Company Report

Strong Demand Will Result in ASML Expanding Capacity Up to 70% by 2028; Fair Value EUR 1,800

We believe ASML will remain the top lithography equipment provider in semiconductor foundries for the next two decades. TSMC, Intel, and Samsung redesigned their fabs a decade ago to make them suitable for extreme ultraviolet lithography, a costly and long endeavor, so it is quite unlikely that ASML will be displaced from its place in the foundry. In addition, no competitor has yet matched ASML’s technological leadership, and we don't see this happening in the next 10 years. The company’s competitive advantage should keep expanding as it increases its already-high EUR 6 billion research and development budget.

Price vs Fair Value

ASML is trading within a range we consider fairly valued.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

ASML’s machines can last 30 years, providing recurring service revenue. The switching costs and intangible assets required to displace these machines are enormous, with no competitor coming close to ASML’s technological leadership.

Bears

ASML sells a low-volume, high-price product. Lithography machines represent a high proportion of customers' costs, so if the company fails to innovate, customers will look for alternatives.

Company Profile

ASML is the leader in lithography systems for manufacturing semiconductors with 90% market share. Lithography is the process in which a light source is used to expose circuit patterns from a photomask onto a semiconductor wafer. Lithography allows chipmakers to increase the number of transistors in the same area of silicon, with lithography historically representing a high portion of the cost of making cutting-edge chips. ASML outsources the manufacturing of most of its parts, acting like an assembler. ASML’s largest clients are TSMC, Samsung, Intel, SK Hynix, and Micron.
