Seeking Alpha: New Products And Technologies Can Continue To Push Cascade Microtech

Within the world of semiconductor equipment, Cascade Microtech (CSCD) is a tiny player, though it has respectable market share in what management has traditionally viewed as its core markets. New product launches and improving margins have done wonders for the stock (which is up almost 90% over the past 12 months), but I think there could still be more to come.

Cascade does not have a great record when it comes to sustainable margins or cash flows, and it does operate in a notoriously cyclical industry. Even so, I don't believe it takes particularly heroic assumptions to suggest that the shares could still have upside.
