Our performance demonstrates continued strong execution in an accelerating semiconductor demand environment. At our Investor Day event last year, we outlined our tremendous opportunity to expand our market and gain share at every successive technology node. Vertical scaling of device and packaging architectures is driving higher deposition and etch intensity and moving the market to our strengths. The vision we shared was to more than double Lam's revenue and profit over the next 5 years. Today, we are well on our way.์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์‹ค์ ์€ ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”๋˜๋Š” ๋ฐ˜๋„์ฒด ์ˆ˜์š” ํ™˜๊ฒฝ ์†์—์„œ ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์‹คํ–‰๋ ฅ์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ง€๋‚œํ•ด ํˆฌ์ž์ž์˜ ๋‚  ํ–‰์‚ฌ์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๋ชจ๋“  ์ฐจ์„ธ๋Œ€ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ๋…ธ๋“œ์—์„œ ์‹œ์žฅ์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ๋†’์ผ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์—„์ฒญ๋‚œ ๊ธฐํšŒ๋ฅผ ์ œ์‹œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋””๋ฐ”์ด์Šค ๋ฐ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง• ์•„ํ‚คํ…์ฒ˜์˜ ์ˆ˜์ง ์Šค์ผ€์ผ๋ง์€ ์ฆ์ฐฉ ๋ฐ ์‹๊ฐ ์ง‘์•ฝ๋„๋ฅผ ๋†’์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์‹œ์žฅ์„ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๊ฐ•์  ์˜์—ญ์œผ๋กœ ์ด๋™์‹œํ‚ค๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๊ณต์œ ํ•œ ๋น„์ „์€ ํ–ฅํ›„ 5๋…„๊ฐ„ ๋žจ๋ฆฌ์„œ์น˜์˜ ๋งค์ถœ๊ณผ ์ด์ต์„ ๋‘ ๋ฐฐ ์ด์ƒ ๋Š˜๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ค๋Š˜๋‚  ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๊ทธ ๋ชฉํ‘œ๋ฅผ ํ–ฅํ•ด ์ˆœ์กฐ๋กญ๊ฒŒ ๋‚˜์•„๊ฐ€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
With the industry ramping capacity and adopting new technologies to meet the demands of the AI transformation, Lam's deposition and etch capabilities are proving to be key enablers in the transition to gate all around transistors, backside power deposition, high-performance materials and 3D advanced packaging. We prepared for this moment, launching an array of new products and advanced services targeted at broadening our exposure across DRAM, leading-edge foundry/logic and NAND. We have also invested in expanding our manufacturing and R&D footprint to increase operational velocity in response to strong customer demand.์—…๊ณ„๊ฐ€ AI ํ˜์‹ ์˜ ์š”๊ตฌ์‚ฌํ•ญ์„ ์ถฉ์กฑํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์‹ ๊ธฐ์ˆ ์„ ๋„์ž…ํ•จ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ, Lam์˜ ์ฆ์ฐฉ ๋ฐ ์‹๊ฐ ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰์ด GAA(Gate All Around) ํŠธ๋žœ์ง€์Šคํ„ฐ, ํ›„๋ฉด ์ „๋ ฅ ์ฆ์ฐฉ, ๊ณ ์„ฑ๋Šฅ ์†Œ์žฌ ๋ฐ 3D ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•์œผ๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ™˜์„ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•˜๊ฒŒ ํ•˜๋Š” ํ•ต์‹ฌ ์š”์†Œ์ž„์ด ์ž…์ฆ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์ด ์ˆœ๊ฐ„์„ ๋Œ€๋น„ํ•˜์—ฌ DRAM, ์ตœ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง ๋ฐ NAND ์ „๋ฐ˜์— ๊ฑธ์ณ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๋…ธ์ถœ๋„๋ฅผ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์„ ๋ชฉํ‘œ๋กœ ํ•˜๋Š” ์ผ๋ จ์˜ ์‹ ์ œํ’ˆ๊ณผ ๊ณ ๊ธ‰ ์„œ๋น„์Šค๋ฅผ ์ถœ์‹œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์ˆ˜์š”์— ๋Œ€์‘ํ•˜์—ฌ ์šด์˜ ์†๋„๋ฅผ ๋†’์ด๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ์ œ์กฐ ๋ฐ R&D ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ํ™•์žฅ์— ํˆฌ์žํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
In 2025, we achieved record revenues of more than $20 billion and expanded our served available market, or SAM, share of WFE into the mid-30s percent range. This marks solid progress for our multiyear goal of being in the high 30s. Our ship share of WFE grew by well over 1 percentage point year-on-year, and our CSBG business hit key milestones with the size of our installed base topping 100,000 chambers and revenue growing faster than the increase in installed base units. We are proud of these accomplishments, but there's even more to come. The AI transformation is driving industry spending higher. In 2025, WFE came in close to $110 billion.2025๋…„์— ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” 200์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ด์ƒ์˜ ๊ธฐ๋ก์ ์ธ ๋งค์ถœ์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, WFE ๋Œ€๋น„ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์„œ๋น„์Šค ๊ฐ€๋Šฅ ์‹œ์žฅ(SAM) ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ 30% ์ค‘๋ฐ˜๋Œ€๋กœ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” 30% ํ›„๋ฐ˜๋Œ€๋ผ๋Š” ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๋‹ค๋…„๊ฐ„ ๋ชฉํ‘œ๋ฅผ ํ–ฅํ•œ ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ์ง„์ „์„ ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋ƒ…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Our initial 2026 view is for WFE to be in the $135 billion range, with the growth in spending remaining constrained by a shortage of available clean room space. Chip makers have been public about their efforts to alleviate constraints, but they have also commented on sold-out conditions persisting, indicating the magnitude of the challenge. We expect WFE this year to be weighted to the second half with robust growth in investments across all 3 device segments, led by DRAM and leading-edge foundry/logic. All indications are that we are still in the early stages of the AI build-out.์ €ํฌ์˜ ์ดˆ๊ธฐ 2026๋…„ ์ „๋ง์€ WFE๊ฐ€ ์•ฝ 1,350์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ด ๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ง€์ถœ ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋Š” ๊ฐ€์šฉ ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„ ๋ถ€์กฑ์œผ๋กœ ์ธํ•ด ์ œ์•ฝ์„ ๋ฐ›์„ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์นฉ ์ œ์กฐ์—…์ฒด๋“ค์€ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ œ์•ฝ์„ ์™„ํ™”ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•œ ๋…ธ๋ ฅ์„ ๊ณต๊ฐœ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ฐํ˜€์™”์ง€๋งŒ, ๋™์‹œ์— ๋งค์ง„ ์ƒํƒœ๊ฐ€ ์ง€์†๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ•˜์—ฌ ์ด ๋ฌธ์ œ์˜ ์‹ฌ๊ฐ์„ฑ์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ฌํ•ด WFE๋Š” ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ์— ์ง‘์ค‘๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๋ฉฐ, DRAM๊ณผ ์ตœ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง์ด ์ฃผ๋„ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฐ€์šด๋ฐ 3๊ฐœ ๋””๋ฐ”์ด์Šค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ ์ „๋ฐ˜์— ๊ฑธ์ณ ํˆฌ์ž๊ฐ€ ๊ฒฌ์กฐํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์„ฑ์žฅํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ชจ๋“  ์ง€ํ‘œ๋“ค์€ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ AI ๊ตฌ์ถ•์˜ ์ดˆ๊ธฐ ๋‹จ๊ณ„์— ์žˆ์Œ์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
End markets are signaling a strong appetite for greater compute and storage capability at both the device and package level. In foundry/logic, customers are accelerating migration to nodes employing gate-all-around transistors. If you recall, we previously said that the transition to gate-all-around equates to roughly $1 billion in incremental Lam SAM for every 100,000 wafer starts per month of capacity. Given the 3D nature of gate-all-around structures, we are well positioned with our deposition and etch portfolio to gain share within this segment. In addition, customers are integrating more functionality with advanced packaging.์ตœ์ข… ์‹œ์žฅ๋“ค์€ ๋””๋ฐ”์ด์Šค์™€ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง€ ๋ ˆ๋ฒจ ๋ชจ๋‘์—์„œ ๋” ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์ปดํ“จํŒ… ๋ฐ ์Šคํ† ๋ฆฌ์ง€ ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ฐ•ํ•œ ์ˆ˜์š”๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์€ GAA(Gate-All-Around) ํŠธ๋žœ์ง€์Šคํ„ฐ๋ฅผ ์ฑ„ํƒํ•˜๋Š” ๋…ธ๋“œ๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ™˜์„ ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ „์— ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๊ฒƒ์„ ์ƒ๊ธฐํ•˜์‹œ๋ฉด, GAA๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ™˜์€ ์›” 10๋งŒ ์›จ์ดํผ ์ƒ์‚ฐ ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ๋‹น ์•ฝ 10์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜ Lam SAM ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋ถ„์— ํ•ด๋‹นํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

We previously estimated advanced packaging would make up a mid-single-digit percentage of overall foundry/logic equipment spend. As additional devices, including those for mobile applications, adopt more complex packaging schemes, we see this number moving higher. In high-bandwidth memory, or HBM, advanced packaging is critical for the transition to HBM4 and 4E and stacking of up to 16 layers. Lam is in an excellent position, given our market leadership in electroplating and TSV etch. We expect our overall advanced packaging business to grow more than 40% in 2026, outperforming our view of WFE growth in this space.์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์ด์ „์— ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•์ด ์ „์ฒด ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง ์žฅ๋น„ ์ง€์ถœ์—์„œ ์ค‘๊ฐ„ ํ•œ ์ž๋ฆฟ์ˆ˜ ๋น„์œจ์„ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ชจ๋ฐ”์ผ ์• ํ”Œ๋ฆฌ์ผ€์ด์…˜์šฉ ์ œํ’ˆ์„ ํฌํ•จํ•œ ์ถ”๊ฐ€ ๋””๋ฐ”์ด์Šค๋“ค์ด ๋”์šฑ ๋ณต์žกํ•œ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง• ๋ฐฉ์‹์„ ์ฑ„ํƒํ•จ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ, ์ด ๋น„์œจ์ด ๋” ๋†’์•„์งˆ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๋Œ€์—ญํญ ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ(HBM)์—์„œ๋Š” HBM4 ๋ฐ 4E๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ™˜๊ณผ ์ตœ๋Œ€ 16์ธต ์ ์ธต์„ ์œ„ํ•ด ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•์ด ๋งค์šฐ ์ค‘์š”ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Finally, in NAND, demand is growing faster than previously expected as new use spaces for high-capacity SSDs emerge. Non-volatile context memory layers to enable large-scale AI inference have the potential to add incremental growth in NAND bit demand. For every $2 million to $3 million accelerators sold, we estimate an incremental 1 point increase in overall NAND bit demand growth. Lam has the industry's largest installed base of NAND systems and is well positioned to outperform as the NAND market inflects higher. Against this backdrop of strong semiconductor demand and accelerated technology transitions, we are seeing increased momentum for our newly launched products.๋งˆ์ง€๋ง‰์œผ๋กœ NAND์˜ ๊ฒฝ์šฐ, ๋Œ€์šฉ๋Ÿ‰ SSD์˜ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ์‚ฌ์šฉ์ฒ˜๊ฐ€ ๋“ฑ์žฅํ•˜๋ฉด์„œ ์ˆ˜์š”๊ฐ€ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ณด๋‹ค ๋น ๋ฅด๊ฒŒ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋Œ€๊ทœ๋ชจ AI ์ถ”๋ก ์„ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•˜๊ฒŒ ํ•˜๋Š” ๋น„ํœ˜๋ฐœ์„ฑ ์ปจํ…์ŠคํŠธ ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ ๋ ˆ์ด์–ด๋Š” NAND ๋น„ํŠธ ์ˆ˜์š”์— ์ถ”๊ฐ€์ ์ธ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ๊ฐ€์ ธ์˜ฌ ์ž ์žฌ๋ ฅ์„ ๊ฐ€์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ฐ€์†๊ธฐ๊ฐ€ 200๋งŒ~300๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์–ด์น˜ ํŒ๋งค๋  ๋•Œ๋งˆ๋‹ค, ์ „์ฒด NAND ๋น„ํŠธ ์ˆ˜์š” ์„ฑ์žฅ๋ฅ ์ด 1%ํฌ์ธํŠธ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์ถ”์ •ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Akara, our latest generation conductor etch system, has doubled its installed base over the past year, with production tool of record wins for EUV and high aspect ratio etch applications in advanced DRAM and foundry/logic. Critical dimensions in foundry/logic are shrinking by roughly 10% to 20% node to node. Similarly, in DRAM, aspect ratios are increasing with each node and process complexity is set to grow even more with future moves to [ 4F square ] and 3D DRAM. Consequently, multiple customers have chosen Akara for its unmatched ability to etch the smallest dimensions at very high aspect ratios while maintaining profile control and reducing variability across the wafer.์•„์นด๋ผ(Akara)๋Š” ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์ตœ์‹  ์„ธ๋Œ€ ๋„์ฒด ์‹๊ฐ ์‹œ์Šคํ…œ์œผ๋กœ, ์ง€๋‚œ 1๋…„๊ฐ„ ์„ค์น˜ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜์ด ๋‘ ๋ฐฐ๋กœ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ฒจ๋‹จ DRAM ๋ฐ ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ EUV ๋ฐ ๊ณ ์ข…ํšก๋น„ ์‹๊ฐ ์• ํ”Œ๋ฆฌ์ผ€์ด์…˜์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์–‘์‚ฐ ์žฅ๋น„ ์„ ์ •(tool of record) ์Šน๋ฆฌ๋ฅผ ๊ฑฐ๋‘์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง์—์„œ ์ž„๊ณ„ ์น˜์ˆ˜(CD)๋Š” ๋…ธ๋“œ ๊ฐ„ ์•ฝ 10%์—์„œ 20%์”ฉ ์ถ•์†Œ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งˆ์ฐฌ๊ฐ€์ง€๋กœ DRAM์—์„œ๋Š” ๊ฐ ๋…ธ๋“œ๋งˆ๋‹ค ์ข…ํšก๋น„๊ฐ€ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ํ–ฅํ›„ 4Fยฒ ๋ฐ 3D DRAM์œผ๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ™˜์œผ๋กœ ๊ณต์ • ๋ณต์žก์„ฑ์ด ๋”์šฑ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“ค์ด ์•„์นด๋ผ๋ฅผ ์„ ํƒํ–ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์›จ์ดํผ ์ „์ฒด์—์„œ ํ”„๋กœํŒŒ์ผ ์ œ์–ด๋ฅผ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ณ  ๋ณ€๋™์„ฑ์„ ์ค„์ด๋ฉด์„œ ๋งค์šฐ ๋†’์€ ์ข…ํšก๋น„์—์„œ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ์ž‘์€ ์น˜์ˆ˜๋ฅผ ์‹๊ฐํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋น„ํ•  ๋ฐ ์—†๋Š” ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
This is achieved through new innovations, including our direct drive solid-state power delivery hardware and tempo plasma pulsing. In next-generation gate-all-around devices, we expect the number of applications using Akara to grow by roughly 2x, including wins for critical front-end silicon etch applications. In DRAM, we already have wins with Akara for the [ 1z ] node that are set to ramp this year and expect growing momentum as the applications using Akara expand nearly 3x in a subsequent 1z node. As we look out over a multiyear period, the unprecedented AI ramp demands greater speed and agility across the ecosystem.์ด๋Š” ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์ง์ ‘ ๊ตฌ๋™ ๊ณ ์ฒด ์ƒํƒœ ์ „๋ ฅ ๊ณต๊ธ‰ ํ•˜๋“œ์›จ์–ด์™€ ํ…œํฌ ํ”Œ๋ผ์ฆˆ๋งˆ ํŽ„์‹ฑ์„ ํฌํ•จํ•œ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ํ˜์‹ ์„ ํ†ตํ•ด ๋‹ฌ์„ฑ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฐจ์„ธ๋Œ€ ๊ฒŒ์ดํŠธ ์˜ฌ ์–ด๋ผ์šด๋“œ(GAA) ์†Œ์ž์—์„œ๋Š” ์ค‘์š”ํ•œ ์ „๋‹จ ์‹ค๋ฆฌ์ฝ˜ ์‹๊ฐ ์• ํ”Œ๋ฆฌ์ผ€์ด์…˜์—์„œ์˜ ์ˆ˜์ฃผ๋ฅผ ํฌํ•จํ•˜์—ฌ Akara๋ฅผ ์‚ฌ์šฉํ•˜๋Š” ์• ํ”Œ๋ฆฌ์ผ€์ด์…˜ ์ˆ˜๊ฐ€ ์•ฝ 2๋ฐฐ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Our revenue was above the midpoint of guidance, while gross margin, operating margin and earnings per share all exceeded the high end of our guided range. Revenue for the December quarter was a record coming in at $5.34 billion. This marked our tenth consecutive quarter of revenue growth. The deferred revenue balance at quarter end came in at $2.25 billion, down sequentially due to an approximately $500 million reduction in those customer advanced down payments. From a market segment perspective, foundry accounted for 59% of our systems revenue in the December quarter, slightly down sequentially, but up from 35% in the December 2024 period.๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ๋งค์ถœ์€ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ์ค‘๊ฐ„๊ฐ’์„ ์ƒํšŒํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๋งค์ถœ์ด์ด์ต๋ฅ , ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ  ๋ฐ ์ฃผ๋‹น์ˆœ์ด์ต์€ ๋ชจ๋‘ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ์ƒ๋‹จ์„ ์ดˆ๊ณผ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋งค์ถœ์€ 53์–ต 4์ฒœ๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ ์‚ฌ์ƒ ์ตœ๊ณ ์น˜๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” 10๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์—ฐ์† ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์˜๋ฏธํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋ง ์ด์—ฐ๋งค์ถœ ์ž”์•ก์€ 22์–ต 5์ฒœ๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ, ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์„ ์ˆ˜๊ธˆ์ด ์•ฝ 5์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ฐ์†Œํ•˜๋ฉด์„œ ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ํ•˜๋ฝํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

This underscores the success of our strategic focus and execution in Foundry. Foundry strength came from investments at the leading edge in addition to mature node spending that we saw in China. Memory was 34% of systems revenue, in line with the prior quarter. Within Memory, we generated record DRAM revenue accounting for 23% of systems revenue, which was up from 16% in the September quarter. Investments in high-bandwidth memory continue to remain strong, driven by movement to HBM3E and 4. We also saw traditional node migrations to the 1B and 1C nodes, enabling the transition to DDR5. Nonvolatile memory contributed 11% of our systems revenue, down from 18% in September quarter.์ด๋Š” ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์ „๋žต์  ์ง‘์ค‘๊ณผ ์‹คํ–‰์˜ ์„ฑ๊ณต์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ค๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๊ฐ•์„ธ๋Š” ์ตœ์ฒจ๋‹จ ๊ธฐ์ˆ ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํˆฌ์ž์™€ ๋”๋ถˆ์–ด ์ค‘๊ตญ์—์„œ ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋‚œ ์„ฑ์ˆ™ ๋…ธ๋“œ ์ง€์ถœ์—์„œ ๋น„๋กฏ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์‹œ์Šคํ…œ ๋งค์ถœ์˜ 34%๋ฅผ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์ „ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์™€ ๋™์ผํ•œ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ ๋‚ด์—์„œ DRAM์€ ์‹œ์Šคํ…œ ๋งค์ถœ์˜ 23%๋ฅผ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ•˜๋ฉฐ ๊ธฐ๋ก์ ์ธ ๋งค์ถœ์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” 9์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์˜ 16%์—์„œ ์ƒ์Šนํ•œ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๋Œ€์—ญํญ ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํˆฌ์ž๋Š” HBM3E ๋ฐ 4์„ธ๋Œ€๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ™˜์— ํž˜์ž…์–ด ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ๊ฐ•์„ธ๋ฅผ ์œ ์ง€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ 1B ๋ฐ 1C ๋…ธ๋“œ๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ†ต์ ์ธ ๋…ธ๋“œ ๋งˆ์ด๊ทธ๋ ˆ์ด์…˜์„ ํ†ตํ•ด DDR5๋กœ์˜ ์ „ํ™˜์ด ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•ด์กŒ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋น„ํœ˜๋ฐœ์„ฑ ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์‹œ์Šคํ…œ ๋งค์ถœ์˜ 11%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ์—ฌํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” 9์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์˜ 18%์—์„œ ๊ฐ์†Œํ•œ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
This trajectory was in line with our expectations for customer plans coming into the year. Despite the quarterly decline, NAND revenues grew strongly for Lam in what was the first half weighted calendar year 2025. As we enter 2026, we see solid end market demand as customers prepare for their next stage of AI-driven growth in NAND. And finally, the Logic and Other segment came in at 7% of systems revenue in the December quarter, slightly up sequentially. Let's turn to the regional breakdown of our total revenue. China came in at 35%, which was a decrease from the prior quarter level of 43%, but slightly higher than our original expectations.์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ถ”์„ธ๋Š” ์—ฐ์ดˆ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๊ณ„ํš์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๊ณผ ์ผ์น˜ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋ณ„ ๊ฐ์†Œ์—๋„ ๋ถˆ๊ตฌํ•˜๊ณ , 2025๋…„ ์ƒ๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ ์ง‘์ค‘ํ˜• ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์—์„œ Lam์˜ NAND ๋งค์ถœ์€ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์„ฑ์žฅํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2026๋…„์— ์ ‘์–ด๋“ค๋ฉด์„œ, ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด AI ์ฃผ๋„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์˜ ๋‹ค์Œ ๋‹จ๊ณ„๋ฅผ ์ค€๋น„ํ•จ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ NAND์˜ ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ์ตœ์ข… ์‹œ์žฅ ์ˆ˜์š”๋ฅผ ํ™•์ธํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งˆ์ง€๋ง‰์œผ๋กœ, Logic ๋ฐ ๊ธฐํƒ€ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์€ 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์‹œ์Šคํ…œ ๋งค์ถœ์˜ 7%๋ฅผ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ „ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์†Œํญ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ œ ์ด ๋งค์ถœ์˜ ์ง€์—ญ๋ณ„ ๋ถ„์„์œผ๋กœ ๋„˜์–ด๊ฐ€๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ค‘๊ตญ์€ 35%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์ „ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ 43% ์ˆ˜์ค€์—์„œ ๊ฐ์†Œํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์ด์ง€๋งŒ, ๋‹น์ดˆ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ณด๋‹ค๋Š” ์•ฝ๊ฐ„ ๋†’์€ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
This was due to updates in the affiliate rule and the resulting timing of shipments from that. The next largest geographic concentrations were Taiwan, coming in at 20%, up sequentially from 19%; and Korea at 20%, up sequentially from 15%. Customer Support Business Group generated approximately $2 billion in revenue for the December quarter, up 12% sequentially on an increase in Reliant Systems. We were 14% higher than the same period in 2024, primarily on growth in spares. CSBG obviously remains a key part of our growth strategy with our expanding installed base and innovation in advanced services. NAND spending enabled record upgrade revenue in 2025, up more than 90% year-over-year.์ด๋Š” ์ œํœด ๊ทœ์ • ์—…๋ฐ์ดํŠธ์™€ ๊ทธ๋กœ ์ธํ•œ ์ถœํ•˜ ์‹œ๊ธฐ ๋ณ€ํ™” ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค์Œ์œผ๋กœ ํฐ ์ง€์—ญ๋ณ„ ๋น„์ค‘์€ ๋Œ€๋งŒ์ด 20%๋กœ ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ 19%์—์„œ ์ƒ์Šนํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ํ•œ๊ตญ์€ 20%๋กœ ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ 15%์—์„œ ์ƒ์Šนํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ง€์›์‚ฌ์—…๋ถ€(Customer Support Business Group)๋Š” 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ์•ฝ 20์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜ ๋งค์ถœ์„ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” Reliant Systems ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋กœ ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 12% ์ƒ์Šนํ•œ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2024๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„๋กœ๋Š” ์ฃผ๋กœ ๋ถ€ํ’ˆ(spares) ์„ฑ์žฅ์— ํž˜์ž…์–ด 14% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

In the 13 years since we brought Lam Novellus together, I'd like to remind everybody that CSBG has grown every year except for 1. Let's look to profitability. Gross margin in the December quarter was 49.7%, which exceeded the high end of our guided range on better-than-expected customer mix. Sequentially, gross margin was about 1 percentage point lower, reflecting a customer mix that was less favorable than what we saw in September. Operating expenses for December came in at $827 million, which is roughly flat sequentially. R&D accounted for 68% of the total operating expenses.๋žจ ๋…ธ๋ฒจ๋Ÿฌ์Šค(Lam Novellus)๋ฅผ ํ†ตํ•ฉํ•œ ์ดํ›„ 13๋…„ ๋™์•ˆ, CSBG๋Š” ๋‹จ ํ•œ ํ•ด๋ฅผ ์ œ์™ธํ•˜๊ณ  ๋งค๋…„ ์„ฑ์žฅํ–ˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์„ ๋ชจ๋‘์—๊ฒŒ ์ƒ๊ธฐ์‹œํ‚ค๊ณ  ์‹ถ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ œ ์ˆ˜์ต์„ฑ์„ ์‚ดํŽด๋ณด๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋งค์ถœ์ด์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ 49.7%๋กœ, ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ณด๋‹ค ์–‘ํ˜ธํ•œ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๋ฏน์Šค์— ํž˜์ž…์–ด ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ์ƒ๋‹จ์„ ์ƒํšŒํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„๋กœ๋Š” ๋งค์ถœ์ด์ด์ต๋ฅ ์ด ์•ฝ 1%ํฌ์ธํŠธ ํ•˜๋ฝํ–ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” 9์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ๋น„ํ•ด ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๋ฏน์Šค๊ฐ€ ๋œ ์œ ๋ฆฌํ–ˆ๋˜ ๊ฒƒ์„ ๋ฐ˜์˜ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 12์›” ์˜์—…๋น„์šฉ์€ 8์–ต 2,700๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ ์ „๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ๊ฑฐ์˜ ๋ณดํ•ฉ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฐ๊ตฌ๊ฐœ๋ฐœ๋น„๋Š” ์ „์ฒด ์˜์—…๋น„์šฉ์˜ 68%๋ฅผ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
We continue investing to maintain our leadership with a differentiated product portfolio for our customers with innovations like Vantex, Akara, Halo and Dextro, the December quarter operating margin was 34.3%, exceeding the high end of our guidance. The non-GAAP tax rate for the quarter came in at 13.2%, generally in line with our expectations. We continue to see the tax rate in the low to mid-teens for calendar 2026. Other income and expense for the December quarter was approximately $10 million in income compared with $8 million in income in the September quarter. Slight fluctuation in OI&E was primarily the result of gains in our venture portfolio, partly offset by lower interest income.์ €ํฌ๋Š” Vantex, Akara, Halo, Dextro์™€ ๊ฐ™์€ ํ˜์‹  ์ œํ’ˆ๋“ค์„ ํ†ตํ•ด ์ฐจ๋ณ„ํ™”๋œ ์ œํ’ˆ ํฌํŠธํด๋ฆฌ์˜ค๋กœ ๋ฆฌ๋”์‹ญ์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•œ ํˆฌ์ž๋ฅผ ์ง€์†ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ 34.3%๋กœ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ์ƒ๋‹จ์„ ์ƒํšŒํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ถ„๊ธฐ non-GAAP ์„ธ์œจ์€ 13.2%๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ์น˜์™€ ๋Œ€์ฒด๋กœ ์ผ์น˜ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2026๋…„ ์„ธ์œจ์€ 10% ์ค‘๋ฐ˜๋Œ€์—์„œ ์œ ์ง€๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๊ณ„์† ์ „๋งํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๊ธฐํƒ€์†์ต์€ ์•ฝ 1,000๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜ ์ˆ˜์ต์„ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” 9์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์˜ 800๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ˆ˜์ต๊ณผ ๋น„๊ต๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ธฐํƒ€์†์ต์˜ ์†Œํญ ๋ณ€๋™์€ ์ฃผ๋กœ ๋ฒค์ฒ˜ ํฌํŠธํด๋ฆฌ์˜ค์˜ ์ด์ต์ด ์ด์ž์ˆ˜์ต ๊ฐ์†Œ๋กœ ์ผ๋ถ€ ์ƒ์‡„๋œ ๊ฒฐ๊ณผ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
As we've talked about in the past, you should expect to see variability in OI&E quarter-to-quarter. Capital return in the December quarter, we allocated approximately $1.4 billion towards share buybacks through open market share repurchases. Our average buyback price in the quarter was approximately $154 per share. In calendar year 2025, we repurchased approximately 39 million shares at an average price of $104 per share. We also paid $328 million in dividends in the quarter. In calendar year 2025, we returned 85% of our free cash flow. Our plans remain to return at least 85% of free cash flow to our shareholders over time.๊ณผ๊ฑฐ์— ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๋ฐ”์™€ ๊ฐ™์ด, ์˜์—…์™ธ์†์ต(OI&E)์€ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋ณ„๋กœ ๋ณ€๋™์„ฑ์„ ๋ณด์ผ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜์…”์•ผ ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ž๋ณธ ํ™˜์›๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•˜์—ฌ, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๊ณต๊ฐœ์‹œ์žฅ ์ž์‚ฌ์ฃผ ๋งค์ž…์„ ํ†ตํ•ด ์•ฝ 14์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ์ž์‚ฌ์ฃผ ๋งค์ž…์— ๋ฐฐ๋ถ„ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ค‘ ํ‰๊ท  ์ž์‚ฌ์ฃผ ๋งค์ž… ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ์€ ์ฃผ๋‹น ์•ฝ 154๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜€์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2025 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์—๋Š” ํ‰๊ท  ์ฃผ๋‹น 104๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ์œผ๋กœ ์•ฝ 3,900๋งŒ ์ฃผ๋ฅผ ๋งค์ž…ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ค‘ 3์–ต 2,800๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜ ๋ฐฐ๋‹น๊ธˆ์„ ์ง€๊ธ‰ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2025 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์— ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์ž‰์—ฌํ˜„๊ธˆํ๋ฆ„์˜ 85%๋ฅผ ์ฃผ์ฃผ์—๊ฒŒ ํ™˜์›ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๊ณ„ํš์€ ์•ž์œผ๋กœ๋„ ์ž‰์—ฌํ˜„๊ธˆํ๋ฆ„์˜ ์ตœ์†Œ 85%๋ฅผ ์ฃผ์ฃผ๋“ค์—๊ฒŒ ํ™˜์›ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
The December quarter diluted earnings per share were $1.27, which came in above the guidance range. The diluted share count was 1.26 billion shares, which was a reduction from the September quarter and consistent with our guidance. We have $5.1 billion remaining on our Board-authorized share repurchase plan. Let me tie into the balance sheet. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $6.2 billion at the end of the December quarter, a decrease from $6.7 billion at the end of the September quarter.

As we look ahead, our strong cash position and continued free cash flow enable us flexibility to potentially simply repay the $750 million March 2026 notes when they mature. Days sales outstanding was 59 days in the December quarter, a decrease from 62 days in the September quarter. Inventory turns improved to 2.7x from 2.6x in the prior quarter and up from 1.5x a little over 2 years ago. As a company, we remain focused on asset utilization, and we were pleased by the sustained progress we continue to make. Our noncash expenses in the December quarter included approximately $89 million for equity compensation, $91 million for depreciation and $13 million in amortization.์•ž์œผ๋กœ๋ฅผ ์ „๋งํ•  ๋•Œ, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ํ˜„๊ธˆ ํฌ์ง€์…˜๊ณผ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ์ž‰์—ฌํ˜„๊ธˆํ๋ฆ„์€ 2026๋…„ 3์›” ๋งŒ๊ธฐ 7์–ต 5์ฒœ๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ฑ„๊ถŒ์„ ๋งŒ๊ธฐ ์‹œ ๋‹จ์ˆœํžˆ ์ƒํ™˜ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์œ ์—ฐ์„ฑ์„ ์ œ๊ณตํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์ถœ์ฑ„๊ถŒํšŒ์ˆ˜๊ธฐ๊ฐ„(DSO)์€ 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— 59์ผ๋กœ, 9์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์˜ 62์ผ์—์„œ ๊ฐ์†Œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์žฌ๊ณ ์ž์‚ฐํšŒ์ „์œจ์€ ์ „ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ 2.6๋ฐฐ์—์„œ 2.7๋ฐฐ๋กœ ๊ฐœ์„ ๋˜์—ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, 2๋…„ ์กฐ๊ธˆ ์ „์˜ 1.5๋ฐฐ์—์„œ ์ƒ์Šนํ•œ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํšŒ์‚ฌ๋กœ์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์ž์‚ฐ ํ™œ์šฉ๋„์— ๊ณ„์† ์ง‘์ค‘ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ด๋ฃจ์–ด์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ์ง„์ „์— ๋งŒ์กฑํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์˜ ๋น„ํ˜„๊ธˆ์„ฑ ๋น„์šฉ์—๋Š” ์ฃผ์‹๋ณด์ƒ ์•ฝ 8,900๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ, ๊ฐ๊ฐ€์ƒ๊ฐ 9,100๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ, ๋ฌดํ˜•์ž์‚ฐ์ƒ๊ฐ 1,300๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๊ฐ€ ํฌํ•จ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Capital expenditures for the December quarter was $261 million, which was up $76 million from the September quarter. Spending was driven by investments in manufacturing capacity, R&D and lab infrastructure that supports our technology roadmap and customer needs. We also purchased a new building in Arizona to support the growing industry footprint there. This capital spending remains consistent with our global strategy of expanding capabilities close to where our customers are.

We ended the December quarter with approximately 19,700 regular full-time employees, which was an increase of approximately 300 people from the prior quarter. Headcount increases were primarily within the field organization to support customer growth as well as in R&D to support our long-term product roadmap. Let's turn to our non-GAAP guidance for the March 2026 quarter. We're expecting revenue of $5.7 billion, plus or minus $300 million. We're expecting gross margin of 49%, plus or minus 1 percentage point. We're expecting to see slight headwinds from customer mix. We're forecasting operating margins of 34%, plus or minus 1 percentage point.12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋ง ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ ์ •๊ทœ ์ •์ง์›์€ ์•ฝ 19,700๋ช…์œผ๋กœ, ์ „ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์•ฝ 300๋ช… ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ธ๋ ฅ ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋Š” ์ฃผ๋กœ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์ง€์›ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•œ ํ˜„์žฅ ์กฐ์ง๊ณผ ์žฅ๊ธฐ ์ œํ’ˆ ๋กœ๋“œ๋งต์„ ์ง€์›ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•œ R&D ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ์ด๋ฃจ์–ด์กŒ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2026๋…„ 3์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ non-GAAP ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋กœ ๋„˜์–ด๊ฐ€๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์ถœ์€ 57์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์— ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค๋งˆ์ด๋„ˆ์Šค 3์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์ถœ์ด์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ 49%์— ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค๋งˆ์ด๋„ˆ์Šค 1%ํฌ์ธํŠธ๋ฅผ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๋ฏน์Šค๋กœ ์ธํ•œ ์†Œํญ์˜ ์—ญํ’์ด ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ 34%์— ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค๋งˆ์ด๋„ˆ์Šค 1%ํฌ์ธํŠธ๋ฅผ ์ „๋งํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
You'll see the normal seasonal uptick in operating expenses in the March quarter. And finally, we're forecasting earnings per share of $1.35, plus or minus $0.10, based on a share count of approximately 1.26 billion shares. So let me wrap up. We delivered a record year in 2025, reflecting strong execution and broad-based strength across our product portfolio. As we look into 2026, we expect meaningful year-over-year growth supported by sustained demand in AI-driven markets and continued investment in capacity. We agree with the prevailing view that much of the market will be undersupplied in 2026 due to clean room space constraints.3์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ์˜์—…๋น„์šฉ์ด ๊ณ„์ ˆ์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ •์ƒ์ ์ธ ์ฆ๊ฐ€์„ธ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ผ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งˆ์ง€๋ง‰์œผ๋กœ, ์•ฝ 12์–ต 6์ฒœ๋งŒ ์ฃผ์˜ ์ฃผ์‹ ์ˆ˜๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ ์ฃผ๋‹น์ˆœ์ด์ต์€ 1.35๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ, ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค ๋งˆ์ด๋„ˆ์Šค 0.10๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ์ „๋งํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ œ ๋งˆ๋ฌด๋ฆฌํ•˜๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” 2025๋…„ ๊ธฐ๋ก์ ์ธ ํ•œ ํ•ด๋ฅผ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์‹คํ–‰๋ ฅ๊ณผ ์ œํ’ˆ ํฌํŠธํด๋ฆฌ์˜ค ์ „๋ฐ˜์— ๊ฑธ์นœ ๊ด‘๋ฒ”์œ„ํ•œ ๊ฐ•์„ธ๋ฅผ ๋ฐ˜์˜ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2026๋…„์„ ์ „๋งํ•˜๋ฉด, AI ์ฃผ๋„ ์‹œ์žฅ์˜ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ์ˆ˜์š”์™€ ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ํˆฌ์ž์— ํž˜์ž…์–ด ์˜๋ฏธ ์žˆ๋Š” ์ „๋…„ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ๊ธฐ๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„ ์ œ์•ฝ์œผ๋กœ ์ธํ•ด 2026๋…„์— ์‹œ์žฅ์˜ ์ƒ๋‹น ๋ถ€๋ถ„์ด ๊ณต๊ธ‰ ๋ถ€์กฑ ์ƒํƒœ๊ฐ€ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ผ๋Š” ์ผ๋ฐ˜์ ์ธ ๊ฒฌํ•ด์— ๋™์˜ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Timothy Arcuri: UBS Investment Bank, Research Division Doug, I had a question about WFE this year. So you said we're going to be constrained because of this fab readiness. Is it possible to say how much? I know you're guiding WFE to 135 this year. I mean if we use semiconductor revenue and you assume sort of a normal WFE intensity number, it seems like you can get to like 150. So maybe the constraints are costing the industry like $15 billion. Is it possible to give a number in terms of how much the constraints are kind of costing in terms of WFE this year so we can kind of pro forma that out?**Timothy Arcuri:** ์˜ฌํ•ด WFE์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์งˆ๋ฌธ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŒน ์ค€๋น„ ์ƒํ™ฉ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์— ์ œ์•ฝ์ด ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ผ๊ณ  ๋ง์”€ํ•˜์…จ๋Š”๋ฐ์š”. ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์œผ๋กœ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๋˜๋Š”์ง€ ๋ง์”€ํ•ด ์ฃผ์‹ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„๊นŒ์š”? ์˜ฌํ•ด WFE๋ฅผ 135์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ํ•˜์‹  ๊ฑธ๋กœ ์•Œ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ฐ˜๋„์ฒด ๋งค์ถœ์„ ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ ์ •์ƒ์ ์ธ WFE ์ง‘์•ฝ๋„(WFE intensity) ์ˆ˜์น˜๋ฅผ ์ ์šฉํ•˜๋ฉด ์•ฝ 150์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ •๋„๊นŒ์ง€ ๋„๋‹ฌํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์€๋ฐ์š”. ๊ทธ๋ ‡๋‹ค๋ฉด ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ œ์•ฝ์œผ๋กœ ์ธํ•ด ์—…๊ณ„๊ฐ€ ์•ฝ 150์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ •๋„์˜ ์†์‹ค์„ ๋ณด๋Š” ๊ฒƒ ์•„๋‹Œ๊ฐ€ ์‹ถ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ฌํ•ด ์ด๋Ÿฐ ์ œ์•ฝ๋“ค๋กœ ์ธํ•ด WFE ์ธก๋ฉด์—์„œ ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋งŒํผ์˜ ๊ธฐํšŒ ์†์‹ค์ด ๋ฐœ์ƒํ•˜๋Š”์ง€ ์ˆ˜์น˜๋กœ ๋ง์”€ํ•ด ์ฃผ์‹ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„๊นŒ์š”? ๊ทธ๋ž˜์•ผ ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ์ด๋ฅผ ๊ฐ์•ˆํ•ด์„œ ๋ถ„์„ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes, Tim, I knew somebody was going to ask that question. I should have anticipated it was going to be you. Listen, it's hard for us to put a number on it, and I'm going to decline to do that as we sit here right now. And the reason, Tim, is plans are somewhat fluid, if we're honest, meaning people are trying to figure out how to get a little more clean room space, how to bring facilities online and bump things up a little bit. So I'm not -- we're not going to put a number on it. But I think it's safe to say, and Tim can comment on this as well, I think it sets up for '27 to also be a pretty good year as we think through this. I mean the industry seems to be sold out for most of what it's supplying. Everybody is talking about these multiyear agreements that they're working on. And I think that's largely a reflection of the fact that demand is very strong, and there's just not enough clean room out there.**Douglas Bettinger:** ๋„ค, ํŒ€, ๋ˆ„๊ตฐ๊ฐ€ ๊ทธ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์„ ํ•  ์ค„ ์•Œ์•˜์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‹ ์ด ๋ฌผ์–ด๋ณผ ๊ฑฐ๋ผ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ๋„ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ–ˆ์–ด์•ผ ํ–ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ์š”. ์†”์งํžˆ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋ฉด ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์ธ ์ˆซ์ž๋ฅผ ์ œ์‹œํ•˜๊ธฐ๋Š” ์–ด๋ ต๊ณ , ์ง€๊ธˆ ์ด ์‹œ์ ์—์„œ๋Š” ๊ทธ๋ ‡๊ฒŒ ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์œผ๋ ค๊ณ  ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ ์ด์œ ๋Š”, ํŒ€, ์†”์งํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋งํ•˜์ž๋ฉด ๊ณ„ํš๋“ค์ด ๋‹ค์†Œ ์œ ๋™์ ์ด๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—…์ฒด๋“ค์ด ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„์„ ์กฐ๊ธˆ ๋” ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐฉ๋ฒ•, ์‹œ์„ค์„ ๊ฐ€๋™ํ•˜๊ณ  ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Ÿ‰์„ ๋Š˜๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๋ฐฉ๋ฒ•์„ ๋ชจ์ƒ‰ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ์ƒํ™ฉ์ด๊ฑฐ๋“ ์š”. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์ธ ์ˆ˜์น˜๋Š” ์ œ์‹œํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ํŒ€๋„ ์ด ๋ถ€๋ถ„์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์€๋ฐ, ์ด๋Ÿฐ ์ƒํ™ฉ์„ ๊ณ ๋ คํ•˜๋ฉด 27๋…„๋„ ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ์ข‹์€ ํ•œ ํ•ด๊ฐ€ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—…๊ณ„๊ฐ€ ๊ณต๊ธ‰ํ•˜๋Š” ๋Œ€๋ถ€๋ถ„์˜ ์ œํ’ˆ์ด ๋งค์ง„๋œ ์ƒํƒœ์ธ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด์ด๋‹ˆ๊นŒ์š”. ๋ชจ๋‘๊ฐ€ ํ˜„์žฌ ์ง„ํ–‰ ์ค‘์ธ ๋‹ค๋…„ ๊ณ„์•ฝ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์ด์•ผ๊ธฐํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ์ˆ˜์š”๊ฐ€ ๋งค์šฐ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ , ๋‹จ์ˆœํžˆ ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ์ด ์ถฉ๋ถ„ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š๋‹ค๋Š” ์‚ฌ์‹ค์„ ๋ฐ˜์˜ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ผ๊ณ  ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes, I don't have much to add, Tim, other than to say that clearly, you've seen a large number of fab announcements. I mean those fab announcements are capacity in '27, '28 and beyond. And so I think there's a view that the constraints this year are going to continue even out until many of those new fabs open up. And so I think we've given you a view of what we think WFE is. As Doug said, we're working on productivity improvements to get a little extra output for customers. That's how we support them.

Timothy Arcuri: UBS Investment Bank, Research Division Doug, and then you're guiding gross margin down a bit on revenue, it sounds like it's predominantly related to China.

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes. I'm not going to give you a hard number, Tim. But yes, it's customer mix, it's going to be less rich in the March quarter. And I'll also remind everybody that this isn't a fixed cost business for us. So as volume goes up and down, the component that just benefits from revenue growing isn't that big. The mix component of both products as well as customer is an important item.

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes, C.J., I mean, we've been talking for a while, I think, about CapEx growing as a result of expanding manufacturing capability. Tim specifically talked about it doubling over the last 4, 5 years. So it's been an item that we've been clearly very focused on. We're ramping globally. And you're right, that Malaysia location is our biggest location as we sit here today, and we're trying to get more out of that in addition to everywhere that we are. But the mix component, C.J., is going to be more important than anything, at least in the near term, less than just volume ramping.**Douglas Bettinger:** ๋„ค, C.J., ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ํ•œ๋™์•ˆ ์ œ์กฐ ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰ ํ™•๋Œ€๋กœ ์ธํ•œ ์ž๋ณธ์  ์ง€์ถœ(CapEx) ์ฆ๊ฐ€์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ค ์™”์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Christopher Muse: Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., Research Division Great. And then maybe a follow-up question on CSBG. I would think your customers are trying to get every bit that they can out. And so the uplift that you saw in the December quarter, and I assume continued strength in March, is that something that will sustain throughout the whole calendar year and should drive better than kind of that 12% growth CAGR? Or does that take a pause at some point as the transition focuses on greenfield investments?**Christopher Muse:** ์ข‹์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  CSBG์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํ›„์† ์งˆ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ์ตœ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๋งŽ์€ ๊ฒƒ์„ ์–ป์–ด๋‚ด๋ ค๊ณ  ๋…ธ๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์ƒ๊ฐ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ 12์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ๋ณด์…จ๋˜ ์ƒ์Šน์„ธ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  3์›”์—๋„ ์ง€์†๋œ ๊ฐ•์„ธ๋กœ ์ถ”์ •๋˜๋Š”๋ฐ์š”, ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ์—ฐ์ค‘ ๋‚ด๋‚ด ์ง€์†๋˜์–ด 12% ์„ฑ์žฅ CAGR๋ณด๋‹ค ๋” ๋‚˜์€ ์‹ค์ ์„ ๊ฒฌ์ธํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„๊นŒ์š”? ์•„๋‹ˆ๋ฉด ๊ทธ๋ฆฐํ•„๋“œ ํˆฌ์ž๋กœ ์ „ํ™˜์ด ์ง‘์ค‘๋˜๋ฉด์„œ ์–ด๋А ์‹œ์ ์— ์ž ์‹œ ๋ฉˆ์ถ”๊ฒŒ ๋ ๊นŒ์š”?
Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes, C.J., I'll let Doug speak to the specific numbers. But I think that what you should keep in mind is the CSBG, a lot of our growth, of course, is driven by customers' near-term actions and what we need to do to help them get maximum amount of output from the tools they have. But a lot of the growth really is we're transforming our service business to be much more oriented towards the use of equipment intelligence for predictive maintenance as a way of getting more output from tools and also implementation of Dextro cobots for our automated maintenance. And both of those things not only will drive top line growth, but also margin and profitability improvement, just given the efficiency with which we deliver those services. And so I think there's a number of moving pieces that are all positive for CSBG.**Timothy Archer:** ๋„ค, C.J., ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์ธ ์ˆ˜์น˜๋Š” Doug๊ฐ€ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋„๋ก ํ•˜๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค๋งŒ CSBG์™€ ๊ด€๋ จํ•ด์„œ ์—ผ๋‘์— ๋‘์…”์•ผ ํ•  ์ ์€, ๋ฌผ๋ก  ์šฐ๋ฆฌ ์„ฑ์žฅ์˜ ์ƒ๋‹น ๋ถ€๋ถ„์ด ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์˜ ๋‹จ๊ธฐ์  ์กฐ์น˜์™€ ๊ทธ๋“ค์ด ๋ณด์œ ํ•œ ์žฅ๋น„์—์„œ ์ตœ๋Œ€ํ•œ์˜ ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Ÿ‰์„ ์–ป์„ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋„๋ก ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ง€์›ํ•ด์•ผ ํ•˜๋Š” ๋ถ€๋ถ„์—์„œ ๋น„๋กฏ๋œ๋‹ค๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์„ฑ์žฅ์˜ ๋งŽ์€ ๋ถ€๋ถ„์€ ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์„œ๋น„์Šค ์‚ฌ์—…์„ ๋ณ€ํ™”์‹œํ‚ค๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ๋ฐ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์žฅ๋น„ ์ธํ…”๋ฆฌ์ „์Šค(equipment intelligence)๋ฅผ ํ™œ์šฉํ•œ ์˜ˆ์ธก ์ •๋น„๋ฅผ ํ†ตํ•ด ์žฅ๋น„์—์„œ ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Ÿ‰์„ ์–ป๊ณ , ๋˜ํ•œ ์ž๋™ํ™”๋œ ์œ ์ง€๋ณด์ˆ˜๋ฅผ ์œ„ํ•œ Dextro ํ˜‘๋™๋กœ๋ด‡(cobots)์„ ๊ตฌํ˜„ํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐฉํ–ฅ์œผ๋กœ ํ›จ์”ฌ ๋” ์ง€ํ–ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด ๋‘ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ๋ชจ๋‘ ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ๊ฒฌ์ธํ•  ๋ฟ๋งŒ ์•„๋‹ˆ๋ผ, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์„œ๋น„์Šค๋ฅผ ์ œ๊ณตํ•˜๋Š” ํšจ์œจ์„ฑ์„ ๊ณ ๋ คํ•  ๋•Œ ๋งˆ์ง„๊ณผ ์ˆ˜์ต์„ฑ ๊ฐœ์„ ๋„ ๊ฐ€์ ธ์˜ฌ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋”ฐ๋ผ์„œ CSBG์— ๊ธ์ •์ ์ธ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์š”์ธ๋“ค์ด ์ž‘์šฉํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes. And I would just add, C.J., we were pleased to see the chamber count number up. Obviously, we knew that was coming, and we're happy to share it with you. So that's an aspect of what we'll continue to take advantage of, going forward. It's very consistent, though, with what we articulated at that Investor Day back, I guess, almost a year ago. And so I would still want you thinking about CSBG growing the same way we described it back then, which is kind of high single digit, maybe low double digit. We had a very strong December quarter. It was primarily a result of Reliant Systems. That piece might be a little bit lumpy. It always is.

Atif Malik: Citigroup Inc., Research Division The first one for Tim. Tim, on the DRAM market, when do you see the volume adoption of 4F [ Square ] from 6F [ Square ]?

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes. So I think 4F [ Square ], I mean, obviously, there's still some question as to exact timing. And customers have talked about it being something towards the end of the decade, probably full volume production. But clearly, we're engaged today with customers looking at the technical needs. And we called out Akara. Akara is very well suited to the types of high aspect ratio, very small features that exist in 4F [ Square ] as well as other devices we talked about, whether it's future gate-all-around or even as foundry/logic moves to CFET. And so Akara is a -- it's a sort of a foundational tool for us in terms of capabilities that are going to be important for all of these transitions. But you really should think about those kinds of technology transitions occurring after -- probably after this next big wave of fab openings. But again, back to the constraint question, in some ways, if this turns out to be, as we believe, a multiyear build-out of fabs, the fabs that come towards the end of that will be the fabs that benefit from the SAM expansion and share gain that we're going to see coming from these new products that we've talked about. So anyway, I think 4F [ Square ] is probably on the back end of that, but there's a lot in between that will also drive our business.**Timothy Archer:** ๋„ค, 4F Square์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ์ž๋ฉด, ๋ฌผ๋ก  ์ •ํ™•ํ•œ ์‹œ๊ธฐ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ์•„์ง ๋ถˆํ™•์‹คํ•œ ๋ถ€๋ถ„์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์€ 2020๋…„๋Œ€ ๋ง์ฏค ๋ณธ๊ฒฉ์ ์ธ ์–‘์‚ฐ์ด ์‹œ์ž‘๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์ด์•ผ๊ธฐํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ๋ถ„๋ช…ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์€ ํ˜„์žฌ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค๊ณผ ๊ธฐ์ˆ ์  ์š”๊ตฌ์‚ฌํ•ญ์„ ๊ฒ€ํ† ํ•˜๋ฉฐ ์ ๊ทน์ ์œผ๋กœ ํ˜‘๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

And then, Doug, on the NAND market, I know the Memory dynamics were in line with your expectations in the December quarter, but NAND was down sequentially in DRAM up.

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes, Atif, no, listen, NAND played out exactly as we saw as the year began in 2025. And as we sit here looking in 2026, it will be a growth year for NAND. There's no question about that in our minds. I think what I observed the Memory customers doing, at least to the extent that they have both NAND and DRAM right now anyway is prioritizing DRAM over NAND a little bit because profitability there is somewhat better. I think you all understand that and know that. But that doesn't mean that people aren't focused on NAND. In fact, one of our largest customers announced a new fab that's going to be dedicated, pretty well not dedicated, but heavily emphasizing NAND capacity. And so that's on the come line. We see that happening as we get into '26 growth that is happening. We're still sticking by, we think, upgrades happen before real capacity additions. But you're going to see a combination of both. And that $40 billion that we've been talking about likely happens quicker than what we originally expected a year ago. So anyway, we feel quite good about where NAND is trending.**Douglas Bettinger:** ๋„ค, Atif, ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ์ž๋ฉด NAND๋Š” 2025๋…„ ์ดˆ ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ–ˆ๋˜ ๋Œ€๋กœ ์ •ํ™•ํžˆ ์ „๊ฐœ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ง€๊ธˆ 2026๋…„์„ ๋ฐ”๋ผ๋ณด๋ฉด์„œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋ฉด, NAND๋Š” ์„ฑ์žฅ์˜ ํ•ด๊ฐ€ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด ์ ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ์˜์‹ฌ์˜ ์—ฌ์ง€๊ฐ€ ์—†์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๊ด€์ฐฐํ•œ ๋ฐ”๋กœ๋Š”, ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“ค์ด ํ˜„์žฌ NAND์™€ DRAM์„ ๋ชจ๋‘ ๋ณด์œ ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒฝ์šฐ, ์ˆ˜์ต์„ฑ์ด ๋‹ค์†Œ ๋” ์ข‹์€ DRAM์„ NAND๋ณด๋‹ค ์šฐ์„ ์‹œํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ถ„๋„ ์ด ์ ์„ ์ดํ•ดํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ณ„์‹œ๋ฆฌ๋ผ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ๊ทธ๋ ‡๋‹ค๊ณ  ํ•ด์„œ ์‚ฌ๋žŒ๋“ค์ด NAND์— ์ง‘์ค‘ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š๋Š”๋‹ค๋Š” ์˜๋ฏธ๋Š” ์•„๋‹™๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ์ €ํฌ ์ตœ๋Œ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ ์ค‘ ํ•œ ๊ณณ์ด NAND ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ์— ์ „์šฉ์€ ์•„๋‹ˆ์ง€๋งŒ ํฌ๊ฒŒ ์ค‘์ ์„ ๋‘” ์‹ ๊ทœ ํŒน์„ ๋ฐœํ‘œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ์ง„ํ–‰ ์ค‘์— ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 26๋…„์— ์ ‘์–ด๋“ค๋ฉด์„œ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์„ฑ์žฅ์ด ์‹คํ˜„๋˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์„ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ์‹ค์ œ ์ฆ์„ค๋ณด๋‹ค ์—…๊ทธ๋ ˆ์ด๋“œ๊ฐ€ ๋จผ์ € ์ผ์–ด๋‚  ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ผ๊ณ  ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ๋‘ ๊ฐ€์ง€๊ฐ€ ํ•จ๊ป˜ ์ง„ํ–‰๋˜๋Š” ๋ชจ์Šต์„ ๋ณด๊ฒŒ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๊ณ„์† ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ•ด์˜จ 400์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์˜ ํˆฌ์ž๊ฐ€ 1๋…„ ์ „ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ–ˆ๋˜ ๊ฒƒ๋ณด๋‹ค ๋” ๋น ๋ฅด๊ฒŒ ์ด๋ฃจ์–ด์งˆ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅ์„ฑ์ด ๋†’์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์–ด์จŒ๋“  NAND ์‹œ์žฅ์˜ ํ๋ฆ„์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ๊ธ์ •์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Let me take the first part of it. I mean I think what's important to remember from the longer-term plan we laid out at last year's Investor Day and things I said on the call today, we expect to gain share and expand our SAM at every successive technology node. And so to your point, do we plan to sustain or increase share? The answer is we plan to increase our share of WFE again this year. And what needs to take place is technology transitions need to keep occurring. And what we're seeing in the environment today is those are accelerating. That's a way for customers to get more output and more output of the types of devices that are strongly demanded by the AI environment. At the same time, those technology transitions are driving higher deposition and etch intensity, which is pretty much our entire business. And so from that perspective, that's a real positive for us. And then we've talked about the success of our new products. I mean we have refreshed our conductor etch product line. We've previously refreshed our dielectric etch line. We've launched moly, dry resist is gaining traction. We're strong in advanced packaging. Backside power is still to come, and it's going to be a driver for us. And so I think we have confidence that whatever the WFE is, if it's technology-driven as it looks like it will be, we will continue to expand SAM gain share of WFE. Now as far as China goes, I think that we are looking at China being more kind of flattish year-on-year. And therefore, as the rest of the technology-driven part of the business grows, becoming a smaller percentage of our overall revenue.**Timothy Archer:** ๋จผ์ € ์ฒซ ๋ฒˆ์งธ ๋ถ€๋ถ„์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ž‘๋…„ ํˆฌ์ž์ž์˜ ๋‚ ์—์„œ ์ œ์‹œํ•œ ์žฅ๊ธฐ ๊ณ„ํš๊ณผ ์˜ค๋Š˜ ์ปจํผ๋Ÿฐ์Šค ์ฝœ์—์„œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๋‚ด์šฉ์—์„œ ๊ธฐ์–ตํ•˜์…”์•ผ ํ•  ์ค‘์š”ํ•œ ์ ์€, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๋ชจ๋“  ์ฐจ์„ธ๋Œ€ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ๋…ธ๋“œ์—์„œ ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  SAM์„ ํ™•์žฅํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•œ๋‹ค๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋”ฐ๋ผ์„œ ๊ท€ํ•˜์˜ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ, ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ฑฐ๋‚˜ ์ฆ๊ฐ€์‹œํ‚ฌ ๊ณ„ํš์ด๋ƒ๊ณ  ๋ฌผ์œผ์‹ ๋‹ค๋ฉด, ๋‹ต์€ ์˜ฌํ•ด๋„ WFE ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ๋‹ค์‹œ ์ฆ๊ฐ€์‹œํ‚ฌ ๊ณ„ํš์ด๋ผ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ด๋ฅผ ์œ„ํ•ด ํ•„์š”ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์€ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ์ „ํ™˜์ด ๊ณ„์† ์ผ์–ด๋‚˜์•ผ ํ•œ๋‹ค๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ ์‹œ์žฅ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๋ชฉ๊ฒฉํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์€ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ „ํ™˜์ด ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Ÿ‰์„, ํŠนํžˆ AI ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์—์„œ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์š”๊ตฌ๋˜๋Š” ์œ ํ˜•์˜ ๋””๋ฐ”์ด์Šค๋ฅผ ๋” ๋งŽ์ด ์ƒ์‚ฐํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋ฐฉ๋ฒ•์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋™์‹œ์—, ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ์ „ํ™˜์€ ์ฆ์ฐฉ๊ณผ ์‹๊ฐ ์ง‘์•ฝ๋„๋ฅผ ๋†’์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์‚ฌ์‹ค์ƒ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ ์‚ฌ์—… ์ „์ฒด๋ฅผ ์•„์šฐ๋ฅด๋Š” ์˜์—ญ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ ๊ด€์ ์—์„œ ๋ณด๋ฉด ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์—๊ฒŒ ์ •๋ง ๊ธ์ •์ ์ธ ์š”์†Œ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์‹ ์ œํ’ˆ์˜ ์„ฑ๊ณต์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋„ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๋ฐ” ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋„์ฒด ์‹๊ฐ ์ œํ’ˆ ๋ผ์ธ์„ ์ƒˆ๋กญ๊ฒŒ ๋‹จ์žฅํ–ˆ๊ณ , ์ด์ „์—๋Š” ์œ ์ „์ฒด ์‹๊ฐ ๋ผ์ธ์„ ๋ฆฌ๋‰ด์–ผํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ชฐ๋ฆฌ๋ธŒ๋ด ์ œํ’ˆ์„ ์ถœ์‹œํ–ˆ๊ณ , ๋“œ๋ผ์ด ๋ ˆ์ง€์ŠคํŠธ๋„ ๊ฒฌ์ธ๋ ฅ์„ ์–ป๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง• ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ ๊ฐ•์ ์„ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ณ ์š”. ํ›„๋ฉด ์ „๋ ฅ ๋ฐฐ์„ (backside power)์€ ์•„์ง ๋ณธ๊ฒฉํ™”๋˜์ง€ ์•Š์•˜์ง€๋งŒ, ์•ž์œผ๋กœ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๋™๋ ฅ์ด ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋”ฐ๋ผ์„œ WFE(์›จ์ดํผ ์ œ์กฐ ์žฅ๋น„) ์‹œ์žฅ ๊ทœ๋ชจ๊ฐ€ ์–ด๋–ป๋“  ๊ฐ„์—, ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋Œ€๋กœ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ์ฃผ๋„ํ˜•์œผ๋กœ ํ˜๋Ÿฌ๊ฐ„๋‹ค๋ฉด, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ SAM(์œ ํšจ์‹œ์žฅ)์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  WFE ๋‚ด ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ๋Š˜๋ ค๊ฐˆ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ํ™•์‹ ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Vivek Arya: BofA Securities, Research Division Got it. And for my follow-up, I think in the past, you have given this $40 billion or so addressable opportunity to upgrade the installed base to higher layer counts. I'm curious, where are we now at -- versus that $40 billion number? How much more to go? And given this emerging role of NAND or this enhanced role of NAND, I should say, in AI inference, is there a new number versus that $40 billion number that you had before?**Vivek Arya:** ์•Œ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ›„์† ์งˆ๋ฌธ์œผ๋กœ, ๊ณผ๊ฑฐ์— ๊ธฐ์กด ์„ค์น˜ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜์„ ๋” ๋†’์€ ๋ ˆ์ด์–ด ์ˆ˜๋กœ ์—…๊ทธ๋ ˆ์ด๋“œํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์‹œ์žฅ ๊ธฐํšŒ๋ฅผ ์•ฝ 400์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ทœ๋ชจ๋กœ ์ œ์‹œํ•˜์‹  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์•Œ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ ๊ทธ 400์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์–ด๋А ์ •๋„ ์ง„ํ–‰๋˜์—ˆ๋Š”์ง€, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์•ž์œผ๋กœ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๋” ๋‚จ์•„์žˆ๋Š”์ง€ ๊ถ๊ธˆํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ AI ์ถ”๋ก ์—์„œ NAND์˜ ์—ญํ• ์ด ์ƒˆ๋กญ๊ฒŒ ๋ถ€๊ฐ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ณ , ๋” ์ •ํ™•ํžˆ๋Š” ๊ฐ•ํ™”๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด์ „์— ์ œ์‹œํ•˜์…จ๋˜ 400์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์™€ ๋น„๊ตํ•ด์„œ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ์ˆ˜์น˜๊ฐ€ ์žˆ๋Š”์ง€์š”?
Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director I think we might wait until a little later in the year to refresh that number. But we've said a few times now, the specific wording we used at Investor Day was $40 billion over several years. We've now, I think, on almost every earnings call, said that seems to be happening faster than expected. And today, I reiterated that, which was NAND is moving faster than we expected on the upgrade path. And I think we'll come out and look. As Doug just mentioned, we're starting to see more interest in investing in NAND capacity, but it trades off. I mean when you have clean room space, everybody has to make a decision as to where to use that today. But I think that as we move forward and we see the growth from AI inference and other use cases, NAND is going to take its place in the AI data infrastructure and memory infrastructure, and I think you'll see growth there. So we're just executing to the customer demand today faster than we had previously expected and anticipate more to come.**Timothy Archer:** ์—ฐ์ดˆ๋ณด๋‹ค๋Š” ์กฐ๊ธˆ ๋Šฆ์ถฐ์„œ ๊ทธ ์ˆ˜์น˜๋ฅผ ์—…๋ฐ์ดํŠธํ•  ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ด๋ฏธ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ฐจ๋ก€ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ธ๋“ฏ์ด, ํˆฌ์ž์ž์˜ ๋‚ ์— ์‚ฌ์šฉํ–ˆ๋˜ ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์ธ ํ‘œํ˜„์€ "์ˆ˜๋…„์— ๊ฑธ์ณ 400์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ"์˜€์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๊ฑฐ์˜ ๋ชจ๋“  ์‹ค์  ๋ฐœํ‘œ ๋•Œ๋งˆ๋‹ค ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ณด๋‹ค ๋น ๋ฅด๊ฒŒ ์ง„ํ–‰๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ธ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ค๋Š˜๋„ ๋‹ค์‹œ ํ•œ๋ฒˆ ๊ฐ•์กฐํ–ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, NAND๊ฐ€ ์—…๊ทธ๋ ˆ์ด๋“œ ๊ฒฝ๋กœ์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ณด๋‹ค ๋น ๋ฅด๊ฒŒ ์›€์ง์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์•ž์œผ๋กœ ์ง€์ผœ๋ณด๋ฉด์„œ ํŒ๋‹จํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

The 1 point of WFE share that you gained, maybe if you could help us understand if it is coming primarily in foundry and logic or if you're seeing that across the board? Because foundry and logic is where you, I think, made the most progress in the last couple of years. And then Doug said you expect year-on-year growth to be meaningful this year. Just given your WFE expectation for 22% growth, should -- I guess, should we model 22% plus growth on the top line for the year?**Srinivas Pajjuri:** RBC ์บํ”ผํƒˆ ๋งˆ์ผ“ ๋ฆฌ์„œ์น˜ ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์—์„œ ์งˆ๋ฌธ ์ฃผ์‹  ๋‚ด์šฉ์œผ๋กœ ๋Œ์•„๊ฐ€๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes. So let me take the first one. The share gains came from a combination of both NAND and foundry/logic. And again, it's -- you might think already, we have very high share in NAND, but as technology transition occurs and layer count increases, we have an opportunity still to gain share of some of the new applications required to enable those higher layer counts. And so we gained share in NAND. But a lot of our focus we talked about over the last number of years has been to launch products that allow us to gain share at the gate-all-around nodes, more advanced foundry/logic and the transitions that are coming there. And also in advanced DRAM, we saw this year some of those foundry/logic share gains coming through in the numbers that you can see. So I'd say those primarily NAND and foundry/logic this year. And then -- sorry, the second question, can you just repeat the second question?**Timothy Archer:** ๋„ค, ์ฒซ ๋ฒˆ์งธ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์— ๋‹ต๋ณ€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์‹œ์žฅ ์ ์œ ์œจ ์ƒ์Šน์€ NAND์™€ ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง ๋ถ€๋ฌธ ๋ชจ๋‘์—์„œ ๋‚˜์™”์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฏธ NAND์—์„œ ๋งค์šฐ ๋†’์€ ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ๋ณด์œ ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ์ƒ๊ฐํ•˜์‹ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์ง€๋งŒ, ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ์ „ํ™˜์ด ์ผ์–ด๋‚˜๊ณ  ๋ ˆ์ด์–ด ์ˆ˜๊ฐ€ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜๋ฉด์„œ ๋” ๋†’์€ ๋ ˆ์ด์–ด ์ˆ˜๋ฅผ ๊ตฌํ˜„ํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐ ํ•„์š”ํ•œ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ์• ํ”Œ๋ฆฌ์ผ€์ด์…˜ ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•  ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ NAND์—์„œ ์ ์œ ์œจ์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Doug, I think at the Analyst Day, you gave us the guidance for 34% to 35% at roughly $25 billion to $27 billion. And you're already there. I think you're around $23 billion run rate, if I look at your March guidance. So I guess my question is, as we go through the next few quarters, how should we think about the op margin fall through? I know you're guiding OpEx a little bit of growth here, but I just want to understand how we should model OpEx going forward.**Srinivas Pajjuri:** ๋„ค, ์•Œ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๊ฐ„๋‹จํžˆ ์งˆ๋ฌธ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋”๊ทธ, ์• ๋„๋ฆฌ์ŠคํŠธ ๋ฐ์ด์—์„œ ๋งค์ถœ ์•ฝ 250์–ต~270์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ˆ˜์ค€์—์„œ 34~35%์˜ ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ  ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ์ฃผ์‹  ๊ฑธ๋กœ ๊ธฐ์–ตํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ๋ฐ ์ด๋ฏธ ๊ทธ ์ˆ˜์ค€์— ๋„๋‹ฌํ•˜์…จ๋„ค์š”. 3์›” ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ๋ณด๋ฉด ํ˜„์žฌ ์•ฝ 230์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๋Ÿฐ๋ ˆ์ดํŠธ(run rate) ์ˆ˜์ค€์ธ ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์€๋ฐ์š”. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ์งˆ๋ฌธ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์‹ถ์€ ๊ฑด, ํ–ฅํ›„ ๋ช‡ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋™์•ˆ ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ  ๋‚™์ˆ˜ํšจ๊ณผ(fall through)๋ฅผ ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ด์•ผ ํ• ๊นŒ์š”? ์˜์—…๋น„์šฉ์ด ์•ฝ๊ฐ„ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ์ฃผ์‹  ๊ฑธ๋กœ ์•„๋Š”๋ฐ, ์•ž์œผ๋กœ ์˜์—…๋น„์šฉ์„ ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ๋ชจ๋ธ๋งํ•ด์•ผ ํ• ์ง€ ์ดํ•ดํ•˜๊ณ  ์‹ถ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes, Srini, thanks for the question. Yes. No, we're pretty pleased with how we performed. Clearly, we're ahead of the model, right? I mean that model had 28 kind of model. And we're run rating at least on a percentage basis, what the model suggests we're going to be able to do. Ram and I and Tim were debating a little bit. We probably later in the year, need to come out and give you an update on that model, and I think we'll do that. Lots have changed in the last year or so. So stay tuned for that. I think, as we think about this year, frankly, this is a management team that prides itself on being able to deliver leverage through to the bottom line. We really did a great job with it last year, which is why I went through all the kind of demonstration of what we did last year. We will be focused on delivering leverage as we go through this year as well. And like I said, we'll give you an update to that longer-term model probably later in the year.**Douglas Bettinger:** ๋„ค, Srini, ์งˆ๋ฌธ ๊ฐ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ ์‹ค์ ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ๋งŒ์กฑํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ถ„๋ช…ํžˆ ๋ชจ๋ธ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์•ž์„œ๊ฐ€๊ณ  ์žˆ์ฃ . ๊ทธ ๋ชจ๋ธ์ด 28% ์ •๋„์˜€๋Š”๋ฐ, ํ˜„์žฌ ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์ตœ์†Œํ•œ ๋น„์œจ ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ ๋ณผ ๋•Œ ๋ชจ๋ธ์ด ์ œ์‹œํ•œ ์ˆ˜์ค€์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

James Schneider: Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., Research Division Relative to your prior comments on NAND, I understand there's a little bit more prioritization toward DRAM right now. But when do you expect that your customers are going to sort of pivot from NAND upgrades to more greenfield NAND capacity additions? We saw some announcements from at least one of your customers recently on that. So I'm curious about when you expect to sort of see that upgrade business turn into greenfield business. Could that be by -- before the end of 2026? Or is it more of a 2027 event or maybe even later?**James Schneider:** ํ˜„์žฌ DRAM์— ์ข€ ๋” ์šฐ์„ ์ˆœ์œ„๋ฅผ ๋‘๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์€ ์ดํ•ดํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค๋งŒ, ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“ค์ด NAND ์—…๊ทธ๋ ˆ์ด๋“œ์—์„œ ์‹ ๊ทœ NAND ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ ์ฆ์„ค๋กœ ์ „ํ™˜ํ•  ์‹œ์ ์€ ์–ธ์ œ์ฏค์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜์‹œ๋‚˜์š”? ์ตœ๊ทผ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ ์ค‘ ํ•œ ๊ณณ์—์„œ ๊ด€๋ จ ๋ฐœํ‘œ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์—ˆ๋˜ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์•Œ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ์—…๊ทธ๋ ˆ์ด๋“œ ์‚ฌ์—…์ด ์‹ ๊ทœ ์ฆ์„ค ์‚ฌ์—…์œผ๋กœ ์ „ํ™˜๋˜๋Š” ์‹œ์ ์ด ์–ธ์ œ์ฏค์ผ์ง€ ๊ถ๊ธˆํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2026๋…„ ๋ง ์ด์ „์— ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ• ๊นŒ์š”? ์•„๋‹ˆ๋ฉด 2027๋…„ ์ •๋„๋กœ ๋ด์•ผ ํ• ๊นŒ์š”, ํ˜น์€ ๊ทธ ์ดํ›„์ผ๊นŒ์š”?
Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes, it's a great question. I think that what we're -- the way we view it right now is that because of the clean room space constraints, it's probably, again, part of that multiyear build-out '27, '28. When clean room space is sufficiently available such that they can invest in additional NAND capacity in a big way. So that's probably our view right now. In the meantime, we talked about the acceleration of the technology transitions. You do get bit growth, you get more capacity of the higher-performing bits that are in strong demand in AI. And so I think that those are the decisions that people are making today, is move ahead as quickly as possible with many of the key technology transitions. And so we're busy doing upgrades, and that's where our focus is right now. But greenfield will come eventually, and you've seen some of those initial announcements, I think that's encouraging for all of us.**Timothy Archer:** ๋„ค, ์ข‹์€ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ๋ณด๋Š” ๊ด€์ ์€ ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„ ์ œ์•ฝ์œผ๋กœ ์ธํ•ด ๋Œ€๊ทœ๋ชจ NAND ์ฆ์„ค์ด ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•œ ์‹œ์ ์€ ์•„๋งˆ๋„ 27๋…„, 28๋…„๊ฒฝ์ด ๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๋‹ค๋…„๊ฐ„์˜ ๊ตฌ์ถ• ๊ณผ์ •์˜ ์ผ๋ถ€๊ฐ€ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„์ด ์ถฉ๋ถ„ํžˆ ํ™•๋ณด๋˜์–ด์•ผ ๋Œ€๊ทœ๋ชจ NAND ์ฆ์„ค์— ํˆฌ์žํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๊ฒŒ ๋˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ด์ฃ .

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Man, Jim, that's a great question going into '27. We just, for the first time, give you a '26 number. You're asking '27. Listen, in '26, we're very confident everything is growing. It's unequivocal. And we're also very clear when we -- look, everything is constrained, frankly, right? You're hearing it from every one of our customers when we talk about things, and they're talking about these multiyear agreements to kind of deliver the visibility into next year. Foundry and logic has grown a lot this year. DRAM has grown a lot this year. NAND is growing a little bit less, but still growing pretty well this year. At the end of the day, though, when you look at these system architectures, all this stuff needs to fit together. And you saw one of the big accelerator guys talking about this at CES, like, "Hey, we need this NAND stuff showing up." That's happening, clearly.

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director I think as we move through this year, though, we already, I would say, have better visibility into the following year than I think I can ever remember. And that's simply because customers know that they're building these fabs. They're announcing them. They're signaling to their customers, they're going to have that capacity available. And so clearly, we're having discussions at this point on what tools are going to be needed, what technology nodes are going to be running in those fabs. And they want to make sure that they can secure the capacity such that, that fab can be started up and producing as quickly as possible. And so those discussions on those fabs are clearly out into 2027. But I think in terms of exactly how those decisions get made through this year and once you have clean room space, in some cases, can -- as we just talked about, they can trade off sometimes a little bit of clean room space to be used for DRAM or for NAND or for what we're seeing in a few cases is for advanced packaging. I talked about the tremendous growth in advanced packaging and the importance that it's -- the role that it's playing. And so we've been seeing that. So I guess we'd have to see the year continuing to evolve and how the markets kind of where the demand is the shortest. But we would anticipate, as we said, robust investment across all device segments. And I think that continues on into 2027 across all 3 segments.**Timothy Archer:** ์˜ฌํ•ด๋ฅผ ์ง€๋‚˜๋ฉด์„œ ์ด๋ฏธ ๋‹ค์Œ ํ•ด์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ฐ€์‹œ์„ฑ์ด ์ œ ๊ธฐ์–ต์œผ๋กœ๋Š” ๊ทธ ์–ด๋А ๋•Œ๋ณด๋‹ค ์ข‹๋‹ค๊ณ  ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆด ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๋‹จ์ˆœํžˆ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ํŒน์„ ๊ฑด์„คํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์„ ์•Œ๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ณ , ์ด๋ฅผ ๋ฐœํ‘œํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ž์‹ ๋“ค์˜ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์—๊ฒŒ ๊ทธ ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ผ๋Š” ์‹ ํ˜ธ๋ฅผ ๋ณด๋‚ด๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋”ฐ๋ผ์„œ ํ˜„์žฌ ์–ด๋–ค ์žฅ๋น„๊ฐ€ ํ•„์š”ํ• ์ง€, ์–ด๋–ค ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ๋…ธ๋“œ๊ฐ€ ํ•ด๋‹น ํŒน์—์„œ ๊ฐ€๋™๋ ์ง€์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๋…ผ์˜๋ฅผ ์ง„ํ–‰ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์€ ํŒน์„ ์ตœ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๋นจ๋ฆฌ ๊ฐ€๋™ํ•˜๊ณ  ์ƒ์‚ฐํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋„๋ก ์ƒ์‚ฐ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๊ณ  ์‹ถ์–ดํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ํŒน๋“ค์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๋…ผ์˜๋Š” ๋ช…ํ™•ํ•˜๊ฒŒ 2027๋…„๊นŒ์ง€ ์ด์–ด์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์˜ฌํ•ด ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๊ฒฐ์ •๋“ค์ด ์ •ํ™•ํžˆ ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ์ด๋ฃจ์–ด์งˆ์ง€, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋˜๋ฉด - ๋ฐฉ๊ธˆ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๊ฒƒ์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ - ๊ฒฝ์šฐ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„ ์ผ๋ถ€๋ฅผ DRAM์ด๋‚˜ NAND, ๋˜๋Š” ์ตœ๊ทผ ๋ช‡๋ช‡ ์‚ฌ๋ก€์—์„œ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•(advanced packaging)์— ํ™œ์šฉํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐฉ์‹์œผ๋กœ ์กฐ์ •ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•์˜ ์—„์ฒญ๋‚œ ์„ฑ์žฅ๊ณผ ๊ทธ๊ฒƒ์ด ์ˆ˜ํ–‰ํ•˜๋Š” ์ค‘์š”ํ•œ ์—ญํ• ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ธ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ ์›€์ง์ž„์„ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes, Krish, listen, we have a global manufacturing footprint, right? We've got factories in Oregon, California, Ohio, Malaysia, Taiwan, Korea, Austria. I think I didn't miss anything there. We have some level of flexibility, given enough time to move things around if we really need to do that. And as customers tell us what they need and where they need it, we may adjust things.

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director No. I mean, well, at this point, if we look -- we had said previously that in kind of the order of adoption, NAND would be first to adopt moly, and we're seeing that, followed by foundry/logic and then ultimately by DRAM. What we can say right now is that the customers that have committed to production of using moly in NAND, have gone with Lam tools. We have a very strong position there. And I think the value of that, as we've talked in the past, is it means that throughout these first production ramps of ALD moly, we are building an installed base, we're maturing the tool. We're getting process learning. Competitors aren't going to give up. This is an incredibly important market and a big inflection that we've talked about. But we feel really good about our single -- we call it single-wafer moly, but if you look at the tool itself, it has multiple stations inside of one chamber in order to give ourselves high productivity. So that's a production tool, of course, today for the industry, and we intend to continue to keep it that way.**Timothy Archer:** ์•„๋‹ˆ์š”, ํ˜„์žฌ ์‹œ์ ์—์„œ ๋ณด๋ฉด -- ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ์ด์ „์— ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ธ๋“ฏ์ด ์ฑ„ํƒ ์ˆœ์„œ๋ฅผ ๋ณด๋ฉด NAND๊ฐ€ ๋ชฐ๋ฆฌ๋ธŒ๋ด์„ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ๋จผ์ € ์ฑ„ํƒํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ด๊ณ  ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ๊ทธ๋ ‡๊ฒŒ ์ง„ํ–‰๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ ๋‹ค์Œ์ด ํŒŒ์šด๋“œ๋ฆฌ/๋กœ์ง์ด๊ณ  ๊ถ๊ทน์ ์œผ๋กœ๋Š” DRAM ์ˆœ์„œ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ ํ™•์‹คํžˆ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆด ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์€ NAND์—์„œ ๋ชฐ๋ฆฌ๋ธŒ๋ด์„ ์–‘์‚ฐ์— ์‚ฌ์šฉํ•˜๊ธฐ๋กœ ๊ฒฐ์ •ํ•œ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“ค์ด ๋ชจ๋‘ Lam ์žฅ๋น„๋ฅผ ์„ ํƒํ–ˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์ด ๋ถ„์•ผ์—์„œ ๋งค์šฐ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์ž…์ง€๋ฅผ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Just as many of your customers have been surprised by the sudden rise in compute and storage demand and therefore, requirements for more GPUs, XPUs, CPUs and the associated memory and storage; they obviously got caught somewhat flat-footed in terms of sort of near to midterm capacity to support that demand curve, right, as you guys outlined.

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Well, it isn't without a lot of hard work. But one good news is we did a lot of backfinding post the COVID pandemic and the supply shortages that occurred in our own systems at that time. And we made a lot of improvements. And Doug just talked about the global nature of our manufacturing facilities spanning from the U.S. and Europe and all through Asia. And we looked at the same thing with respect to our supply chain. And I would say today, compared to when we had those shortages, we have built a much stronger, broader, deeper supply chain. And so I don't want to sell short the hard work of our supply chain guys today to meet all these expedited pull-in requests from customers. It's very hard work. But today, I would say we're not the big constraint for any of the devices compared to clean room space being a constraint to the industry. And so as the industry continues to go, we need to keep working to, again, expand our capacity, as I said, make our own operations faster. That's why we've done things like automating our warehouses to make the rate at which we can feed those parts from the time they're received from the supplier into the manufacturing that much quicker and more efficient. And so we're just continually working on what I refer to as our operational velocity and -- so that we're not the constraint.**Timothy Archer:** ๋งŽ์€ ๋…ธ๋ ฅ ์—†์ด๋Š” ๋ถˆ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•œ ์ผ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ข‹์€ ์†Œ์‹์€ ์ฝ”๋กœ๋‚˜ ํŒฌ๋ฐ๋ฏน ์ดํ›„์™€ ๋‹น์‹œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ ์‹œ์Šคํ…œ์—์„œ ๋ฐœ์ƒํ–ˆ๋˜ ๊ณต๊ธ‰ ๋ถ€์กฑ ์‚ฌํƒœ ์ดํ›„์— ๋งŽ์€ ๋ณด์™„ ์ž‘์—…์„ ์ง„ํ–‰ํ–ˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๋งŽ์€ ๊ฐœ์„ ์„ ์ด๋ค„๋ƒˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Harlan Sur: JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division I appreciate that. Then for my second question, one of the significant, obviously, incremental drivers of your business among many has been advanced packaging and HBM. You guys did about $1 billion plus in advanced packaging revenues. I think it was in calendar '24. You're anticipating strong 40% plus growth this year. But can you guys quantify how much advanced packaging grew for the team in calendar '25? And then, of that 40% growth this year, is that being more driven by 2.5D, 3.5D advanced packaging or HBM?**Harlan Sur:** ๊ฐ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋Ÿผ ๋‘ ๋ฒˆ์งธ ์งˆ๋ฌธ ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ช…๋ฐฑํžˆ ๊ท€์‚ฌ ์‚ฌ์—…์˜ ์ค‘์š”ํ•œ ์ถ”๊ฐ€ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๋™๋ ฅ ์ค‘ ํ•˜๋‚˜๊ฐ€ ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•(advanced packaging)๊ณผ HBM์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2024๋…„์— ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง• ๋งค์ถœ์ด 10์–ต ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ด์ƒ์ด์—ˆ๋˜ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์•Œ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ฌํ•ด๋Š” 40% ์ด์ƒ์˜ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ณ„์‹ ๋ฐ์š”. 2025๋…„์— ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•์ด ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ์„ฑ์žฅํ–ˆ๋Š”์ง€ ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ง์”€ํ•ด ์ฃผ์‹ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์œผ์‹ ๊ฐ€์š”? ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์˜ฌํ•ด ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜์‹œ๋Š” 40% ์„ฑ์žฅ์€ 2.5D, 3.5D ์ฒจ๋‹จ ํŒจํ‚ค์ง•์—์„œ ์ฃผ๋กœ ๋‚˜์˜ค๋Š” ๊ฑด๊ฐ€์š”, ์•„๋‹ˆ๋ฉด HBM์—์„œ ๋” ๋งŽ์ด ๋‚˜์˜ค๋Š” ๊ฑด๊ฐ€์š”?

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes. It's -- we've lumped it together. I mean it is strength in HBM. Clearly, there's strong demand there. But also I talked about more complex packaging schemes across advanced foundry/logic, and that's an important driver for us as well. The great thing about our advanced packaging capabilities is they're used in the advanced packaging of all device types. And so it's things like copper plating, it's things like etch, dielectric gap fills. And so they're really fundamental technologies to the success. So we see that as a really important business, and we've talked about the fact that we continue to invest in new technologies in that space.**Timothy Archer:** ๋„ค, ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ํ•จ๊ป˜ ๋ฌถ์–ด์„œ ์„ค๋ช…๋“œ๋ ธ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Stacy Rasgon: Bernstein Institutional Services LLC, Research Division For my first one, Doug, you clearly said it's a second half loaded year, which is fine.

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes. Stacy, it's a great question. Frankly, as I sit here right now, I think we're going to see growth every quarter from the previous quarter. I'm not going to give you a precise number. We feel good about that March quarter. I think June probably grows from that, September from that, and it ends up being a second half weighted year, both from a WFE standpoint and from our revenue.**Douglas Bettinger:** ๋„ค, Stacy, ์ข‹์€ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์†”์งํžˆ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋ฉด, ํ˜„์žฌ ์‹œ์ ์—์„œ ๋งค ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ „ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ๋ณด๊ฒŒ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ •ํ™•ํ•œ ์ˆ˜์น˜๋ฅผ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ธฐ๋Š” ์–ด๋ ต์ง€๋งŒ, 3์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ๊ธ์ •์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 6์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋Š” ๊ทธ๋ณด๋‹ค ์„ฑ์žฅํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ , 9์›” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋„ ๋งˆ์ฐฌ๊ฐ€์ง€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ฒฐ๊ตญ WFE(์›จ์ดํผ ์ œ์กฐ ์žฅ๋น„) ๊ด€์ ์—์„œ๋‚˜ ๋‹น์‚ฌ ๋งค์ถœ ๊ด€์ ์—์„œ๋‚˜ ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ์— ๋น„์ค‘์ด ์‹ค๋ฆฌ๋Š” ํ•œ ํ•ด๊ฐ€ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Stacy Rasgon: Bernstein Institutional Services LLC, Research Division I guess to get there, would you need an inflection in that growth rate in the second half? I guess some of this compares, which makes it easier. But just are you thinking there's an inflection? Do you think the growth is steady or...**Stacy Rasgon:** ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ์— ์„ฑ์žฅ๋ฅ ์ด ๋ฐ˜๋“ฑํ•ด์•ผ ๊ทธ ๋ชฉํ‘œ์— ๋„๋‹ฌํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„๊นŒ์š”? ๋น„๊ต ๊ธฐ์ €๊ฐ€ ์ข€ ๋” ์ˆ˜์›”ํ•ด์ง€๋Š” ๋ถ€๋ถ„๋„ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์€๋ฐ์š”. ์„ฑ์žฅ๋ฅ  ๋ฐ˜๋“ฑ์„ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ณ„์‹  ๊ฑด๊ฐ€์š”, ์•„๋‹ˆ๋ฉด ๊พธ์ค€ํ•œ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ณ„์‹  ๊ฑด๊ฐ€์š”...
Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO I think it's reasonably steady. I mean part of this is going to be modulated by, okay, how much space is available at each customer. And I think that they're trying to figure out still and so are we, which is why I'm not giving you more specificity. It will be second half weighted. But like I said, I think you'll see growth quarter-by-quarter as we go through '26.**Douglas Bettinger:** ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ์•ˆ์ •์ ์ด๋ผ๊ณ  ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด ๋ถ€๋ถ„์€ ๊ฐ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ์—์„œ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๋งŽ์€ ๊ณต๊ฐ„์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋А๋ƒ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ ์กฐ์ ˆ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๊ฐ์‚ฌ๋“ค๋„ ์•„์ง ํŒŒ์•…ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ์ค‘์ด๊ณ  ์ €ํฌ๋„ ๋งˆ์ฐฌ๊ฐ€์ง€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋” ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์ธ ์ˆ˜์น˜๋ฅผ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ์ง€ ๋ชปํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ์— ๋น„์ค‘์ด ์‹ค๋ฆด ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๊ฒƒ์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ 26๋…„์„ ๊ฑฐ์น˜๋ฉด์„œ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋งˆ๋‹ค ์„ฑ์žฅํ•˜๋Š” ๋ชจ์Šต์„ ๋ณด์‹ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Stacy, I guess the only thing I would add is -- I was just going to add that my comment about basically every customer is asking for pull-ins. And so there is some element of whether or not we can accelerate some small portion into the first half of the year. We would still see growth in the second because obviously, that probably means things start pulling in from the first half of next year as well. But we're in an accelerating environment of both demand and also timing requests. And so I think that back to the question that was asked about constraints, I think we need to see through the year how those play out as to kind of how much we can do.**Timothy Archer:** ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋ง๋ถ™์ด๊ณ  ์‹ถ์€ ๊ฒƒ์€, ๊ธฐ๋ณธ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ชจ๋“  ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ด ๋‚ฉ๊ธฐ ์•ž๋‹น๊น€์„ ์š”์ฒญํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ์ผ๋ถ€ ๋ฌผ๋Ÿ‰์„ ์ƒ๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ๋กœ ๋‹น๊ธธ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„์ง€ ์—ฌ๋ถ€๊ฐ€ ๊ด€๊ฑด์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ ‡๊ฒŒ ๋˜๋”๋ผ๋„ ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ์—๋„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ธ๋Š” ์ง€์†๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด๋Š”๋ฐ, ๋‚ด๋…„ ์ƒ๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ ๋ฌผ๋Ÿ‰๋„ ๋‹น๊ฒจ์งˆ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅ์„ฑ์ด ์žˆ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Stacy Rasgon: Bernstein Institutional Services LLC, Research Division Got it. That's helpful. And for my second question, I just wanted to ask about China. So Doug, I think you said you expected China to be flattish year-over-year. Was that a market statement or was that a Lam revenue statement? And the percentage should go down, I guess it was -- I don't know it was 36% or something in calendar '25. You had talked previously about like a 30% threshold. Do you think it gets to that 30%? Or do you think it's just down, but doesn't quite get there?**Stacy Rasgon:** ๋„ค, ์ค‘๊ตญ ์‹œ์žฅ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ์ „๋…„ ๋Œ€๋น„ ๋ณดํ•ฉ์„ธ ์ „๋ง์€ ๋žจ๋ฆฌ์„œ์น˜์˜ ๋งค์ถœ ๊ธฐ์ค€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋น„์ค‘ ๊ด€๋ จํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ๋ง์”€ํ•˜์‹  ๊ฒƒ์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ 2025๋…„ ์—ญ๋…„ ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ 36% ์ •๋„์˜€๊ณ , ์ด์ „์— 30% ์ˆ˜์ค€์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ•œ ์ ์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes, Stacy, the comment, in fact, made it was we think WFE in China is flattish '25 to '26 and everything else is going to grow. So as a percent of the total, it's going to be down. We didn't give a precise number, whether it's in the low 30s or high 20s, that's plus or minus probably where it is.

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes, sure. I think we characterized it as a new use case. So I don't think we saw this particular use case coming, which is related to the AI inference and kind of the expansion of [ KD Cache ] and such. I think our previous estimates have been more kind of on more traditional storage for using enterprise SSDs. And so yes, this is an expansion and kind of presents a bit longer-term growth opportunity for NAND. And so therefore, it would be beyond the kind of projections that we would have given back at Investor Day a year ago for the outlook for NAND long term.**Timothy Archer:** ๋„ค, ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์ด๊ฒƒ์„ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ์‚ฌ์šฉ ์‚ฌ๋ก€๋กœ ๊ทœ์ •ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Douglas Bettinger: Executive VP & CFO Yes. Melissa, it's a great question. Listen, if we're right about how things play out here, it's very likely that we're going to need to build some inventory in total dollar terms as we go through the year, right? When business grows, you got to have stuff ready for that growing business. So I think that's clearly going to happen. We will remain focused on asset utilization and efficiencies and hopefully be able to drive turns up a little bit from here. But we definitely are going to need to build some inventory in advance of a growing top line.

As you move forward, you start seeing things that, again, we would anticipate future '27, '28, introduction of things like backside power, again, more use of advanced packaging across more of the leading edge foundry space.

Timothy Archer: President, CEO & Director Yes. I mean, just in general terms, I mean, what happens is you end up going to next-generation HBM, dies become bigger, and that's generally what is creating the majority of the problem relative to -- when we talk about clean room space constraints, you get -- you need more clean room space and more tooling per fit that comes out of the fab. So therefore, that was what we're trying to communicate is, obviously, the performance improves, but the space required and the equipment required increases.**Timothy Archer:** ๋„ค, ์ผ๋ฐ˜์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋ฉด, ์ฐจ์„ธ๋Œ€ HBM์œผ๋กœ ๋„˜์–ด๊ฐ€๋ฉด์„œ ๋‹ค์ด(die) ํฌ๊ธฐ๊ฐ€ ์ปค์ง€๊ฒŒ ๋˜๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„ ์ œ์•ฝ๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•ด์„œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๋ฌธ์ œ์˜ ๋Œ€๋ถ€๋ถ„์„ ์•ผ๊ธฐํ•˜๋Š” ์ฃผ์š” ์›์ธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŒน(fab)์—์„œ ๋‚˜์˜ค๋Š” ์ œํ’ˆ ๋‹จ์œ„๋‹น ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ํด๋ฆฐ๋ฃธ ๊ณต๊ฐ„๊ณผ ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ์žฅ๋น„๊ฐ€ ํ•„์š”ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋”ฐ๋ผ์„œ ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ์ „๋‹ฌํ•˜๊ณ ์ž ํ–ˆ๋˜ ๊ฒƒ์€, ๋ถ„๋ช…ํžˆ ์„ฑ๋Šฅ์€ ํ–ฅ์ƒ๋˜์ง€๋งŒ ๊ทธ์— ํ•„์š”ํ•œ ๊ณต๊ฐ„๊ณผ ์žฅ๋น„๋„ ํ•จ๊ป˜ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•œ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
