    Aehr Test Systems Shifts 95% of Revenue to AI and Photonics

    Question

    Aehr Test Systems Shifts 95% of Revenue to AI and Photonics

    Direct answer

    Aehr Test Systems completed a pivot in its end-market exposure, with AI processors and silicon photonics test systems accounting for nearly 95% of fiscal 2026 revenues. Two years ago, over 95% of its sales were tied to electric vehicle silicon carbide components. The transformation is supported by a $22 million follow-on order secured in August 2026 for AI processor test systems, highlighting demand for wafer-level burn-in solutions in co-packaged optics and AI server architectures.
