Gayn Erickson, President and CEO of Aehr Test Systems, commented:
“While second quarter revenue was softer than anticipated, we made significant progress in both wafer-level burn-in (WLBI) and packaged-part burn-in (PPBI) segments and are very excited about our prospects moving forward. Based on customer forecasts recently provided to Aehr, we believe our bookings in the second half of this fiscal year will be between $60 million and $80 million, which would set the stage for a very strong fiscal 2027 that begins on May 30, 2026.
“During the quarter, we expanded engagements and completed production installations for WLBI across multiple end markets. Our lead WLBI customer for artificial intelligence (AI) processors, which is developing its next-generation device, has requested additional capacity this fiscal year and plans to add systems and transition to our fully integrated automatic WaferPakTM aligner for its 300mm wafers. We expect this customer to continue scaling and are excited to support its growth.
“We also completed development of an initial new custom high-power fine-pitch WaferPak for AI processors, which is currently in testing as part of our benchmark evaluation program with a top-tier AI processor supplier. This program is designed to validate our FOX-XPTM production systems for WLBI and functional test of their high-performance, high-power AI processors. We expect to complete data collection this quarter and are confident in our ability to support its devices. In addition, two other AI companies have requested benchmark evaluations for wafer-level testing of their processors as an alternative to system-level or PPBI test. These benchmarks typically take approximately six months, and we expect to make meaningful progress beginning this quarter.
“During the quarter, we announced a strategic partnership with ISE Labs to deliver advanced wafer-level test and burn-in services for next-generation high-performance computing (HPC) and AI applications. This partnership brings breakthrough capabilities to the market while accelerating time to market and improving performance for our customers.
“We are seeing continued momentum in packaged-part qualification and production burn-in for AI processors, driving growth in our new Sonoma™ ultra-high-power PPBI systems and consumables. As we announced today in a separate press release, during our fiscal third quarter to date we have received orders from multiple customers totaling more than $5.5 million for our Sonoma ultra-high-power PPBI systems, including initial orders from a premier global Silicon Valley lab for our newly introduced next-generation fully automated Sonoma platform. These orders already exceed total Sonoma orders for the entire second quarter, highlighting the accelerating demand we are seeing for our package-level burn-in of high-powered AI and compute devices.
“This quarter, we also secured key new device wins on the Sonoma platform for high-temperature operating life (HTOL) qualification. These wins are expected to drive additional capacity at test houses, with at least one customer planning to transition to production later this calendar year, generating significant system demand. Our lead PPBI production customer for AI processors continues to ramp and is forecasting substantial growth in 2026 and beyond. Although we have not yet received the purchase order, we have received a substantial forecast from this customer for AI ASIC production capacity, with requested shipments beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal 2027, which we expect to contribute to very strong bookings in fiscal 2026 and generate significant revenue growth in fiscal 2027.
“Beyond AI processors, we recently completed our WLBI benchmark with a global leader in flash memory, demonstrating that our FOX-XP platform can serve as a competitive, cost-effective alternative to traditional packaged-part test and burn-in methods for semiconductor memory devices. The customer has taken the wafers back for further processing to confirm correlation with their existing process. We have also proposed a solution to support testing of an emerging memory technology, High Bandwidth Flash (HBF), which we believe represents a new industry standard, with additional updates to come.

“In silicon photonics, our lead customer has now firmed up its production ramp, with production beginning early in our next fiscal year. We believe this is tied to recently announced products from major AI processor suppliers and could drive orders in calendar 2026 for delivery in late 2026 to early 2027. We have also finalized a forecast with another large customer for silicon photonics devices initially targeted at data center applications, with a roadmap extending to optical I/O. Silicon photonics for data centers, optical I/O and chip-to-chip communication appears to be emerging as a significant driver of demand for our WLBI systems and WaferPaks.
“As stated last quarter, the rapid advancement of generative AI and the accelerating electrification of transportation and global infrastructure represent two of the most significant macro trends impacting the semiconductor industry today. These transformative forces are driving enormous growth in semiconductor demand while fundamentally increasing the performance, reliability, safety, and security requirements of the devices used across computing and data infrastructure, telecommunications networks, hard disk drive and solid-state storage solutions, electric vehicles, charging systems, and renewable energy generation.
“As these applications operate at ever-higher power levels and in increasingly mission-critical environments, the need for comprehensive test and burn-in has become more essential than ever. Semiconductor manufacturers are turning to advanced wafer-level and package-level burn-in systems to screen for early life failures, validate long-term reliability, and ensure consistent performance under extreme electrical and thermal stress. This growing emphasis on reliability testing reflects a fundamental shift in the industry - from simply achieving functionality to guaranteeing dependable operation throughout a product’s lifetime, a requirement that continues to expand alongside the scale and complexity of next-generation semiconductor devices.
“This year, we are making significant progress expanding into additional key markets for our semiconductor test and burn-in solutions, including AI processors, gallium nitride power semiconductors, data storage devices, silicon photonics integrated circuits, and flash memory. This diversification of our markets and customers is significant, given our revenue concentration in silicon carbide for electric vehicles the last two years. This progress on key initiatives expands our total addressable market, diversifies our customer base, and provides us with new products, capabilities, and capacity, all aimed at driving revenue growth and increasing profitability.
“The progress we made this quarter with a significant number of customer engagements and production installations provides improved visibility into future demand. As a result, we are reinstating guidance for the second half of fiscal 2026.”
Financial Guidance:
For the second half of fiscal year 2026 that began November 29, 2025 and ends May 29, 2026, Aehr expects revenue between $25 million and $30 million and non-GAAP net loss per diluted share between $(0.09) and $(0.05).

Non-GAAP measures should not be considered a replacement for GAAP results. The non-GAAP measures indicated above are financial measures the Company uses to evaluate the underlying results and operating performance of the business. The limitation of these measures are that they exclude items that impact the Company's current period GAAP measures. This limitation is best addressed by using these measures in combination with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies.
We believe these measures enhance investors' ability to review the Company's business from the same perspective as the Company's management and facilitate comparisons of this period's results with prior periods.
