On June 29, MKS Instruments rose 5.32% in regular trading, trading at approximately $409.65/share, with turnover of $284 million. The rally was driven by a broad-based rebound across the semiconductor equipment sector following the previous session's pullback.
The semiconductor equipment sector staged a powerful collective recovery, with Applied Materials surging 10.66%, KLA-Tencor rising 8.85%, Lam Research gaining 8.02%, Teradyne advancing 4.68%, and ASML Holding up 2.67%. MKS Instruments had declined over 5% in the prior session amid sector-wide profit-taking pressure, making the current bounce a technical recovery.
Fundamentally, MKS reported Q1 revenue growth of 15.2% year-over-year to $1.08 billion, with adjusted EPS of $2.30 beating estimates by 12.75%. Its Q2 guidance midpoint exceeded consensus by approximately 22%. The company recently opened its Supercenter Factory in Penang, Malaysia, representing over 400 million ringgit in strategic investment, and announced a $25 million expansion of its Guangzhou Atotech facility targeting capacity doubling by Q4 2027.
