On July 7, Aehr Test Systems fell 8.2% in regular trading, trading at approximately $64.79/share, with turnover of $53.35 million. The stock had just rebounded approximately 8% on July 6 following a 17.13% plunge on July 2, and today gave back those gains amid renewed sector-wide selling pressure.
The semiconductor equipment sector experienced systematic declines across the board, with Teradyne down 11.88%, Applied Materials down 9.44%, Lam Research down 9.12%, KLA-Tencor down 8.34%, and ASML down 5.26%, reflecting broad institutional de-risking in the space.
On the fundamental side, the company previously secured a record-setting $41 million AI chip test order from a leading hyperscale cloud customer and received a follow-up silicon photonics aging system order in June. Management disclosed that a top-tier AI chip client completed over six months of benchmark testing, strengthening expectations for subsequent large orders. These medium-to-long-term business catalysts remain intact despite near-term sector headwinds.
