1040 GMT - BE Semiconductor Industries' results show the first signs of a wider recovery, UBS analysts write in a note. Orderbook for the fourth quarter exceeded market expectations, reflecting strong AI demand and broader market improvement, they say. Additionally, China should continue to be a significant contributor as it expands its capabilities, they add. The analysts expect order strength to continue, with potential upside from new Apple iPhone content, Intel's EMIB technology and Samsung's High Bandwidth Memory. Shares are up 8.2% at 163.55 euros.
