ASM Lithography (ASML, $56, BUY) Target (12 Months): $65
Continuing Order Momentum. With backlog already 2X year-end
levels, order momentum is solid. The relentless drive to finer
geometries suggests litho may grow from 15% of 1998 tool buys to
20% by 2003. Given its top-tier customer base and technology lead,
ASML is likely to gain share for a seventh year in 1999.
Estimates Have Upside. ASML is adding headcount to ramp shipments
from 65 in H1 to 108 in H2 -- and pave the way for higher unit
production in 2000. With a pickup in capacity buys and learning
curve gains on advanced tool production, shipments and margins have upside.

Raising Price Target. Foundries and memory makers buy advanced
litho to facilitate shrinks and reduce production costs. The drop
in DRAM prices has not affected tech-driven litho buys. We are
raising our price target to $65 from $60, with further upside as
visibility improves.Interim Update Warrants Higher Target Price
