ASML says it sold nothing in Europe, urges EU demand push

Original: ASML says it sold 'absolutely nothing' in Europe in 2026

ASML, the Dutch maker of advanced chip lithography equipment, says it sold 'absolutely nothing' in Europe in 2026, with its sales going almost entirely to chipmakers in Asia and the United States. The company is calling on the European Union to help build actual demand for chips and chip manufacturing in Europe rather than focusing on regulation. The remarks highlight how little of Europe's semiconductor ambitions have translated into orders.

Why now: It underscores the gap between EU plans for semiconductor sovereignty and the reality that European chipmakers are not buying ASML equipment.
