Rewritten

In addition to the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K [removed: (“2025] [added: (“2026] Form 10-K”), the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating us and our business because [removed: such] [added: the occurrence of any of these] factors [removed: may significantly impact] [added: could materially and adversely affect] our business, [removed: operating results, and] [added: results of operations,] financial [removed: condition.][added: condition, and price of our Common Stock, and they could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in any forward-looking statements.]

Rewritten

If new products or existing products have reliability, quality, design, or safety problems, our performance may be impacted by reduced orders, higher manufacturing costs, delays in acceptance of and payment for new products, [removed: and] additional service and warranty [removed: expenses.][added: expenses, and loss of market share.]

Rewritten

[removed: We may be] [added: If we are] unable to develop and manufacture products successfully, or [added: the] products that we introduce [removed: may] fail in the [removed: marketplace.][added: marketplace, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.]

Rewritten

In addition, the emergence of “big data” and new tools such as machine learning and [removed: artificial intelligence (“AI”)] [added: AI] that capitalize on the availability of large data sets is leading semiconductor manufacturers and equipment manufacturers to pursue new products and approaches that exploit those tools to advance technology development.

Rewritten

Our failure to commercialize new products in a timely manner could result in loss of market share, unanticipated costs, and inventory obsolescence, which would adversely affect our [added: business, results of operations and] financial [removed: results.][added: condition.]

Rewritten

Future technologies, processes, or product [removed: developments] [added: developments, including as a result of adoption of AI,] may render our current product offerings obsolete, leaving us with non-competitive products, obsolete inventory, or both.

Rewritten

Moreover, customers may adopt new technologies or processes to address the complex challenges associated with next-generation [removed: devices.][added: devices, or may adopt new technologies, including those based upon AI, that reduce their reliance on us for process development.]

Rewritten

This shift [removed: may result in a reduction in] [added: could reduce] the size of our addressable [removed: markets or could] [added: markets,] increase the relative size of markets in which we either do not compete or have relatively low market [removed: share.][added: share, or reduce our competitiveness within the markets in which we do compete.]

Rewritten

Accordingly, competition may intensify, and we may be unable to continue to compete successfully in our markets, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, [removed: operating results,] [added: results of operations, and] financial [removed: condition, and/or cash flows.][added: condition.]

Rewritten

With increased consolidation efforts in our industry, as well as the emergence and strengthening of new, regional [removed: competitors,] [added: competitors and the impact of AI,] we may face increasing competitive pressures.

Rewritten

Other companies continue to develop systems and/or acquire businesses and products that are competitive to ours and may introduce new products and product capabilities that may affect our ability to sell and support our existing [added: or new] products.

Rewritten

We face a greater risk if our competitors enter into strategic relationships with leading semiconductor manufacturers covering products [added: addressing applications] similar to those we sell or may [removed: develop,] [added: develop products for,] as this could adversely affect our ability to sell products to those [removed: manufacturers.][added: manufacturers for those applications.]

Rewritten

Certain of our competitors, including those that are created and financially backed by foreign governments, have substantially greater financial resources and more extensive engineering, manufacturing, marketing, and customer service and support resources than we do and therefore have the potential to offer customers a more comprehensive array of products and/or product [removed: capabilities and] [added: capabilities, which enables them] to [removed: therefore] achieve additional relative success in the semiconductor equipment industry.

Rewritten

Variability in our customers’ business plans may lead to changes in demand for our equipment and services, which could negatively impact our [removed: results.][added: results of operations and cash flows.]

Rewritten

If we do not adequately meet these challenges during periods of increasing or declining demand, our [removed: gross margins] [added: results of operations] and [removed: earnings] [added: financial condition] may be negatively impacted.

Rewritten

We [removed: continuously reassess] [added: regularly assess] our strategic resource allocation choices in response to the changing business environment.

Rewritten

If we do not adequately adapt to the changing business environment, we may lack the infrastructure and resources to scale up our business to meet customer expectations and compete successfully during a period of growth, [added: which could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition, and/or our market share,] or we may expand our capacity and resources too rapidly and/or beyond what is appropriate for the actual demand environment, [removed: resulting] [added: which could result] in excess fixed [removed: costs.][added: costs and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.]

Rewritten

[removed: Especially during] [added: During] transitional periods, [added: as is the case with the rapid adoption of AI technologies,] resource allocation decisions can have a significant impact on our future performance, particularly if we have not accurately anticipated industry changes.

Rewritten

[removed: With the consolidation of customers within the industry, the semiconductor] capital equipment market [added: has in the past experienced and] may [added: in the future] experience rapid changes in demand driven both by changes in the market generally and the plans and requirements of particular customers.

Rewritten

The economic, regulatory, political, and business conditions occurring nationally, globally, or in any of our key sales regions, which are often unpredictable, have historically impacted [added: and may in the future impact] customer demand for our products and services and normal commercial relationships with our customers, suppliers, and creditors.

Rewritten

Fluctuating levels of investment by semiconductor manufacturers may materially affect our aggregate shipments, revenues, [removed: operating results,] [added: results of operations,] and [removed: earnings.][added: cash flows.]

Rewritten

Where appropriate, we [removed: will] [added: endeavor to] attempt to respond to these fluctuations with cost management programs aimed at aligning our expenditures with anticipated revenue streams, which sometimes result in restructuring charges.

Rewritten

Even during periods of reduced revenues, we must continue to invest in R&D and maintain extensive ongoing worldwide customer service and support capabilities to remain competitive, which may [removed: temporarily] harm our profitability and other financial results.

Rewritten

Sales to a limited number of large customers constitute a significant portion of our overall shipments, revenue, cash [removed: flows] [added: flows,] and profitability.

Rewritten

As a result, the actions of even one customer may subject us to variability in those areas [removed: that] is difficult to predict.

Rewritten

In addition, large customers may be able to negotiate requirements that result in decreased pricing, increased costs, and/or lower margins for [removed: us] [added: us,] and limitations on our ability to share technology with others.

Rewritten

Similarly, significant portions of our credit risk may, at any given time, be concentrated among a limited number of customers so that the failure of even one of these key customers to pay its obligations to us could significantly impact our [added: results of operations, and] financial [removed: results.][added: condition.]

Rewritten

[removed: Even if they select our] equipment, [removed: the institutions and the customers that follow their lead could impose conditions on acceptance of that equipment,] such as adherence to standards and requirements or limitations on how we license our proprietary rights, that increase our costs or require us to take on greater risk.

Rewritten

These actions could adversely impact our market [removed: share] [added: share, results of operations,] and financial [removed: results.][added: condition.]

Rewritten

Our Revenues and [removed: Operating] Results [added: of Operations] Are Variable

Rewritten

Our revenues and [removed: operating] results [added: of operations] may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter or year to year due to a number of factors, not all of which are in our control.

Rewritten

Because our operating expenses are based in part on anticipated future revenues, and a certain amount of those expenses are relatively fixed, a change in the timing of recognition of revenue and/or the level of gross profit from a small number of transactions can unfavorably affect [removed: operating] results [added: of operations] in a particular quarter or year.

Rewritten

Factors that may cause our [removed: financial] results [added: of operations] to fluctuate [removed: unpredictably] include, but are not limited to:

Rewritten

- legal, tax, accounting, or regulatory changes (including, but not limited to, changes in import/export regulations and tariffs, such as regulations imposed by the U.S. government restricting exports to [removed: China,] [added: China] or [added: regulations imposed by other countries restricting the export of certain materials or the re-export of products containing such materials, or] potential additional tariffs on imports, and tariffs imposed by other countries) or changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing requirements;

Rewritten

- [removed: transportation, communication, demand, information technology,] [added: transportation] or supply disruptions based on factors outside our control, such as strikes, [removed: acts of God,] [added: force majeure events,] wars, terrorist activities, international conflict, widespread outbreak of illness, or natural or man-made disasters (including disasters resulting from climate change), including earthquakes, wildfires, hurricanes, flooding, and heat [removed: waves;][added: waves.]

Rewritten

- management of supply chain risks; [added: and]

Rewritten

In addition, we make use of Software-as-a-Service [removed: (SaaS)] [added: (“SaaS”)] products for certain important business functions that are provided by third parties and hosted on their own networks and servers, or third-party networks and servers, all of which rely on networks, email and/or the Internet for their function.

Rewritten

The technology, data, intellectual property and other sensitive information we seek to [removed: protect are subject to loss, release, misappropriation or misuse,] [added: protect,] and the information systems [removed: containing] [added: used to store, process,] or [removed: transmitting] [added: transmit] such [removed: technology, data, intellectual property and other sensitive information] [added: information,] are subject to [added: loss, unauthorized access, unauthorized release, misappropriation, misuse,] disruption, [removed: breach] [added: breach, degradation,] or failure, [removed: in each case as a result of various possible causes,] any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business or operations.

Rewritten

Such [removed: causes] [added: events] may [removed: include] [added: result from various possible causes, including] mistakes or unauthorized actions by our [removed: employees or] [added: employees,] contractors, [removed: phishing schemes and] [added: or] other [removed: third-party attacks, and degradation] [added: third parties,] or [removed: loss] [added: cyberattacks or other malicious activities by third parties, including industrial, corporate, or other espionage, criminal hackers, or state-sponsored intrusions, by methods that include exploitation] of [removed: service] [added: known] or [removed: access to data due to] [added: unknown software or hardware vulnerabilities,] viruses, malware, [added: ransomware, social engineering (such as phishing schemes), credential harvesting,] denial of service attacks, destructive or inadequate code, [added: software or hardware failure,] power failures, or physical damage to computers, hard drives, communication lines, or networking equipment, in each case with respect to us or the third-party product and service providers upon which we rely.

Rewritten

[removed: In addition, to] [added: To] the extent AI capabilities improve and are increasingly adopted, they may be used to [removed: identify] [added: introduce, identify, or exploit] vulnerabilities and to implement increasingly sophisticated cybersecurity [removed: attacks.][added: attacks and could materially and adversely impact our business or operations.]

New in FY2026

Some of the factors, events, and contingencies discussed below may have occurred in the past, but the disclosures below are not representations as to whether or not the factors, events, or contingencies have occurred in the past and instead reflect our beliefs and opinions as to the factors, events, or contingencies that could materially and adversely affect us in the future.

New in FY2026

The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face.

New in FY2026

Our operations could also be affected by factors, events, or uncertainties that are not presently known to us or that we currently do not consider to present a material risk to us and our business.

New in FY2026

Therefore, the following discussion of risk factors should not be considered a complete statement of all the potential risks or uncertainties that we face.

New in FY2026

For example, the growth of AI technologies and related infrastructure has been and is expected to continue to be a significant driver of capital equipment expenditures by semiconductor manufacturers across both the memory and non-memory market segments and requires us to respond (sometimes rapidly) to changes in demand for our products and services, including by expanding our equipment manufacturing capabilities and hiring additional personnel.

New in FY2026

If we are unable to effectively scale our business to meet our customers’ requirements in response to AI-driven demand, we may lose market share, and our business, reputation, results of operations, and financial condition could be harmed.

New in FY2026

For example, the growth of AI technologies and related infrastructure has been and is expected to continue to be a significant driver of capital equipment expenditures of semiconductor manufacturers across both the memory and non-memory market segments we serve.

New in FY2026

However, customer decisions regarding the amount and timing of capital expenditures and the demand for our products and services could change rapidly and be impacted by factors outside of our control.

New in FY2026

These factors may include, without limitation: changes in actual or anticipated AI-driven demand for AI-related infrastructure or compute power to support AI models, tools, and other applications, including due to slower-than-anticipated adoption of AI technologies, increases in compute efficiency, or oversupply of AI-related infrastructure compute power; advances in fabrication processes, technology inflections or changes in technology architectures; new and emerging technologies or market drivers; actual or anticipated production capacity, utilization, and volumes of semiconductor manufacturers relative to demand for semiconductor devices; changes in end-user demand or behavior; the timing of or constraints on increases to AI-related infrastructure or semiconductor manufacturing capacity; the availability and cost of capital, including increases in interest rates or tightening in global capital markets; the availability and amount of government subsidies and incentives; the regulation of AI or related infrastructure technologies by government or other regulatory agencies; and geopolitical or macroeconomic instability, including wars, terrorism, political unrest, public health emergencies, inflation, recessionary conditions, trade restrictions, export controls, boycotts, and other business disruptions.

New in FY2026

- changes in industry trends or demand drivers for semiconductor chips and semiconductor equipment, including changes in the level of investment in AI and related infrastructure;

New in FY2026

- the failure of our suppliers or outsource providers to perform their obligations in a manner consistent with our expectations or to meet increases in demand for their products or services, including due to limited production capacity or constrained access to raw materials or components (such as rare earth elements), which could result in delays, higher costs, or an inability to fulfill orders;

New in FY2026

- the impact of manufacturing difficulties or constraints on expanding manufacturing capacity by us or our customers or suppliers;

New in FY2026

We or our third-party product and service providers may not be able to anticipate, identify, or implement effective preventive measures against cyberattacks or data security incidents and, even if timely identified, we or our third-party product and service providers may not be able to remediate such attacks or incidents in a timely and effective manner, or to mitigate or avoid adverse impacts resulting from any such attacks or incidents.

New in FY2026

These threats continue to evolve and may include the use of tools and techniques that change frequently or may be disguised or difficult to detect, or designed to circumvent security controls, evade detection, or remove forensic evidence, or remain dormant until a triggering event, or that may continue undetected for an extended period of time, which may hinder our or our third-party product and service providers’ ability to identify, investigate, and remediate attacks or incidents in a timely and effective manner, or to mitigate or avoid adverse impacts resulting from any such attacks or incidents.

New in FY2026

In addition, the development and deployment of AI models, tools, and other applications expose us, our customers, suppliers, and other third-party providers to increased and novel risks and vulnerabilities, including prompt injection, hallucinations, errors, and other issues related to AI agents, as well as the risk of compromise of valuable intellectual property.

New in FY2026

For example, the autonomous nature of agentic AI increases the risk that agents learn to circumvent security controls, and certain generative AI systems and large language models may, in order to satisfy user prompts, access or retrieve data using the credentials, permissions, or access rights of the user or connected systems, which may increase the risk of unauthorized access, data leakage, or improper use of sensitive or proprietary information.

New in FY2026

In addition, even if we or our third-party product and service providers are able to develop patches or other mitigations to address newly identified vulnerabilities, the pace at which AI enables the discovery and exploitation of such vulnerabilities may exceed our or our third-party product and service providers’ ability to implement such patches and mitigations quickly enough to prevent the exploitation of such vulnerabilities.

New in FY2026

We Use Artificial Intelligence in Our Business, and Challenges with Properly Managing Its Use Could Result in Reputational Harm, Competitive Harm, and Legal Liability, and Materially and Adversely Affect Our Results of Operations.

New in FY2026

We are increasingly using AI tools as part of our business, including internally developed machine learning tools and large language models provided by third parties.

New in FY2026

For example, we use or are seeking to use AI tools to enhance research and development, manufacturing, installation, and servicing of our products, services delivery, supply chain management, sales and marketing, and compliance activities.

New in FY2026

We are also pursuing additional opportunities to incorporate AI tools, including agentic AI, into our business, including our products and services, and we expect this trend to continue.

New in FY2026

There are significant risks involved in developing and deploying AI, and there can be no assurance that our usage of AI will enhance our business, products or services, including our productivity, operational efficiency, effectiveness, or profitability.

New in FY2026

For example, if the AI tools we utilize are flawed or fail to execute properly, our ability to deliver our products and services to our customers may be adversely impacted.

New in FY2026

In addition, our competitors may incorporate AI tools into their products or operational processes more quickly or more successfully than us, which could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, reputation and results of operations.

New in FY2026

The intellectual property rights, including patent and copyright rights, associated with artificial intelligence have not been fully addressed by U.S. and foreign courts, and there remains uncertainty and ongoing litigation in different jurisdictions as to the degree and extent of protection warranted for artificial intelligence-generated technologies and relevant system inputs and outputs.

New in FY2026

The courts and regulators have not clearly defined the scope for artificial intelligence-generated content, algorithms or trained models.

New in FY2026

If we fail to secure or maintain protection for the intellectual property rights concerning technologies developed using artificial intelligence, or later have our intellectual property rights invalidated or otherwise diminished, our competitors may be able to take advantage of our research and development efforts to develop competing products, which could adversely affect our business, reputation, results of operations, or financial condition.

New in FY2026

Our use or future adoption of artificial intelligence in our business, which may include tools developed by third parties, could expose us to breach of a data or software license, website terms of service claims, claimed violations of privacy rights or other tort claims.

Epidemics, Pandemics or Outbreaks of Diseases May Adversely Impact Our Business, Operations, and Financial Results

Dropped from FY2025

Epidemics, pandemics or outbreaks of diseases may arise at any time and may have significant business, operational, and financial impacts.

Dropped from FY2025

For example, the COVID-19 pandemic has in the past and additional global heath crises may in the future result in efforts by national, state and local governments worldwide to control the applicable disease’s spread.

Dropped from FY2025

Such governmental efforts may result in measures aimed at containing the applicable disease such as quarantines, travel bans, shutdowns, and shelter in place or “stay at home” orders, which collectively have the potential to significantly restrict the ability of businesses to operate.

Dropped from FY2025

In addition, restrictions resulting from global health crises and related measures aimed at containing the applicable disease, incidents of confirmed or suspected infections within our workforce or those of our suppliers or other business partners, and efforts to act in the best interests of our employees, customers, and suppliers, in connection with a pandemic or disease outbreak, may affect our business and operations by, among other things, causing facility closures, production delays and capacity limitations; disrupting production by our supply chain; disrupting the transport of goods from our supply chain to us and from us to our customers; requiring modifications to our business processes; requiring the implementation of business continuity plans; requiring the development and qualification of alternative sources of supply; requiring the implementation of social distancing measures that impede manufacturing processes; disrupting business travel; disrupting our ability to staff our on-site manufacturing and research and development facilities; delaying capital expansion projects; and necessitating teleworking by portions of our workforce.

Dropped from FY2025

These impacts may cause delays in product shipments and product development, increases in costs, and decreases in revenue, profitability and cash from operations, which may cause an adverse effect on our results of operations that may be material.

Dropped from FY2025

Global health crises may also have significant macroeconomic impacts, including, but not limited to, significant disruption of global financial markets, increases in levels of unemployment, and economic uncertainty.

Dropped from FY2025

This may lead to significant negative impacts on customer spending, demand for our products, the ability of our customers to pay, our financial condition and the financial condition of our suppliers, and our access to external sources of financing to fund our operations and capital expenditures.

Dry Resist Process and Product Family

New in FY2026

Dry EUV resist technology is a patterning approach used in advanced semiconductor device manufacturing that enables both increases in device scaling and pattern density as well as reductions in cost and complexity.

New in FY2026

In contrast to conventional wet-spin processing, dry resist films are formed through gas-phase deposition, resulting in superior molecular purity and image fidelity with less environmental impact.

New in FY2026

An additional advantage, unique to dry resist technology, is its ability to create customized mixtures, layers, and gradients within the film itself, further enhancing pattern fidelity and device yield, and reducing overall lithography process running costs.

New in FY2026

Following EUV exposure, latent device images in the dry resist film are also developed using a completely dry process, eliminating the possibility of pattern distortions and collapse which are common in wet spin processing.

New in FY2026

By eliminating liquid chemicals, dry EUV resist processing provides the semiconductor device industry with the most capable and beneficial EUV patterning processes.

New in FY2026

Aether® Product Family

New in FY2026

Aether® enables vacuum‑based formation of resist underlayers and films and utilizes dry development processes to improve pattern fidelity at small pitch dimensions.

New in FY2026

Increasing demand for energy‑ and compute‑intensive applications continues to drive the need for higher memory density and lower cost per bit, for which industry adoption of EUV lithography is an important enabler.

New in FY2026

Lam’s dry photoresist technologies support the patterning process from resist application and stack formation through pattern transfer, integrating with subsequent etch and cleaning steps used in device fabrication.

New in FY2026

Dry processing also reduces the use of liquid chemicals and energy compared to conventional wet resist processes.

New in FY2026

On March 11, 2026, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the “March 2026 ASR”) with a financial institution to repurchase a total of $200.0 million of Common Stock.

New in FY2026

We took an initial delivery of approximately 685 thousand shares, which represented 75% of the prepayment amount divided by our closing stock price on March 11, 2026.

New in FY2026

The total number of shares received under the March 2026 ASR was based upon the average daily volume weighted average price of our Common Stock during the repurchase period, less an agreed upon discount.

New in FY2026

Final settlement of the March 2026 ASRs occurred in June 2026, resulting in the receipt of approximately 55 thousand additional shares, which yielded a weighted-average share price of $270.71 for the transaction period, including the effects of a 1% excise tax under the Inflation Reduction Act.

New in FY2026

Final settlement of the April 2025 ASRs occurred in September 2025, resulting in the receipt of approximately 317 thousand additional shares, which yielded a weighted-average share price of $91.00 for the transaction period, including the effects of a 1% excise tax under the Inflation Reduction Act.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

New in FY2026

Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

Design of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Dropped from FY2025

In designing and evaluating the controls and procedures associated with each, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and that the effectiveness of controls cannot be absolute because the cost to design and implement a control to identify errors or mitigate the risk of errors occurring should not outweigh the potential loss caused by the errors that would likely be detected by the control.

Dropped from FY2025

Moreover, we believe that a control system cannot be guaranteed to be 100% effective all of the time.

Dropped from FY2025

Accordingly, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met.

Dropped from FY2025

We intend to review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis and to correct any material deficiencies that we may discover.

Dropped from FY2025

Our goal is to ensure that our senior management has timely access to material information that could affect our business.

Dropped from FY2025

Effectiveness of Controls

Dropped from FY2025

While we believe the present design of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting is effective at the reasonable assurance level, future events affecting our business may cause us to modify our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting.
