What Mycronic does

Swedish maker of high-precision assembly (pick-and-place) equipment and mask-writing lithography systems for chip/display makers.

Sells expensive machines, so revenue arrives in lumps tied to customers' investment cycles, with servicing and upgrades of the installed base giving a steadier layer. Mask writers, which print the master patterns used to make displays and chips, are a high-value niche with few suppliers; assembly equipment for electronics factories is the other main business.

In one line: A Swedish niche semiconductor/display equipment maker, no direct large US peer.

Is Mycronic expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 24.9× against a peer median of 19.9×, 8th most expensive of 20 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 10% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +16%, so the hurdle is -6 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Mycronic stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -3.9% against -6.7% for the median peer; over one year +29.1%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
