Description: LRCX Lam Research January 26, 2026

Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:LRCX) designs, manufactures, markets, refurbishes, and services a broad portfolio of semiconductor processing equipment used across the integrated-circuit value chain worldwide. Its product families span deposition (ALTUS, SABRE, SPEED, Striker, VECTOR), etch (Flex, Vantex, Kiyo, Syndion, Versys), cleaning (Coronus, Da Vinci, DV-Prime, EOS, SP series) and integrated platforms (Reliant, Sense.i), supported by aftermarket services and upgrades.

In its most recent fiscal year (FY 2025), Lam reported revenue of $15.2 billion, a 12 % year-over-year increase driven by higher demand for advanced-node equipment and a 23 % operating margin, reflecting disciplined cost control. Capital expenditures rose to $2.1 billion, underscoring continued investment in next-generation atomic-layer-deposition and high-density plasma technologies. The company’s exposure to the China market remains a material risk, as Chinese fab capacity growth slowed to 3 % YoY in Q3 2025 amid policy constraints, while global fab-as-a-service (FAAS) capacity is expanding at roughly 8 % annually, supporting long-term demand for Lam’s equipment.
