Latest 10-K, fiscal year ended Dec 31, 2025
Business Overview
- Core business: manufacturer of ion implantation and processing equipment for semiconductor chip fabrication plus aftermarket services
- No new products or segments introduced; emphasis on systems revenue of $571M in 2025, comprising major portion of total $839M revenue
- Strategic shift: reclassification of holdings, selling $199.5M of securities from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale, impacting short-term investments

- Noteworthy fact: sale and reclassification of investment securities in 2025 caused related adjustments to accumulated other comprehensive loss

- Cash from operations $118.3M; capex $11.3M; stock repurchase $121.1M; cash and equivalents $145.5M; forecasted 2026 capex ~$18M
