We set a record of $71 million in high‑end IC mask revenue in Q1, up 19% YoY, then saw it dip to about $57 million in Q2 – down roughly 5% YoY and about 20% sequentially – on delayed design releases. The long‑term drivers remain, alongside temporary headwinds, as demand is inherently variable and our visibility stays limited with a typical backlog of one to three weeks. Because high‑end mask sets carry much higher prices, even a small number of orders can materially move revenue and earnings.
