KLA explicitly states that U.S. export restrictions could make it easier for their China-based competitors to develop products and gain market share, creating a significant competitive threat. This pressure may make them receptive to solutions that enhance their competitive edge, improve product development, or secure their position in non-restricted markets.
Filing excerpt
