INTEVAC ANNOUNCES $54 MILLION ORDER FOR 200 LEAN SYSTEMS

Intevac, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVAC), a leading supplier of thin-film processing systems, today announced the receipt of a $54 million order for multiple 200 Lean® systems. The order includes eight expanded-module systems, each of which are configured with 28 process chambers for the production of advanced hard disk drive (HDD) media.

Scheduled to ship over multiple quarters beginning in mid-2023, this order will be reflected in the Company’s backlog at its fiscal first-quarter end of April 2nd. This order also includes a down payment provision, due in the third fiscal quarter of 2022, which will help fund inventory purchases in support of this significant system build-out.

“We are pleased to announce Intevac’s largest 200 Lean order in over 12 years,” said Nigel Hunton, Intevac’s president and chief executive officer. “Over the past several months, we have appreciably grown backlog in support of the HDD industry’s first significant media capacity additions since 2010. Through a combination of new systems, upgrades, and tool refurbishment programs being deployed over the next several years, we believe all of the incremental media capacity added in the industry over this timeframe will be on our 200 Lean platform.”
