Atomera Updates Revenue Guidance for the Fourth Quarter of 2023

LOS GATOS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 10, 2024 / Atomera Incorporated (NASDAQ:ATOM), a semiconductor materials and technology licensing company, today announced it expects fourth quarter 2023 revenues to be approximately $500,000, an increase from the prior guidance of $300,000 to $350,000.

In late December, Atomera achieved the second revenue milestone under its first commercial license agreement, triggered by customer acceptance of the MST process. Acceptance was achieved after the customer validated the quality of MST film deposition on an Epi tool in its facility. This follows an earlier milestone for completing the transfer of Atomera intellectual property, including the MST film recipe, to this customer.[FL1]

"Our first commercial licensee was able to complete installation of our technology and independently validate MST film quality just weeks after receiving our recipe, bringing them one step closer to commercial distribution of MST-enabled products," said Scott Bibaud, Atomera's president and CEO. "Our customer can now manufacture wafers with MST on their own which should speed development and shorten the time to mass production and Atomera royalties. This effort is a great example of how we work with the most advanced semiconductor companies in the world to improve transistor performance and extend Moore's Law."
