SEOUL, South Korea–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jul. 31, 2024– Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation (NYSE: MX) (“Magnachip” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for the second quarter 2024.

YJ Kim, Magnachip’s CEO, commented, “Our Q2 revenue was above the mid-point of guidance and gross margin was better than expected. Revenue in our Standard Products Business, which is comprised of our MSS and PAS businesses, increased sequentially by double digits in Q2. We benefited from a recovery in our Power business, increased demand for OLED drivers for China smartphones and European autos, and an upturn in Power IC demand for OLED IT panels and LED TVs.”

YJ Kim added, “Looking ahead, we currently expect Standard Product Business revenue will increase sequentially once again in Q3, driven by leaner distribution channels in Power, as well as seasonality, and an increase in OLED and Power IC businesses.”

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.

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

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. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $802 thousand of one-time employee incentives.

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. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $802 thousand of one-time employee incentives.

韩国首尔,2024 7 30 Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation(以下简称“美格纳”或“公司”)(NYSE:MX)当日宣布,公司发布了面向智能手机电池保护电路的第 8 代 MXT LV MOSFET1

美格纳首次在公司的新款 12V 双 N 通道 MOSFET (MDWC12D024PERH) 中引入其专属超短通道 FET II (SSCFET® II) 技术。SSCFET® II 是美格纳的最新设计技术,可显著缩短通道长度,从而降低RSS(on)2

与相同尺寸的前代产品相比,此款产品的 RSS(on) 降低了约 22%。这降低功率损失,缩短智能手机充电时间,在快充模式下可使智能手机内部温度降低约 12%。

随着全球智能手机制造商在智能手机中提升 AI 功能,MOSFET 产品的重要性在不断增强。美格纳的新款 12V MXT LV MOSFET 具备较高的电源效率,经优化可适用于高端智能手机中的各种电池保护应用,尤其是设备端 AI 智能手机

根据市调机构 Omdia 的数据估测,从 2024 年到 2028 年,设备端 AI 智能手机的发货量有望平均每年增长 50%,到 2028 年将达到 6.06 亿台。

“去年早期在开发超短通道 FET I 技术并与成功推出相应产品后,美格纳现在发布了升级的超短通道 FET II 技术,”美格纳首席执行官 YJ Kim 说。“我们计划继续开发创新性的高密度单元沟槽技术,并于今年下半年推出面向智能手机、智能手表和耳机的先进电源解决方案。”

公司的各种 IGBT MXT MV MOSFET1 产品为太阳能市场提供了优化的解决方案

Magnachip’s solar energy power product lineup_cn

 

韩国首尔,2024 年 7 月 29 日 – – Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation(以下简称“美格纳”或“公司”)(NYSE:MX)当日宣布,公司完成了 1200V 75A 绝缘栅双极晶体管(Insulate-Gate Bipolar Transistor—IGBT)的开发,这款产品采用 TO-247PLUS 封装,设计用于太阳能逆变器。公司计划于今年十月开始进行量产。

美格纳在 2020 年进入太阳能逆变器市场时推出了 1200V 40A IGBT (MBQ40T120QFS),并在 2022 年开始提供 650V 75A IGBT (MBQ75T65PEH)。现在,公司发布了最新的 1200V 75A IGBT (MBQA75T120RFS),这款产品采用美格纳的先进设计技术和工艺。

这款新产品采用 TO-247PLUS 封装,配备一个宽型散热器,相比 TO-247 封装,提高了散热性能。此外,与该公司的前代产品相比,导通损耗降低超过 14%,提升了电源效率。这一性能的改善确保了产品即使在过载状态下也能稳定运行,从而提高系统稳定性。

此外,新款 IGBT 产品具备相当于两个 40A IGBT 的性能,可实现灵活的应用设计。另外一项重要特性是融入了快速恢复二极管并联量测技术,可快速消除多余电流,降低开关损耗,同时保证最高 175°C 的工作结温。此款产品根据电子设备工程联合委员会 (JEDEC) 发布的标准设计,适合需要严格额定功率和高效率的各种应用,包括太阳能逆变器、转换器、不间断电源系统和通用电源逆变器。

根据市调机构 Omdia 的数据,从 2024 年到 2028 年,可再生能源市场中的分立型 IGBT 和基于硅的 MOSFET 领域有望实现 15% 的年复合增长率。

“随着这款新产品的发布,美格纳的太阳能电源产品阵容进一步增强,现在可提供高性能的 IGBT 和 MXT MV MOSFET,能够满足太阳能市场中各种应用的技术要求 ”,美格纳首席执行官金荣俊说。“我们将继续供应面向可再生能源应用的创新性电源解决方案,并充分利用行业中的发展机会。”
