Recent Financial Performance

Q2 2025 Results (ended June 28, 2025)

- Net Sales: $792 million

- GAAP Diluted EPS: $0.35

- Non-GAAP Diluted EPS: $0.66

Entegris (NASDAQ: ENTG) surpassed analyst expectations for both GAAP revenue and Non-GAAP EPS in Q2 2025. GAAP revenue reached $792.4 million, with Non-GAAP EPS at $0.66.

This performance was bolstered by strong demand in the Materials Solutions (MS) segment, which reported GAAP revenue of $354.9 million, a 3.7% increase year-over-year. CMP consumables and deposition materials, crucial for advanced-node chip manufacturing, continued to experience robust customer adoption.

The Advanced Purity Solutions (APS) segment generated GAAP revenue of $439.9 million, a 6.9% decrease compared to Q2 2024. While micro-contamination control solutions remained strong, overall segment results were impacted by reduced capital equipment spending from chipmakers, particularly affecting fluid handling products.
