Aehr Test Systems Soars 11.1% on AI Chip Demand

Aehr Test Systems rose 11.1% in pre-market trading on August 25, 2025, driven by strong demand for its semiconductor test equipment in the burgeoning AI and data center sectors.

Aehr Test Systems has been benefiting from the surge in demand for specialized chips driven by generative AI and data center expansions. The company's test equipment is crucial for silicon carbide and semiconductor devices, which are in high demand due to the increasing need for AI accelerator chips. The U.S. government's investment in domestic chip manufacturing further supports the growth of companies like Aehr Test Systems.

The company recently secured follow-on orders for six Sonoma test systems from a leading hyperscaler, which will be delivered over the next two quarters. This order underscores the growing demand for Aehr's test and burn-in systems in the AI processor market. Additionally, a major hyperscaler is expanding its AI processor production using additional Aehr test and burn-in systems, further solidifying the company's position in the market.
