1252 GMT - Dutch semiconductor company ASML's 2030 earnings per share are expected to be higher than previously forecast due to surging demand from artificial-intelligence companies for memory and logic chips, Bank of America analysts write. ASML--Europe's most valuable company--provides lithography equipment used by chip makers to print the most intricate layers on semiconductors. Bank of America expects 2030 demand for the two main types of memory chips, DRAM and NAND, of $634 billion and $257 billion, respectively, while demand for Logic chips will be worth $723 billion. The size of the market means ASML's 2030 earnings per share will be around 73.2 euros, up from 62.6 euros. ASML shares slip 0.8%.(josephmichael.stonor@wsj.com)
