Fremont CA semiconductor etch and deposition (NASDAQ: LRCX) $14.9B FY2024 revenue; 3D NAND/HBM etch leader, 40%+ plasma etch share, $5B+ services revenue competing with Applied Materials and Tokyo Electron.
Lam Research Corporation is a Fremont, California-based semiconductor equipment company — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: LRCX) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — designing and manufacturing etch and deposition systems critical for semiconductor chip fabrication, providing products across plasma etch (removing material layers with precision), chemical vapor deposition (CVD — depositing thin films on wafers), atomic layer deposition (ALD — depositing single atomic layers with Angstrom-level precision), and related services through approximately 17,000 employees worldwide. In fiscal year 2024 (ending June 2024), Lam Research reported revenues of $14.9 billion, with strong revenue recovery driven by semiconductor industry capex expansion (NAND flash memory producers resuming equipment orders after the 2022-2023 memory market downturn, and DRAM producers expanding capacity for HBM — High Bandwidth Memory — required in NVIDIA AI GPU packages). CEO Tim Archer has positioned Lam Research as an "advanced process technology" partner rather than a pure equipment vendor: Lam's ALD-Select, VECTOR deposition, and Kiyo etch systems are co-developed with leading chipmakers (TSMC, Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron) for specific process nodes — creating application-specific systems optimized for 3nm logic, 1-alpha DRAM, and 200+ layer 3D NAND that require Lam's process understanding rather than generic equipment. Lam Research's Global Customer Support (GCS) organization provides equipment maintenance, spare parts, and process consulting services — generating $5+ billion annually in recurring service revenue that is less cyclical than equipment capital expenditure.
Value-positioned RTD iced tea from PepsiCo-Unilever joint venture; bold flavors at accessible prices in convenience stores competing with AriZona in mainstream tea.
Brisk is a functional beverage brand offering ready-to-drink iced tea and juice drinks, jointly owned by PepsiCo and Unilever under the Lipton brand partnership. Launched in the 1990s, Brisk positioned itself as a bold, value-priced iced tea targeting younger consumers who wanted flavorful, refreshing beverages at affordable prices — often sold in large cans and bottles that delivered more volume at lower per-ounce costs than premium tea brands. The brand's irreverent advertising featuring clay-animated celebrities became culturally memorable.
