SEOUL, South Korea–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jun. 4, 2025– Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation (NYSE: MX) (“Magnachip” or the “Company”) today announced that the Board of Directors of the Company has approved an initiative intended to enhance independent Board oversight and feedback to management in conjunction with the Company’s previously announced transition to a pure-play Power business, implementation of management’s 3-3-3 strategy, and launch of new-generation Power discrete products. The 3-3-3 strategy aims for Magnachip to achieve $300 million in annual revenue and a 30% gross margin over a three-year horizon to align Magnachip’s product roadmap, R&D investments, and operational priorities to drive structural improvements and sustainable profitability.
The Company’s Chairman, Camillo Martino, has agreed, on behalf of the Board to spend additional time on-site at the Company’s headquarters in Korea to meet with management and report back to the full Board during the implementation phase of its 3-3-3 strategy to achieve profitable growth and to maximize shareholder value. The Board expects Mr. Martino to spend several days each month in Korea for at least the remainder of 2025 in order to more closely oversee and report regularly to the Board’s other independent directors on the Company’s progress in its important strategy milestones, as well as to provide more timely feedback to management on behalf of the Board.
Camillo Martino, Chairman of Magnachip, said, “I look forward to spending more time on the ground with our management team in Korea to assist the full Board in its oversight responsibilities during the Company’s implementation of its 3-3-3 strategy as a pure-play Power business. Spending additional time on-site with the management team will allow more streamlined and timely communication with the rest of the independent Board members as Magnachip management implements its strategy to deliver new-generation Power discrete and Power IC products while also achieving its financial targets.”
YJ Kim, Magnachip’s CEO, said, “We welcome the additional support from Camillo on behalf of the Board, and look forward to continuing to provide timely feedback to the rest of the Board as we pursue these new exciting opportunities for Magnachip.”
