The stock was down 13% to $38.65 in after-hours trading, after falling 2.1% to $44.21 at Thursday’s close. Shares have more than doubled this year.
The Fremont, Calif.-based semiconductor burn-in equipment supplier posted a profit of $4.7 million, or 16 cents a share, in the quarter ended Aug. 31, compared with $589,000, or 2 cents a share, a year earlier.
Revenue jumped 93% to $20.6 million.
Aehr reaffirmed its fiscal 2024 guidance for at least $100 million in revenue and at least $28 million in net income.
The company said it had record shipments of its Fox WaferPak product in its first quarter as more electric vehicles, which use Aehr’s systems, come online.
