Movement Alert｜Nova Ltd Rises 5.22% in Regular Trading, Semiconductor Equipment Sector Rallies as Morgan Stanley Raises Target Price

Market Focus07-15

On July 15, Nova Ltd rose 5.22% in regular trading, trading at approximately $475.47/share, with turnover of $60.73 million. The gain was driven by broad strength across the semiconductor equipment sector combined with a recent target price upgrade from Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley raised its price target on Nova from $494 to $540 on July 6, maintaining an Overweight rating. The current analyst consensus target stands at $603.38, well above the current trading level, reflecting institutional optimism on the company's medium-to-long-term outlook. Earlier, Nova's WMC platform was selected by a global foundry customer as tool-of-record for advanced packaging metrology, positioning the company for further deployment as the customer expands capacity.

Fundamentally, Nova reported Q1 non-GAAP EPS of $2.33, beating the $2.20 consensus by approximately 6%, while revenue of $235.3 million exceeded the $227.4 million estimate. Within the Semiconductor Equipment sector, peers also posted strong gains: Lam Research up 4.57%, KLA-Tencor up 3.55%, ASML up 2.86%, Applied Materials up 2.86%, and AXT up 14.61%.
