Factors to Consider

The growing proliferation of electric vehicles and having them coming online with specific designs for inverters and onboard chargers is expected to have been a tailwind for Aehr Test Systems.

Strength in production wafer level burn-in equipment for silicon carbide semiconductors is expected to have continued benefiting the upcoming results.

These products are expected to have aided the company in winning new customers during the quarter under review.

Strengthening momentum across the FOX family of products might have been another positive.

Increasing shipment of FOXTM WaferPak full wafer Contactors might have contributed well to the company’s top-line growth.

Also, strength in the FOX-NP system and FOX-XP multi-wafer test and burn-in systems are likely to have driven AEHR’s customer momentum in the to-be-reported quarter.

However, the challenging global macroeconomic environment and growing economic uncertainties are likely to be reflected in Aehr Test Systems’ fiscal second-quarter results.
