Korean maker of deposition and thermal-processing tools that build the thin films inside memory chips.
Korean maker of deposition and thermal-processing tools that build the thin films inside memory chips.
Sells deposition tools in orders tied to memory makers' expansion, with SK hynix the anchor buyer, then earns on parts and service. Winning customers beyond SK hynix matters because one customer's capital spending dominates its order book.
In one line: A small, memory-focused Lam Research.
Moat: narrow (customer qualification, process know-how). Tool-of-record at SK hynix for some DRAM/NAND steps; switching a qualified tool mid-node is costly.
