ASML Holding N.V.: core business model

ASML designs and sells photolithography systems that semiconductor manufacturers use to print ever-smaller chip features, with demand tied to capacity spending at leading foundries and memory producers.

ASML Holding N.V. in peer comparison

Among key peers, Tokyo Electron supplies wafer-fab equipment with a broader process-tool mix, while Applied Materials and Lam Research compete across different stages of chip manufacturing. The comparison matters because ASML remains the sole commercial supplier of extreme ultraviolet, or EUV, lithography tools, a structural distinction that still supports its pricing power and strategic relevance.

That position is part of why the stock remains a core European semiconductor benchmark on Euronext Amsterdam, even when trading is driven by near-term order timing or macro sentiment rather than fundamentals alone.
