ASML is the predominant supplier of photolithography equipment for semiconductor manufacturers. We expect it to materially benefit from the proliferation of extreme ultraviolet, or EUV, lithography at leading-edge chipmakers, which we believe justifies ASML's wide economic moat rating.
Founded in 1984 and based in the Netherlands, ASML is the market share leader in photolithography systems used in the manufacturing of semiconductors. Photolithography is the process in which a light source is used to expose circuit patterns from a photomask onto a semiconductor wafer. The latest technological advances in this segment allow chipmakers to continually increase the number of transistors on the same area of silicon, with lithography historically representing a meaningful portion of the cost of making cutting-edge chips. Chipmakers require next-generation EUV lithography tools to continue past the 5-nanometer process node, which only ASML can provide. ASML's products are used at every major semiconductor manufacturer, including Intel, Samsung, and TSMC.
Morningstar analysts hand-select direct competitors or comparable companies to provide context on the strength and durability of ASML’s competitive advantage.

ASML’s full dividends and stock split history
on the Dividend tab.
Dividend yield allows investors, particularly those interested in dividend-paying stocks,
to compare the relationship between a stock’s price and how it rewards stockholders through dividends.
The formula for calculating dividend yield is to divide the annual dividend paid per share by the stock price.

ASML’s market cap is 282.47 Bil.
Market capitalization is calculated by taking a company’s share price and multiplying it by the total number of shares.
It’s often used to measure a company’s size. In the Morningstar Style Box, large-cap names account for the
largest 70% of U.S. stocks, mid-cap names account for the largest 70–90%, and small-cap names are the remaining 10% of companies.

ASML’s stock style is Large Growth.
Style is an investment factor that has a meaningful impact on investment risk and returns.
Style is calculated by combining value and growth scores, which are first individually calculated.
High-growth stocks tend to represent the technology, healthcare, and communications sectors. They rarely distribute dividends to shareholders, opting for reinvestment in their businesses. More value-oriented stocks tend to represent financial services, utilities, and energy stocks. These are established companies that reliably pay dividends.

ASML’s price/sales is 11.18.
Price/sales represents the amount an investor is willing to pay for a dollar generated from
a particular company’s sales or revenues.
ASML’s price/forward earnings is 39.56.
Forward P/E gives some indication of how cheap or expensive a stock is compared with consensus earnings estimates.

ASML’s price/book is 26.47.
Price/book ratio can tell investors approximately how much they’re paying for a company’s assets,
based on historical, rather than current, valuations. Historical valuations generally do not reflect
a company’s current market value. Value investors frequently look for companies that have low price/book ratios.
