1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization — Ultra Clean Holdings,
 Inc. (“UCT”) was founded in November 2002 for the
 purpose of acquiring Ultra Clean Technology Systems and Service
 Inc. Ultra Clean Technology Systems and Service, Inc. was founded
 in 1991 by Mitsubishi Corporation and was operated as a subsidiary
 of Mitsubishi until November 2002, when it was acquired by UCT. UCT
 became a publicly traded company in March 2004. In June 2006, the
 Company completed the acquisition of Sieger Engineering, Inc. to
 better enhance its position as a subsystem supplier to the
 semiconductor, research, flat panel, energy and medical equipment
 industries. Ultra Clean Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd and Ultra
 Clean Micro-Electronics Equipment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. were
 established in 2005 and 2007, respectively, to facilitate the
 Company’s operations in China. Ultra Clean Asia Pacific, Pte,
 Ltd. (Singapore) was established in fiscal year 2008 to facilitate
 the Company’s operations in Singapore. In July 2012, UCT
 acquired American Integration Technologies LLC (“AIT”)
 to immediately add to the Company’s existing customer base in
 the semiconductor and medical spaces and to provide additional
 manufacturing capabilities. In November 2014, the Company launched
 its 3D printing business in Singapore through a $40,000 acquisition
 of a privately held company, Prototype Asia, to develop additive
 manufacturing capability for the Company’s customer base. In
 February 2015, UCT acquired substantially all of the assets of
 Marchi Thermal Systems, Inc. (“Marchi”), a designer and
 manufacturer of specialty heaters, thermocouples and temperature
 controllers, for approximately $29.9 million in cash and
 1,437,500 shares of newly issued common stock for a total
 purchase price of approximately $43.7 million. The newly acquired
 company, Marchi, is a leader in custom design and manufacture of
 heaters, sensors, and controllers. Marchi delivers flexible heating
 elements and thermal solutions to our customers. Heaters are a
 critical component in many types of semiconductor capital
 equipment. The Company believes heaters are increasingly critical
 in equipment design for the most advanced semiconductor nodes. The
 primary reason for this acquisition was to expand its capabilities
 with the Company’s existing semiconductor equipment
 customers, increase its footprint in this market and bring about
 earlier engagement of new products and next generation equipment.
 The company financed the cash portion of the acquisition by
 borrowing a total of $29.7 million under a new senior secured
 credit facility, under which we also borrowed $46.5 million to pay
 off the total outstanding loan balance from the Company’s
 existing credit facility. Following the acquisition of Marchi, the
 Company’s cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately
 $77.4 million and total debt was approximately $76.2 million. See
 further discussion of the new borrowing arrangements in Note 5 to
 the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial
 Statements.
The Company is a global leader in the design, engineering, and
 manufacture of production tools, modules and subsystems for the
 semiconductor capital equipment industry and industry segments with
 similar requirements including consumer, medical and flat panel
 display. The Company focuses on providing specialized engineering
 and manufacturing solutions for these applications. The Company
 enables its customers to realize lower manufacturing costs and
 reduced design-to-delivery cycle times while maintaining high
 quality standards.
The Company provides its customers with complete solutions that
 combine its expertise in design, scan, assembly, test, component
 characterization and highly flexible global manufacturing
 operations with excellence in quality control and financial
 stability. The Company’s global footprint helps the Company
 to drive down total manufacturing costs, reduce design-to
