The earnings call presented a mixed picture with several strategic highlights such as increased bookings, significant investments in technology, and growth in automotive electronics. However, these were offset by lowlights including a decrease in net sales, reduced gross margins, an operating loss, and challenges in the Korean market due to tariffs.

Company Guidance

During the Data I/O Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Conference Call, the company provided guidance reflecting both challenges and opportunities. Net sales for Q2 2025 were $5.0 million, a decrease from $6.2 million in Q1 2025 but slightly up from $5.1 million in Q2 2024. Bookings showed improvement, with $5.8 million in Q2 2025, up from $4.6 million in Q1 2025. The automotive electronics segment represented 66% of bookings, up from 59% in 2024. Gross margin declined to 49.8% from 51.6% in Q1 2025, influenced by product mix and large customer orders. Operating expenses increased to $3.8 million, driven by $480,000 in onetime investments primarily in technology and human resources. The company expects to announce a permanent CFO in Q3 2025, with some double spending anticipated. Data I/O remains optimistic about its technology investments, particularly in UFS flash memory and NVMe technologies, which are projected to have annual CAGRs of 14% through 2030. The company plans to introduce new products at six major events in the second half of 2025, aiming to enhance lead generation and diversify beyond the automotive market.

Second quarter 2025 bookings were $5.8 million, up from $4.6 million in the first quarter of 2025 and $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, indicating a positive trend in order activity.
