JPMorgan released a research report stating that ASMPT is well-positioned to benefit from strong growth in advanced packaging equipment investment and a recovery in mainstream semiconductor solutions. Additionally, the company has implemented stricter operational expense management, which is expected to enhance operating leverage over the coming quarters. The firm maintained its "Overweight" rating on ASMPT and increased the target price from HK$125 to HK$130. JPMorgan further noted that, in the long term, ASMPT's business portfolio restructuring will enable it to focus more on the rapidly growing advanced packaging equipment segment. With the expansion of the overall wafer-level packaging market and improvements in the mainstream semiconductor market, earnings growth is anticipated to accelerate between 2026 and 2027.
