Q3 2025 Financial Highlights

 

Q4 and Full-year 2025 Financial Guidance

While actual results may vary, Magnachip currently expects the following:

 

For Q4 2025:

• Consolidated revenue from continuing operations (which includes Power Analog Solutions and Power IC businesses) to be in the range of $38.5 to $42.5 million, down 11.9% sequentially and down 17.1% year-over-year at the mid-point on an equivalent basis due in part to a one-time $2.5 million incentive program we expect to execute in Q4 to reduce higher levels of inventory in the channel. This compares with equivalent revenue of $45.9 million in Q3 2025 and $48.9 million in Q4 2024.
• Consolidated gross profit margin from continuing operations to be in the range of 8% to 10% due to the above-described one-time incentive as well as a lower fab utilization rate. We expect this incentive program to be a 600 basis point negative impact. This compares with equivalent gross profit margin of 18.6% in Q3 2025 and 23.2% in Q4 2024.

 

For the full-year 2025:

• Consolidated revenue from continuing operations is expected to be down by 3.8% year-over-year at the mid-point of Q4 revenue guidance on an equivalent basis. The equivalent revenue in 2024 was $185.8 million.
• Consolidated gross profit margin from continuing operations is expected to be between 17% to 18% and the above-described one-time incentive in Q4 is expected to have an about 100 basis point negative impact in the full-year consolidated gross profit margin. The equivalent gross profit margin was 21.5% in 2024.

We present Adjusted Operating Loss from continuing operations as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define Adjusted Operating Loss from continuing operations for the periods indicated as operating loss from continuing operations adjusted to exclude (i) Equity-based compensation expense and (ii) Early termination and other charges

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded in our consolidated statement of operations $2,599 thousand in expenses of termination related charges in connection with the voluntary resignation program executed during the third quarter of 2025. For that same period, we also recorded $1,395 thousand in expenses of certain executive separation benefits.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded $496 thousand of one-time employee incentives and $350 thousand of certain executive separation benefits.

We present Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted Loss from continuing operations as supplemental measures of our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the periods indicated as EBITDA – continuing operations (as defined below), adjusted to exclude (i) Equity-based compensation expense, (ii) Foreign currency loss (gain), net, (iii) Derivative valuation loss (gain), net and (iv) Other charges. EBITDA – continuing operations for the periods indicated is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), net and depreciation and amortization.

We prepare Adjusted Loss from continuing operations by adjusting income (loss) from continuing operations to eliminate the impact of a number of non-cash expenses and other items that may be either one time or recurring that we do not consider to be indicative of our core ongoing operating performance. We believe that Adjusted Loss from continuing operations is particularly useful because it reflects the impact of our asset base and capital structure on our operating performance. We define Adjusted Loss from continuing operations for the periods as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude (i) Equity-based compensation expense, (ii) Foreign currency loss (gain), net, (iii) Derivative valuation loss (gain), net, (iv) Early termination and other charges, and (v) Income tax effect on non-GAAP adjustments.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded in our consolidated statement of operations $2,599 thousand in expenses of termination related charges in connection with the voluntary resignation program executed during the third quarter of 2025. For that same period, we also recorded $1,395 thousand in expenses of certain executive separation benefits.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded $496 thousand of one-time employee incentives and $350 thousand of certain executive separation benefits.
