AXT ( (AXTI) ) has issued an update.
On July 9, 2025, AXT, Inc. announced a preliminary revenue range for the second quarter of 2025, expecting revenues between $17.5 and $18 million, which is below the previously guided $20 to $22 million. This shortfall is attributed to slower issuance of export control permits for gallium arsenide products and weaker demand in China. Despite these challenges, AXT reported increased AI-related demand for indium phosphide in China and received its first export control permits for indium phosphide late in the quarter. The company remains focused on improving gross margins, expecting them to be in the high single digits for Q2 2025.
The most recent analyst rating on (AXTI) stock is a Buy with a $5.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on AXT stock, see the AXTI Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on AXTI Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, AXTI is a Neutral.
AXT’s overall stock score is influenced heavily by financial challenges, including declining revenues and negative cash flow. While technical indicators show positive trends, these are overshadowed by valuation concerns and operational difficulties highlighted in the earnings call. The recent positive corporate event provides a slight uplift but is not enough to offset the broader financial and operational issues.
