"We see litho intensity continue to develop positively as EUV adoption gains momentum," said CEO Christophe Fouquet. Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography is a process that utilizes short-wavelength ultraviolet light to etch ultrafine patterns onto silicon wafers used in the manufacturing of advanced semiconductor chips.
He noted the company's progress on High NA EUV technology and its first shipment of the TWINSCAN XT:260, an advanced packaging tool offering up to four times the productivity of existing systems.
Fouquet added that ASML's collaboration with Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:NVDA)-backed Mistral AI is embedding artificial intelligence across its product portfolio to enhance chip yield and system performance.
ASML forecasts fourth-quarter 2025 sales between €9.2 billion ($10.69 billion) and €9.8 billion ($11.39 billion), with a gross margin of 51%–53%.
For the full year, the company expects around 15% sales growth compared with 2024 and a gross margin near 52%.
Fouquet cautioned that China sales will likely decline in 2026 following strong demand in 2024 and 2025 but said overall revenue will remain stable. "We do not expect 2026 total net sales to be below 2025," he said.
