SKYT expects total revenues between $59 million and $63 million for the first quarter, of which $1 million is expected to be tool revenues, and $6 million is likely to be Wafer Services revenues.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter 2025 revenues is pegged at $61.05 million, suggesting a 23.3% year-over-year decline.
Non-GAAP earnings are expected to be 10-16 cents per share for the first quarter of 2025.
The consensus mark for the first-quarter 2025 bottom line is pegged at a loss of 13 cents per share, unchanged over the past 30 days. This indicates a wider loss from the year-ago quarter's loss of 8 cents.
SkyWater’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the trailing four quarters and missed once, delivering an earnings surprise of 179.29%, on average. (Find the latest EPS estimates and surprises on Zacks Earnings Calendar.)
Let us see how things have shaped up for the upcoming announcement.
Key Factors to Note Ahead of SKYT’s Q1 Results
SkyWater is expected to have seen a boost in its first-quarter 2025 results from improved wafer services revenues. This uptick is likely to have resulted from continued product innovation and strategic conversions from Advanced Technology Services (ATS) to wafer services, highlighting SkyWater’s efforts to diversify its revenue base and strengthen operational efficiency.
SKYT is expected to have benefited in the first quarter of 2025 from early traction with ThermaView solutions, reflecting strong momentum across growth initiatives. Supported by Raytheon Vision Systems, this initiative positions SkyWater to capitalize on the growing demand in defense, industrial and healthcare markets.
Momentum around the Fab 25 acquisition is expected to have positively impacted the first quarter of 2025, as the 200mm fab is projected to add $300 million in annual wafer service revenues and significantly expand SkyWater’s domestic manufacturing capacity. This momentum is expected to have translated into stronger customer confidence, early-stage operational gains and a meaningful boost to the quarter under review.
However, growing uncertainty over the U.S. federal government budget and extended negotiations are expected to have affected SkyWater’s first-quarter 2025 performance, with delays or reductions in ATS revenues.
