CEO: "Applied Materials' fourth quarter results reflect a healthy uptick in demand for semiconductor equipment, combined with strong execution across the company," Chief Executive Gary Dickerson said in a statement. "The semiconductor industry is increasingly adopting a new playbook for improving chip performance, power, area and cost, and we are investing in unique solutions to enable our customers' success in the AI-Big Data era."
