how to exit with success if the file is not found

I want to put a exit if there is no file found.
In the directory I can have multiple txt files with EPISGCHGS as prefix or maynot have one.

When I am trying the following it is erroring if there is no text file with the EPISGCHGS as prefix.

for file in EPISGCHGS*.txt
do
cat $file > ultisource.txt
done

Thanks in advance.
