Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The earnings call highlighted record revenue and strong demand driven by AI and advanced packaging, alongside significant investments in NAND and DRAM. However, regulatory impacts in China and tariff pressures pose challenges. Overall, the positive aspects of market leadership and demand growth outweigh the regulatory and margin pressures.
Company Guidance
During the September 2025 earnings call for Lam Research Corporation, the company provided guidance for the December quarter and discussed several key metrics and trends impacting their business. Lam reported record revenue of $5.3 billion for the September quarter, alongside a gross margin of 50.6% and a record operating margin of 35%. Looking ahead, for the December quarter, Lam expects revenue of $5.2 billion, plus or minus $300 million, and a gross margin of 48.5%, plus or minus one percentage point. The company anticipates a $200 million revenue impact in the December quarter from new restrictions on shipments to certain Chinese customers, with a total expected impact of $600 million in calendar year 2026. Despite these challenges, Lam projects strong growth in worldwide fabrication equipment (WFE) spending and expects the China region to account for less than 30% of overall revenues in 2026. The company also highlighted the burgeoning influence of AI on semiconductor demands, projecting $8 billion in WFE spending for every $100 billion in incremental AI data center investment. Moreover, Lam emphasized its strategic investments in advanced technologies, including NAND upgrades, AI-related demand in DRAM and foundry logic, and advanced packaging solutions, which position the company for continued growth and outperformance relative to the overall WFE market.
