ASM International Exceeds Forecasts in Q4 2025

Order Intake Surpasses Expectations

ASM International reports that its order intake for the fourth quarter of 2025 amounted to approximately 800 million euros, according to preliminary figures. This level significantly exceeds the guidance provided during the third quarter results announcement, which predicted orders slightly above the 637 million euros recorded in the third quarter. The group attributes this performance to a rebound in orders from China towards the end of the period, as well as strong order intake in the advanced logic and foundry segment. This development marks a significant improvement in the Dutch group's business dynamics in the last quarter of the year.

Quarterly Revenue Exceeds Projections

The quarterly revenue reached 698 million euros, surpassing the range of 630 to 660 million euros communicated during the previous quarter's earnings release, according to the statement. The company attributes this exceedance primarily to robust sales in the advanced logic and foundry segment, as well as significant sales of spare parts and services. These performances reflect sustained activity in the key segments of the equipment supplier, which designs and manufactures equipment for the production of semiconductor devices for wafer processing.

Positive Outlook for Early 2026

With the improvement in order trends observed in the fourth quarter, ASM International indicates it anticipates a notable increase in its revenue for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, at constant exchange rates. The group, headquartered in Almere, Netherlands, will publish its complete financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025 on March 3, 2026. These preliminary figures suggest a gradual recovery of activity for the Dutch equipment supplier, which has facilities in the United States, Europe, and Asia.
