Company Introduction: Management of ACM Research (Shanghai), Inc. (the “Company”) provided a brief overview of 2025 operating results and financial performance, and addressed questions from investors. II. Q&A 1. Are the panel-level packaging production lines for overseas clients primarily focused on power chips or AI chips? What is the current development status of panel-level equipment? A: Panel-level packaging equipment is currently focused primarily on large- die AI chips. The market supports three main panel sizes: 600×600mm, 510×515mm and 310×310mm. We have strategically launched three new panel-level advanced packaging products: the Ultra ECP ap-p panel-level electroplating tool, the Ultra C vac-p panel-level vacuum cleaning tool, and the Ultra C bev-p panel-level edge-bevel etching tool. Our panel-level electroplating and vacuum cleaning tools have been adopted by leading Chinese customers, with both product qualification and production deployment successfully completed. We are also actively promoting production deployment and market development for these three panel-level tools in Taiwan. 2. What is the progress of the Company’s overseas market expansion? A: Expanding into international markets is a strategic priority. We remain
committed to our three-pillar strategy of technological differentiation, product platformization and global customer development. Our product portfolio spans cleaning tools, electroplating tools, vertical furnace systems, track (coating and developing) equipment, PECVD tools, stress-free polishing equipment, wafer-level advanced packaging tools and panel-level advanced packaging tools, all developed in-house with worldwide IP ownership, and each carrying differentiated competitive advantages that have continued to build our credibility with international customers. Our differentiated, proprietary equipment has attracted interest and recognition from multiple international clients. We hope to achieve meaningful breakthroughs in Southeast Asia this year, and our panel-level tools are also expected to enter the Taiwan market. Looking ahead, we will continue with our efforts on our global customer strategy, to expanding our international sales footprint, bringing more differentiated products to global markets, and driving overall revenue growth while contributing to the advancement of the global semiconductor industry. 3. What is the Company’s outlook for orders in 2026? A: We have previously disclosed our 2026 revenue guidance. Taking into account recent business development trends, our current order pipeline, and other relevant factors, we expect ACM Shanghai revenue for the full year 2026 to be in the range of RMB 8.2 billion to RMB 8.8 billion. 4. What are the Company’s expectations for gross margin and R&D spending as a percentage of revenue in 2026? A: Through disciplined cost management, ongoing product mix optimization and continued expansion into higher-value applications, for ACM Shanghai we are targeting a full-year 2026 gross margin in the range of 42% to 48%, and R&D investment as a percentage of revenue is expected to be in the range of 14% to 19%. 5. The Company previously disclosed provisions for asset impairments in 2025. What drove these impairments, and what is the expected impact on 2026? A: In accordance with China’s Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises and our internal accounting policies, and applying the principle of prudence, we conducted a comprehensive review and assessment of all accounts receivable, inventories, and other assets within the consolidation scope, taking into account actual business conditions and market developments. Based on the results of that impairment assessment, we recognized impairment were identified. These provisions are fully compliant with applicable accounting standards, our accounting policies, relevant laws and regulations, and are consistent with our actual operating conditions. We do not expect them to have a material adverse effect on our ongoing
operations. 6. There are signs that component prices may be rising. Could this affect the Company’s gross margin? A: We have been closely monitoring market pricing trends and have taken proactive steps to mitigate potential impacts. By increasing our use of domestically sourced components and broadening our supply base, we have been able to manage procurement costs effectively. Component price movements have not had a material impact on our gross margin to date. Going forward, we remain focused on strengthening our cost management capabilities while maintaining supply chain resilience, so that we are well- positioned to navigate external market dynamics and protect overall profitability. 7. What progress has the Company made in qualifying domestically sourced components? A: Supply chain continuity and security are priorities for us, and we have made meaningful progress in localizing core components over the past several years. Non-standard components have been fully localized. We have also achieved important milestones on certain core standard components, magnetic rotary pumps, heaters and filters, among others, have been domestically sourced. To further advance this effort in a systematic way, starting in 2025, we designed and assembled two fully domestic-component equipment systems covering both the semiconductor front-end and advanced packaging segments. These systems are scheduled to undergo component testing and validation in our Lingang cleanroom facility, and components that pass qualification are expected to be progressively introduced into our mass production equipment. It should be noted that these systems are internal test platforms built solely to evaluate component performance. 8. What is the validation status of the Company’s front-end track (coating and developing) equipment, and what is the outlook for shipments? A: We are steadily building out our track equipment portfolio across both KrF and ArF technology nodes, which together form the core of our track product line. After five years of R&D, we introduced our first high-throughput KrF front-end Track tool, the Ultra LITH KrF in Q3 2025. Running at 300 wafers per hour, this system features advanced temperature control and real-time process monitoring and control, extending our reach into lithography- adjacent applications and demonstrating our ability to continue expanding into new product categories. The first unit shipped to a leading Chinese logic wafer manufacturer in September 2025, and we expect full process qualification to be completed this year. Building on the architectural commonality between our KrF and ArF platforms, we expect to accelerate
development and production of our ArF Immersion tool, and look forward to collaborating closely with customers on that program. 9. How does the Company view the industry outlook? What are the key growth drivers over the next two years? A: We are constructive on the semiconductor industry outlook over the next two to three years. Memory and logic capacity expansion remains ongoing, and we continue to see strong secular growth in China’s semiconductor market. Alongside our ongoing efforts to enhance existing product lines, we are accelerating the commercialization of new tools. With three to five years of R&D now behind us, we believe our furnace, panel-level advanced packaging, PECVD and Track product lines are entering a period of accelerated growth, and we are confident in the growth prospects of each of these product lines. 10. What’s the Company’s thinking on the revenue mix between cleaning equipment and newer product lines? A: Cleaning equipment represented 66.4% of ACM Shanghai’s total revenue in 2025. As newer product lines scale, the mix of cleaning of our total revenue may gradually decrease, which would reflect the portfolio's healthy diversification. That said, in the Chinese market specifically, our long-term goal is to reach approximately 60% market share in the cleaning equipment segment. 11. What is the current status of the Company’s PECVD business, and how is the Company approaching this opportunity? A: We are advancing our PECVD capabilities through independent R&D. Our system is built around a proprietary single-chamber, three-chuck architecture that offers significant process flexibility across a wide range of application requirements. Our Ultra PmaxTM PECVD tool features proprietary chamber, gas distribution and chuck designs, delivering improved film uniformity, lower film stress, and reduced particle counts. The introduction of this tool marks our entry into a new dry-process segment within front-end semiconductor manufacturing. In 2025, the Ultra PmaxTM PECVD achieved multi-process film deposition milestones and completed demonstration testing on our Lingang test and R&D line. We have strong conviction in our differentiated technological architecture and in the market opportunity for PECVD, and we will continue to invest in R&D and grow our presence in both domestic and international markets.
