"Lam delivered another solid quarter, highlighted by strong gross margins and record EPS," said Tim Archer, Lam Research's President and Chief Executive Officer. "With deposition and etch criticality intensifying in the AI era, we are executing on our long-term strategic initiatives and leveraging our differentiated product portfolio to position Lam for outperformance."

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Results

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balances increased to $6.4 billion at the end of the June 2025 quarter compared to $5.5 billion at the end of the March 2025 quarter. The increase was primarily driven by cash generated from operating activities, partially offset by cash deployed for capital return activities and capital expenditures during the quarter.

Deferred revenue at the end of the June 2025 quarter increased to $2,681 million compared to $2,011 million as of the end of the March 2025 quarter. Lam's deferred revenue balance does not include shipments to customers in Japan, to whom title does not transfer until customer acceptance. Shipments to customers in Japan are classified as inventory at cost until the time of acceptance. The estimated future revenue from shipments to customers in Japan was approximately $342 million as of June 29, 2025 and $587 million as of March 30, 2025.

The information provided above is only an estimate of what the Company believes is realizable as of the date of this release and does not incorporate the potential impact of any business combinations, asset acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring, balance sheet valuation adjustments, financing arrangements, other investments, or other significant arrangements that may be completed or realized after the date of this release, except as described below. U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items provided include only those items that are known and can be estimated as of the date of this release. Actual results will vary from this model and the variations may be material. Reconciling items included above are as follows:

Gross margin as a percentage of revenue - amortization related to intangible assets acquired through business combinations, $2.7 million.
Operating income as a percentage of revenue - amortization related to intangible assets acquired through business combinations, $3.2 million.
Net income per diluted share - amortization related to intangible assets acquired though business combinations, $3.2 million; amortization of debt discounts, $0.7 million; and associated tax benefit for non-GAAP items ($0.2 million); totaling $3.7 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results

In addition to U.S. GAAP results, this press release also contains non-GAAP financial results. The Company's non-GAAP results for both the June 2025 and March 2025 quarters exclude amortization related to intangible assets acquired through business combinations, the effects of elective deferred compensation-related assets and liabilities, amortization of note discounts, and the net income tax effect of non-GAAP items. In addition, the June 2025 quarter excludes the income tax benefit on conclusion of certain tax matters related to a prior business combination.

Management uses non-GAAP gross margin, operating expense, operating income, operating income as a percentage of revenue, net income, and net income per diluted share to evaluate the Company's operating and financial results. The Company believes the presentation of non-GAAP results is useful to investors for analyzing business trends and comparing performance to prior periods, along with enhancing investors' ability to view the Company's results from management's perspective. Tables presenting reconciliations of non-GAAP results to U.S. GAAP results are included at the end of this press release and on the Company's website at https://investor.lamresearch.com.
