July 8, 2026 - 19:24

Ultra Clean Holdings has brought on Michael Keogh as its next Chief Financial Officer, with his start date set for August 5, 2026. Keogh will take over from Sheri Savage and will report directly to CEO James Xiao.

Keogh arrives with a background in financial leadership within the semiconductor and technology sectors. His appointment comes at a time when Ultra Clean, a supplier of critical subsystems and components for the semiconductor industry, continues to navigate shifting demand cycles and supply chain pressures. The company has been working to strengthen its balance sheet and operational efficiency, and the new CFO is expected to play a key role in those efforts.

In a statement, Xiao highlighted Keogh's experience in managing financial strategy during periods of growth and transition. The outgoing CFO, Savage, has been with the company through several restructuring phases and is stepping down after a tenure that saw Ultra Clean expand its product portfolio and customer base.

Keogh's previous roles include senior finance positions at publicly traded manufacturing and technology firms. He holds a degree in accounting and is a certified public accountant. The transition is set to be seamless, with Savage remaining for a brief period to assist with handover duties. Ultra Clean did not disclose further details on the terms of the appointment or any changes to the executive compensation structure.
