NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations Entegris, Inc. (Entegris or the Company) is a leading provider of a wide range of products for purifying, protecting and transporting critical materials used in processing and manufacturing in the semiconductor and other high-technology industries.

Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, particularly receivables, inventories, property, plant and equipment, and intangibles, accrued expenses and income taxes and related accounts, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basis of Presentation In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis and consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The results of operations for the three months ended March 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying value of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Amendments to Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The objective of ASU No. 2011-11 is to provide enhanced disclosures that will enable users of its financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position. In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, which clarifies what instruments and transactions are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU No. 2011-11. Derivative instruments accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, are subject to ASU No. 2011-11 disclosure requirements. These amendments are disclosure related and will not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income or cash flows. ASU Nos. 2011-11 and 2013-01 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The disclosures associated with ASU Nos. 2011-11 and 2013-01 are included in note 4 to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income that amended ASU No. 2011-12 and ASU No. 2011-05. ASU No. 2013-02 requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either in the consolidated statements of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income. These amendments are disclosure related and will not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income or

cash flows. ASU 2013-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. Accordingly, the Company adopted ASU 2013-02 in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The disclosures associated with ASU No. 2013-02 are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of equity.

Other ASUs issued not effective for the Company until after March 30, 2013 are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

5. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s financial reporting segments are Contamination Control Solutions (CCS), Microenvironments (ME), and Specialty Materials (SMD), each of which provide unique products and services, are separately managed and have separate financial information evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker in determining resource allocation and assessing performance.

•

CCS: provides a wide range of products and subsystems that purify, monitor and deliver critical liquids and gases used in the semiconductor manufacturing process.

•

ME: provides products that protect wafers, reticles and electronic components at various stages of transport, processing and storage related to semiconductor manufacturing.

•

SMD: provides specialized graphite components used in semiconductor equipment and offers low-temperature, plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition coatings of critical components of semiconductor manufacturing equipment used in various stages of the manufacturing process as well as graphite and silicon carbide for certain critical industrial markets.

Inter-segment sales are not significant. Segment profit is defined as net sales less direct segment operating expenses, excluding certain unallocated expenses, consisting mainly of general and administrative costs for the Company’s human resources, finance and information technology functions as well as interest expense, and amortization of intangible assets.

Summarized financial information for the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following table:

6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure for occurrences and transactions after the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements at March 30, 2013. On April 1, 2013, the Company acquired substantially all the assets and liabilities of Jetalon Solutions, Inc. (Jetalon), a California-based supplier of fluid metrology products. The purchase price for Jetalon included cash consideration of $13.4 million paid by the Company at closing and earnout-based contingent consideration based on the performance of Jetalon in 2013, 2014 and 2015. The acquisition of Jetalon’s assets and liabilities does not constitute a material business combination.

This overview is not a complete discussion of the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations; it is intended merely to facilitate an understanding of the most salient aspects of its financial condition and operating performance and to provide a context for the detailed discussion and analysis that follows and must be read in its entirety in order to fully understand the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Entegris, Inc. is a leading provider of a wide range of products and services for purifying, protecting and transporting the critical materials used in processing and manufacturing in the microelectronics and other high-technology industries. Entegris derives most of its revenue from the sale of products and services to the semiconductor and related industries. The Company’s customers consist primarily of semiconductor manufacturers, semiconductor equipment and materials suppliers as well as thin film transistor-liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) and hard disk manufacturers, which are served through direct sales efforts, as well as sales and distribution relationships, in the United States, Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

The Company offers a diverse product portfolio which includes more than 17,000 standard and customized products that it believes provide the most comprehensive offering of products and services to maintain the purity and integrity of critical materials used by the semiconductor and other high-technology industries. Certain of these products are unit-driven and consumable products that rely on the level of semiconductor manufacturing activity to drive growth, while others are capital-expenditure driven and rely on expansion of manufacturing capacity to drive growth. The Company’s unit-driven and consumable products includes membrane-based liquid filters and housings, metal-based gas filters, resin-based gas purifiers, wafer shippers, disk-shipping containers and test assembly and packaging products and consumable graphite and silicon carbide components used in plasma etch, ion implant and chemical vapor deposition processes in semiconductor manufacturing. The Company’s capital expense-driven products include components, systems and subsystems that use electro-mechanical, pressure differential and related technologies to permit semiconductor and other electronics manufacturers to monitor and control the flow and condition of process liquids used in these manufacturing processes, and process carriers that protect the integrity of in-process wafers.

The Company’s fiscal year is the calendar period ending each December 31. The Company’s fiscal quarters consist of 13-week or 14-week periods that end on Saturday. The Company’s fiscal quarters in 2013 end March 30, 2013, June 29, 2013, September 28, 2013 and December 31, 2013. Unaudited information for the three months ended March 30, 2013 and March 31, 2012 and the financial position as of March 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

The information in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, except for the historical information, contains forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and to the cautionary statement set forth above. These forward-looking statements could differ materially from actual results. The Company assumes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revision or updates to these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or unanticipated occurrences. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto, which are included elsewhere in this report.

Key operating factors Key factors, which management believes have the largest impact on the overall results of operations of Entegris, Inc., include:

•

Level of sales Since a significant portion of the Company’s product costs (except for raw materials, purchased components and direct labor) are largely fixed in the short to medium term, an increase or decrease in sales affects gross profits and overall profitability significantly. Also, increases or decreases in sales and operating profitability affect certain costs such as incentive compensation and commissions, which are highly variable in nature. The Company’s sales are subject to the effects of industry cyclicality, technological change, substantial competition, pricing pressures and foreign currency fluctuation.

•

Variable margin on sales The Company’s variable margin on sales is determined by selling prices and the costs of manufacturing and raw materials. This is also affected by a number of factors, which include the Company’s sales mix, purchase prices of raw material (especially polymers, stainless steel and purchased components), competition, both domestic and international, direct labor costs, and the efficiency of the Company’s production operations, among others.

•

Fixed cost structure The Company’s operations include a number of large fixed or semi-fixed cost components, which include salaries, indirect labor and benefits, facility costs, lease expense, and depreciation and amortization. It is not possible to vary these costs easily in the short-term as volumes fluctuate. Accordingly, increases or decreases in sales volume can have a large effect on the usage and productivity of these cost components, resulting in a large impact on the Company’s profitability.

Overall Summary of Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 30, 2013

For the three months ended March 30, 2013, net sales decreased by $10.3 million, or 6%, to $165.1 million compared to $175.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The year-over-year decline in net sales primarily reflected continued softness in semiconductor industry capital spending. The trends in the semiconductor industry remained mixed as pockets of strength related to foundry customers were offset by weak demand and production levels at legacy fabs and for PC-related devices.

Primarily reflecting the year-over-year sales decrease and a less favorable sales mix, the Company reported a lower gross profit in the first quarter of 2013, as the Company’s gross margin rate was 40.7% compared to 43.5% in the year-ago period. Operating costs, consisting of selling, general and administrative (SG&A) and engineering, research and development (ER&D) costs, declined 5% for the first quarter of 2013 when compared to the first quarter of 2012, slightly offsetting the decrease in gross profit.

The Company’s effective tax rate decreased to 24.1% in 2013, compared to 33.7% in 2012. The effective tax rate in 2013 included a $1.3 million benefit associated the reinstatement of the U.S. federal credit for increasing research expenditures, as retroactively signed into law during the first quarter.

The Company’s operating segments experienced varied net sales results for the three-month period as described in greater detail below.

As a result of the aforementioned factors, the Company reported net income of $16.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 30, 2013 compared to net income of $17.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company’s operating activities provided net cash flow of $7.4 million. Capital expenditures were $16.1 million for the quarter. Cash and cash equivalents were $338.8 million at March 30, 2013 compared with cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $350.4 million at December 31, 2012. The Company had no outstanding short-term or long-term debt at March 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The critical accounting policies affected most significantly by estimates, assumptions and judgments used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are described in Item 7 of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates the critical accounting policies used to prepare its consolidated financial statements, including, but not limited to, those related to accounts receivable-related valuation allowances, inventory valuation, impairment of long-lived assets, and income taxes. There have been no material changes in these aforementioned critical accounting policies.

Net sales For the three months ended March 30, 2013, net sales declined by $10.3 million, or 6%, to $165.1 million compared to $175.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The trends in the semiconductor industry remained mixed as pockets of strength related to foundry customers were offset by weak demand and production levels at legacy fabs and for PC-related devices. The Company’s operating segments experienced varied sales results. See “Segment Analysis” included below in this section for additional detail.

Demand drivers for the Company’s business primarily consist of semiconductor fab utilization and production (unit-driven) as well as capital spending for new or upgraded semiconductor fabrication equipment and facilities (capital-driven). The Company analyzes sales of its products by these two key drivers. Sales of unit-driven

products decreased 4%, while sales of capital-driven products fell 9%. Sales of unit-driven products represented 66% of total sales and capital-driven products represented 34% of total sales in the quarter ended March 30, 2013. For the first and fourth quarters of 2012, this split was 65%/35% and 69%/31%, respectively.

The sales decrease for the three-month period ended March 30, 2013 included unfavorable foreign currency translation effects of $3.1 million, primarily related to the weakening of the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar. Excluding this factor, net sales decreased 4% for the quarter. On a geographic basis, total sales to North America were 29%, Asia (excluding Japan) 43%, Europe 13% and Japan 15% compared to prior year first quarter figures as follows: North America 32%, Asia (excluding Japan) 36%, Europe 13% and Japan 19%. Sales in North America, Europe, and Japan fell 15%, 2%, and 27%, respectively, while sales increased 12% in Asia (excluding Japan) in the first quarter of 2013 compared to a year ago. Nearly one-half of the decrease in sales in Japan was due to the fluctuations in exchange rates noted above.

On a sequential basis, net sales decreased 2% from $167.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. Sales of unit-driven products decreased 5%, while sales of capital-driven products rose 5%. On a geographic basis, net sales to Europe and Asia increased 3% and 8%, respectively, while sales to Japan and North America declined 14% and 9%, respectively. The sequential sales decrease included an unfavorable foreign currency translation effect of $3.4 million, due primarily to the quarter-over-quarter weakening of the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar. Excluding this factor, net sales were flat on a sequential quarter basis.

Other than the foreign currency effects noted above, the Company believes its sales changes are primarily volume driven. Based on the information available, the Company believes it is generally improving or maintaining market share for its products and that the effect of selling price erosion has been nominal. Additionally, as no single customer accounts for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue, the changes in sales are not driven by any one particular customer or group of customers.

Gross profit Gross profit in the three months ended March 30, 2013 decreased to $67.1 million, down from $76.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The year-over-year sales decrease and a less favorable sales mix primarily accounted for the decline in gross profit. The gross margin rate for the first quarter of 2013 was 40.7%, compared to 43.5% in the first quarter of 2012. In addition, royalty revenue was $0.8 million lower in 2013 than a year ago.

On a sequential basis, gross profit increased slightly to $67.1 million from $66.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The gross margin rate of 40.7% for the first quarter of 2013 increased from 39.6% in the fourth quarter of 2012, mainly due to slightly improved factory utilization offset partly by a less favorable sales mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $32.4 million in the three months ended March 30, 2013, down 7% from the comparable three-month period a year earlier. Employee costs, which make up about two-thirds of overall SG&A expense, decreased $1.3 million, while travel-related expenditures, professional fees and bad debt expense declined $0.4 million, $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

Engineering, research and development expenses Engineering, research and development (ER&D) expenses related to the support of current product lines and the development of new products and manufacturing technologies were $12.2 million in the three months ended March 30, 2013 compared to $12.0 million in the year-ago period. The $0.2 million increase in ER&D expense was due to higher employee costs.

Other income, net Other income, net was $1.3 million in the three months ended March 30, 2013 compared to other income, net of $0.2 million in the year-ago period. Both years’ figures mainly reflect foreign currency transaction gains.

Income tax expense The Company recorded income tax expense of $5.2 million in the three months ended March 30, 2013 compared to income tax expense of $9.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2012. The effective tax rate was 24.1% in the 2013 period, compared to 33.7% in the 2012 period.

In 2013, the Company’s effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate mainly due to lower tax rates in certain of the Company’s taxable jurisdictions and a discrete tax benefit described hereafter.

On January 2, 2013 President Obama signed into law H.R. 8, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (the Act). The Act reinstated the federal credit for increasing research expenditures retroactively to the beginning of 2012. Accordingly, the Company recognized a discrete tax benefit of approximately $1.3 million related to the credit during the first quarter of 2013. None of the other Act provisions are expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.

In 2012, the Company’s effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate due to lower tax rates in certain of the Company’s taxable jurisdictions.

Net income The Company recorded net income of $16.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the three-month period ended March 30, 2013 compared to net income of $17.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012. The decline mainly reflects the Company’s lower net sales and the related decrease in gross profit.

Non-GAAP Measures Information The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The Company also utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures as a complement to financial measures provided in accordance with GAAP in order to better assess and reflect trends affecting the Company’s business and results of operations. See “Non-GAAP Information” included below in this section for additional detail, including the reconciliation of GAAP measures to the Company’s non-GAAP measures.

The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures are Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Income, together with related measures thereof, and non-GAAP Earnings Per Share.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 16% to $29.8 million in the three-month period ended March 30, 2013, compared to $35.7 million in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012. Adjusted EBITDA, as a percent of net sales, decreased to 18.1% from 20.3% a year earlier. Adjusted Operating Income decreased 23% to $22.5 million in the three-month period ended March 30, 2013, compared to $29.2 million in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012. Adjusted Operating Income, as a percent of net sales, decreased to 13.7% from 16.7% a year earlier. Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share decreased 7% to $0.13 in the three-month period ended March 30, 2013, compared to $0.14 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012.

Segment Analysis

The Company reports its financial performance based on three reporting segments. The following is a discussion on the results of operations of these three business segments. See Note 5 “Segment Reporting” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Company’s three segments.

The following table presents selected net sales and segment profit data for the Company’s three segments for the five quarters ended March 30, 2013:


	Three months ended
(In thousands)	March 30, 2013		December 31, 2012		September 30, 2012		June 30, 2012		March 31, 2012

Segment profit		2,216		1,046		2,112		4,404		4,668

Contamination Control Solutions (CCS)

For the first quarter of 2013, CCS net sales decreased 10% to $104.0 million, from $115.6 million in the comparable period last year. The year-over-year sales decrease reflected a decline in the sale of all of CCS’s product lines and included unfavorable foreign currency translation effects of $2.6 million related to weakness in the Japanese yen. The decrease in sales volume, along with unfavorable sales mix led CCS to report a segment profit of $22.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, down 31% from the $32.1 million segment profit in the year-ago period. Operating expenses were flat with the year-ago levels.

Primarily due to lower sales of liquid filtration products, CCS sales were down 6% on a sequential basis from the fourth quarter of 2012, which includes unfavorable foreign currency translation effects of $2.9 million related to weakness in the Japanese yen. The sales decrease was accompanied by a slightly improved sales mix, which along with higher operating expenses led to a 2% decrease in segment profit.

Microenvironments (ME)

For the first quarter of 2013, ME net sales increased 8% to $44.1 million, from $40.7 million in the comparable period last year. The revenue increase primarily reflected higher sales of shipper and 300mm wafer process products. ME reported a segment profit of $9.3 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to a $5.5 million segment profit in the year-ago period. The sales increase, an improved sales mix and a 4% reduction in operating expenses, mainly due to lower selling costs, led to the increase in segment profit.

Sales were up 3% on a sequential basis from the fourth quarter of 2012, due to improved sales of 300mm wafer process products. Due to a higher margin related to an improved sales mix and slightly lower selling expenses, the segment reported a 46% increase in segment profit.

Specialty Materials (SMD)

For the first quarter of 2013, SMD net sales decreased 11%, to $17.0 million, from $19.1 million in the comparable period last year. The sales decrease mainly reflected lower demand for SMD’s high-margin specialty-coated products. SMD reported a segment profit of $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2013, down 53%, compared to a segment profit of $4.7 million in the first quarter of 2012. The overall decline in sales, the negative effect of the change in sales mix, and slightly higher research and development expenses account for the reduction in segment profit.

Sales were up 14% on a sequential basis from the fourth quarter of 2012, which mainly reflects improved demand for SMD’s specialized graphite component products. The sales increase and an improvement in gross margin were partially offset by higher operating expenses, resulting in an 112% increase in SMD segment profit.

Unallocated general and administrative expenses

Unallocated general and administrative expenses totaled $11.1 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $13.1 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decline included lower severance costs ($0.8 million), share-based compensation expense ($0.2 million) and professional fees ($0.2 million).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating activities Cash flow provided by operating activities totaled $7.4 million in the three months ended March 30, 2013. Cash generated by operating activities in the first quarter of 2012 was primarily the result of net income adjusted for non-cash expenses (such as depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation). The net impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities absorbed $22.3 million in operating cash flow, mainly reflecting increases in accounts receivable and inventories, and a decrease in accrued liabilities.

Accounts receivable increased by $9.6 million, or $12.9 million net of foreign currency translation adjustments, during the first three months of 2013. This increase mainly reflects an increase in the Company’s days sales outstanding (DSO). The Company’s DSO was 57 days at March 30, 2013 compared to a historically-low 51 days at the beginning of the year.

Inventories at March 30, 2013 increased by $1.1 million from a year earlier, or $3.8 million after taking into account the impact of foreign currency translation adjustments and the provision for excess and obsolete inventory, during the first three months of 2013. The increase reflects higher levels of raw materials and work-in-process offset partly by a reduction in the level of finished goods.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities at March 30, 2013 were $7.5 million lower than at December 31, 2012, or $7.0 million net of foreign currency translation adjustments, mainly due to the payment of fiscal year 2012 incentive compensation during the first quarter of 2013.

Working capital at March 30, 2013 was $487.8 million, compared to $486.1 million as of December 31, 2012, and included $338.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $350.4 million as of December 31, 2012.

Investing activities Cash flow provided by investing activities totaled $3.9 million in the three-month period ended March 30, 2013.

Acquisition of property and equipment totaled $16.1 million, which primarily reflected investments in equipment and tooling to manufacture 450mm wafer handling products and to establish an advanced membrane manufacturing and development center for critical filtration applications. As of March 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding capital purchase obligations of $27.5 million for the construction or purchase of plant and equipment not yet recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements

as the Company had not yet received the related goods or property. The Company expects its capital expenditures in 2013 to be approximately $60 million to $70 million, including approximately $40 million to complete the Company’s 450mm technology center and advanced membrane and coatings facility. Under the terms of its revolving credit facility, the Company is restricted from making capital expenditures in excess of $85 million during any fiscal year. The Company does not anticipate that this limit on capital expenditures will have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

During the quarter ended March 30, 2013, the Company recorded proceeds of $20.0 million associated with the maturities of commercial paper classified as short-term investments as of December 31, 2012.

On April 1, 2013, the Company acquired substantially all the assets and liabilities of Jetalon Solutions, Inc. (Jetalon), a California-based supplier of fluid metrology products. The purchase price for Jetalon included cash consideration of $13.4 million paid by the Company at closing and earnout-based contingent consideration based on the performance of Jetalon in 2013, 2014 and 2015.

Financing activities Cash provided by financing activities totaled $1.8 million during the three-month period ended March 30, 2013, primarily reflecting proceeds received in connection with common shares issued under the Company’s employee stock purchase and stock option plans.

The Company received proceeds of $4.9 million in connection with common shares issued under the Company’s stock plans. Cash provided by financing activities was partially offset by the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock at a total cost of $3.8 million under the stock repurchase program authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors in 2012, as described below.

On December 12, 2012, the Board of Directors authorized a repurchase program for 2013 covering up to an aggregate of $50 million of the Company’s common stock in open market transactions and in accordance with one or more pre-arranged stock trading plans established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The repurchase program for 2013 will expire in December 2013 unless it is terminated or extended. The initial pre-arranged stock trading plan was established on February 19, 2013 and will expire August 19, 2013 and will cover the repurchase of up to $30 million of the registrant’s common stock.

The Company has a revolving credit facility maturing June 9, 2014, with a revolving credit commitment of $30.0 million. As of March 30, 2013, the Company had no outstanding borrowings and $0.2 million undrawn on outstanding letters of credit under the revolving credit facility. Through March 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants included in the terms of the revolving credit facility.

The Company also has lines of credit with two banks that provide for borrowings of Japanese yen for the Company’s Japanese subsidiary, equivalent to an aggregate of approximately $12.7 million. There were no outstanding borrowings under these lines of credit at March 30, 2013.

At March 30, 2013, the Company’s shareholders’ equity was $703.2 million, up 1% from $694.8 million at the beginning of the year. The increase reflected net income of $16.4 million, additional paid-in capital of $1.7 million associated with the Company’s share-based compensation expense, $4.9 million received in connection with common shares issued under the Company’s stock option and employee stock purchase plans, partially offset by the repurchase and retirement of its common stock of $3.8 million and foreign currency translation effects of $11.6 million.

As of March 30, 2013, the Company’s sources of available funds were its cash and cash equivalents of $338.8 million, funds available under its revolving credit facility and international credit facilities and cash flow generated from operations.

The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents, funds available under its revolving credit facility and international credit facilities and cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its working capital and investment requirements for at least the next twelve months. If available liquidity is not sufficient to meet the Company’s operating and debt service obligations as they come due, management will need to pursue alternative arrangements through additional equity or debt financing in order to meet the Company’s cash requirements. However, there can be no assurance that any such financing would be available on commercially acceptable terms.

The Company considers approximately $300 million of the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries as of March 30, 2013 to be indefinitely reinvested. As of March 30, 2013, the amount of cash and cash equivalents associated with indefinitely reinvested foreign earnings was $132.0 million. Amounts held by foreign subsidiaries are generally subject to U.S. income taxation on repatriation to the United States. The Company does not anticipate the need to repatriate funds to the United States to satisfy domestic liquidity needs arising in the ordinary course of business and believes its existing balances of domestic cash and cash equivalents and operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet the Company’s domestic cash needs for the next twelve months.

Non-GAAP Information The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP).

The Company also provides certain non-GAAP financial measures as a complement to financial measures provided in accordance with GAAP in order to better assess and reflect trends affecting the Company’s business and results of operations. Regulation G, “Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” and other regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, define and prescribe the conditions for use of certain non-GAAP financial information. The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Income together with related measures thereof, and non-GAAP Earnings Per Share (EPS).

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, is defined by the Company as net income attributable to Entegris, Inc. before (1) equity in net income of affiliates, (2) income tax expense (3) other income, net, (4) amortization of intangible assets and (5) depreciation. Adjusted Operating Income, another non-GAAP term, is defined by the Company as its Adjusted EBITDA less depreciation. The Company also utilizes non-GAAP measures whereby Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Income are each divided by the Company’s net sales to derive Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Operating Margin, respectively.

Non-GAAP EPS, a non-GAAP term, is defined by the Company as net income before (1) amortization of intangible assets and (2) the tax effect of that adjustment to net income.

The Company provides supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to better understand and manage its business and believes these measures provide investors and analysts additional and meaningful information for the assessment of the Company’s ongoing results. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to assist in the evaluation of the performance of its business segments and to make operating decisions.

Management believes the Company’s non-GAAP measures help indicate the Company’s baseline performance before certain gains, losses or other charges that may not be indicative of the Company’s business or future outlook and offer a useful view of business performance in that the measures provide a more consistent means of comparing performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures aid investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s results by providing a higher degree of transparency for such items and providing a level of disclosure that will help investors understand how management plans, measures and evaluates the Company’s business performance. Management believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors’ understanding of the Company’s historical operating trends by providing an additional basis for comparisons to prior periods.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Income to assist it in evaluations of the Company’s operating performance by excluding items that management does not consider as relevant in the results of its ongoing operations. Internally, these non-GAAP measures are used by management for planning and forecasting purposes, including the preparation of internal budgets; for allocating resources to enhance financial performance; for evaluating the effectiveness of operational strategies; and for evaluating the Company’s capacity to fund capital expenditures, secure financing and expand its business.

In addition, and as a consequence of the importance of these non-GAAP financial measures in managing its business, the Company’s Board of Directors uses non-GAAP financial measures in the evaluation process to determine management compensation.

The Company believes that certain analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income and non-GAAP EPS as supplemental measures to evaluate the overall operating performance of firms in the Company’s industry. Additionally, lenders or potential lenders use Adjusted EBITDA measures to evaluate the Company’s creditworthiness.

The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures or information provided in accordance with GAAP. Management strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure.

Management notes that the use of non-GAAP measures has limitations:

First, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized. Accordingly, the methodology used to produce the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures is not computed under GAAP and may differ notably from the methodology used by other companies. For example, the Company’s non-GAAP measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to EBITDA or an adjusted EBITDA measure reported by other companies.

Second, the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude items such as amortization and depreciation that are recurring. Amortization of intangibles and depreciation have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense with an impact upon the Company’s results of operations, notwithstanding the lack of immediate impact upon cash flows.

Third, there is no assurance the Company will not have future restructuring activities, gains or losses on sale of equity investments, or similar items and, therefore, may need to record additional charges (or credits) associated with such items, including the tax effects thereon. The exclusion of these items from the Company’s non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an implication that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.

Management considers these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures and evaluating these non-GAAP financial measures together with their most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The calculations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted operating income, and non-GAAP EPS, and reconciliations between these financial measures and their most directly comparable GAAP equivalents are presented below in the accompanying tables.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Entegris’ principal financial market risks are sensitivities to interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s interest-bearing cash equivalents are subject to interest rate fluctuations. The Company’s cash equivalents are instruments with maturities of three months or less. A 100 basis point change in interest rates would potentially increase or decrease annual net income by approximately $2.1 million annually.

The cash flows and results of operations of the Company’s foreign-based operations are subject to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company occasionally uses derivative financial instruments to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risks associated with its foreign-based operations. At March 30, 2013, the Company had no net exposure to any foreign currency forward contracts.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”)) as of March 30, 2013. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on management’s evaluation (with the participation of our CEO and CFO), as of March 30, 2013, its CEO and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures used by the Company, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the 1934 Act) during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
