VELDHOVEN: Investors are hoping that ASML’s bookings are robust enough to support its 2026 growth ambitions when the world’s biggest chip-making equipment supplier reports its second-quarter earnings on Wednesday.
The Dutch firm has lost around 30% in market value since peaking one year ago, reflecting investor concern over its growth prospects.
At an investor event last November, the maker of the EUV machine – the backbone of AI chipmaking – said it saw 2026 as a growth year but didn’t specify how much growth it anticipated.
