Overview
Veeco is a US semiconductor capital equipment supplier designing processing systems — laser annealing, ion beam deposition, MOCVD epitaxy, wet processing, and lithography — used across semiconductor and compound semiconductor manufacturing, advanced packaging, and EUV photomask production. Q1 2026 revenue was $158 million against a reiterated full-year guidance of $740-800 million, with over $250 million in orders secured for tools supporting indium phosphide laser manufacturing for next-generation optical transceivers; management projects compound semiconductor revenue to grow roughly 50% in 2026 on that demand.
