The company stated it does not expect the revocation or the latest US export control restrictions to have a material impact on its financial outlook for 2023. In recent years, China has been ASML's third-largest market after Taiwan and South Korea, but it was the biggest in the third quarter of 2023, with 46% of the company's sales.
