AXT Inc. reports Q1 adjusted EPS (1c), consensus (5c)

Reports Q1 revenue $26.9M, consensus $26.22M. This is an incredibly exciting time for AXT,” said Morris Young, chief executive officer. “Last week we completed a capital raise for $632.5 million in support of Tongmei’s indium phosphide capacity expansion as well as R&D investment in new products like 6-inch indium phosphide. Indium phosphide substrates are a key ingredient in high-speed optical data transmission required in AI focused data centers. Thanks goes to our investors who are helping us address the strong demand we are seeing. As the market continues to grow, capacity will become a critical enabler. Longer-term capacity planning is one of the most important discussions we are having today with customers and major supply chain players in our space. The message we have for them is this: AXT is stepping up. We believe we are in the best position to support and enable our industry in meeting the current and future needs.”
