Thad Trent, EVP and CFO of onsemi, added that the company returned 100% of its annual free cash flow to shareholders through share repurchases in 2025.

During the quarter, onsemi authorized a new share repurchase program of up to $6 billion over the next three years. The company also introduced vertical gallium nitride (vGaN) power semiconductors, targeting higher power density, improved efficiency and enhanced ruggedness.
In addition, onsemi signed a memorandum of understanding with Innoscience to explore expanded production of GaN power devices using Innoscience’s 200 mm GaN-on-silicon process. The company further strengthened its GaN roadmap by establishing a collaboration agreement with GlobalFoundries (GF) to develop and manufacture next-generation GaN power devices, beginning with 650 V products.
