Onto Innovation

At the Citi Global TMT Conference, Onto Innovation reported accelerated growth expected to be about 40% in 2026, significantly outpacing the wafer fab equipment market. The order backlog exceeds USD 1.1 billion, with 60–70% of that expected to ship in 2026, and the new products Dragonfly G5 and Atlas G6 are gaining rapid market acceptance. Advanced packaging grew about 80% in 2026 and, together with higher average selling prices and manufacturing efficiency, is driving gross margin, which is expected to be above 60% in the medium term. The partnership with Rigaku strengthens 3D metrology, and management also expects significantly above‑average growth for 2027. » More on de.investing.com
