Where Will ASML Stock Be in 5 Years?
Yahoo Finance ·
ASML ( ASML 2.09% ) just showed investors how much demand it is sitting on. On July 15, the Dutch semiconductor equipment maker reported second-quarter results and raised its full-year outlook for the second time this year. It now expects 2026 total net sales of 43 billion to 45 billion euros, up from the 36 billion to 40 billion euros it forecast in April. At the midpoint, that is about 35% growth over last year's 32.7 billion euros -- remarkable for a company whose machines already sit at the center of advanced chipmaking. So, with shares up about 69% this year as of this writing, where could the growth stock realistically be five years from now? ASML's second quarter itself was good. Total net sales came in at 9.3 billion euros with a gross margin of 54% -- both above the company's guidance, helped by stronger sales of services and upgrades to machines already in the field. And net income was 2.9 billion euros. Sales also grew from 8.8 billion euros in the first quarter, and first-half revenue ran about 17% ahead of the same period last year. The company also repurchased about 1.1 billion euros of its own shares during the quarter. The outlook carried the bigger news, though. ASML guided for third-quarter sales of 11 billion to 12 billion euros, and against the 9.3 billion euros it just reported, the midpoint implies more than 20% growth in a single quarter.
