Fun facts about KULICKE & SOFFA INDUSTRIES INC

Quirks, history, and lore behind KLIC — the kind of stuff that makes a stock memorable.

  • 1
    The Basics
    A semiconductor equipment company · mid-cap · listed on Nasdaq · headquartered in Singapore with deep U.S. roots.
  • 2
    The Numbers

  • 3

  • 4

  • 5
    The Lore
    The company is named after its two co-founders — a pairing so old-school that it sounds like a 19th-century law firm, not a chip equipment maker.
  • 6
    The Giveaway
    Its ticker is KLIC, and its hyphenated name — a Kulicke and a Soffa — has been the gold standard in wire bonding and advanced packaging equipment since Eisenhower was president.
