HAYWARD, Calif., April 8, 2025 — Ultra Clean Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq, UCTT) proudly announces its achievement in earning the exclusive Intel EPIC Supplier Award for the year 2025. This distinguished accolade highlights the top suppliers within Intel's network who have shown an unparalleled commitment to excellence and continuous improvement throughout the previous year.

In a statement celebrating this achievement, Frank Sanders, Intel's corporate vice president and general manager of Global Supply Chain Operations, expressed, "Congratulations to UCT on receiving the Intel EPIC Supplier Award, Intel's highest supplier recognition. Their unwavering commitment to quality, drive for excellence, and dedication to technology innovation make them vital to our success. We greatly appreciate their collaboration and continued focus on results."

This award is a major recognition, limited to a select group of companies within the semiconductor industry, all of which are highlighted for their dedication towards achieving what Intel refers to as 'EPIC' performance—Excellence, Partnership, Inclusion, and Continuous Improvement.

Moreover, Dave Bloss, corporate vice president and general manager of Global Sourcing for Equipment & Materials at Intel, remarked, "As one of a select few companies awarded the Intel EPIC Supplier Award in 2025, UCT is truly one of the best suppliers in the semiconductor industry. Their customer orientation and commitment to superior performance is a testament to their dedication and serves as a global benchmark for others to follow."
