Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ACM Research, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated March 2, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Revenue Recognition
Description of the MatterAs described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes revenue from tools at a point in time, when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation. For shipments made to a customer that has not previously accepted a specific type of tool (“first tools”), revenues are recognized when the tools are accepted by the customer. For shipments made to a customer that have previously accepted a specific type of tool (“repeat shipments”), revenues are recognized upon shipment or delivery because the Company can objectively demonstrate that the tools meet all the required customer specifications.
Auditing the Company’s revenue recognition was challenging due to the substantial effort required to identify repeat shipments, and to evaluate the sufficiency of the audit evidence obtained.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our AuditWe obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s revenue process. For example, we tested the control over the Company’s analysis to determine whether the repeat shipments identified have been previously accepted by the same customer.
To test the Company’s identification of repeat shipments, we performed audit procedures that included, among others, direct inquiries with personnel from the finance, sales and engineering departments to understand the Company’s identification process for repeat shipments. We applied judgment to determine the nature and extent of audit procedures, and tested all sales transactions classified as repeat shipments during the year. To evaluate the accuracy of the Company’s identification of repeat shipments, we inspected customer acceptance confirmations for similar tools previously sold to the same customer and cross compared the respective contracts with those of the repeat shipments. We evaluated the sufficiency of the audit evidence gathered based on the results of the procedures performed over repeat shipments, including an assessment of the appropriateness of the nature and extent of audit effort.
