ASML Holding, a key player in the global semiconductor supply chain, is expected to see its stock price reach the $2,000 milestone in the next two years. The company's impressive backlog, accelerating bookings driven by the AI boom, and anticipated revenue growth of 13% in 2026 and 17% in 2027 suggest it is well-positioned to achieve this milestone.
Why it matters
ASML's dominance in advanced chipmaking equipment, particularly its extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography technology, makes it a crucial supplier to major semiconductor manufacturers. As demand for high-performance, power-efficient chips grows to support AI applications, ASML is poised to benefit significantly, potentially driving its stock price to new heights.
The details
ASML reported a 48% increase in net bookings to over 28 billion euros in 2025, indicating strong demand for its equipment. The company's customers, including Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing and Micron Technology, are expected to significantly increase their capital expenditures, which could drive ASML's revenue to over $51 billion by 2027, a 17% increase from 2026 estimates. ASML's current valuation of 14.3 times sales, a premium to the tech sector average, is justified by its growth potential.
