Amsterdam-based ASML Holding recently released its earning reports earlier than expected, causing unsettled reactions among investors. This Dutch semiconductor manufacturing firm also revised down its 2025 sales projection to between 30 and 35 billion euros (equating to around $32.7 billion to $38.1 billion). Unfortunately, this places it in the bottom half of the original projected range, and under the analysts' consensus estimate of 36.1 billion euros, as compiled by Visible Alpha.
The announcement which was set for Wednesday appeared prematurely on the company’s website due to a technical glitch. This resulted in a considerable stock downturn, with shares of ASML dipping by over 6% on Wednesday after a hard fall of 16% on Tuesday, post the preliminary results. The company's stock was dragged into negative yield for the year on Tuesday and now currently stands at a 10% loss year-to-date.
