Action:ReiteratedDate:02/14/26
The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (losses, compressed margins, and negative free cash flow), partially offset by a resilient balance sheet and constructive technical trend. Earnings-call signals point to improving demand and sequential growth, but near-term cash flow and margin pressure from high CapEx and Newport/input costs limit upside. Valuation remains less compelling due to negative earnings despite a moderate dividend yield.
Positive Factors
Diversified product and end-market exposure
Vishay’s broad product mix (discrete semiconductors and passives) and exposure to multiple end markets reduces reliance on any single cyclical sector. Durable design-win driven revenue and repeat purchases across OEMs/EMS smooth demand swings and support long-term revenue resiliency.
Negative Factors
Material margin compression
A persistent ~10 percentage point drop in gross margin signals structural pressures from weaker pricing, mix shifts, input-cost inflation and under-absorbed fixed costs. Lower margins materially reduce operating leverage and the company’s ability to convert revenue growth into durable earnings and surplus cash flow.

Vishay Intertechnology Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 04, 2026
(Q4-2025)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:May 13, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call presents a predominantly constructive operational picture: revenue growth, strong bookings and backlog, product and capacity investments, improved working capital and positive cash generation in the quarter, and meaningful product/technology milestones (Gen3 trench MOSFETs, reference designs). Offsetting risks include margin pressure from the Newport fab and elevated materials costs, higher SG&A, short-term capital intensity leading to expected negative free cash flow in 2026, and some segment/region seasonality. Overall, the company emphasized improving demand momentum and execution under its Vishay 3.0 plan and guided toward sequential revenue growth and near‑term margin stabilization.Positive Updates
Quarterly Revenue Beat and Sequential Growth
Q4 revenue was $801M, slightly above the midpoint guidance of $790M and up ~1.3% sequentially (company commentary; CFO cited +1% sequential). Revenue increased 12% year-over-year, driven by an 11% increase in volume and a favorable FX tailwind (~+3%), partially offset by a ~1% decline in average selling prices.
Negative Updates
Newport Fab Drag on Margins
Newport fab reduced segment gross margin materially: company-level commentary cites ~130 basis points negative impact on gross margin; MOSFET segment impact noted at ~600 bps (improved from 720 bps in Q3). Newport drag expected 50–75 bps in Q1 with neutral/ accretive contribution thereafter.

Company Guidance
Management guided Q1 revenue of $800–$830 million with sequential revenue increases expected across its five key growth segments (automotive electronic content, industrial power, healthcare, aerospace & defense, and AI computing), and a gross margin target of 19.9% ±50 bps (including tariffs and higher input costs) with a Newport drag of ~50–75 bps that they expect to be gross‑profit neutral by quarter end and accretive thereafter. They forecast Q1 depreciation of ~$55 million (2026 full‑year depreciation ~$218 million), quarterly SG&A of $153 million ±$2 million (to be maintained each quarter), Q1 tax expense of $2–$4 million, and 2026 CapEx of $400–$440 million (more than half for the 12‑inch fab, largely spent in H1). Finally, they expect negative free cash flow in 2026 due to capacity investments, will continue to draw on US revolver liquidity as needed, and remain committed to returning at least 70% of free cash flow to shareholders.Vishay Intertechnology Financial Statement Overview
