Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The earnings call highlighted strong performance in advanced packaging and thermal compression technologies, along with positive steps in share repurchase programs. However, the company faces challenges in the general semiconductor market due to capacity digestion and global dynamics affecting customer investment decisions. Despite these challenges, there is optimism for growth in the second half of fiscal 2025.Company Guidance
During the Kulicke & Soffa Q1 2025 earnings call, the company provided guidance and key metrics for the upcoming quarters. They reported $166.1 million in revenue for the December quarter, with a 52.4% gross margin and a non-GAAP EPS of $0.37. The company expects March quarter revenue to be approximately $165 million, plus or minus $10 million, with a gross margin of 47% and a non-GAAP EPS of $0.19. Kulicke & Soffa anticipates a broader cyclical recovery in their core markets, including ball and wedge bonding, driven by improvements in the general semiconductor and automotive sectors. They project the advanced packaging market revenue, including thermal compression bonding (TCP), to grow significantly, aiming for $275 to $300 million in 2025. The company also sees a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20% to 25% for the overall TCP market, with frictionless thermal compression (FTC) expected to grow even faster. They remain focused on expanding their TCP portfolio and securing leadership positions in emerging semiconductor technologies.Revenue and Gross Margin
