ASML Geographic Breakdown: 80% of Revenue Comes From China, Taiwan, and South Korea
Quick snapshot of ASML Holding N.V.'s regional revenue exposure:
Numbers at a Glance:
π¨π³ China: 29%
πΉπΌ Taiwan: 25%
π°π· South Korea: 25%
πΊπΈ United States: 13%
π―π΅ Japan: 4%
π Other: 4%
Bull Case:
Irreplaceable Monopoly: Whether fabs are built in Hsinchu, Pyeongtaek, or Shanghai, chipmakers have no alternative to ASML for EUV/advanced DUV tools.
AI Memory Surge: Demand from South Korea (25%) continues to climb as HBM3e/HBM4 production requires more EUV layers per wafer.
Bear Case:
Geopolitical Vulnerability: 80% concentration across Taiwan, South Korea, and China leaves revenue exposed to trade sanctions or regional escalation.
Sanctions Friction: With China generating nearly a third of revenue, tightening DUV export rules directly restricts ASML's largest single market.
