### 5. Omnyx Platform Introduction

The company introduced Omnyx, a new production board test platform designed to address the unique set of test challenges for server boards and tray assemblies, enabling earlier detection of defects that are plaguing the build-out of AI data centers.

> "The second product introduction is Omnyx, which is a new production board test platform designed to address the unique set of test challenges for server boards and tray assemblies. This platform uses power, thermal, optical and TDR test capabilities from across all of Teradyne to enable earlier detection of defects that are plaguing the build-out of AI data centers."

### 6. Verticalization Concentration Risk

While the business is concentrating into vertically-integrated technology companies, this concentration also increases the risk of short-term demand peaks and valleys.

> "While these massive customers are driving strong growth, it also means that the business is increasingly concentrated to these customers into a smaller number of very large ASIC and commercial device programs. This concentration also increases the risk that bottlenecks in other areas could shift demand for our products, which can lead to short-term demand peaks and valleys superimposed over long-term strong growth trend."
