On August 5, Aehr Test declined 8.13% in regular trading, trading at $100.96 USD/share, with turnover of $143 million. The pullback follows the prior session's 19% surge, which was driven by the announcement of a follow-on production order from its lead silicon photonics wafer-level burn-in customer for a fully automated FOX-XP multi-wafer production burn-in system, expected to ship during H1 of 2027.
Within the Semiconductor Equipment sector where Aehr Test belongs, the overall sector showed broad weakness. Among individual stocks, AXT Inc up 5.45%, KLA Corporation down 0.62%, ASML Holding NV down 1.08%, Applied Materials down 1.15%, Lam Research down 2.22%. The stock had rallied sharply from the low-$65 level after a July 28 shelf offering triggered a 15% drop, recovering through a combination of oversold rebound momentum and strong fundamentals including record Q4 new orders, with AI data center business accounting for 71% of annual revenue and analyst target prices raised to $125.
