Management Comment

Rafi Amit, Camtek’s CEO commented, “I am very pleased with the quarterly results: year-over-year growth in revenue of 39% and strong operating margins of 30%. Our strong results were driven by the continued demand for high performance computing (HPC) applications, which accounted for over half of our business in the quarter.”

Concluded Mr. Amit, “The main growth driver in the semiconductors market is HPC modules for Generative AI and we are well positioned to benefit from it.

Looking ahead, demand for HPC modules, industry analysts’ forecasts of growing demand for end-products such as mobile phones and PCs, as well as the major investment by key countries in establishing new local semiconductor manufacturing facilities, give us further confidence for continued growth in the coming quarters.”
