"Semiconductors are the picks and shovels for technology innovation and may represent one of the most attractive secular growth opportunities in the market today. Entegris provides the picks and shovels that enable the manufacturing of these advanced chips. Entegris generates high returns on capital and has a long runway for profitable reinvestment of these profits going forward. This consistent and profitable revenue growth outlook combined with a balance sheet with minimal leverage is exactly the type of business that I want to own for the long-term.
