Applied Materials, the largest U.S.-based supplier of semiconductor manufacturing equipment, is a critical part of Nvidia's supply chain for AI systems. While last quarter's revenue was flat, its EPS outperformed, reflecting strong business model strength. With a surge expected in the semiconductor industry in the second half of 2024, including new AI chip demand, Applied is well-prepared with its extensive equipment portfolio and is poised for revenue growth. The stock currently trades at 25 times trailing-12-month earnings, and analysts are optimistic about its future growth potential.
