Current report
Risks related to artificial intelligence technologies, including generative AI, could adversely affect our products, operations, intellectual property, and reputation.
Current report
As models improve, we expect to be increasingly incorporating artificial intelligence (“AI”), including machine learning and generative AI models, into our electronic test and process control platforms, as well as into our internal engineering, customer support, and business operations tools. These technologies are complex and rapidly evolving, and may not perform as intended across all devices, and use cases, which could lead to inaccurate test results, sub‑optimal process recommendations, yield loss, product failures at our customers, and associated warranty, indemnity, or other claims.
Current report
Our use of AI depends on large volumes of manufacturing, design, and test data, much of which is proprietary to us or our customers. If our own systems or third‑party AI tools are misconfigured, compromised, or improperly used, AI inputs or outputs could inadvertently expose sensitive product roadmaps, process recipes, customer confidential information, or our trade secrets, increasing the risk of intellectual property theft, competitive harm, or contractual liability. Malicious actors may also use AI to develop more sophisticated cyberattacks, including targeted phishing, impersonation, or model‑extraction attacks against our AI‑enabled products and services, which could result in unauthorized access to our or our customers’ environments, disruptions to our solutions, or data loss.
Current report
We rely in part on third‑party AI infrastructure, models, and data services. Defects, outages, policy changes, or security incidents at these third parties, or their failure to comply with emerging AI, data protection, export control, or industry‑specific regulations, could disrupt our offerings, limit our ability to deploy or enhance AI features, or subject us and our customers to additional compliance costs, investigations, or penalties. Governments in the United States and other jurisdictions are adopting, or may adopt, new frameworks specific to AI transparency, safety, security, and accountability; these rules may impose constraints on training data, model usage, explainability, or cross‑border data transfers that increase our development costs, delay product introductions, or limit certain AI‑enabled capabilities.
Current report
AI development also intensifies competition for highly skilled technical personnel with expertise in data science, machine learning, and AI safety. If we are unable to attract, train, and retain such personnel, we may be slower than competitors in incorporating AI into our test and process technologies, which could reduce the competitiveness of our solutions. In addition, as customers and regulators scrutinize the accuracy, fairness, and transparency of AI‑driven recommendations used in semiconductor manufacturing and reliability screening, any perceived or actual bias, errors, or lack of explainability in our AI features could damage our reputation, lead to reduced adoption of our AI‑enabled products, and expose us to product, contractual, or regulatory claims.
Current report
•The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities;
Current report
•Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive, transfer and use our cash effectively;
Current report
•Increased uncertainties related to the enforcement of intellectual property rights including any intellectual property rights that we may license to a Chinese (or other emerging jurisdiction) entity, including any joint ventures we may form;
Current report
•Increased uncertainties relating to Chinese regulation of exports of products and technology to and from China;
Current report
•Increased and rapidly changing export and related trade regulations and restrictions imposed by U.S. and Chinese legislation, executive actions and regulations;
Current report
•Difficulty of travel to and from China (and to and from U.S.) arising from or related to the COVID-19 pandemic or any future pandemic;
Current report
•The Chinese government may favor its local businesses and make it more difficult for foreign businesses to operate in China on an equal footing, or create generally difficult conditions for foreign headquartered businesses to operate;
Current report
•More restrictive rules on foreign investment could adversely affect our ability to expand our operations in China; and

Current report
U.S. tariff policies and potential global retaliatory countermeasures could increase our cost, disrupt our supply chain or affect customer purchasing activities, any of which could negatively impact our results of operations.
Current report
Changes in U.S. and foreign trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs and other trade barriers, could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. For example, the continued tariff negotiations have increased our material costs and may force us to seek alternative suppliers or navigate through a period of reduced orders and revenues and/or unprofitability if we are unable to pass cost increases onto customers. Approximately 57% of our sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, were shipped to customers outside of the United States and thus potentially exposed to tariffs. Retaliatory tariffs by China and other countries could further disrupt our supply chain, reduce demand for our products, or result in lost sales. While certain tariffs have subsequently been suspended, modified or temporarily reduced, we cannot predict the results of the U.S. government’s trade negotiations or the outcome of ongoing legal challenges to specific tariff policies. The unpredictable nature of these trade policies and the potential for further escalation may increase uncertainty and volatility in our industry, which could negatively impact our financial performance.

A key element of our growth strategy is to acquire businesses, technologies or products that are complementary to our current product offerings. We seek to make acquisitions that will further expand our product lines as well as strengthen our positions in served markets and provide expansion into new markets. We may not be able to execute our acquisition strategy and our future growth may be limited if:

In connection with our acquisition of Acculogic we have recorded a contingent consideration liability that represents the fair value of additional payments we may make to the seller of up to an additional CAD $5.0 million in the five-year period from 2022 through 2026. The additional payments will be based on a percentage of net invoices for which payments have been received on systems sold to EV battery customers exceeding CAD $2.5 million per year in each of the five years. The maximum payment is capped at CAD $5.0 million, which equates to approximately USD $3.5 million at December 31, 2024. There were no payments due for the years ended December 31, 2023 or 2022, while an immaterial amount is due for 2024 and is recorded as a component of other current liabilities. The fair value of this contingent consideration liability involves assessing the total amount of revenue we expect from sales to EV or battery customers during the applicable time periods as well as when we expect to receive payment for the related net invoices. At December 31, 2024, the total contingent consideration liability on our balance sheet was USD $0.9 million which was its estimated fair value at that date. Any future adjustments to the estimated fair value of the contingent liability will be recorded in our results of operations for the period in which the adjustment occurs.

We paid the contractually due amount for 2024 during the first quarter of 2025 and expect to make the payment for the amount due for 2025 in the first quarter of 2026. The fair value of this contingent consideration liability involves assessing the total amount of revenue we expect from sales to EV or battery customers during the applicable time periods as well as when we expect to receive payment for the related net invoices. At December 31, 2025, the total contingent consideration liability on our Consolidated Balance Sheet was USD $0.6 million which was its estimated fair value at that date. Any future adjustments to the estimated fair value of the contingent liability will be recorded in our results of operations for the period in which the adjustment occurs.
Previous wording
As we implement our business strategy as intended, we have and may in the future experience rapid growth and development in a relatively short period of time. The management of this growth will require, among other things, continued development of our financial and management controls and management information systems, stringent control of costs, the ability to attract and retain qualified management personnel and the training of new personnel. Failure to successfully manage our possible growth and development could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We sell certain of our products in markets other than the semi market, including the automotive, defense/aerospace, industrial, life sciences and security markets. During 2024 and 2023, our sales to markets other than the semi market were $82.0 million and $57.6 million, respectively, and represented 63% and 47% of our consolidated revenue, respectively. Our goal is to increase our sales to markets other than the semi market; however, in most cases, the expansion of our product sales into these new markets has occurred in the last several years, and we may experience difficulty in expanding our sales efforts further into these markets. These difficulties could include hiring sales and marketing staff with sufficient experience selling into these new markets and our ability to continue to develop products which meet the needs of customers in these markets and which are not currently offered by our competitors. In addition, due to the highly specialized nature of certain of our product offerings in these markets, we do not expect broad market penetration in many of these markets. If we are unable to expand these sales, our revenue and results of operations will remain substantially dependent upon the cycles of the semi market.

During 2022, as global supply chain constraints became more pronounced, we experienced price increases and lack of availability from several of our normal suppliers for the materials needed to produce our products in a timely manner and/or with the level of margins we typically expect to achieve. While the global supply chain seems to have returned to a more normalized state as of the end of 2024, ongoing uncertainty from geopolitical events and the global trade environment, including changes in the United States’ or international trade policy, tariffs, export controls, quotas, embargoes, or sanctions may trigger additional retaliatory actions by affected countries resulting in “trade wars” and further increased costs for goods and materials transported globally, which may negatively impact our customers, revenues and earnings. Furthermore, certain components of our products may continue to be in short supply from time to time because of high demand or the inability of some vendors to consistently meet our quality or delivery requirements. A significant portion of our material purchases require some custom work, and there are not always multiple suppliers capable of performing such custom work on a timely or cost-effective basis. If any of our suppliers were to cancel commitments or fail to meet quality or delivery requirements needed to satisfy customer orders for our products, we could lose time-sensitive customer orders, have reduced revenues and earnings, experience reputational harm and be subject to contractual penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, we may not be able to raise our prices to our customers in an amount or timeframe sufficient to offset the increases in price we are experiencing from our suppliers. This could result in a reduction in our earnings in future periods.

We rely on various information technology networks and systems, some of which are managed by third parties, to process, transmit and store electronic information, including confidential data, and to carry out and support a variety of business activities, including manufacturing, research and development, supply chain management, sales and accounting. A failure in, or a breach of, our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our suppliers and other service providers, including as a result of cyberattacks, could disrupt our business, result in the disclosure or misuse of proprietary or confidential information, result in litigation, damage our reputation, cause losses and significantly increase our costs. Although we have been and continue to be the target of security breaches, we have not experienced material losses to date related to such incidents. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that we will not suffer such losses in the future. In addition, domestic and international regulatory agencies have implemented, and are continuing to implement, various reporting and remediation requirements that companies must comply with upon learning of a breach. While we have insurance that may protect us from incurring some of these costs, there is no assurance that such insurance coverage is adequate to cover all costs and damages incurred in connection with a cyberattack.

As further explained in “Item 9A. Controls and Procedures,” in prior periods, our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which have been remediated as of December 31, 2024. We cannot be certain that other material weaknesses will not occur in the future. If material weaknesses are identified in the future, or if we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in a timely manner, our reported financial results could be materially misstated and we could be subject to investigations or sanctions by regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources, and the value of our common stock could decline.

Our credit facility with M&T Bank (“M&T”) contains covenants requiring us to, among other things, provide financial and other information and to provide notice upon the occurrence of certain events affecting us or our business. These covenants also place restrictions on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, and enter into certain transactions, including selling assets, engaging in mergers or acquisitions, or engaging in transactions with affiliates. If we fail to satisfy one or more of the covenants under our credit facility, we would be in default thereunder and may be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources or otherwise not be able to draw down against our facility. Under such circumstances, we may have difficulty in locating another lender that would be willing to extend credit to us, and other sources of capital may not be available to us on reasonable terms or at all.

Previous wording
At June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all of the covenants included in our credit facility, except for the fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant which was 1.16 to 1.0 for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, for which we received a one-time waiver from M&T. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all of the covenants included in our credit facility. See “Part II; Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; Liquidity and Capital Resources; Credit Facility” and “Part II; Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data; Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements; Note (10) Debt” in this Report for a discussion of the material terms of our credit facility.
Current wording
On August 5, 2025, we executed the Sixth Amendment to the Loan Agreement, which formally waives the fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant for periods ending June 30, 2025 through and including March 31, 2026. During the period of this waiver we are required to request consent from M&T if we wish to utilize our revolving facility and we formally pledged a portion of our cash holdings equal to our total open debt with M&T. At December 31, 2025, we had total debt of $3.8 million with M&T and were in compliance with all other covenants included in the credit facility including the debt covenants of the Loan Agreement. See “Part II; Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; Liquidity and Capital Resources; Credit Facility” and “Part II; Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data; Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements; Note (10) Debt” in this Report for a discussion of the material terms of our credit facility.

We hold our cash and cash equivalents that we use to meet our working capital needs in deposit accounts at multiple financial institutions. The balance held in these accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), standard deposit insurance limit or similar government guarantee schemes. If a financial institution in which we hold such funds fails or is subject to significant adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets, we could be subject to a risk of loss of all or a portion of such uninsured funds or be subject to a delay in accessing all or a portion of such uninsured funds. Any such loss or lack of access to these funds could adversely impact our short-term liquidity and ability to meet our obligations.
Current wording

For example, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank, and on March 12, 2023, Signature Bank, were closed by state regulators and the FDIC was appointed receiver for each bank. The FDIC created successor bridge banks and all deposits of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank were transferred to the bridge banks under a systemic risk exception approved by the United States Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC. If financial institutions in which we hold funds for working capital were to fail, we cannot provide any assurances that such governmental agencies would take action to protect our uninsured deposits in a similar manner.

We generate a large portion of our sales from a small number of customers. If we were to lose one or more of our large customers, our operating results could suffer dramatically.
Current wording
We generate a large portion of our sales from a small number of customers. If we were to lose one or more of our large customers, our operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
Previous wording
During the year ended December 31, 2024, one customer accounted for 13% of our consolidated revenue. This revenue was primarily generated by our Electronic Test segment. During the year ended December 31, 2023, this same customer accounted for 13% of our consolidated revenue. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 45% and 42% of our consolidated revenue, respectively. The loss of any one or more of our largest customers, or a reduction in orders by a major customer could materially reduce our net revenues or otherwise materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Current wording
During the year ended December 31, 2025, no customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2024, one customer accounted for 13% of our consolidated revenue. This revenue was primarily generated by our Electronic Test segment. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 36% and 45% of our consolidated revenue, respectively. The loss of any one or more of our largest customers, or a reduction in orders by a major customer could materially reduce our net revenues or otherwise materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Previous wording
In late February 2022, Russia initiated significant military action against Ukraine. In response, the U.S. and certain other countries imposed significant sanctions and trade actions against Russia. Recently, the U.S. added sanctions to Belarus. The U.S. and certain other countries could impose further sanctions, trade restrictions and other retaliatory actions should the conflict continue or worsen. It is not possible to predict the broader consequences of the conflict, including related geopolitical tensions, and the measures and retaliatory actions taken by the U.S. and other countries in respect thereof, as well as any counter measures or retaliatory actions by Russia or its allies in response. The continuing conflict has caused regional instability and could cause geopolitical shifts and could materially adversely affect global trade, currency exchange rates, regional economies and the global economy, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Previous wording
The conflict and actions taken in response to the conflict could increase our costs or disrupt our supply chain for certain unique materials. Specifically, Acculogic purchases certain parts from a key sole-source supplier in Belarus, which is bordered by Russia to the east and northeast and Ukraine to the south. In August 2024, the United States, Canada and the European Union added additional sanctions on certain companies based in Belarus, including this key sole-source supplier. We are complying with these sanctions and have not received materials from this supplier since the restrictions were announced. As a result, we have a limited supply of these parts. We are currently in the process of qualifying an alternate supplier for these parts. In addition, in December 2024, we submitted a request to the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) to allow us a temporary license to purchase a limited quantity of these parts from this supplier. This application is currently pending OFAC review. There can be no assurance that we will be granted a license by OFAC in a timely matter or at all, that if granted a license by OFAC that such supplier in Belarus will be willing or able to provide these parts on reasonable commercial terms or at all, or that we will be able to identify and qualify an alternative supplier for these parts in a timely matter or at all. If we cannot source this material from alternate suppliers for similar costs, our revenue and earnings could be adversely affected.
Current wording
The conflict and actions taken in response to the conflict could increase our costs or disrupt our supply chain for certain unique materials. Specifically, Acculogic purchases certain parts from a key sole-source supplier in Belarus, which is bordered by Russia to the east and northeast and Ukraine to the south. In August 2024, the U.S., Canada and the European Union added additional sanctions which included adding this supplier to the list of prohibited entities in Belarus. We are complying with these sanctions and have not received materials from this supplier since the issuance of Executive Order 14038. We have qualified a new supplier for these materials and have a supply of these materials on hand to support new production. Our first system incorporating these new materials was shipped to one of our customers at the end of the second quarter of 2025.
Previous wording
We have a sole source supplier of components in Israel and the continuing Hamas-Israel conflict could disrupt our supply chain or cause other adverse effects on our revenue and earnings.
Current wording
We have a sole source supplier of components in Israel and the continuing conflicts in the Middle East could disrupt our supply chain or cause other adverse effects on our revenue and earnings.
Previous wording
In early October 2023, Hamas attacked Israel and Israel formally declared war in response to the attack. While some efforts have been made towards a cessation of hostilities, the conflict is ongoing, and it is unclear when it might end. The continuing conflict is likely to cause regional instability and could materially adversely affect global trade, regional economies and the global economy, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Our subsidiary, Ambrell® has a sole source supplier of capacitors used in certain of our induction heating products that is located in Israel. This supplier is the sole source supplier of capacitors for numerous induction companies, and currently there are no viable alternatives available. There can be no assurance that the situation will not worsen, which could impact our ability to assemble and ship certain of our induction heating products which could have a material impact on our results of operations in future periods.
Current wording
In early October 2023, Hamas attacked Israel and Israel formally declared war in response to the attack. Although a cease-fire was declared in October 2025, hostilities continue. On February 28, 2026, the U.S. and Israel launched a coordinated military operation against Iran, and Iran has responded with attacks affecting certain Persian Gulf states as well as Israel. It is unclear when these continuing conflicts will end and these conflicts are likely to cause regional instability that could materially adversely affect global trade, regional economies and the global economy, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Ambrell® has a sole source supplier of capacitors used in certain of our induction heating products that is located in Israel. This supplier is the sole source supplier of capacitors for numerous induction companies, and currently there are no viable alternatives available. We have been in contact with our supplier since the conflict with Iran began and have been advised that their operations are currently uninterrupted. Our supplier has indicated that they have large amount of stock available at more than one facility in Israel, so they believe they have redundancies in place that will help ensure that the supply chain is uninterrupted. We continue to monitor this situation and are staying in close contact with this supplier. There can be no assurance that the situation will not worsen, which could impact our ability to assemble and ship certain of our induction heating products which could have a material impact on our results of operations in future periods.
