These orders, valued at $9.7 million, will ship mid fiscal year 2024. Horizontal diffusion furnaces are particularly suited for 300mm power semiconductor fabrication, offering higher process temperatures and superior prevention of wafer slippage. The systems will be installed in leading semiconductor IDM and foundry fabs in North America and Asia.

“The BDF300 is the market share leader in 300mm high temperature power device applications,” said Michael Whang, CEO of Amtech Systems. “We continue to see customers that serve key end-markets, such as automotive, choose this reliable and proven technology,” added Whang.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. The Form 10-K that Amtech filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for the year-ended September 30, 2022, listed various important factors that could affect the Company's future operating results and financial condition and could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this document or elsewhere by Amtech or on its behalf.
