GUILLERMO NOVO: I’m here today to tell you about our recent announcement of Versum Materials and Entegris merging into a new company, that will become one of the premier material suppliers to the semiconductor industry. This is truly a transformational change, not only for us as a company, and for Entegris – but for the industry.

We don’t have to do this. We want to do this.

Four things are really core drivers that are going to create value, for our customers, for our employees, and for our investors.

So the first point is the diversity of our portfolio.

If you look at the new company, look at the portfolio that it will have.

Basically, we will now have over five platforms: micro-contamination, advanced materials, specialty gases, packaging, advanced packaging, and our delivery systems and project capabilities.

This is going to create great growth opportunities, strong leadership positions in all those markets.     

Second is technology.

Technology’s at the core of who we are and— and— and how we operate. Well, it’s also the core of Entegris and how they operate. What’s nice is that we have very strong complementary technologies that are going to come together.

We’re going to have a footprint of capabilities that are going to be unique in the industry, that will allow us to collaborate with our customers, both locally and globally.

Third is about scale.

We’ve talked about the importance of scale in our industry. This is going to be around operations, manufacturing footprint that we have, infrastructure, offices. We’re going to be present where all our customers are in a much more efficient, more productive.

And that’ll drive growth and margin expansion for our business.

And I would say fourth is the enterprise scale.

    

With strong revenue— strong profitability, more reliable, steady earnings over the long term, fast-growing earnings, we couldn’t have asked for a better partner than Entegris in taking this step.

As I’ve spent the last two months getting to know the organization, getting to know their leaders, getting to know how they think, actually, we think a lot alike. The values are extremely strong. We talk about integrity. We talk about safety. We talk about how we treat our people. We talk about innovation, very strong innovation cultures in both companies. We talk about customer and how we create value.

So I think this is going to be a very good and strong merger, not just because of the quality of the business, but because of the people and the leadership that we will have.

One of the things that I’ve really enjoyed is working with Bertrand on putting this deal together. And I think what all of you will find out is he is a great leader.

I think he has a proven track record with what Entegris has done. But more importantly, he’s truly a strong strategic thinker. He cares about people. He cares about our customers. And I am totally convinced that he is going to be a fantastic leader for this new organization.

This is going to be a major company, not just in our industry, but if you look at materials, as a specialty materials company, it’s going to be one of the premier companies. It’ll be a place where people want to come to work.

What does that mean for our employees? It means more opportunities, more investment capabilities, more infrastructure. They need all of you for the value and the knowledge that you bring. We need all of them for the value and knowledge that they bring. And together, we’re going to be a much more powerful organization.

The company will be led by Bertrand Loy, who will be the new CEO. Seifi Ghasemi, our chairman, will be the chairman of the new company. The board will be a mixed board, five board members from Entegris, including Bertrand, and four from Versum Materials.

Most of our infrastructure’s going to be needed. And probably, if anything, it’s going to start growing because of greater investments that this company will be able to do.

Until a deal is closed, we are two separate companies. We compete. And I think our primary responsibility is to stay focused. Stay focused on delivering our plan. Stay focused on our strategy. And stay focused on servicing our customers. Once the merger actually happens, then we will do all of the integration work.

Thank you for your hard work to get us to where we are today.

Thank you in advance for all the hard work to get us into this future. And what I can say is, this is going to be an exciting time in the years to come. Because this is a great industry to be in. And this is going to be the company to be a part of in the future.
