inTEST Continues Executing on Five-Point Strategy to Expand Geographically - Establishes Southeast Asia Center of Excellence in Malaysia

inTEST Corporation (NYSE American: INTT), a global supplier of innovative test and process technology solutions for use in manufacturing and testing in key target markets which include automotive/EV, defense/aerospace, industrial, life sciences, security, and semiconductor (“semi”), announced today it is establishing a new Center of Excellence in Penang, Malaysia that will co-locate sales, engineering, service and manufacturing for all three of its business divisions.

Nick Grant, President and CEO, commented, “A key element of our 5-Point Strategy for growth is geographic expansion. The new regional Center of Excellence, where we are co-locating our businesses, is the first of its kind for inTEST and will bring our high-quality, innovative, customer-focused solutions closer to our customers in Asia while providing a cost-effective location to drive further growth in the region. We are most successful at winning new customers through hands-on demonstration of our products and showcasing our engineering capabilities. By being closer to our prospective customers in Southeast Asia, we can provide easy access to and demonstrations of our market-driven engineered, high-quality solutions that solve their critical challenges with product development, production or quality control processes. It’s no surprise we chose the second most urbanized state in Malaysia, Penang, which is also the home to fast growing technology markets including medical devices and semiconductors, as the location of our facility. We believe that having this facility in the region will allow us to better serve existing customers and add new customers to drive continued growth, while offering a low-cost alternative for sourcing and operations. We will co-locate the few staff members that we have already located in the region and begin hiring to build out our capabilities.”

The 25,000 square foot facility will support applications engineering, product development and localized manufacturing for nearly all inTEST brands, including Acculogic, Ambrell, EMS Products, inTEST Thermal Solutions (ITS), and Videology. It will serve as the main location in the region for customer product demonstrations, customer service and applications training. Currently, Asia–Pacific represents approximately 35% of revenue for the Company primarily from customers based in the U.S.
