Brian Chin has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Camtek’s potential for growth. The company reported first-quarter results that were largely in line with expectations and provided guidance for slightly higher revenue in the second quarter. Despite a cautious outlook for the latter half of the year due to the current geo-economic climate, Camtek anticipates a solid third quarter, with its AI and high-performance computing (HPC) advanced packaging revenue expected to continue growing year-over-year.
Camtek’s new product releases, particularly the advanced Hawk platform, are seen as key drivers of growth, providing a buffer in a year when Samsung is adjusting its high bandwidth memory (HBM) capacity. The company’s competitive position appears stable, with limited overlap with competitors like KLA. Additionally, Camtek is experiencing recurrent strength in conventional advanced packaging and front-end wafer fab inspection applications, which are expected to contribute to low-teens year-over-year revenue growth. These factors, combined with a five-year compound annual growth rate of over 20%, support the Buy rating.
