MKS Inc.: Long-Term Structural Growth From Rising Semi And PCB Complexity

MKS Inc. is a critical supplier to the semiconductor and PCB manufacturing industries, serving major WFE providers and benefiting from sector growth. MKSI's Electronics and Packaging segment is accelerating, driven by AI-related demand for high-layer-count PCBs and recurring high-margin chemistry sales. Despite a legacy Specialty Industrial segment with limited growth, MKSI's overall revenue mix is increasingly weighted toward faster-growing, higher-margin businesses.
