ASML CEO Christophe Fouquet said on Thursday the ongoing boom in AI computer chips would help ASML by increasing the relative share of advanced logic and memory chips being made, leading to more sales of the company's best tools.

ASML, the Dutch maker of advanced chip-making machines that are critical to global supply chains, reaffirmed its long-term revenue outlook as it bets on an artificial intelligence-driven boom in semiconductor demand.

The confirmation of earlier guidance from the Dutch semiconductor group is aimed at boosting investor confidence following the company's disappointing order intake in the third quarter of the year. Vi
