Revenue Weakness: Q3 revenue was $45.9 million, down 13.3% year-over-year and 3.5% sequentially, mainly due to pricing pressure and lower fab utilization, especially in China.
Gross Margin Drop: Q3 gross margin fell to 18.6%, at the low end of guidance, and Q4 margin is expected to drop further to 8–10% due to a one-time $2.5 million incentive program.
Cost-Cutting Actions: Management is aggressively reducing OpEx and CapEx, including workforce reductions of more than 20% and cutting Gumi fab upgrade CapEx by over 50%.
Product Portfolio Shift: Focus is on launching new-generation power products, with 50 new-generation products expected in 2025 versus only 4 in 2024. The ramp-up of these products is expected to take several quarters.
Strategic Alternatives: The Board continues to review all strategic options for the company, with management emphasizing transparency going forward.
Hyundai Mobis Agreement: Magnachip signed a licensing deal with Hyundai Mobis for IGBT technology, with first revenue expected in 2027.
2026 Outlook: Q4 2025 is expected to be the trough for revenue and margins; management guides for double-digit sequential revenue growth in Q1 2026 but warns that gross margin headwinds will persist into 2026.
