Advanced Micro-Fabrication Equipment China (AMEC), a leading Chinese chip-tool manufacturer, anticipates a nearly fourfold increase in its first-half profit, reaching up to 2.9 billion yuan (US$400 million). This surge is driven by robust demand for domestic semiconductors and expansion in Chinese memory and advanced-logic fabrication plants, despite ongoing US sanctions. The company's revenue also saw a significant rise of 35% year-on-year. A substantial portion of the profit growth is attributed to investment and fair-value gains, including the sale of shares in Piotech, though adjusted profits excluding these gains also doubled. AI
