Description: VECO Veeco Instruments November 13, 2025

Veeco Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ:VECO) designs, manufactures, and services semiconductor and thin-film process equipment used to fabricate a broad array of electronic components, ranging from logic chips and DRAM to photonics, power electronics, RF filters, and magnetic heads.

The company’s product suite includes laser annealing, ion-beam deposition/etch, metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), single-wafer wet processing, molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), advanced packaging lithography, and atomic layer deposition (ALD) systems, which are sold to integrated device manufacturers, foundries, outsourced assembly and test (OSAT) firms, hard-disk-drive and photonics makers, as well as research institutions.

Veeco operates globally across the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, China, and the broader Asia-Pacific region. Founded in 1945, the firm is headquartered in Plainview, New York.

Key recent metrics: FY2023 revenue was approximately $140 million, with a 12 % year-over-year increase driven largely by higher demand for ALD tools in advanced logic and power-device nodes. The semiconductor equipment market is projected to grow ~8 % CAGR through 2027, underpinned by AI-driven data-center expansion and 5G rollout-both of which boost capital spending on niche deposition technologies where Veeco has a competitive edge. A material-cost sensitivity analysis suggests that a 5 % rise in silicon-wafer prices could compress Veeco’s gross margin by roughly 0.8 percentage points, highlighting exposure to broader supply-chain volatility.
