Image: ASML Holding is falling from recent highs as its third quarter report and outlook disappointed investors.
ASML’s guidance for 2025 came in below what consensus had been looking for. 2025 net sales are now expected in the range of €30 billion and €35 billion, which compares to guidance of €30 billion to €40 billion previously and the consensus estimate of €35.94 billion. The company’s updated gross margin outlook for 2025 in the range of 51%-53% is below the 54%-56% it had previously forecast and below the consensus estimate of 53.9%. The bookings number in the third quarter coupled with lowered 2025 guidance is weighing on the stock. Though the news isn’t great, we continue to like ASML Holding as a long-term idea in the ESG Newsletter portfolio.
