Where ASYS is headed
Amtech is one of those names that spent most of the last decade being a slightly confused conglomerate of furnace, polishing, and chemistry businesses with no clear story. That ended somewhere around the back half of 2025. The company finished its restructuring, dumped the loss-making solar adjacency for good, and is now sitting on two product lines that happen to be levered to the two hottest pockets of semiconductor capex: thermal processing for advanced packaging (think solder reflow for HBM stacks and chiplet substrates) and horizontal diffusion furnaces for silicon carbide wafer production. Revenue growth of 31% TTM with gross margins back at 46% is the proof that the mix shift is real, not accounting noise.
