Magnachip Reports Results for Third Quarter 2024

Financial Highlights

  • Q3 consolidated revenue was $66.5 million, at the high-end of guidance range of $61.5-66.5 million.
    • Q3 standard product business revenue was up 25.9% sequentially.
  • Q3 consolidated gross profit margin of 23.3% was in-line with the mid-point of guidance range of 22.5-24.5%.
    • Q3 standard product business gross profit margin was 24.4%, up 1.3 percentage points sequentially.
  • Ended Q3 with cash of $121.1 million; and an additional non-redeemable short-term financial investment of $30 million.
  • Repurchased approximately 0.5 million shares for aggregate purchase price of $2.5 million during the quarter.

 

Operational Highlights

  • Broad-based sequential revenue growth in our PAS business was driven by leaner distribution channels and better-than-typical seasonality. Relative strength was more evident in industrial, computing, and consumer applications. Automotive continues to show strength with additional design wins in Japan and China.
  • Started initial DDIC production and shipments for a premium smartphone model from a leading China OEM.
  • Received a purchase order from a second leading China smartphone OEM and commenced shipments in October 2024.
  • Began sampling our new OLED driver designed with next-generation IP, including sub-pixel rendering (SPR), refined color enhancement, color filter, brightness uniformity control and more than 20% reduction in power consumption than previous generation.
  • Power IC revenue increased sequentially, driven primarily by demand for LCD TVs and OLED IT in tablets and notebooks.

 

SEOUL, South Korea–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Oct. 30, 2024– Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation (NYSE: MX) (“Magnachip” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for the third quarter 2024.

YJ Kim, Magnachip’s CEO, commented, “Our Q3 revenue was at the high-end of guidance driven by broad-based growth in our Standard Product businesses, which is comprised of our MSS and PAS businesses. Standard Product revenue increased 25.9% sequentially and 24% year-over-year. Our discrete Power business benefited from leaner inventory in distribution channels as well as new product designs wins resulting in better-than-seasonal growth. In MSS, the strong sequential growth was due to increased demand for products targeted for China smartphone OEMs, automotive displays, and OLED IT.”

YJ Kim added, “Looking ahead, we expect our Standard Product business revenue in Q4 will modestly decline sequentially, which is better than typical seasonality experienced in past years. We reiterate our full-year guidance for double-digit growth in both MSS and PAS businesses in 2024.”

___________

(1)

Following the consummation of the sale of the Foundry Services Group business and Fab 4 in Q3 2020, we provided transitional foundry services to the buyer for foundry products manufactured in our fabrication facility located in Gumi, Korea, known as “Fab 3” (“Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services”). The contractual obligation to provide the Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services ended August 31, 2023, and we are winding down these foundry services and have begun to convert portions of the idle capacity to PAS products during the second half of 2024. Because these foundry services during the wind-down period are still provided to the same buyer by us using our Fab 3 based on mutually agreed terms and conditions, we will continue to report our revenue from providing these foundry services and related cost of sales within the Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services line in our consolidated statement of operations until such wind down is completed. Management believes that disclosing revenue of Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services separately from the standard products business allows investors to better understand the results of our core standard products MSS and PAS businesses.

(2)

Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, can provide a meaningful understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business and operations and assist in evaluating our core operating performance. However, such non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net loss or as a better indicator of our operating performance than measures that are presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP results is included in this press release.

 

Q4 and Full-year 2024 Financial Guidance

Beginning in Q1 of 2024, the Company began reporting results under its newly organized businesses: MSS (Mixed-Signal Solutions) and PAS (Power Analog Solutions). While actual results may vary, Magnachip currently expects the following:

For Q4 2024:

  • Consolidated revenue to be in the range of $59.0 to $64.0 million, including approximately $2.0 million of Transitional Foundry Services.
    • MSS revenue to be in the range of $15 to $17 million, down 2.7% sequentially but up 87% year-over-year at the mid-point. This compares with MSS revenue of $16.4 million in Q3 2024 and MSS equivalent revenue of $8.6 million in Q4 2023.
    • PAS revenue to be in the range of $42 to $45 million, down 8.6% sequentially but up 33.3% year-over-year at the mid-point. This compares with PAS revenue of $47.6 million in Q3 2024 and PAS equivalent revenue of $32.6 million in Q4 2023.
  • Consolidated gross profit margin to be in the range of 21.5% to 23.5%.
    • MSS gross profit margin to be in the range of 37.5% to 40.5%. This compares with MSS gross profit margin of 38.7% in Q3 2024 and MSS equivalent gross profit margin of 41.3% in Q4 2023.
    • PAS gross profit margin to be in the range of 17% to 19%. This compares with PAS gross profit margin of 19.4% in Q3 2024 and PAS equivalent gross profit margin of 18.1% in Q4 2023.

 

For the full-year 2024, we currently expect:

  • MSS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with MSS equivalent revenue of $44.4 million in 2023, consistent with what we communicated throughout the year.
  • PAS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with PAS equivalent revenue of $151.3 million in 2023, consistent with what we communicated throughout the year.
  • Transitional Foundry Services revenue will be wound down by the end of 2024, as expected. We expect any remaining amounts to be immaterial beyond Q4 2024.
  • Consolidated revenue flattish, as compared to our prior expectation of flattish-to-slightly down.
  • Consolidated gross profit margin between 21% to 22%, as compared to our prior expectation of 19% to 22%. This compares with the consolidated gross profit margin of 22.4% in 2023.

 

Q3 2024 Earnings Conference Call

Magnachip will host a corresponding conference call at 2:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, to discuss its financial results.

We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss as supplemental measures of our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated as EBITDA (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) Early termination and other charges. EBITDA for the periods indicated is defined as net loss before interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization.

We prepare Adjusted Net Loss by adjusting net loss 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 Net Loss is particularly useful because it reflects the impact of our asset base and capital structure on our operating performance. We define Adjusted Net Loss for the periods as net 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.

(1)

Following the consummation of the sale of the Foundry Services Group business and Fab 4 in Q3 2020, we provided transitional foundry services to the buyer for foundry products manufactured in our fabrication facility located in Gumi, Korea, known as “Fab 3” (“Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services”). The contractual obligation to provide the Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services ended August 31, 2023, and we are winding down these foundry services and planning to convert portions of the idle capacity to PAS products beginning around the second half of 2024. Because these foundry services during the wind-down period are still provided to the same buyer by us using our Fab 3 based on mutually agreed terms and conditions, we will continue to report our revenue from providing these foundry services and related cost of sales within the Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services line in our consolidated statement of operations until such wind down is completed. Management believes that disclosing revenue of Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services separately from the standard products business allows investors to better understand the results of our core standard products MSS and PAS businesses.

(2)

Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, can provide a meaningful understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business and operations and assist in evaluating our core operating performance. However, such non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net loss or as a better indicator of our operating performance than measures that are presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP results is included in this press release.

 

Q3 and Full-year 2024 Financial Guidance

Beginning in Q1, the Company began reporting results under its newly organized businesses: MSS (Mixed-Signal Solutions) and PAS (Power Analog Solutions). While actual results may vary, Magnachip currently expects the following:

For Q3 2024:

  • Consolidated revenue to be in the range of $61.5 to $66.5 million, including approximately $1.5 million of Transitional Foundry Services.
    • MSS revenue to be in the range of $14.5 to $16.5 million, up 33.7% sequentially and 46.2% year-over-year at the mid-point. This compares with MSS equivalent revenue of $11.6 million in Q2 2024 and $10.6 million in Q3 2023.
    • PAS revenue to be in the range of $45.5 to $48.5 million, up 19.8% sequentially and 14.6% year-over-year at the mid-point. This compares with PAS equivalent revenue of $39.2 million in Q2 2024 and $41.0 million in Q3 2023.
  • Consolidated gross profit margin to be in the range of 22.5% to 24.5%.
    • MSS gross profit margin to be in the range of 36.5% to 39.5%. This compares with MSS equivalent gross profit margin of 34.6% in Q2 2024 and 28.8% in Q3 2023.
    • PAS gross profit margin to be in the range of 18.5% to 20.5%. This compares with PAS equivalent gross profit margin of 19.7% in Q2 2024 and 28.6% in Q3 2023.

 

For the full-year 2024, we currently expect:

  • MSS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with MSS equivalent revenue of $44.4 million in 2023, consistent with what we communicated at the beginning of the year.
  • PAS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with PAS equivalent revenue of $151.3 million in 2023, consistent with what we communicated at the beginning of the year.
  • Transitional Foundry Services revenue will decline in 2024, as expected. We expect this revenue to phase out by the end of the year.
  • Consolidated revenue flattish-to-slightly down, compared to prior expectation of flat-to-up-slightly year-over-year.
  • Consolidated gross profit margin between 19% to 22%, above our prior expectation of 17% to 20%. This compares with the consolidated gross profit margin of 22.4% in 2023.

 

Q2 2024 Earnings Conference Call

Magnachip will host a corresponding conference call at 2:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, July 31, 2024, to discuss its financial results.

We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Loss as supplemental measures of our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated as EBITDA (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) Early termination and other charges. EBITDA for the periods indicated is defined as net loss before interest income, interest expense, income tax benefit and depreciation and amortization.

We prepare Adjusted Net Loss by adjusting net loss 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 Net Loss is particularly useful because it reflects the impact of our asset base and capital structure on our operating performance. We define Adjusted Net Loss for the periods as net 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 six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded in our consolidated statement of operations $8,449 thousand of termination related charges in connection with the voluntary resignation program that we offered to certain employees during the first quarter of 2023.

___________

(1)

Following the consummation of the sale of the Foundry Services Group business and Fab 4 in Q3 2020, we provided transitional foundry services to the buyer for foundry products manufactured in our fabrication facility located in Gumi, Korea, known as “Fab 3” (“Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services”). The contractual obligation to provide the Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services ended August 31, 2023, and we are winding down these foundry services and planning to convert portions of the idle capacity to PAS products beginning around the second half of 2024. Because these foundry services during the wind-down period are still provided to the same buyer by us using our Fab 3 based on mutually agreed terms and conditions, we will continue to report our revenue from providing these foundry services and related cost of sales within the Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services line in our consolidated statement of operations until such wind down is completed. Management believes that disclosing revenue of Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services separately from the standard products business allows investors to better understand the results of our core standard products MSS and PAS businesses.

(2)

Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP results, can provide a meaningful understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business and operations and assist in evaluating our core operating performance. However, such non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net loss or as a better indicator of our operating performance than measures that are presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP results is included in this press release.

 

Q2 and 2024 Financial Guidance

Beginning in Q1, the Company begins reporting results under its newly organized businesses: MSS (Mixed-Signal Solutions) and PAS (Power Analog Solutions). While actual results may vary, Magnachip currently expects the following:

 

For Q2 2024:

  • Consolidated revenue to be in the range of $49 to $54 million, including approximately $1.5 million of Transitional Foundry Services.
    • MSS revenue to be in the range of $9.5 to $11.5 million. This compares with MSS equivalent revenue of $9.0 million in Q1 2024 and $12.4 million in Q2 2023
    • PAS revenue to be in the range of $38 to $41 million. This compares with PAS equivalent revenue of $36.5 million in Q1 2024 and $39 million in Q2 2023.
  • Consolidated gross profit margin to be in the range of 17% to 19%.
    • MSS gross profit margin to be in the range of 30% to 33%. This compares with MSS equivalent gross profit margin of 44.6% in Q1 2024, which included non-recurring engineering revenue, and 36.4% in Q2 2023.
    • PAS gross profit margin to be in the range of 15% to 17%, primarily as a result of the impact of idle capacity from the expected decline in Transitional Foundry Services revenue. This compares with PAS equivalent gross profit margin of 15.4% in Q1 2024 and 23.1% in Q2 2023.

 

For the full-year 2024, we reiterate our prior guidance:

  • MSS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with MSS equivalent revenue of $44.4 million in 2023.
  • PAS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with PAS equivalent revenue of $151.3 million in 2023.
  • Consolidated revenue flat-to-up-slightly year-over-year as recovery in MSS and PAS is offset by the phase-out of Transitional Foundry Services.
  • Consolidated gross profit margin between 17% to 20%, primarily as a result of the impact of idle capacity expected from the phase-out of Transitional Foundry Services. This compares with the consolidated gross profit margin of 22.4% in 2023.

EBITDA for the periods indicated is defined as net loss before interest income, interest expense, income tax benefit and depreciation and amortization.

We prepare Adjusted Net Loss by adjusting net loss 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 Net Loss is particularly useful because it reflects the impact of our asset base and capital structure on our operating performance. We define Adjusted Net Loss for the periods as net loss, adjusted to exclude (i) Equity-based compensation expense, (ii) Foreign currency loss (gain), net, (iii) Derivative valuation loss (gain), net, (iv) Early termination charges and (v) Income tax effect on non-GAAP adjustments.
