We raise our estimates following ASM's Q2 results reflecting improved H2

visibility, continued momentum in GAA logic and HBM-driven DRAM

investment and confidence in the medium-term growth trajectory.

Management now expects 2027 revenue above the upper end of its prior

€3.7-4.6bn target (Citie €5bn), supported by increasing investment at

both 2nm and 3-7nm nodes, the first meaningful 1.4nm contribution in

2H26 and a larger ramp in 2027, as well as further ALD and Epi share

gains. This drives our EPS upgrades of 7%/5%/2%/1% across FY26-29.

Our TP remains at €1000, driven by 34x 2028 PE as we roll forward our

valuation framework (from 40x 2027 PE), in-line with our broader sector

approach. We continue to see ASM International as well placed to benefit

from sustained investments in AI infrastructure, and growth in advanced

logic nodes (2nm and future 1.4nm), HBM memory production and new

architectures requiring increasing deposition intensity. Buy.
