Previous wording

In the third quarter of 2023, the Company realigned its segments into three reportable segments discussed below, which align with the key elements of the advanced semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem. The current annual and succeeding annual periods will disclose the reportable segments with prior periods recast to reflect the change.

Current wording

In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company announced an internal reorganization, combining two complementary divisions into one and realigning its customer facing organization. Our business is now organized and operated in two operating segments as discussed below. The current annual and succeeding annual periods will disclose the reportable segments with prior periods recast to reflect the change. These segments share common business systems and processes, technology centers and technology roadmaps.

Previous wording

•The Materials Solutions segment, or MS, provides materials-based solutions, such as chemical mechanical planarization (“CMP”) slurries and pads, deposition materials, process chemistries and gases, formulated cleans, etchants and other specialty materials that enable our customers to achieve better device performance and faster time to yield, while providing for lower total cost of ownership.

▪The Materials Solutions segment, or MS, provides materials-based solutions, such as chemical vapor and atomic layer deposition materials, chemical mechanical planarization (“CMP”) slurries and pads, ion implantation specialty gases, formulated etch and clean materials, and other specialty materials that enable our customers to achieve better device performance and faster time to yield, while providing for lower total cost of ownership.

Previous wording

▪The Microcontamination Control segment, or MC, offers advanced solutions that improve customers’ yield, device reliability and cost by filtering and purifying critical liquid chemistries and gases used in semiconductor manufacturing processes and other high-technology industries.

Current wording

▪The Advanced Purity Solutions segment, or APS, offers filtration, purification and contamination-control solutions that improve customers’ yield, device reliability and cost by ensuring the purity of critical liquid chemistries and gases and the cleanliness of wafers and other substrates used throughout semiconductor manufacturing processes, the semiconductor ecosystem and other high-technology industries.

Previous wording

These segments share common business systems and processes, technology centers and technology roadmaps. With the complementary capabilities across these segments, we believe we are uniquely positioned to create new, co-optimized and increasingly integrated solutions for our customers, which should translate into improved device performance, lower cost of ownership and faster time to market. This capability has been further enhanced with the acquisition of CMC Materials. For example, we can now develop and provide complementary offerings solving customers’ complex manufacturing challenges across the deposition, CMP process and post-CMP modules with co-optimized products from each of our divisions, such as advanced deposition materials, CMP slurries, pads and post-CMP cleaning chemistries from our MS segment, CMP slurry filters from our MC segment, and CMP slurry high-purity packaging and fluid monitoring systems from our AMH segment.

Current wording

Net sales For 2024, net sales were $3,241.2 million, decreased by $282.7 million, or 8%, from 2023. An analysis of the factors underlying the decrease in net sales is presented in the following table:

Previous wording

The sales increase was attributable, in part, to a total of $537.8 million of sales of new products resulting from the acquisition of CMC Materials. This increase was partially offset by an absence of sales totaling $116.2 million resulting from the divestitures of QED and the Electronic Chemicals business as well as the termination of the Alliance Agreement. Total net sales also reflected unfavorable foreign currency translation effects of $33.2 million, mainly due to the significant weakening of the Japanese yen relative to the U.S. dollar, and decreased demand from customers in the semiconductor market, resulting in a decrease of $146.5 million compared to the year ago period ended December 31, 2022.

Current wording

As described in the table above, the decrease in net sales was primarily attributable to (i) the absence of sales totaling $434.2 million associated with divested businesses and (ii) a reduction of $23.4 million attributable to unfavorable foreign currency translation effects, primarily related to the weakening of the Japanese yen relative to the U.S. dollar compared to the year ago period ended December 31, 2023. These declines were partially offset by an increase of $174.9 million of sales due to increased semiconductor market demand compared to the year ago period ended December 31, 2023.

Previous wording

The decrease in the effective tax rate from 2022 to 2023 relates to a tax benefit of $17.4 million recorded in 2023 related to divestiture and impairment activity. Additionally, the tax rate was lower in 2023 due to changes to the jurisdictional income mix resulting from the acquisition of CMC Materials and the temporary changes in the U.S. tax regulations pertaining to foreign tax credits. The tax rate in 2022 was higher due to non-deductible acquisition related costs and a decrease in discrete benefits related to share-based compensation.

Current wording

The change in the effective tax rate from 2023 to 2024 primarily relates to the integration of the CMC acquisition and, discrete divestiture activity that occurred in 2023. Additionally, the tax rate was lower in 2023 due to changes in U.S. tax regulations pertaining to foreign tax credits.

Previous wording

See Note 10 of the consolidated financials for additional information. Debt obligations are classified based on their stated maturity date, regardless of their classification on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest projections on both variable and fixed rate long-term debt are based on interest rates effective as of December 31, 2024 and do not include $63.9 million for net unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs. On July 28, 2022, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement to hedge the variability in SOFR-based interest payments associated with $1.95 billion of its $2.495 billion Initial Term Loan Facility. The notional amount of the swap is $750.0 million at December 31, 2024 and is scheduled to decrease quarterly and will expire on December 30, 2025. The impact of the interest rate swap is not considered in the interest payments above.
