ASML reported net profit of EUR466.3 million in 2Q 2017 on net
sales of EUR2.10 billion with a gross margin of 45%. "ASML Holding
2Q Net Profit Rises 8.1%; Sees Stronger 2H," at 0518 GMT, misstated
the 2Q 2017 figures in the second, third and fourth paragraphs. The
on-year percentage change in net profit was therefore also
incorrect in the headline and first paragraph, as was the sales
rise in the third paragraph. The correct version follows:
By Adria Calatayud
Dutch semiconductor company ASML Holding NV (ASML.AE) said
Wednesday that net profit for the second quarter rose 25%, on the
back of sales that exceeded expectations, and anticipated a
stronger second half.
Quarterly net profit was 584 million euros ($683.0 million)
compared with EUR466.3 million in the year-earlier period, ASML
said. Analysts expected the company to make a net profit of EUR529
million, according to a consensus based on forecasts by nine
analysts polled by FactSet.
Net sales for the second quarter were EUR2.74 billion, up 30%
from EUR2.10 billion in the same period last year, the company
said. The company had guided for second-quarter sales of between
EUR2.5 billion and EUR2.6 billion.
Second-quarter gross margin was 43.3% compared with 45% in the
year-earlier period, ASML said.
ASML guided for third-quarter net sales of EUR2.7 billion to
EUR2.8 billion and gross margin of between 47% and 48%. ASML also
said it expects the second half to be stronger, with improved
profitability and continued growth.
