News | Feb 01, 2023

PLAINVIEW, N.Y., Feb. 01, 2023 — 国产麻豆精品. (NASDAQ: VECO) today announced that on January 31, 2023, it acquired Epiluvac AB, a privately held manufacturer of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) epitaxy systems that enable advanced silicon carbide (SiC) applications in the electric vehicle market. Epiluvac, based in Sweden, was founded in 2013 by a highly experienced team in SiC. Epiluvac鈥檚 technology platform combined with Veeco鈥檚 global go-to-market capabilities create a significant long-term growth driver for Veeco.

The desire for clean, efficient and reduced fossil-fuel energy is driving tremendous growth in the electric vehicle market. Applications such as on-board charging, fast charging and powertrain inverters are ideally suited for SiC power devices. The SiC device market is forecasted to grow approximately 30% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2023 through 2027 according to Yole Group. Accordingly, the SiC epitaxy equipment market is expected to grow approximately 15% CAGR over the same time period according to Yole Group and internal 国产麻豆精品estimates.

鈥淭he Epiluvac team has developed a superior platform and process know-how aligned with markets that are a great strategic fit for Veeco,鈥 said Bill Miller, Veeco鈥檚 Chief Executive Officer.聽 鈥淭heir well-designed CVD platform achieves high productivity, is easy to maintain and has superior process control capability that make it uniquely qualified to produce devices that enable lighter, smaller and more efficient power conversion systems. We see this acquisition as a great complement to our metal organic chemical vapor deposition epitaxy product line. This acquisition accelerates our penetration into the emerging, high-growth SiC equipment market by reducing our time to market.鈥

鈥淲e are excited to join Veeco, a recognized leader in semiconductor and compound semiconductor capital equipment,鈥 commented Per-Anders Eriksson, Epiluvac鈥檚 Chief Executive Officer. 鈥淥ur complementary technology platforms, along with Veeco鈥檚 extensive worldwide sales, service and manufacturing capabilities, will position us well to help our customers enable accelerated SiC adoption. The decades of research and development the Epiluvac team has invested in this demanding epitaxial process will be a great asset to Veeco鈥檚 already impressive process capabilities.鈥

Epiluvac is an early-stage revenue company with 11 employees. The purchase price for the transaction, all payable in cash, is $30 million paid at the time of closing with a potential additional $35 million in performance based earn-outs. The impact to Veeco鈥檚 financial results are not expected to be material in 2023 and volume revenue is expected to begin in 2024.

国产麻豆精品will discuss the acquisition during its upcoming Q4 and full year 2022 earnings call on February 15, 2023.
