The biggest limiting factor for EUV scanner production rate is the light source, at least this facility isn't involved there. Hopefully everything this factory makes is available from another source, or they have sufficient working inventory to carry them through until it is back up and running.

Supposedly only a 200 sq meter area was damaged, in a 32,000 sq meter plant. So the everyone has to hope it wasn't some hard to replace tooling that bottlenecks the whole production line.
