Camtek stock faces 2027 execution test after record Q3

Camtek reported record third-quarter revenue on November 4, 2026, as demand for semiconductor inspection and metrology equipment continued to support advanced packaging. In its PR Newswire release, the company reported revenue of 161.3 million US dollars for the quarter ended September 30, up 28 percent from the year-earlier period and 21 percent from the second quarter.

Profitability remains resilient

GAAP gross profit reached 80.6 million US dollars, with the gross margin holding at 50.0 percent. Non-GAAP gross profit was 82.3 million US dollars and the adjusted margin was 51.1 percent, compared with 51.5 percent a year earlier.

GAAP operating income rose 25 percent to 39.8 million US dollars, while non-GAAP operating income reached 47.5 million US dollars. GAAP net income was 42.8 million US dollars, or 0.84 US dollars per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income reached 50.3 million US dollars, or 0.99 US dollars per diluted share. Operating cash flow totaled 71.1 million US dollars.

2027 growth raises delivery demands

Management expects fourth-quarter revenue of approximately 180 million US dollars, implying about 40 percent year-over-year growth and full-year 2026 revenue of approximately 595 million US dollars. The initial 2027 outlook calls for revenue above 800 million US dollars, supported by the order backlog and sales pipeline.

Chief Executive Rafi Amit said Camtek had visibility a year ahead for the first time in its history. He linked the outlook to high-end advanced packaging and expanding demand for artificial-intelligence applications. For investors, the central issue is whether order visibility converts into shipments while input costs and supply-chain risks remain manageable.
