Matthew Winthrop's questions to AEHR TEST SYSTEMS (AEHR) leadership • Q1 2025
Question
Matthew Winthrop of Equitable asked for clarification on a previous company statement that mentioned NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel in the context of optical I/O. He questioned if this opportunity was related to the Incal acquisition and if its potential was included in the current fiscal year's guidance.
Answer
CEO Gayn Erickson clarified that mentioning NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel was in the context of the long-term strategic opportunity in silicon photonics for chip-to-chip communication, which those companies are driving. He stated it does not imply they are current customers for that application. Erickson confirmed that this potential market is not a significant contributor to the current fiscal year's revenue guidance and represents future upside, noting Aehr has the capacity to deliver systems quickly if orders materialize.
