Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation announced financial results for the second quarter 2025.

Y.J. Kim, Magnachip’s CEO said, “In Q2, Magnachip delivered our fifth consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth from continuing operations, driven primarily by strong performances in our communications and computing applications businesses. The quarter also benefited from some pull-in activity by customers, which contributed to the overall strength of the results. In industrial applications, we continued to see solid demand across key end markets, including e-motors, LED lighting, and 5G battery management systems.”

Mr. Kim added, “Looking to the back half of the year, we face an uncertain environment due to tariffs and pricing pressures on older-generation products, particularly in China. As a result, we currently anticipate a softer second half of the year relative to our prior expectations, and we now forecast 2025 revenue from continuing operations to be flattish as compared to our prior outlook for mid-to-high single-digit growth.”

Mr. Kim added, “While headwinds are impacting our near-term outlook, we are being proactive and decisive by taking structural actions to optimize operational efficiency and we are accelerating the development of a full array of a new generation of feature-rich power products which we expect will command higher prices and margins to drive future growth and profitability. We remain firmly committed to our 3-3-3 strategy of achieving $300 million in revenue with 30% gross margin, although the exact timing will depend largely upon various macroeconomic factors.”

Q2 Results Summary

  • Consolidated revenue from continuing operations (which includes Power Analog Solutions (“PAS”) and Power IC (“PIC”) businesses) increased 8.1% year-over-year to $47.6 million and was above the mid-point of our guidance range of $45.0 to $49.0 million.
  • Consolidated gross profit margin from continuing operations of 20.4% was within our guidance range of 19.5% to 21.5%.
  • Repurchased approximately 0.7 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $2.3 million.

Q2 2025 Highlights

  • Q2 was the fifth consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth from continuing operations primarily driven by Power Analog Solutions (PAS) growth in communications and computing applications, as well as strength in Power IC products.
  • PAS revenue from the communication applications market increased 46.7% year-over-year, representing 20% of PAS revenue, while computing applications market revenue grew 45.1% year-over year and represented 8% of PAS revenue.
  • Power IC (PIC) business increased 11.1% year-over-year in Q2 driven by strength for both TV-LED and OLED power ICs.
  • Launched 28 new-generation PAS products in the first half of 2025.
  • Had 71 design-wins in Q2, up 61% from the 44 wins achieved in the year ago quarter. The design-wins include both our new generation Gen 6 Super Junction products and low-voltage Gen 8 MOSFETs, as well as our prior generation medium-voltage and Super Junction products.
