Larry Chlebina's questions to Aehr Test Systems (AEHR) leadership • Q3 2025
Question
Larry Chlebina asked about the installation timing for the first AI processor system, Q3 packaged part revenue, the motivation for the flash memory customer's interest, whether the new fine-pitch WaferPak opens the DRAM market, and the opportunity with a customer's 3D packaging facility.
Answer
CEO Gayn Erickson confirmed the first AI system is now running at the customer's OSAT, with the full initial order to be installed by quarter-end. CFO Chris Siu stated packaged part revenue was over 20% in Q3. Erickson explained that new technologies like hybrid bonding in flash memory are driving the need for Aehr's wafer-level solution to improve yields. He agreed the fine-pitch WaferPak technology opens opportunities in DRAM, particularly for HBM. Regarding the 3D packaging facility, Erickson acknowledged the significant opportunity for burn-in solutions in multi-chip modules without confirming customer specifics.
