilab USA from the Seller for $432,310,000 in cash (subject to certain customary purchase price adjustments) and 641,771 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the foregoing transactions, the “Semilab USA Acquisition”).

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified entirely by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the amendment thereto, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 30, 2025 and Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 10, 2025, respectively, both incorporated herein by reference.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”) which include statements relating to the Company’s business momentum and future growth; the benefit to customers and the capabilities of the Company’s products and customer service; the Company’s ability to both deliver products and services consistent with our customers’ demands and expectations and strengthen its market position, the Company’s beliefs about market opportunities, the benefits of the Semilab USA Acquisition to the Company, its stockholders and its customers, as well as other matters that are not purely historical data. The Company wishes to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provided for by the Act and cautions investors not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and that actual results may differ materially from those

Such factors include, but are not limited to, unexpected costs, charges, or expenses resulting from the Semilab USA Acquisition; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Semilab USA Acquisition, including as a result of delay in completing the Semilab USA Acquisition or integrating the acquired business with the business of the Company; difficulties and delays in achieving revenue and cost synergies anticipated to be realized from the Semilab USA Acquisition; evolving legal, regulatory, and tax regimes; changes in economic, financial, political, and regulatory conditions, in the United States and elsewhere, and other factors that contribute to uncertainty and volatility, natural and man-made disasters, civil unrest, pandemics, geopolitical uncertainty, and conditions that may result from legislative, regulatory, trade, and policy changes; risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the Semilab USA Acquisition; the risk that the Semilab USA Acquisition and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of the Company or the acquired business to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees, stockholders, strategic partners and other business relationships and on their operating results and business generally; the Company’s ability to deploy its resources to improve its position in its core markets; its ability to weather difficult economic environments; its ability to open new market opportunities and target high-margin markets; the strength/weakness of the back-end and/or front-end semiconductor market segments; fluctuations in customer capital spending; the Company’s ability to effectively manage its supply chain and adequately source components from suppliers to meet customer demand; its ability to adequately protect its intellectual property rights and maintain data security; its ability to effectively maneuver global trade issues and changes in trade and export license policies; the Company’s ability to maintain relationships with its customers and manage appropriate levels of inventory to meet customer demands; and the Company’s ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses and technologies. Additional information and considerations regarding the risks faced by the Company are available in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024, and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As the forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations, the Company cannot guarantee any related future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. The Company does not assume any obligation to update the forward-looking information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K, except as required by law.
