Description: LRCX Lam Research September 24, 2025

Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:LRCX) designs, manufactures, markets, refurbishes, and services a full suite of semiconductor processing tools used to build integrated circuits worldwide. Its portfolio spans deposition (ALTUS, SABRE, SPEED, Striker, VECTOR), etch (Flex, Vantex, Kiyo, Syndion, Versys), cleaning (Coronus, Da Vinci, DV-Prime, EOS, SP series) and advanced platform solutions (Reliant, Sense.i), supported by service, spares, and upgrades.

Key quantitative signals (FY 2023): revenue of $17.6 billion, up ~13 % YoY, driven by strong demand for advanced-node equipment (3 nm and below) and growth in AI-related workloads. The company’s gross margin held at ~46 %, reflecting pricing power in a concentrated market where Lam commands ~30 % share of the global wafer-fab equipment spend. Capital-expenditure cycles in the semiconductor sector, amplified by the U.S. CHIPS Act and rising fab capacity in Taiwan, South Korea, and the U.S., remain the primary macro driver of Lam’s order backlog.
