SCHMID Group (NASDAQ:SHMD) said it expects stronger order activity through the remainder of 2026 as demand tied to artificial intelligence infrastructure, optical modules and advanced packaging supports its equipment business.
On the company’s first formal investor call, Chief Financial Officer Arthur Schütz described 2025 as “a year of transitioning and repositioning” for SCHMID, with operations recovering significantly in the second half after a challenging start to the year. Schütz said first-half results were affected by tariff uncertainty that delayed orders, while activity began rebounding around May.
