Why this is important: <\/h2>
Figures from semiconductor company ASM again show the growing impact of Chinese market demand on the sector. <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Technological innovation as growth engine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
This growth is partly explained by ASM’s commitment to gate-all-around (GAA) chip technology, an advanced method that increases chip efficiency. The company has big names such as Intel and TSMC among its clients, both of which have plans to implement<\/a> this technology. This is an important development as demand for high-performance chips continues to grow, driven by an increasingly connected and digital world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite restrictions on the export of the most advanced chip machines to China, the country continues to invest in the production of less advanced chips. ASM benefits from this thanks to their supply of machines used in these production processes. Continued Chinese demand has a significant share in the company’s results and looks set to continue for the first half of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The outlook for ASM is mixed. On the one hand, the company expects to benefit from continued strong demand from China in the first half of the year, but on the other hand, it anticipates a weak market that will be similar to the second half of 2023. ASM predicts<\/a> a gradual recovery in the second half of this year and a significant increase in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ASM’s strong performance in the fourth quarter of 2023, particularly due to growing demand from China, successful deployment of new technologies such as GAA, and strategic leadership changes, outlines a company that is adapting and thriving in a rapidly changing market. With cautious optimism, ASM looks to the future, focusing on recovery and growth in an industry at the center of a modern, digitized society.<\/p>\n\n\n Chip machine manufacturer ASM International (ASM) has exceeded market expectations with a strong fourth quarter. The company managed to bring in as much as 678 million euros worth of new orders, a remarkable performance mainly due to continued strong demand from China. This was announced yesterday during a presentation of figures for the final quarter […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2589,"featured_media":506673,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8553,42],"tags":[83653,8098,80816],"location":[6763],"article_type":[36684],"serie":[],"archives":[],"internal_archives":[],"reboot-archive":[82795],"class_list":["post-471346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-digital","category-sustainability-nl","tag-asm","tag-china-en","tag-halfgeleiderindustrie-2","location-netherlands","article_type-news","reboot-archive-data"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":{"subtitle":"ASM secured a record order of 678 million euros, driven mainly by continued strong demand from China.","text_display_homepage":false},"author_meta":{"display_name":"Team IO","author_link":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/author\/erikdevries\/"},"featured_img":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/asm.jpg","coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["Digital<\/a>","Sustainability<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Digital<\/span>","Sustainability<\/span>"]},"tags":{"linked":["ASM<\/a>","china<\/a>","halfgeleiderindustrie<\/a>"],"unlinked":["ASM<\/span>","china<\/span>","halfgeleiderindustrie<\/span>"]}},"comment_count":"0","relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 2 years ago","modified":"Updated 2 years ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on February 28, 2024","modified":"Updated on February 28, 2024"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on February 28, 2024 10:07 am","modified":"Updated on February 28, 2024 10:07 am"},"featured_img_caption":"","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/471346","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2589"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=471346"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/471346\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/506673"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=471346"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=471346"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=471346"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=471346"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=471346"},{"taxonomy":"serie","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/serie?post=471346"},{"taxonomy":"archives","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/archives?post=471346"},{"taxonomy":"internal_archives","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal_archives?post=471346"},{"taxonomy":"reboot-archive","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reboot-archive?post=471346"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}China’s role in ASM’s growth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
