Action:Reiterated
Date:07/29/26
The score is supported primarily by exceptional financial performance (rapid TTM growth, very high margins, and a near debt-free balance sheet with strong ROE). Offsetting this, technicals are currently weak with the price below major short- and mid-term moving averages, and valuation is relatively expensive (P/E ~38.6) with a low dividend yield (~0.88%).
Positive Factors
Exceptional Profitability
Sustained very high gross and net margins indicate durable pricing power and operating efficiency in metrology equipment. High margins support reinvestment in R&D, buffer cycle swings, and enable margin-accretive service expansion, strengthening long-term cash earnings.
Negative Factors
Free Cash Flow Variability
Sharp swing in FCF and historically inconsistent cash conversion point to working-capital and timing sensitivity in equipment sales. That variability can constrain organic funding for capex, dividends, or M&A and increases reliance on timing or balance-sheet buffers.

Lasertec Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Very strong fundamentals: TTM revenue growth is high (+56%) with exceptional profitability (about ~60% gross margin and ~35% net margin). The balance sheet is highly conservative with negligible leverage and strong ROE (~40–43%). The main offset is cash-flow variability, including a recent TTM free-cash-flow decline (~-28%) and historically inconsistent cash conversion.
