On January 31, 2025, we acquired Infineon Technologies AG's ("Infineon") automated test equipment technology and associated development team ("AET") based in Regensburg, Germany for a total purchase price of 17.6 million Euros, equivalent to $18.3 million. AET adds resources and expertise to our com…
While revenues in our test businesses are predominantly in U.S. dollars, the majority of our Robotics revenue is denominated in foreign currencies. Strengthening of the U.S. dollar has, and will continue to, negatively affect Robotics revenue throughout 2025.

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
