BEVERLY, Mass., February 17, 2026—Axcelis Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: ACLS) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.
President and CEO Russell Low commented, “Axcelis exited 2025 on a strong note with fourth quarter results that exceeded our outlook. We achieved another record quarter of CS&I revenue, reflecting the strength of our growing installed base and our strategic focus on driving upgrades and service contracts. We continue to execute with discipline, particularly as our customers navigate a mixed demand environment in Power and General Mature markets. At the same time, we are encouraged by the improving demand trends in our Memory market and expect this momentum to continue in 2026.”
“We continue working toward closing our pending merger with Veeco and remain confident in the compelling prospects and potential of the combined company. Together, we expect to be even better positioned to capitalize on the secular growth trends driven by AI, electrification, and next generation device architectures — and expect to leverage complementary strengths across our portfolios and teams to deliver greater value for all of our stakeholders”.
Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Jamie Coogan stated, “We closed the year with strong financial execution in the fourth quarter, highlighted by record CS&I performance and gross margins above expectations. These results reflect operational discipline, favorable mix, and the strength of our aftermarket strategy. For the full year, we delivered double digit CS&I growth, expanded gross margins, and generated more than $100 million of free cash flow, while continuing to invest in innovation and returning more than $120 million in capital to shareholders.”

Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains, and the conference call will contain, forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act safe harbor provisions. These statements, which include our expectations for spending in our industry and guidance for future financial performance, are based on management’s current expectations and should be viewed with caution. They are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, many of which are outside the control of the Company, including that customer decisions to place orders or our product shipments may not occur when we expect, that orders may not be converted to revenue in any particular quarter, or at all, whether demand will continue for the semiconductor equipment we produce or, if not, whether we can successfully meet changing market requirements, and whether we will be able to maintain continuity of business relationships with and purchases by major customers and, with respect to the potential transaction with Veeco, failure to obtain applicable regulatory approvals in a timely manner or otherwise; failure to satisfy other closing conditions to the proposed transaction or to complete the proposed transaction on anticipated terms and timing; negative effects of the announcement of the proposed transaction; risks that the businesses will not be integrated successfully or that the combined company will not realize expected benefits, cost savings, accretion, synergies and/or growth, or that such benefits may take longer to realize or may be more costly to achieve than expected; the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm business plans and operations; risks relating to unanticipated costs of integration; significant transaction and/or integration costs, or difficulties in connection with the proposed transaction and/or unknown or inestimable liabilities; restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact the ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; potential litigation associated with the proposed transaction; the potential impact of the announcement or consummation of the proposed transaction on the Company’s, Veeco’s or the combined company’s relationships with suppliers, customers, employees and regulators; and demand for the combined company’s products. Actual results may differ materially from those projected in such statements due to various factors, including but not limited to: economic, political and social conditions in the countries in which the Company and Veeco, their respective customers and suppliers operate; disruption to the Company’s and Veeco’s respective manufacturing facilities or other operations, or the operations of Company’s and Veeco’s respective customers and suppliers, due to natural catastrophic events, health epidemics or terrorism; ongoing changes in the technology industry, and the semiconductor industry in particular, including future growth rates, pricing trends in end-markets, or changes in customer capital spending patterns; the Company’s, Veeco’s and the combined company’s ability to timely develop new technologies and products that successfully anticipate or address changes in the semiconductor industry; the Company’s, Veeco’s and the combined company’s ability to maintain their respective technology advantage and protect their respective proprietary rights; the Company’s, Veeco’s and the combined company’s ability to compete with new products introduced by their respective competitors; the Company’s, Veeco’s and the combined company’s ability or the ability of their respective customers to obtain U.S. export control licenses for the sale of certain products or provision of certain services to customers in China. Increased competitive pressure on sales and pricing, increases in material and other production costs that cannot be recouped in product pricing and instability caused by changing global economic, political or financial conditions, including with respect to the imposition of tariffs on our products or components of our products, could also cause actual results to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements. These risks and other risk factors relating to Axcelis are described more fully in the most recent Form 10-K filed by Axcelis and in other documents filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Notes on Our Non-GAAPFinancial Information
Management uses non-GAAP gross profit, gross margin, operating income, operating margin, income tax provision, net income, diluted earnings per share, and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance and for planning purposes. Axcelis believes these measures enhance an overall understanding of its performance and investors’ ability to review the Company’s business from the same perspective as the Company’s management.
There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and may exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Totals presented may not sum and percentages may not recalculate using figures presented due to rounding.
