11:01 AM EDT, 04/22/2024 (MT Newswires) -- ASML Holding ( ASML ) is considering expanding its presence in the Netherlands after the country's government has pledged to invest 2.5 billion euros ($2.7 billion) in infrastructure and education facilities in the region that houses ASML's ( ASML ) headquarters, Bloomberg reported Monday.

ASML ( ASML ) has signed a letter of intent with the Eindhoven region to explore the project, the report said, adding the Dutch government had set up a task force to keep the company in the country after media reports said it was considering expansion projects abroad.

A final decision is linked to ironing out some "crucial points," Bloomberg quoted ASML ( ASML ) spokeswoman Monique Mols as saying.

ASML ( ASML ) didn't immediately respond to a request for comment by MT Newswires.
