Bulls say / Bears say
Besi’s Q3 orders rose 96% year on year and 17% quarter on quarter, while revenue more than doubled year on year. Higher sales and margins lifted net income to €107.2 million, showing strong earnings leverage as demand grows. (Besi)
Hybrid bonding orders more than doubled year to date against all of 2025, and Besi reports adoption by 23 customers with cumulative demand above 215 systems. Orders are coming from logic, memory, co-packaged optics and edge AI, widening the technology’s potential beyond a single use case. (Besi)
Besi’s expanded partnership with Applied Materials covers hybrid bonding as well as thermo-compression bonding, panel integration and photonics applications. The collaboration could help Besi develop and commercialise equipment for the AI industry’s growing need for denser chip connections. (Applied Materials)
Besi expects Q4 revenue to be roughly flat against Q3, with gross margin lower and operating expenses higher. That guidance points to a near-term pause in growth even after the sharp rise in orders. (Besi)
The timing and scale of hybrid bonding for high-bandwidth memory remain uncertain: memory shortages have extended the use of lower-stack designs, while customers prioritise capacity. If memory makers delay switching, a major expected source of future equipment demand may arrive later than investors expect. (Reuters, Besi)
A report based on ASML patent filings suggested the larger chip-equipment maker may be developing a competing hybrid-bonding tool. ASML has not confirmed this, but the prospect could threaten Besi’s position in an important growth market. (Reuters)
