Entegris, Inc. (ENTG)

Semiconductor materials and purity products maker. Read October 19, 2026 from the annual report for the period ending December 31, 2025, filed February 11, 2026. Ranked 123 of the 155 Technology companies read so far, by the share within reach now.

A semiconductor materials company whose filing states 7,700 employees by region with 1,600 in research and nothing by segment, so chemicals lead by description with plastics products and purification machinery beside them.

The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.

What follows from the reading

Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 19% now, 29% at the end of 2027, 33% at the end of 2028, 34% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 34% desk work, 13% people work and 53% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 65% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 29% becomes checking a model's work and 4% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.

What the filing says about AI

18 sentences in the filing name AI. The filing says AI, high-performance and cloud computing and other applications are expected to drive long-term semiconductor demand, and that AI workloads fuel demand for advanced logic chips and high bandwidth memory that require its materials.

• “Many products and emerging applications-including artificial intelligence ("AI"), high-performance and cloud computing, smartphones, wearable technology, electric and autonomous vehicles, the Internet of Things, gaming, virtual/augmented reality, and smart healthcare- are expected to drive long-term secular demand for semiconductor and require faster, more powerful, more compact and more energy...”
• “Products and emerging applications-including AI, high-performance and cloud computing, smartphones, wearable technology, electric and autonomous vehicles, the Internet of Things, gaming, virtual/augmented reality, and smart healthcare- will drive semiconductor demand and create significant opportunities for our products.”
• “In particular, AI workloads are fueling demand for advanced logic chips with higher transistor density and specialized architectures, as well as High Bandwidth Memory ("HBM") to support the enormous data throughput required for training and inference in large-scale models.”
• “AI is also accelerating innovation in chip packaging and interconnect technologies, such as chiplets and 2.5D/3D integration, to enable higher performance and energy efficiency in complex systems.”
• “We believe these trends position us to capitalize on growth opportunities in next-generation AI and high-performance computing by providing critical materials and process solutions that enable the production of advanced logic devices and HBM.”

Limits of this reading

• The U.S. share is not stated: the filing counts North America at 51%.
• No count by segment: the split among chemicals, plastics products and purification machinery is by description (c); the research count stays inside.
