KLA Corporation (US4824801009) stock held near $183.83 after the latest trading snapshot, while the company's fiscal 2026 revenue reached $13.58 billion and Q4 GAAP EPS came in at $1.04. The most recent update also pointed to first-quarter fiscal 2027 guidance of $1.06 to $1.26 per share, giving investors a fresh earnings anchor as of August 27, 2026.
Latest numbers
MarketBeat's trading update showed KLA shares opened at $183.83 on August 27, 2026, with a market cap of $240.18 billion and a P/E ratio of 50.13. The same snapshot puts the stock's valuation in context after a year-to-date gain of 50.9% cited in recent coverage.
The most recent results report Q4 revenue of $3.66 billion, up from analyst estimates of $3.61 billion, and EPS of $1.05 versus $0.94 in the same quarter a year earlier. Fiscal 2026 full-year revenue came in at $13.58 billion, and net income reached $4.83 billion, which keeps the margin story central for semiconductor investors.
Guidance and context
First-quarter fiscal 2027 EPS guidance of $1.06 to $1.26 signals that the company is still linking demand to process control and advanced packaging work. One recent market note said advanced packaging process-control systems revenue could reach $1.1 billion in calendar 2026, more than 70% above the prior year, which helps explain why KLA remains a high-expectation name.
A different comparison stands out too: recent coverage said KLA shares had climbed 50.9% year to date, while the broader computer and technology sector was up 15.4%. That gap suggests the stock already prices in a strong earnings backdrop, so the next quarter's execution matters more than the headline growth rate.
Product line
KLA's inspection and process-control systems remain its core product set, spanning wafers, reticles, masks, chemicals, materials, integrated circuits, packaged ICs, and printed circuit boards. That mix matters because it ties revenue to yield improvement, not just unit shipment growth.
Share level
At $183.83 as of August 27, 2026, KLA still trades on a valuation that reflects both its fiscal 2026 earnings base and the market's expectation for AI-related semiconductor spending. The stock's $240.18 billion market cap and 50.13 P/E ratio keep it firmly among the market's premium semiconductor names.
