AEM Holdings hit with patent infringement lawsuit by Advantest

AEM strongly denies the allegations.

AEM Holdings Ltd. has announced that Advantest Test Solutions, Inc. (Advantest) has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against AEM and its subsidiaries, AEM Singapore Pte. Ltd. and AEM Americas, Inc., in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California.

The suit alleges infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 11,674,999 and 12,320,841, covering a wafer-level test system that AEM says it does not use.

AEM strongly denies the claims and has retained U.S. counsel to defend itself.

The company said the lawsuit will not affect its operations, products, or ability to serve customers, and it is maintaining its revenue guidance for the second half of 2025.

AEM previously settled related disputes with Advantest through arbitration in July 2023.

The company said it will update shareholders if there are material developments and advised caution in trading its shares.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
