Insights

Financial Analyst

ACM Research's Q2 2024 results demonstrate strong performance with record revenue of $202.5 million, up 40% year-over-year. The company's non-GAAP gross margin improved to 48.2%, exceeding their long-term target range of 40-45%. This indicates efficient cost management and potentially favorable product mix.

The company's raised 2024 revenue guidance to $695-$735 million and increased long-term revenue target to $3 billion reflect management's confidence in future growth. However, investors should note that operating expenses increased by 55%, outpacing revenue growth. This could pressure margins if not managed carefully in the future.

The introduction of new products like the Panel ECP Plating tool and expansion into the U.S. market are positive steps for diversification and growth. Overall, ACM's financial performance and strategic initiatives paint a positive picture for investors, but careful monitoring of expense growth is warranted.

Semiconductor Industry Expert

ACM Research's introduction of the Panel Electrochemical Plating (Ultra ECP ap-p) tool is a significant move into the growing fan-out panel-level packaging (FOPLP) market. This technology is particularly relevant for AI applications, especially in GPUs and high-bandwidth memory (HBM). The horizontal plating approach with multi-anode technology could provide ACM with a competitive edge in uniformity and precision for large panels.

The company's expansion into the U.S. market, evidenced by the purchase order from a U.S.-based foundry and the acquisition of a facility in Oregon, signals a strategic push to diversify its customer base beyond China. This could help mitigate geopolitical risks and open up new growth opportunities.

ACM's market share gains and new product cycles indicate strong execution in a competitive semiconductor equipment market. However, investors should monitor how ACM navigates potential supply chain constraints and international trade policies, which could impact future growth.

FREMONT, Calif., Aug. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ACM Research, Inc. (“ACM”) (NASDAQ: ACMR), a leading supplier of wafer processing solutions for semiconductor and advanced wafer-level packaging applications, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

"I am pleased with our second quarter results. We delivered record revenue, strong profitability and positive cash flow from operations,” said ACM’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Dr. David Wang. “We are benefiting from continued investments by our customers, and market share gains from our existing and new products. I am also thrilled to announce today our new Panel Electrochemical Plating (Ultra ECP ap-p) tool, which we believe positions ACM to participate in the growing demand for AI solutions. Our proprietary horizontal plating enables advanced packaging with sub-micron features on square panels, which is especially applicable to GPUs and high-density high bandwidth memory (HBM). We are also making good progress with our global development activities, and we recently entered into an agreement to purchase a R&D facility with a clean room in Oregon, to expand our U.S. footprint to help accelerate our new customer initiatives.”

Dr. Wang continued, "We have raised our 2024 revenue outlook to reflect continued investments by our customers, market share gains, and strong product cycles for the second half of the year. We have also taken the opportunity to raise our long-term revenue target to $3 billion based on increased confidence in our new product cycles and our international opportunities.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

ACM presents non-GAAP gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, net income attributable to ACM Research, Inc. and basic and diluted earnings per share as supplemental measures to GAAP financial measures regarding ACM’s operational performance. These supplemental measures exclude the impact of stock-based compensation, which ACM does not believe is indicative of its core operating results. In addition, non-GAAP net income attributable to ACM Research, Inc. and basic and diluted earnings per share exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and unrealized gain (loss) on short-term investments, which ACM also believes are not indicative of its core operating results. A reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below under “Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

ACM believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in assessing its operating performance. ACM uses these financial measures internally to evaluate its operating performance and for planning and forecasting of future periods. Financial analysts may focus on and publish both historical results and future projections based on the non-GAAP financial measures. ACM also believes it is in the best interests of investors for ACM to provide this non-GAAP information.

While ACM believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be reported by competitors, and they may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to differences in calculation methodologies. The non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative to GAAP information and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures. They should be used only as a supplement to GAAP information and should be considered only in conjunction with ACM’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
