Overview
FormFactor, Inc., headquartered in Livermore, California, is a leading provider of essential test and measurement technologies along the full semiconductor product lifecycle — from characterization, modeling, reliability, and design de-bug, to qualification and production test. We provide a broad range of high-performance probe cards, analytical probes, probe stations, thermal systems, and cryogenic systems to both semiconductor companies and scientific institutions. Our products provide electrical and optical information from a variety of semiconductor and electro-optical devices and integrated circuits from early research, through development, to high-volume production. Customers use our products and services to optimize device performance and advance yield knowledge.
We operate in two reportable segments consisting of the Probe Cards segment and the Systems segment. Sales of our probe cards and analytical probes are included in the Probe Cards segment, while sales of our probe stations, thermal systems and cryogenic systems are included in the Systems segment.
We generated net income of $76.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026, compared to $15.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. The increase in net income was primarily attributable to higher revenues, including record quarterly revenue in both the first and second quarters of fiscal 2026, and improved gross margins. These favorable factors were partially offset by higher restructuring charges associated with initiatives to better align our cost structure and support gross margin improvement.
Recent Developments
Tariff refunds — Beginning in 2025, the United States imposed additional tariffs on a wide range of imported products under various legal authorities, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”). These tariffs were subsequently modified through incremental increases, decreases, pauses, and limited exemptions.
On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed under IEEPA were not authorized by the statute. While the ruling did not establish a refund process, the U.S. Court of International Trade subsequently ordered U.S. Customs
24
and Border Protection (“CBP”) to implement a process to administer refunds, which CBP began executing with the April 20, 2026 deployment of the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (“CAPE”) system for certain IEEPA refund claims. We paid tariffs under IEEPA, and are following the established refund filing and validation process through the CAPE system, along with other importers seeking IEEPA refunds.
As of June 27, 2026, we received approximately $0.8 million in IEEPA refunds. We anticipate refunds of approximately $7.0 million to $9.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026.
2026 Restructuring Plans — In January 2026, we adopted restructuring plans that are intended to better align cost structure and support gross margin improvement to our target financial model, while also aligning manufacturing capabilities with current and anticipated business needs and our strategic priorities. As part of this restructuring plan, we are consolidating the manufacturing facilities located in Carlsbad and Baldwin Park, California to other sites. The Baldwin Park site manufactured through January 2026 and the Carlsbad site is expected to manufacture through December 2026.
Factory Expansion — In June 2025, we purchased a manufacturing site in Farmers Branch, Texas. We expect to begin production at this site late in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, with a ramp to initial target production levels over the course of fiscal 2027. The facility expands our manufacturing footprint and is expected to support incremental production capacity and a more favorable cost structure overall, once ramped to initial target production levels.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K describe the significant accounting estimates and significant accounting policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. During the six months ended June 27, 2026, there were no significant changes in our significant accounting policies or estimates from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2025.

Foundry & Logic — The increase in Foundry & Logic product revenues for the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, was driven by stronger probe-card demand for networking and high-performance compute microprocessor designs.
DRAM — The increase in DRAM product revenues for the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, was primarily driven by increased demand for high-bandwidth memory (“HBM”) designs utilized in generative artificial intelligence applications, with additional contributions from higher demand for other non-HBM DRAM designs. Revenue growth from HBM products accounted for approximately 75% and 69% of the year-over-year increase in DRAM product revenues for the three- and six-month periods, respectively.
Flash — The decrease in Flash product revenues for the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, was driven by decreased customer production activity and demand for our products. A portion of Flash product revenues during the period was associated with manufacturing activity at our Baldwin Park manufacturing facility, which was closed in connection with our 2026 Restructuring Plans. As a result of the facility closure and the expected growth of our other end markets, we expect Flash revenues to represent a smaller percentage of our overall revenue mix in future periods.
Systems — The increase in Systems market revenues for the three months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 28, 2025, was primarily driven by sales of Triton, our recently introduced high-volume co-packaged optics (“CPO”) testing solution. The increase in Systems market revenues for the six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 28, 2025, was also primarily driven by sales of Triton, partially offset by lower revenue from legacy product offerings as manufacturing capacity and customer demand increasingly shifted toward the Triton platform.

Geographic revenue information is based on the location to which we ship the product. For example, if a certain Taiwan customer purchases through its U.S. subsidiary and requests the products to be shipped to an address in Taiwan, this sale will be reflected in the revenue for Taiwan rather than the U.S.
Changes in revenues by geographic region for the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, were primarily attributable to changes in customer demand, product sales mix, and the timing of customer shipments and revenue recognition. Specifically, the changes in revenues by geographic region were attributable to the following:
•Taiwan — Increased demand for our Foundry & Logic probe card products and increased demand for Triton, our recently introduced high-volume CPO testing platform within Systems, contributed to the increase in revenues.
•South Korea — Increased demand for our DRAM probe card products, including those supporting HBM designs, contributed to the increase in revenues.
•United States — Decreased demand for certain Foundry & Logic and Systems customers contributed to the decrease in revenue.
•Japan — Decreased demand for legacy Systems products.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Margins
Cost of revenues consists primarily of manufacturing materials, compensation and benefits, shipping and handling costs, manufacturing-related overhead (including equipment costs, related occupancy, and computer services), warranty costs, inventory adjustments (including write-downs for inventory obsolescence), and amortization of certain intangible assets. Our manufacturing operations rely on a limited number of suppliers to provide key components and materials for our products, some of which are a sole source. We order materials and supplies based on backlog and forecasted customer orders. Tooling and setup costs related to changing manufacturing lots at our suppliers are also included in the cost of revenues. We expense all warranty costs, inventory provisions and amortization of certain intangible assets as cost of revenues.
We have been executing on initiatives for gross margin improvements through operational effectiveness and financial discipline, including:
•Deploying our workforce and existing manufacturing footprint more effectively, which included the execution of our 2026 Restructuring Plans. During the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, cost of revenues included $4.3 million and $25.8 million of restructuring costs, respectively, in connection with the 2026 Restructuring Plans.
•Driving improvement in manufacturing yields in key process areas, innovating to reduce manufacturing spending, and reducing cycle times in key manufacturing operations.

Gross margin 52.5 % 44.7 % 44.9 % 38.1 % 42.0 % 37.4 %
Probe Cards — For the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, gross profit and gross margins increased compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, primarily due to increased revenue from a favorable product mix and higher factory utilization, which includes the impact of our gross margin initiatives described earlier.
Systems — For the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, gross profit and gross margins increased compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, primarily due to increased revenue from a favorable product mix on increased volumes, partially offset by an increase in manufacturing spending.
Corporate and Other — Corporate and Other includes unallocated expenses relating to restructuring charges, net, stock-based compensation expense, and amortization of intangible assets and fixed asset fair value adjustments due to acquisitions, which are not used in evaluating the results of, or in allocating resources to, our reportable segments. The increase in Corporate and Other costs for the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, was primarily attributable to restructuring charges of $4.3 million and $25.8 million, respectively, incurred in connection with the 2026 Restructuring Plans.
Overall — Gross profit and gross margins fluctuate with revenue levels, product mix, selling prices, factory loading, and material costs. For the three and six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, gross profit and gross margins increased due to increased revenue from a favorable product mix and higher factory utilization, which includes the impact of our gross margin initiatives described earlier, partially offset by the restructuring charges incurred in connection with the 2026 Restructuring Plans.

Interest income is earned on our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities. Interest income increased for the three months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to higher average invested balances and interest income recognized on tariff refunds, partially offset by lower yields. Interest income decreased for the six months ended June 27, 2026, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to lower yields on invested balances.
Interest expense primarily includes interest on our term loan, interest rate swap derivative contracts, commitment fee on our revolving credit facility, term loan issuance costs amortization charges, and our revolving credit facility issuance costs amortization charges. The interest expense for the three and six months ended June 27, 2026 increased compared with the corresponding period in the prior year due to our entry into the revolving credit facility in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net, primarily includes the effects of foreign currency and various other gains and losses. We partially mitigate our risks from currency movements by hedging certain balance sheet exposures, which minimizes the impacts during periods of foreign exchange volatility.

(In thousands, except percentages)
Provision for income taxes $ 6,729 $ 2,372 $ 7,125 $ 3,447
Effective tax rate 11.1 % 15.9 % 8.9 % 15.4 %
Provision for income taxes reflects the tax provision on our operations in foreign and U.S. jurisdictions, offset by tax benefits from tax credits and the foreign-derived deduction eligible income (“FDDEI”) deduction. Our effective tax rate may vary from period to period based on changes in estimated taxable income or loss by jurisdiction, changes to the valuation allowance, changes to U.S. federal, state or foreign tax laws, changes in the benefit or expense related to stock-based compensation expense, future expansion into areas with varying country, state, and local income tax rates, and deductibility of certain costs and expenses by jurisdiction. The decrease in our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year was primarily driven by increased tax benefits associated with higher U.S. taxable income, including a larger FDDEI deduction, together with increased discrete tax benefits from stock-based compensation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources
Our working capital increased to $505.3 million at June 27, 2026, compared to $433.2 million at December 27, 2025.
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of deposits held at banks and money market funds. Marketable securities primarily consist of U.S. treasuries, corporate bonds, U.S. agency securities, and commercial paper. We typically invest in highly rated securities with low probabilities of default. Our investment policy requires investments to be rated single A or better, and limits the types of acceptable investments, issuer concentration and duration of the investment.
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled approximately $345.6 million at June 27, 2026, compared to $275.2 million at December 27, 2025. We have the full amount available under our $150 million revolving credit facility as of June 27, 2026. Based on our historical results of operations, we expect that our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on hand, the cash we expect to generate from operations, and the available capacity under our revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to fund our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements primarily arising from: research and development, capital expenditures, including the Farmers Branch expansion, working capital, outstanding commitments, and other liquidity requirements associated with existing operations. However, we cannot be certain that our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on hand, and cash generated from operations, will be available in the future to fund all of our capital and operating requirements. In addition, any future strategic investments and significant acquisitions may require additional cash and capital resources. To the extent necessary, we may consider entering into short and long-term debt obligations, raising cash through a stock issuance, or obtaining new financing facilities, which may not be available on terms favorable to us. If we are unable to obtain sufficient cash or capital to meet our needs on a timely basis and on favorable terms, our business and operations could be materially and adversely affected.
If we are unsuccessful in maintaining or growing our revenues, maintaining or reducing our cost structure, or increasing our available cash through debt or equity financings, our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities may decline.
We utilize a variety of tax planning and financing strategies to manage our worldwide cash and deploy funds to locations where needed. As part of these strategies, we indefinitely reinvest a portion of our foreign earnings. Should we require additional capital in the United States, we may elect to repatriate indefinitely-reinvested foreign funds or raise capital in the United States.

Cash Flows
The following table sets forth our net cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:
Six Months Ended
June 27, 2026 June 28, 2025
(In thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 106,764 $ 42,432
Net cash used in investing activities $ (88,711) $ (163,213)
Net cash used in financing activities $ (10,722) $ (7,178)
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities consists of net income for the period, adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in certain operating assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 27, 2026 was attributable to net income of $76.6 million and net non-cash expenses of $56.1 million, partially offset by the increase in net working capital of $25.9 million. The cash used in net working capital was primarily driven by increased accounts receivable, net, of $30.7 million and increased inventories of $19.6 million, partially offset by increased accounts payable of $14.5 million, increased accrued liabilities of $5.2 million, and increased deferred revenue of $3.4 million. The non-cash expenses mainly consisted of depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-cash restructuring, and the provision for excess and obsolete inventories.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 27, 2026 primarily related to $64.5 million in net purchases of marketable securities and $24.8 million of property, plant and equipment purchases.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 27, 2026 primarily related to $16.0 million used to pay tax withholdings for net share settlements of employee stock awards, partially offset by $5.8 million received from issuances of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan.
Debt
Revolving Credit Agreement
On July 29, 2025, we entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto, providing us with a $150 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). The Facility has a maturity date of July 29, 2030. The Facility may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. No amounts were outstanding under the Facility as of June 27, 2026.
Borrowings under the Facility will bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at our option, (i) the forward-looking secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) term, (ii) a base rate set forth in the Credit Agreement, or (iii) a combination thereof, plus, in each case, an applicable margin calculated based on our leverage ratio. Voluntary prepayments are permissible without penalty, subject to certain conditions pertaining to minimum notice and minimum prepayment and reduction amounts as described in the Credit Agreement.
The Facility also bears a quarterly commitment fee ranging from 0.15% to 0.25% on the daily amount by which the commitments under the Facility exceed the outstanding amount. The commitment fee as of June 27, 2026 was 0.15%.
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, including limitations on subsidiary indebtedness and liens, and the requirement to maintain specified financial ratios including the requirement to maintain a consolidated total net leverage ratio not exceeding 3.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter with an increase to 4.00 to 1.00 for four quarters following a permitted acquisition. We were in compliance with the Facility's covenants as of June 27, 2026.
Building Term Loan and Interest Rate Swap
On June 22, 2020, we entered into an $18.0 million 15-year credit facility loan agreement (the “Building Term Loan”). The proceeds of the Building Term Loan were used to purchase a building adjacent to our leased facilities in Livermore, California. On May 19, 2023, we amended the Building Term Loan, replacing the benchmark reference rate London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the term SOFR, with no change to the amount or timing of contractual cash flows.
33
The Building Term Loan bears interest at a rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate plus 1.86% per annum. Interest payments are payable in monthly installments over a fifteen-year period. The interest rate at June 27, 2026, before consideration of interest rate swap discussed in the next paragraph, was 5.48%. As of June 27, 2026, the balance outstanding pursuant to the Building Term Loan was $11.7 million.
On March 17, 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge the interest payment on the Building Term Loan for the notional amount of $18.0 million, and an amortization period that matches the debt. As future levels of LIBOR over the life of the loan were uncertain, we entered into this interest-rate swap agreement to hedge the exposure in interest rate risks associated with movement in LIBOR rates. This agreement was amended on May 19, 2023 to replace the benchmark reference rate LIBOR with SOFR to match the Building Term Loan agreement (as amended). After the amendment, the interest rate swap continues to convert our floating-rate interest into a fixed-rate at 2.75%. As of June 27, 2026, the notional amount of the loan that is subject to this interest rate swap is $11.7 million.
Stock Repurchase Programs
On October 30, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized a two-year program to repurchase up to $75.0 million of outstanding common stock, with the primary purpose of offsetting potential dilution from issuance of common stock under our stock-based compensation programs. On March 29, 2025, our Board of Directors approved an increase to the repurchase program, authorizing the repurchase of an additional $1.6 million in shares of common stock. During the first fiscal quarter of 2025, we repurchased and retired 665,000 shares of common stock for $22.1 million, utilizing the remaining shares available for repurchase under the program.
On April 24, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a new two-year program to repurchase up to $75.0 million of outstanding common stock to offset potential dilution from issuance of common stock under our stock-based compensation programs. This share repurchase program will expire on April 24, 2027. During fiscal 2025, we repurchased and retired 135,000 shares of common stock for $4.1 million. During the six months ended June 27, 2026, we did not repurchase shares of common stock under this program as we prioritized capital investments associated with the ramp of our Farmers Branch manufacturing facility. As of June 27, 2026, $70.9 million remained available for future repurchases.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
The following table summarizes our significant contractual commitments to make future payments in cash under contractual obligations as of June 27, 2026:
Payments Due In Fiscal Year
Remainder 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 Thereafter Total
Operating leases $ 4,658 $ 8,891 $ 5,212 $ 687 $ 452 $ 961 $ 20,861

Total $ 5,666 $ 10,882 $ 7,176 $ 2,613 $ 2,244 $ 7,981 $ 36,562
(1) Represents our minimum interest payment commitments at 5.48% per annum, excluding the interest rate swap described in Debt, above.
(2) Represents our quarterly commitment fee of 0.15% on the daily amount by which the commitments under the Facility exceed the outstanding amount. This commitment assumes no borrowings.
The table above excludes our gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits and our deferred grant. The gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $55.5 million as of June 27, 2026. The timing of any payments which could result from these unrecognized tax benefits will depend upon a number of factors and, accordingly, the timing of payment cannot be estimated. The deferred grant was $18.0 million as of June 27, 2026, and consists of cash received from a California Competes Grant awarded from the California Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development. The timing of any potential repayments is dependent upon a number of factors, including the number of employees and capital investments within California over the 5-year term. Accordingly, the timing of any repayment cannot be estimated.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Historically, we have not participated in transactions that have generated relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of June 27, 2026, we were not involved in any such off-balance sheet arrangements.
