ASML Holding NV said Wednesday that second-quarter net income
slipped slightly on quarter, though net sales and gross margin rose
and it lifted its full-year net sales guidance.
The Dutch manufacturer of lithography systems for the
semiconductor industry said net income for the period was 1.94
billion euros ($2.18 billion) compared with EUR1.96 billion in the
first quarter of 2023.
Net sales for the second quarter were EUR6.90 billion compared
with EUR6.75 billion in the previous quarter, at the high end of
guidance of between EUR6.5 billion and EUR7.0 billion. The gross
margin rose to 51.3% from 50.6%, exceeding guidance of 50%. The
company said this was primarily driven by more revenue for deep
ultraviolet over the quarter.
Net bookings for the quarter were EUR4.50 billion compared with
EUR3.75 billion.
The company said it expects strong growth for 2023, with a net
sales increase toward 30% on-year. It had previously guided for
2023 net sales to grow by more than 25% from 2022.
The board declared an interim dividend of EUR1.45 a share.
Customers across different market segments are more cautious due
to macroeconomic uncertainties, and the shape of recovery is still
unclear, Chief Executive Peter Wennink said.
"However, our strong backlog of around EUR38 billion provides us
with a good basis to navigate these short-term uncertainties,"
Wennink said.
