Note 1 — Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Description of Business

Veeco Instruments Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Veeco,” or the “Company”) operates in a single segment: the development, manufacture, sales, and support of semiconductor and thin film process equipment primarily sold to make electronic devices.

(b) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company reports interim quarters on a 13-week basis ending on the last Sunday of each period, which is determined at the start of each year. The Company’s fourth quarter always ends on the last day of the calendar year, December 31. During 2024 the interim quarters ended on March 31, June 30, and September 29, and during 2023 the interim quarters ended on April 2, July 2, and October 1. The Company reports these interim quarters as March 31, June 30, and September 30 in its interim consolidated financial statements.

(c) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include: (i) stand-alone selling prices for the Company’s products and services; (ii) allowances for doubtful accounts; (iii) inventory obsolescence; (iv) the useful lives and expected future cash flows of property, plant, and equipment and identifiable intangible assets; (v) the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit and related goodwill; (vi) investment valuations and the valuation of derivatives, deferred tax assets, and assets acquired in business combinations; (vii) the recoverability of long-lived assets; (viii) liabilities for product warranty and legal contingencies; (ix) share-based compensation; (x) lease term and incremental borrowing rates used in determining operating lease assets and liabilities; (xi) income tax uncertainties; (xii) purchase accounting estimates; and (xiii) contingent consideration estimates.

(d) Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Companies acquired during each reporting period are reflected in the results of the Company effective from their respective dates of acquisition through the end of the reporting period.

(e) Foreign Currencies

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries that operate using functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Results of operations are translated using monthly average exchange rates. Adjustments arising from the translation of the foreign currency financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries into U.S. dollars, including intercompany transactions of a long-term nature, are reported as currency translation adjustments in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are included in “Other operating expense (income), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(f) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized upon the transfer of control of the promised product or service to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for such product or service. The Company’s contracts with customers generally do not contain variable consideration. In the rare instances where variable consideration is included, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration and determines what portion of that, if any, has a high probability of significant subsequent revenue reversal, and if so, that amount is excluded from the transaction price. The Company’s contracts with customers frequently contain multiple deliverables, such as systems, upgrades, components, spare parts, installation, maintenance, and service plans. Judgment is required to properly identify the performance obligations within a contract and to determine how the revenue should be allocated among the performance obligations. The Company also evaluates whether multiple transactions with the same customer or related parties should be considered part of a single contract based on an assessment of whether the contracts or agreements are negotiated or executed within a short time frame of each other or if there are indicators that the contracts are negotiated in contemplation of one another.

 

When there are separate units of accounting, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price basis. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells the systems, upgrades, components, spare parts, installation, maintenance, and service plans. For items that are not sold separately, the Company estimates stand-alone selling prices generally using an expected cost plus margin approach.

 

Most of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company considers many facts when evaluating each of its sales arrangements to determine the timing of revenue recognition, including its contractual obligations and the nature of the customer’s post-delivery acceptance provisions. The Company’s system sales arrangements, including certain upgrades, generally include field acceptance provisions that may include functional or mechanical test procedures. For many of these arrangements, a customer source inspection of the system is performed in the Company’s facility, test data is sent to the customer documenting that the system is functioning to the agreed upon specifications prior to delivery, or other quality assurance testing is performed internally to ensure system functionality prior to shipment. Historically, such source inspection or test data replicates the field acceptance provisions that are performed at the customer’s site prior to final acceptance of the system. When the Company objectively demonstrates that the criteria specified in the contractual acceptance provisions are achieved prior to delivery either through customer testing or the Company’s historical experience of its tools meeting specifications, transfer of control of the product to the customer is considered to have occurred and revenue is recognized upon system delivery since there is no substantive contingency remaining related to the acceptance provisions at that date. For new products, new applications of existing products, or for products with substantive customer acceptance provisions where the Company cannot objectively demonstrate that the criteria specified in the contractual acceptance provisions have been achieved prior to delivery, revenue and the associated costs are deferred. The Company recognizes such revenue and costs upon obtaining objective evidence that the acceptance provisions can be achieved, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.

 

In certain cases, the Company’s contracts with customers contain a billing retention, which is billed by the Company and payable by the customer when field acceptance provisions are completed. Revenue recognized in advance of the amount that has been billed is recorded as a Contract Asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

The Company recognizes revenue related to maintenance and service contracts over time based upon the respective contract term. Installation revenue is recognized over time as the installation services are performed. The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of components, spare parts, and specified service engagements at a point in time, which is typically consistent with the time of delivery in accordance with the terms of the applicable sales arrangement.

 

The Company may receive advanced payments on system transactions. The timing of the transfer of goods or services related to the advanced payments is either at the discretion of the customer or expected to be within one year from the advanced receipt. As such, the Company does not adjust transaction prices for the time value of money. Incremental direct costs incurred related to the acquisition of a customer contract, such as sales commissions, are expensed as incurred since the expected performance period is one year or less.

 

The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling costs, including those costs incurred to move, package, and prepare the Company’s products for shipment and to move the products to a customer’s designated location, as a fulfillment activity, and the Company includes such costs in “Cost of sales” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as incurred. These costs are generally comprised of payments to third-party shippers. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.

(g) Warranty Costs

The Company typically provides standard warranty coverage on its systems for one year from the date of final acceptance by providing labor and parts necessary to repair the systems during the warranty period. The Company records the estimated warranty cost when revenue is recognized on the related system. Warranty cost is included in “Cost of sales” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated warranty cost is based on the Company’s historical experience with its systems and regional labor costs. The Company calculates the average service hours by region and parts expense per system utilizing actual service records to determine the estimated warranty charge. The Company updates its warranty estimates on a quarterly basis when the actual product performance or field expense differs from original estimates.

(h) Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include charges for the development of new technology and the transition of existing technology into new products or services.

(i) Advertising Expense

The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred and totaled $0.4 million, $0.4 million, and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

(j) Accounting for Share-based Compensation

Share-based awards exchanged for employee services are accounted for under the fair value method. Accordingly, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award. The expense for awards is recognized over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). The Company has elected to treat awards with only service conditions and with graded vesting as one award. Consequently, the total compensation expense is recognized straight-line over the entire vesting period, so long as the compensation cost recognized at any date at least equals the portion of the grant date fair value of the award that is vested at that date. Additionally, the Company will make adjustments to compensation expense for forfeitures as they occur.

In addition to stock options, restricted share awards (“RSAs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with time-based vesting, the Company grants performance share units and awards (“PSUs” and “PSAs”) that have either performance or market conditions. Compensation cost for PSUs and PSAs with market conditions is recognized over the requisite service period regardless of the expected level of achievement. For all PSUs and PSAs, the number of shares issued to the employee at the conclusion of the service period may vary from the original target based upon the level of attainment of the performance or market conditions.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to compute the estimated fair value of option awards and purchase rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation to compute the estimated fair value of awards with market conditions. The Black-Scholes model and Monte Carlo simulation include assumptions regarding dividend yields, expected volatility, expected option term, and risk-free interest rates. See Note 13, “Stock Plans,” for additional information.

(k) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will not be realized, which is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income.

(l) Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, investments, derivative financial instruments used in hedging activities, and accounts receivable. The Company invests in a variety of financial instruments and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution or commercial issuer. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material credit losses on its investments.

The Company maintains an allowance reserve for potentially uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company evaluates its allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where specific invoices are deemed to be uncollectible, the Company provides a specific allowance for bad debt against the amount due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. The Company also provides allowances based on its write-off history. Finally, the Company also considers its current expectations of future economic conditions, when estimating its allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $1.0 million at both December 31, 2024 and 2023.

To further mitigate the Company’s exposure to uncollectible accounts receivable, the Company may request certain customers provide a negotiable irrevocable letter of credit drawn on a reputable financial institution. These irrevocable letters of credit are typically issued to mature between zero and 90 days from the date the documentation requirements are met, typically when a system ships or upon receipt of final acceptance from the customer. The Company, at its discretion, may monetize these letters of credit on a non-recourse basis after they become negotiable but before maturity. The fees associated with the monetization are included in “Selling, general, and administrative” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and were immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.

(m) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses reflected in the consolidated financial statements approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of debt for footnote disclosure purposes, including current maturities, if any, is estimated using recently quoted market prices of the instrument, or if not available, a discounted cash flow analysis based on the estimated current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of instruments.

(n) Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-term Investments

All financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase are considered cash equivalents. Such items may include liquid money market funds, certificate of deposit and time deposit accounts, U.S. treasuries, government agency securities, and corporate debt. Investments that are classified as cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents includes $81.0 million and $97.8 million of cash equivalents at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

A portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents is held by its subsidiaries throughout the world, frequently in each subsidiary’s respective functional currency, which is typically the U.S. dollar. Approximately 31% and 29% of cash and cash equivalents were maintained outside the United States at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Short-term investments consist of marketable debt securities, and are generally classified as available-for-sale for use in current operations, if required, and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, presented as a separate component of stockholders’ equity under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive income” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These securities can include U.S. treasuries, government agency securities, corporate debt, and commercial paper, all with maturities of greater than three months when purchased. All realized gains and losses and unrealized losses resulting from declines in fair value that are other than temporary are included in “Other operating expense (income), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The specific identification method is used to determine the realized gains and losses on investments.

Non-marketable equity securities are equity securities without readily observable market prices and are included in “Other assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Non-marketable securities are measured at cost, adjusted for changes in observable prices minus impairment. Changes in fair value and impairment charges are included in “Other income (expense), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(o) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Each quarter the Company assesses the valuation and recoverability of all inventories: materials (raw materials, spare parts, and service inventory); work-in-process; finished goods; and evaluation inventory at customer facilities. Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage requirement is written down to its estimated net realizable value if less than cost. The Company evaluates usage requirements by analyzing historical usage, anticipated demand, alternative uses of materials, and other qualitative factors. Unanticipated changes in demand for the Company’s products may require a write down of inventory, which would be reflected in Cost of Sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period the revision is made. Inventory acquired as part of a business combination is recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition.

(p) Business Combinations

The Company allocates the fair value of the purchase consideration of the Company’s acquisitions to the tangible assets, intangible assets, and liabilities assumed, based on estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. Additionally, the Company estimates the fair value of contingent consideration included as part of the purchase price by assigning probabilities and discount factors to each of the various defined performance milestones, while using a Monte-Carlo simulation model to determine the most likely outcome for payments to be based on value of orders received.

(q) Goodwill

Goodwill is an asset representing the future economic benefits arising from assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment in the beginning of the fourth quarter of each year or more frequently if impairment indicators arise.

In testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount, and, if so, the Company then quantitatively compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, the Company then records an impairment loss equal to the difference, up to the carrying value of goodwill.

The Company determines the fair value of its reporting unit based on a reconciliation of the fair value of the reporting unit to the Company’s adjusted market capitalization. The adjusted market capitalization is calculated by multiplying the average share price of the Company’s common stock for the last ten trading days prior to the measurement date by the number of outstanding common shares and adding a control premium. The control premium is estimated using historical transactions in similar industries.

(r) Long-lived Assets

Long-lived intangible assets consist of purchased technology, customer relationships, patents, trademarks and tradenames, software licenses, and backlog and are initially recorded at fair value. Long-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives utilizing a method reflecting the pattern in which the economic benefits are consumed or straight-lined if such pattern cannot be reliably determined.

Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation expense is calculated based on the estimated useful lives of the assets by using the straight-line method. Amortization of leasehold improvements is recognized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, a recoverability test is performed utilizing undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group compared to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, impairment is recognized to the extent the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models or, when available, quoted market values and third-party appraisals.

(s) Leases

The Company determines at contract inception if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, of an identified asset for which the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from its use and the right to direct its use. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, while lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The implicit discount rate in the Company’s leases generally cannot readily be determined, and therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at lease commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company has options to renew or terminate certain leases. These options are included in the determination of lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components in determining ROU assets or lease liabilities

for real estate leases. Additionally, the Company does not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases with original terms or renewals of one year or less.

(t) Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company adopted ASU 2023-07: Segment Reporting (Topic 280) – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures on December 31, 2024. This standard primarily enhances disclosures about significant segment expenses. The standard requires interim and annual disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) and included within the reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss, requires interim disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit and loss and assets that are currently required annually, requires disclosure of the position and title of the CODM, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss and contains other disclosure requirements. Refer to Note 16 for further details.

(u) Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires public entities to disclose consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and for income taxes paid. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statements Expenses (Subtopic 220-40),” to improve income statement expenses disclosure. The standard requires more detailed information related to the types of expenses, including (among other items) the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included within each interim and annual income statement’s expense caption, as applicable. This authoritative guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively and will be effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company is evaluating other pronouncements recently issued but not yet adopted. The adoption of these pronouncements is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 — Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares used to calculate basic income per share plus the weighted average number of common share equivalents outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of outstanding options to purchase common stock and share-based awards is considered in diluted income per share by application of the treasury stock method. Finally, the Company includes the dilutive effect of shares issuable upon conversion of its Notes in the calculation of diluted income per share using the if-converted method. The Company has the option for the 2025 and 2027 Notes to settle the conversion value in any combination of cash or shares, and as such, the maximum number of shares issuable are included in the dilutive share count if the effect would be dilutive. The Company must settle the principal amount of the 2029 Notes in cash, and has the option to settle any excess of the conversion value over the principal amount in any combination of cash or shares. As such, the Company only includes the excess shares that may be issuable above the principal amount of the 2029 Notes in the dilutive share count, if the effect would be dilutive.

The computations of basic and diluted income (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 are as follows:

Note 3 — Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received for an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The Company is required to classify certain assets and liabilities based on the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company has evaluated the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and valuations as provided by third-party sources. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Epiluvac

On January 31, 2023, the Company acquired Epiluvac AB, a privately held manufacturer of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) epitaxy systems that enable silicon carbide (SiC) applications in the electric vehicle market. The results of Epiluvac’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.

The acquisition date fair value of the consideration totaled $56.4 million, net of cash acquired, which consisted of the following:

$

56,428

The purchase agreement included performance milestones that, if achieved, could trigger additional payments to the original selling shareholders. The contingent arrangements include payments up to $15.0 million based on the timely completion of certain defined milestones tied to strategic targets, and up to $20.0 million based on the percentage of orders received during the defined earn-out period. The earn-out period is four years after the closing date of the acquisition, or earlier if certain conditions are met.

The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration by assigning probabilities and discount factors to each of the various defined performance milestones, while using a Monte-Carlo simulation model to determine the most likely outcome for payments to be based on the value of orders received. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The discount rate used was 5.54% for the strategic target and order value related contingent payments. The rate was determined based on the nature of the milestone, the risks and uncertainties involved and the time period until the milestone was measured. The determination of the various probabilities and discount factors is highly subjective, requires significant judgment and is influenced by a number of factors, including the adoption of SiC technology. The aggregate fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement at the acquisition date was $26.1 million.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

The Company determined the estimated fair value of the identifiable intangible assets based on various factors including cost, discounted cash flow, income method, loss-of-revenue/income method, and relief-from-royalty method in determining the purchase price allocation.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred approximately $1.1 million of acquisition related costs, included within “Selling, general, and administrative” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Additionally, the pro forma Consolidated Statement of Operations as if Epiluvac had been acquired as of January 1, 2022 would not be materially different from the Company’s actual Consolidated Statement of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, or 2022.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company lowered its projected cash flows for the Epiluvac asset group as a result of the Company’s market penetration not meeting expectations associated with the SiC technology, and determined that the revised projections were significantly lower than projected cash flows at the time of the acquisition and that these

revised projections required the Company to assess the Epiluvac asset group for impairment. See Note 8, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” for additional information.

 

Additionally, the Company updates its estimate of fair value of the contingent consideration each reporting period, utilizing the same methodologies described above. The discount rate used was 5.4% at December 31, 2024 for the strategic target and order value related contingent payments. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company reduced the contingent consideration by approximately $21.2 million as a result of the lowered projected bookings, the benefit for which was included within “Other operating expense (income) net” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company paid $1.8 million to the original selling shareholders associated with the settlement of a strategic target milestone. The total contingent consideration liability as of December 31, 2024 was $1.2 million, of which $0.7 million was included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $0.5 million was included within “Other liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Note 8 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. There were no changes in goodwill balances during the year ended December 31, 2024.

The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test at the beginning of the fourth quarter each year. As the Company maintains a single goodwill reporting unit, it determines the fair value of its reporting unit based upon the Company’s adjusted market capitalization. The annual test performed at the beginning of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, 2023, and 2022 did not result in any potential impairment as the fair value of the reporting unit was determined to exceed the carrying amount of the reporting unit.

The valuation of goodwill will continue to be subject to changes in the Company’s market capitalization and observable market control premiums. This analysis is sensitive to changes in the Company’s stock price and absent other qualitative factors, the Company may be required to record goodwill impairment charges in future periods if the stock price declines and remains depressed for an extended period of time.

Other intangible assets primarily consist of patents, licenses, and backlog.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company lowered its projected cash flows for the Epiluvac asset group, which were significantly below the projected cash flows at the time of the acquisition. The reduced projections were based on the Company’s market penetration not meeting expectations associated with the SiC technology. This required the Company to assess the Epiluvac asset group for impairment. As a result of the analysis, which included projected sales and other cash flows that required the use of unobservable inputs, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $28.1 million related to definite-lived intangible assets during the fourth quarter of 2024. The impairment charge is included in “Asset impairment” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Based on the intangible assets recorded at December 31, 2024, and assuming no subsequent additions to or impairment of the underlying assets, the remaining estimated annual amortization expense, is expected to be as follows:

Contract Liabilities and Performance Obligations

Contract liabilities consist of unsatisfied performance obligations related to advanced payments received and billing in excess of revenue recognized. The contract liability balance as of December 31, 2023 was approximately $118.0 million, of which the Company recognized approximately $97.0 million into revenue during the year ended December 31, 2024.

This reduction in contract liabilities was offset by new billings for products and services which were unsatisfied performance obligations to customers and revenue had not yet been recognized as of December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company has approximately $57.0 million of remaining performance obligations on contracts with an original estimated duration of one year or more, of which approximately 77% is expected to be recognized within one year, with the remaining amounts expected to be recognized between one to three years. The Company has elected to exclude disclosures regarding remaining performance obligations that have an original expected duration of one year or less.

Other liabilities

Other Liabilities at December 31, 2024 was approximately $3.8 million, which included medical and dental benefits for former executives, asset retirement obligations, contingent consideration, and tax liabilities.

Variable lease expense, which includes costs not included in the operating lease costs, for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $1.3 million, $1.1 million, and $2.0 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company has an immaterial amount of short-term leases. Lease expense, which includes operating lease costs and variable lease costs, was $6.1 million, $6.1 million, and $9.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. In addition, the Company is obligated under such leases for certain other expenses, including real

estate taxes and insurance. Operating cash outflows from operating leases for the year ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 were $6.8 million, $5.8 million, and $7.5 million, respectively.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company depends on purchases from its ten largest customers, which accounted for 63% and 65% of net accounts receivable at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Customers who accounted for more than 10% of net accounts receivable or net sales are as follows:

Less than 10% of aggregate accounts receivable or net sales

The Company manufactures and sells its products to companies in different geographic locations. Refer to Note 16, “Segment Reporting and Geographic Information,” for additional information. In certain instances, the Company requires deposits from its customers for a portion of the sales price in advance of shipment and performs periodic credit evaluations on its customers. Where appropriate, the Company requires letters of credit on certain non-U.S. sales arrangements. Receivables generally are due within 30 to 90 days from the date of invoice. In some geographies, receivables may be payable up to 150 days from the date of the invoice.

Receivable Purchase Agreement

The Company entered into a receivable purchase agreement with a financial institution to sell certain of its trade receivables from customers without recourse, up to $30.0 million at any point in time. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company sold $8.0 million of receivables during the year ended December 31, 2024, of which no amounts remained outstanding as of December 31, 2024 as defined in the receivable purchase agreement, and $30.0 million was available under the agreement for additional sales of receivables. The Company sold $32.7 million of receivables during the year ended December 31, 2023. The net sale of accounts receivable under the agreement is reflected as a reduction of accounts receivable in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at the time of sale and any fees for the sale of trade receivables were not material for the periods presented.

Suppliers

The Company outsources certain functions to third parties, including the manufacture of several of its systems. While the Company relies on its outsourcing partners to perform their contracted functions, the Company maintains some level of internal manufacturing capability for these systems. In addition, certain of the components and sub-assemblies included in the Company’s products are obtained from a single source or a limited group of suppliers. The failure of the

Company’s present outsourcing partners and suppliers to meet their contractual obligations and the Company’s inability to make alternative arrangements or resume the manufacture of these systems could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues, profitability, cash flows, and relationships with its customers.

The Company had deposits with its suppliers of $18.7 million and $19.4 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, that were included in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Purchase Commitments

The Company had purchase commitments of $177.4 million at December 31, 2024, the majority of which will come due within one year. Purchase commitments are primarily for inventory used in manufacturing products, as well as equipment and project materials used to support research and development activities, and are partially offset by existing deposits with suppliers.

Bank Guarantees

The Company has bank guarantees and letters of credit issued by a financial institution on its behalf as needed. At December 31, 2024, outstanding bank guarantees and letters of credit totaled $18.1 million and unused bank guarantees and letters of credit of $21.6 million were available to be drawn upon.

On November 17, 2020, as part of a privately negotiated exchange agreement, the Company issued $132.5 million of 3.50% convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”). The 2025 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on July 15, 2021. The 2025 Notes mature on January 15, 2025, unless earlier purchased by the Company, redeemed, or converted.

The Company accounted for the partial settlement of the 2025 Notes as an extinguishment, and as such, recorded a loss on extinguishment of approximately $16.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is included in “Other income (expense), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The 2025 Notes that remained outstanding matured on January 15, 2025 and were settled through the issuance of 1.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock to the noteholders.

2027 Notes

On May 18, 2020, the Company completed a private offering of $125.0 million of 3.75% convertible senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”). The Company received net proceeds of approximately $121.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and fees and expenses payable by the Company. Additionally, the Company used approximately $10.3 million of cash to purchase capped calls, discussed below. The 2027 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.75% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2020. The 2027 Notes mature on June 1, 2027, unless earlier purchased by the Company, redeemed, or converted.

On May 19, 2023, in connection with the completion of a private offering of $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.875% convertible senior notes due 2029 described below, the Company repurchased and retired approximately $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 2027 Notes, with a carrying amount of $98.5 million, for approximately $92.8 million of cash and 3.8 million shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company accounted for the partial settlement of the 2027 Notes as an extinguishment, and as such, recorded a loss on extinguishment of approximately $80.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is included in “Other income (expense), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

2029 Notes

On May 19, 2023, the Company completed a private offering of $230.0 million of 2.875% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). The Company received net proceeds of approximately $223.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and fees and expenses payable by the Company. Additionally, the Company used approximately $198.8 million of net proceeds from the offering to fund the cash portion of the 2025 Notes and 2027 Notes extinguishments described above and retained the remainder for general corporate purposes. The 2029 Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.875% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2023. The 2029 Notes mature on June 1, 2029, unless earlier purchased by the Company, redeemed, or converted. The Company will settle any conversions of the 2029 Notes by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be converted, and paying or delivering either cash, shares of the Company’s stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock at the Company’s election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of the conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes being converted.

The 2025 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2029 Notes (collectively, the “Notes”) are unsecured obligations of Veeco and rank senior in right of payment to any of Veeco’s subordinated indebtedness; equal in right of payment to all of Veeco’s unsecured indebtedness that is not subordinated; effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of Veeco’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of Veeco’s subsidiaries. The Notes are recorded as a single unit within liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets as the conversion features within the Notes are not derivatives that require bifurcation and the Notes do not involve a substantial premium. Transaction costs of $9.2 million, $1.9 million, $3.1 million, and $6.8 million incurred in connection with the issuance of the 2023 Notes, 2025 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2029 Notes, respectively, were recorded as direct deductions from the related debt liabilities and recognized as non-cash interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected terms of the Notes.

The Company may redeem for cash, at its option, all or any portion of (i) the outstanding 2025 Notes at any time on or after January 15, 2023, (ii) the outstanding 2027 Notes at any time on or after June 6, 2024 and/or (iii) the outstanding 2029 Notes at any time on or after June 8, 2026, in each case, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, if the last reported sale price of the common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the applicable series of Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period

(including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides the redemption notice. Upon the Company’s notice of redemption, holders may elect to convert their Notes based on the conversion rates and criteria outlined below.

The Notes are convertible at the option of the holders upon the satisfaction of specified conditions and during certain periods as described below. The initial conversion rates are 41.6667, 71.5372, and 34.21852 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2025 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2029 Notes, respectively, representing initial effective conversion prices of $24.00, $13.98, and $29.22 per share of common stock, respectively. The conversion rates may be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events.

Holders may convert all or any portion of their notes, in multiples of one thousand dollar principal amount, at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding October 15, 2024 with respect to the 2025 Notes, October 1, 2026 with respect to the 2027 Notes, and February 1, 2029, with respect to the 2029 Notes, only under the following circumstances:

(i)During any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

(ii)During the five consecutive business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per one thousand dollar principal amount of Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of Veeco’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

(iii)If the Company calls any or all of applicable series of the Notes for redemption at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

(iv)Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events.

For the calendar quarter ended December 31, 2024, the last reported sales price of common stock during the 30 consecutive trading days, based on the criteria outlined in (i) above, was greater than 130% of the conversion price of the 2027 Notes, and as such the 2027 Notes are convertible by the holders and callable by the Company until March 31, 2025.

Holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances, on or after October 15, 2024 with respect to the 2025 Notes, October 1, 2026 with respect to the 2027 Notes, and February 1, 2029 with respect to the 2029 Notes, until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the respective maturity date.

The Company determined the 2025 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2029 Notes are Level 2 liabilities in the fair value hierarchy and had estimated fair values at December 31, 2024 of $30.3 million, $49.5 million, and $277.4 million, respectively.

Capped Call Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2027 Notes, on May 13, 2020, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”), pursuant to capped call confirmations, covering the total principal amount of the 2027 Notes for an aggregate premium of $10.3 million. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the 2027 Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the aggregate principal amount of converted 2027 Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on the capped price of the Capped Call Transactions. The Capped Call Transactions exercise price is equal to the initial conversion price of the 2027 Notes, and the capped price of the Capped Call Transactions is approximately $18.46 per share and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call confirmations.

The Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions entered into by the Company with the capped call counterparties, are not part of the terms of the 2027 Notes and do not change the holders’ rights under the 2027 Notes. Holders of the 2027 Notes do not have any rights with respect to the Capped Call Transactions. The cost of the Capped Call Transactions is not expected to be tax-deductible as the Company did not elect to integrate the Capped Call Transactions into the 2027 Notes for tax purposes. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2027 Notes to pay for the Capped Call Transactions, and the cost of the Capped Call Transactions was recorded as a reduction of the Company’s additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Revolving Credit Facility

On December 16, 2021, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement providing for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $150 million (the “Credit Facility”), including a $15 million letter of credit sublimit. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company’s direct material U.S. subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, subject to customary exceptions. The Credit Facility has a term of five years maturing on December 16, 2026. Subject to certain conditions and the receipt of commitments from the lenders, the Loan and Security Agreement allows for revolving commitments under the Credit Facility to be increased by up to $75 million. The existing lenders under the Credit Facility are entitled, but not obligated, to provide such incremental commitments. On August 2, 2024, lenders increased the Credit Facility by $75 million, and as such the total available under the revised Credit Facility is $225 million.

Borrowings will bear interest at a floating rate which can be, at the Company’s option, either (a) an alternate base rate plus an applicable rate ranging from 0.50% to 1.25% or (b) a SOFR rate (with a floor of 0.00%) for the specified interest period plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.50% to 2.25%, in each case, depending on the Company’s Secured Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement). The Company will pay an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.35% based on unused capacity under the Credit Facility and the Company’s Secured Net Leverage Ratio. The Company may use the proceeds of borrowings under the Credit Facility to pay transaction fees and expenses, provide for its working capital needs and reimburse drawings under letters of credit and for other general corporate purposes.

The Loan and Security Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants for transactions of this type, including, among others, the provision of financial and other information to the administrative agent, notice to the administrative agent upon the occurrence of certain material events, preservation of existence, maintenance of properties and insurance, compliance with laws, including environmental laws, the provision of additional guarantees, and an affiliate transactions covenant, subject to certain exceptions. The Loan and Security Agreement contains customary negative covenants, including, among others, restrictions on the ability to merge and consolidate with other companies, incur indebtedness, refinance our existing convertible notes, grant liens or security interests on assets, make investments, acquisitions, loans, or advances, pay dividends, and sell or otherwise transfer assets.

The Loan and Security Agreement contains financial maintenance covenants that require the Borrower to maintain an Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) of not less than 3.00 to 1.00, a Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) of not more than 4.50 to 1.00, and a Secured Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) of not more than 2.50 to 1.00, in each case, tested at the end of each fiscal quarter commencing with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2024. The Loan and Security Agreement also provides for a number of customary events of default, including, among others: payment defaults to the lenders; voluntary and involuntary bankruptcy proceedings; covenant defaults; material inaccuracies of representations and warranties; certain change of control events; material money judgments; and other customary events of default. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of obligations and the termination of lending commitments under the Loan and Security Agreement.

No amounts were outstanding under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

Note 13 — Stock Plans

Share-based incentive awards are provided to employees under the terms of the Company’s equity incentive compensation plans (the “Plans”), which are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The 2019 Plan originated as the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan and was originally approved by the Company’s shareholders in May 2010. This Plan was subsequently amended, as approved by shareholders, in 2013, 2016, 2019 (at which time the Plan was renamed the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan), 2022, and 2024 (as amended to date, the “2019 Plan”). The Company’s employees, non-employee directors, and consultants are eligible to receive awards under the 2019 Plan, which can include non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, RSAs, RSUs, PSAs, PSUs, share appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, or any combination thereof.

The Company is authorized to issue up to 21.3 million shares under the 2019 Plan. Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day prior to the date of grant; option awards generally vest over a three-year period and have a seven or ten year term. RSAs and RSUs generally vest over one to five years. Certain option and share awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control, as defined in the 2019 Plan. At December 31, 2024, there are no option shares outstanding and 2.4 million RSUs and PSUs outstanding under the 2019 Plan.

The Company is authorized to issue up to 2.25 million shares under the approved 2016 employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”), including additional shares authorized under plan amendments approved by shareholders in 2019 and 2021. Under the ESPP, substantially all employees in the U.S. may purchase the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85 percent of the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the

beginning or end of each six-month offer period, as defined in the ESPP, and subject to certain limits. The ESPP was approved by the Company’s shareholders.

Shares Reserved for Future Issuance

At December 31, 2024, the Company has 7.0 million shares reserved to cover exercises of outstanding stock options, vesting of RSUs, and additional grants under the 2019 Plan. At December 31, 2024, the Company has 0.2 million shares reserved to cover future issuances under the ESPP Plan.

RSAs, RSUs, PSAs, PSUs

RSAs are stock awards issued to employees and directors that are subject to specified restrictions and a risk of forfeiture. RSUs are stock awards issued to employees that entitle the holder to receive shares of common stock as the awards vest. PSAs and PSUs are awards that result in an issuance of shares of common stock to employees if certain performance or market conditions are achieved. All of these awards typically vest over one to four years and vesting is subject to the employee's continued service with the Company and, in the case of performance awards, meeting certain performance or market conditions. The fair value of the awards is determined and fixed based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day prior to the date of grant, or, in the case of performance awards with market conditions, fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation.

Each performance award is included in the table above at the grant date target share amount until the end of the performance period if not previously forfeited.

The fair value of performance awards with market conditions is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by employees who receive these awards. The weighted average fair value and the assumptions used in calculating such values during fiscal years 2024, 2023, and 2022 for performance awards with market conditions were based on estimates at the date of grant as follows:

The Company does not permanently reinvest its earnings from certain foreign jurisdictions and has accrued for foreign tax withholdings of $1.2 million on its unremitted earnings as of December 31, 2024.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s income tax benefit of $4.9 million was primarily attributed to 1) a $12.2 million income tax benefit associated with asset impairments, 2) a $7.9 million income tax benefit related to research and development tax credits, and 3) a $5.1 million income tax benefit related to Foreign-Derived Intangible Income, partially offset by 4) a $20.3 million income tax expense related to pre-tax income from operations.

At December 31, 2024, the Company had U.S. federal research and development credits of $35.1 million that will expire between 2035 and 2044. Additionally, the Company has state and local NOL carryforwards of approximately $55.4 million (a net deferred tax asset of $3.9 million, net of federal tax benefits and before the valuation allowance) that will expire between 2026 and 2041. Finally, the Company has state credits of $34.2 million, some of which are indefinite and others that will expire between 2025 and 2039.

If the amount of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2024 were recognized, the Company’s income tax provision would decrease by $14.7 million. The gross amount of interest and penalties accrued in income tax payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets was approximately $0.7 million and $0.6 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction, and various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. All material consolidated federal income tax matters have been concluded for years through 2017 subject to subsequent utilization of NOLs generated in such years. All material state and local income tax matters have been reviewed through 2012. The majority of the Company’s foreign jurisdictions have been reviewed through 2015. The Company’s major foreign jurisdictions’ statutes of limitation remain open with respect to the tax years 2016 through 2023 for Germany, 2017 through 2023 for China, 2022 through 2023 for Taiwan, and 2021 through 2023 for Singapore. The Company does not anticipate that its uncertain tax position will change significantly within the next twelve months subject to the completion of the ongoing tax audits and any resultant settlement.

Note 16 — Segment Reporting and Geographic Information

The Company operates and measures its results in one operating segment and therefore has one reportable segment: the development, manufacture, sales, and support of semiconductor and thin film process equipment primarily sold to make electronic devices. The accounting policies of this one operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer, assesses segment performance and decides how to allocate resources based on net income that is reported on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as total assets. The Company does not have intra-entity sales or transfers. The CODM uses net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the segment or into other parts of the Company, such as for acquisitions. Net income is used to monitor forecast versus actual results. The CODM also uses net income in competitive analysis by benchmarking the Company’s competitors. The competitive analysis along with the monitoring of forecasted versus actual results are used in assessing performance of the segment. The Company regularly provides management reports to the CODM on a consolidated expense basis which includes actuals, forecasted, and budgeted information. These reports are similar to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

There are no additional expenses categories and amounts that meet the definition of significant expense items that are regularly provided to the CODM and included in the reported measure of net income.

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]

Cybersecurity represents a critical component of the Company’s overall approach to risk management. Our cybersecurity practices are integrated into the Company’s enterprise risk management (“ERM”) approach, and cybersecurity risks are among the core enterprise risks identified for oversight by our Board of Directors and the Board’s Audit Committee through our annual ERM assessment. Our cybersecurity policies and practices follow the cybersecurity framework of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and other applicable industry standards. We generally approach cybersecurity threats through a cross-functional, multi-layered approach, with the specific goals of: (i) identifying, preventing and mitigating cybersecurity threats to the Company; (ii) maintaining the confidence of our customers, clients and business partners; (iii) preserving the confidentiality of internal and external information; and (iv) protecting the Company’s intellectual property.

Consistent with the Company’s overall ERM practices, our cybersecurity program focuses on the following areas:

Vigilance: The Company maintains a global presence, with cybersecurity threat operations operating 24/7 around the world with a specific goal of detecting, containing and responding to cybersecurity threats and incidents.
Collaboration: The Company has established collaboration mechanisms with public and private entities, including intelligence and enforcement agencies, industry groups and third-party service providers to identify and assess cybersecurity risks.
Systems Safeguards: The Company deploys technical safeguards that are designed to protect the Company’s information systems from cybersecurity threats, including firewalls, intrusion prevention and detection systems, anti-malware functionality, access controls and ongoing vulnerability assessments.
Third-Party Management: The Company maintains a comprehensive, risk-based approach to identifying and overseeing cybersecurity risks presented by third parties, such as vendors, service providers and other users of the Company’s systems.
Education: The Company provides periodic training for personnel regarding cybersecurity threats, with such training scaled to reflect the roles, responsibilities, and access of the relevant Company personnel.
Incident Response Planning: The Company has established and maintains incident response plans that address the Company’s response to a cybersecurity incident, and such plans are tested on an ongoing basis.
Communication and Coordination: The Company utilizes a cross-functional approach to address the risk from cybersecurity threats and has formed an Information Security Leadership Group which includes management personnel from information technology, operations, legal, internal audit and other key business functions. The Information Security Leadership Group typically meets on a monthly basis, and more frequently as necessary.
Governance: Pursuant to the Company’s ERM practices, oversight of cybersecurity risk management has been assigned to the full Board and to the Board’s Audit Committee. Quarterly updates are provided by Company management, including the Company’s Chief Information Security Officer, to the Audit Committee (three times per year) and the full Board (annually), to help ensure an ongoing dialogue regarding the Company’s cybersecurity initiatives, threats and incidents.

A key part of the Company’s strategy for managing risks from cybersecurity threats is the ongoing assessment and testing of the Company’s processes and practices through auditing, assessments, tabletop exercises and other exercises focused on evaluating effectiveness. The Company regularly engages third parties to perform assessments on our cybersecurity measures, including information security maturity assessments and independent reviews of our information security control environment and operating effectiveness and adjusts its cybersecurity processes and practices as necessary.

Significant Accounting Policies  
Basis of Presentation

(b) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company reports interim quarters on a 13-week basis ending on the last Sunday of each period, which is determined at the start of each year. The Company’s fourth quarter always ends on the last day of the calendar year, December 31. During 2024 the interim quarters ended on March 31, June 30, and September 29, and during 2023 the interim quarters ended on April 2, July 2, and October 1. The Company reports these interim quarters as March 31, June 30, and September 30 in its interim consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

(c) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include: (i) stand-alone selling prices for the Company’s products and services; (ii) allowances for doubtful accounts; (iii) inventory obsolescence; (iv) the useful lives and expected future cash flows of property, plant, and equipment and identifiable intangible assets; (v) the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit and related goodwill; (vi) investment valuations and the valuation of derivatives, deferred tax assets, and assets acquired in business combinations; (vii) the recoverability of long-lived assets; (viii) liabilities for product warranty and legal contingencies; (ix) share-based compensation; (x) lease term and incremental borrowing rates used in determining operating lease assets and liabilities; (xi) income tax uncertainties; (xii) purchase accounting estimates; and (xiii) contingent consideration estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

(d) Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Companies acquired during each reporting period are reflected in the results of the Company effective from their respective dates of acquisition through the end of the reporting period.

Foreign Currencies

(e) Foreign Currencies

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries that operate using functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Results of operations are translated using monthly average exchange rates. Adjustments arising from the translation of the foreign currency financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries into U.S. dollars, including intercompany transactions of a long-term nature, are reported as currency translation adjustments in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are included in “Other operating expense (income), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Revenue Recognition

(f) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized upon the transfer of control of the promised product or service to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for such product or service. The Company’s contracts with customers generally do not contain variable consideration. In the rare instances where variable consideration is included, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration and determines what portion of that, if any, has a high probability of significant subsequent revenue reversal, and if so, that amount is excluded from the transaction price. The Company’s contracts with customers frequently contain multiple deliverables, such as systems, upgrades, components, spare parts, installation, maintenance, and service plans. Judgment is required to properly identify the performance obligations within a contract and to determine how the revenue should be allocated among the performance obligations. The Company also evaluates whether multiple transactions with the same customer or related parties should be considered part of a single contract based on an assessment of whether the contracts or agreements are negotiated or executed within a short time frame of each other or if there are indicators that the contracts are negotiated in contemplation of one another.

 

When there are separate units of accounting, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price basis. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells the systems, upgrades, components, spare parts, installation, maintenance, and service plans. For items that are not sold separately, the Company estimates stand-alone selling prices generally using an expected cost plus margin approach.

 

Most of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company considers many facts when evaluating each of its sales arrangements to determine the timing of revenue recognition, including its contractual obligations and the nature of the customer’s post-delivery acceptance provisions. The Company’s system sales arrangements, including certain upgrades, generally include field acceptance provisions that may include functional or mechanical test procedures. For many of these arrangements, a customer source inspection of the system is performed in the Company’s facility, test data is sent to the customer documenting that the system is functioning to the agreed upon specifications prior to delivery, or other quality assurance testing is performed internally to ensure system functionality prior to shipment. Historically, such source inspection or test data replicates the field acceptance provisions that are performed at the customer’s site prior to final acceptance of the system. When the Company objectively demonstrates that the criteria specified in the contractual acceptance provisions are achieved prior to delivery either through customer testing or the Company’s historical experience of its tools meeting specifications, transfer of control of the product to the customer is considered to have occurred and revenue is recognized upon system delivery since there is no substantive contingency remaining related to the acceptance provisions at that date. For new products, new applications of existing products, or for products with substantive customer acceptance provisions where the Company cannot objectively demonstrate that the criteria specified in the contractual acceptance provisions have been achieved prior to delivery, revenue and the associated costs are deferred. The Company recognizes such revenue and costs upon obtaining objective evidence that the acceptance provisions can be achieved, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.

 

In certain cases, the Company’s contracts with customers contain a billing retention, which is billed by the Company and payable by the customer when field acceptance provisions are completed. Revenue recognized in advance of the amount that has been billed is recorded as a Contract Asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

The Company recognizes revenue related to maintenance and service contracts over time based upon the respective contract term. Installation revenue is recognized over time as the installation services are performed. The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of components, spare parts, and specified service engagements at a point in time, which is typically consistent with the time of delivery in accordance with the terms of the applicable sales arrangement.

 

The Company may receive advanced payments on system transactions. The timing of the transfer of goods or services related to the advanced payments is either at the discretion of the customer or expected to be within one year from the advanced receipt. As such, the Company does not adjust transaction prices for the time value of money. Incremental direct costs incurred related to the acquisition of a customer contract, such as sales commissions, are expensed as incurred since the expected performance period is one year or less.

 

The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling costs, including those costs incurred to move, package, and prepare the Company’s products for shipment and to move the products to a customer’s designated location, as a fulfillment activity, and the Company includes such costs in “Cost of sales” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as incurred. These costs are generally comprised of payments to third-party shippers. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.

Warranty Costs

(g) Warranty Costs

The Company typically provides standard warranty coverage on its systems for one year from the date of final acceptance by providing labor and parts necessary to repair the systems during the warranty period. The Company records the estimated warranty cost when revenue is recognized on the related system. Warranty cost is included in “Cost of sales” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated warranty cost is based on the Company’s historical experience with its systems and regional labor costs. The Company calculates the average service hours by region and parts expense per system utilizing actual service records to determine the estimated warranty charge. The Company updates its warranty estimates on a quarterly basis when the actual product performance or field expense differs from original estimates.

Research and Development Costs

(h) Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include charges for the development of new technology and the transition of existing technology into new products or services.

Advertising Expense

(i) Advertising Expense

The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred and totaled $0.4 million, $0.4 million, and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Accounting for Share-Based Compensation

(j) Accounting for Share-based Compensation

Share-based awards exchanged for employee services are accounted for under the fair value method. Accordingly, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award. The expense for awards is recognized over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). The Company has elected to treat awards with only service conditions and with graded vesting as one award. Consequently, the total compensation expense is recognized straight-line over the entire vesting period, so long as the compensation cost recognized at any date at least equals the portion of the grant date fair value of the award that is vested at that date. Additionally, the Company will make adjustments to compensation expense for forfeitures as they occur.

In addition to stock options, restricted share awards (“RSAs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with time-based vesting, the Company grants performance share units and awards (“PSUs” and “PSAs”) that have either performance or market conditions. Compensation cost for PSUs and PSAs with market conditions is recognized over the requisite service period regardless of the expected level of achievement. For all PSUs and PSAs, the number of shares issued to the employee at the conclusion of the service period may vary from the original target based upon the level of attainment of the performance or market conditions.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to compute the estimated fair value of option awards and purchase rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation to compute the estimated fair value of awards with market conditions. The Black-Scholes model and Monte Carlo simulation include assumptions regarding dividend yields, expected volatility, expected option term, and risk-free interest rates. See Note 13, “Stock Plans,” for additional information.

Income Taxes

(k) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will not be realized, which is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income.

Concentration of Credit Risk

(l) Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, investments, derivative financial instruments used in hedging activities, and accounts receivable. The Company invests in a variety of financial instruments and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution or commercial issuer. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material credit losses on its investments.

The Company maintains an allowance reserve for potentially uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company evaluates its allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where specific invoices are deemed to be uncollectible, the Company provides a specific allowance for bad debt against the amount due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. The Company also provides allowances based on its write-off history. Finally, the Company also considers its current expectations of future economic conditions, when estimating its allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $1.0 million at both December 31, 2024 and 2023.

To further mitigate the Company’s exposure to uncollectible accounts receivable, the Company may request certain customers provide a negotiable irrevocable letter of credit drawn on a reputable financial institution. These irrevocable letters of credit are typically issued to mature between zero and 90 days from the date the documentation requirements are met, typically when a system ships or upon receipt of final acceptance from the customer. The Company, at its discretion, may monetize these letters of credit on a non-recourse basis after they become negotiable but before maturity. The fees associated with the monetization are included in “Selling, general, and administrative” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and were immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

(m) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses reflected in the consolidated financial statements approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of debt for footnote disclosure purposes, including current maturities, if any, is estimated using recently quoted market prices of the instrument, or if not available, a discounted cash flow analysis based on the estimated current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of instruments.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-term Investments

(n) Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-term Investments

All financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase are considered cash equivalents. Such items may include liquid money market funds, certificate of deposit and time deposit accounts, U.S. treasuries, government agency securities, and corporate debt. Investments that are classified as cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents includes $81.0 million and $97.8 million of cash equivalents at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

A portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents is held by its subsidiaries throughout the world, frequently in each subsidiary’s respective functional currency, which is typically the U.S. dollar. Approximately 31% and 29% of cash and cash equivalents were maintained outside the United States at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Short-term investments consist of marketable debt securities, and are generally classified as available-for-sale for use in current operations, if required, and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, presented as a separate component of stockholders’ equity under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive income” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These securities can include U.S. treasuries, government agency securities, corporate debt, and commercial paper, all with maturities of greater than three months when purchased. All realized gains and losses and unrealized losses resulting from declines in fair value that are other than temporary are included in “Other operating expense (income), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The specific identification method is used to determine the realized gains and losses on investments.

Non-marketable equity securities are equity securities without readily observable market prices and are included in “Other assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Non-marketable securities are measured at cost, adjusted for changes in observable prices minus impairment. Changes in fair value and impairment charges are included in “Other income (expense), net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Inventories

(o) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Each quarter the Company assesses the valuation and recoverability of all inventories: materials (raw materials, spare parts, and service inventory); work-in-process; finished goods; and evaluation inventory at customer facilities. Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage requirement is written down to its estimated net realizable value if less than cost. The Company evaluates usage requirements by analyzing historical usage, anticipated demand, alternative uses of materials, and other qualitative factors. Unanticipated changes in demand for the Company’s products may require a write down of inventory, which would be reflected in Cost of Sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period the revision is made. Inventory acquired as part of a business combination is recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition.

Business Combinations

(p) Business Combinations

The Company allocates the fair value of the purchase consideration of the Company’s acquisitions to the tangible assets, intangible assets, and liabilities assumed, based on estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. Additionally, the Company estimates the fair value of contingent consideration included as part of the purchase price by assigning probabilities and discount factors to each of the various defined performance milestones, while using a Monte-Carlo simulation model to determine the most likely outcome for payments to be based on value of orders received.

Goodwill

(q) Goodwill

Goodwill is an asset representing the future economic benefits arising from assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment in the beginning of the fourth quarter of each year or more frequently if impairment indicators arise.

In testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount, and, if so, the Company then quantitatively compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, the Company then records an impairment loss equal to the difference, up to the carrying value of goodwill.

The Company determines the fair value of its reporting unit based on a reconciliation of the fair value of the reporting unit to the Company’s adjusted market capitalization. The adjusted market capitalization is calculated by multiplying the average share price of the Company’s common stock for the last ten trading days prior to the measurement date by the number of outstanding common shares and adding a control premium. The control premium is estimated using historical transactions in similar industries.

Long-lived Assets

(r) Long-lived Assets

Long-lived intangible assets consist of purchased technology, customer relationships, patents, trademarks and tradenames, software licenses, and backlog and are initially recorded at fair value. Long-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives utilizing a method reflecting the pattern in which the economic benefits are consumed or straight-lined if such pattern cannot be reliably determined.

Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation expense is calculated based on the estimated useful lives of the assets by using the straight-line method. Amortization of leasehold improvements is recognized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, a recoverability test is performed utilizing undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group compared to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, impairment is recognized to the extent the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models or, when available, quoted market values and third-party appraisals.

Leases

(s) Leases

The Company determines at contract inception if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, of an identified asset for which the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from its use and the right to direct its use. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, while lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The implicit discount rate in the Company’s leases generally cannot readily be determined, and therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at lease commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company has options to renew or terminate certain leases. These options are included in the determination of lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components in determining ROU assets or lease liabilities

for real estate leases. Additionally, the Company does not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases with original terms or renewals of one year or less.

Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

(t) Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company adopted ASU 2023-07: Segment Reporting (Topic 280) – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures on December 31, 2024. This standard primarily enhances disclosures about significant segment expenses. The standard requires interim and annual disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) and included within the reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss, requires interim disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit and loss and assets that are currently required annually, requires disclosure of the position and title of the CODM, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss and contains other disclosure requirements. Refer to Note 16 for further details.

(u) Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires public entities to disclose consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and for income taxes paid. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statements Expenses (Subtopic 220-40),” to improve income statement expenses disclosure. The standard requires more detailed information related to the types of expenses, including (among other items) the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included within each interim and annual income statement’s expense caption, as applicable. This authoritative guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively and will be effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company is evaluating other pronouncements recently issued but not yet adopted. The adoption of these pronouncements is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
