AOS Chief Executive Officer Stephen Chang commented, “Our fiscal
Q2 results were in-line with our revenue and EPS guidance driven by
seasonal declines in each of our major segments. We saw strength in
Communications and Industrial segments, with notable sequential
growth in graphics cards, quick chargers, PC desktops and power
tools.”
Mr. Chang concluded, “We expect a typical seasonal decline in
the March quarter primarily in markets for battery PCM in
smartphones and quick chargers. While visibility is limited for the
remainder of calendar year 2025, we are well positioned for growth
driven by our strategic focus to ‘go deeper’ with total solutions,
expanding our addressable markets and achieving higher BOM content
and market share.”
Business Outlook for Fiscal Q3 Ending March 31, 2025
The following statements are based on management’s current
expectations. These statements are forward-looking, and actual
results may differ materially. AOS undertakes no obligation to
update these statements.
Our expectations for the fiscal third quarter of year 2025 are
as follows:
- Revenue to be approximately $158 million, plus or minus $10
million.
- GAAP gross margin to be 21.5%, plus or minus 1%. We anticipate
non-GAAP gross margin to be 22.5%, plus or minus 1%. The expected
quarter-over-quarter decline is largely due to the decrease in
license and engineering service revenue and, to a lesser extent,
the anticipated increase in manufacturing costs during the Lunar
New Year period.
- GAAP operating expenses to be in the range of $46.5 million,
plus or minus $1 million. Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected
to be in the range of $39.5 million, plus or minus $1 million.
- Interest expense to be approximately equal to interest income,
and
- Income tax expense to be in the range of $1.1 million to $1.3
million.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that are
based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections
of future performance based on management’s judgment, beliefs,
current trends, and anticipated product performance. These
forward-looking statements include, without limitation, market
trends in the semiconductor industry and growth in calendar year
2025, our ability to outperform market, seasonality of our
business, our ability to pursue new opportunities, our projected
amount of revenue, gross margin, operating income (loss), income
tax expenses, net income (loss), and share-based compensation
expenses, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses,
income tax expenses, our ability to grow our sales and market
share, and other information under the section entitled “Business
Outlook for Fiscal Q3 Ending March 31, 2025.” Forward-looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual
results to differ materially from those contained in the
forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not
limited to, the state of semiconductor industry and seasonality of
our markets; decline of PC markets; our lack of control over the
joint venture in China; difficulties and challenges in executing
our diversification strategy into different market segments;
ordering pattern from distributors and seasonality; changes in
regulatory environment and government investigation; our ability to
introduce or develop new and enhanced products that achieve market
acceptance; government policies on our business operations in
China; the actual product performance in volume production; the
quality and reliability of our product, our ability to achieve
design wins; the general business and economic conditions; our
ability to maintain factory utilization at a desirable level; and
other risks as described in our SEC filings, including our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 filed
by AOS with the SEC and other periodic reports we filed with the
SEC. Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying
assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual
results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in
the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee
future results, level of activity, performance, or achievements.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements. All information provided in this press release is as of
today’s date, unless otherwise stated, and AOS undertakes no duty
to update such information, except as required under applicable
law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements
presented on a basis consistent with U.S. GAAP, we disclose certain
non-GAAP financial measures for our historical performance,
including non-GAAP gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses,
operating income (loss), net income (loss), diluted earnings per
share (“EPS”) and EBITDAS. These supplemental measures exclude,
among other items, share-based compensation expenses, legal and
professional fees related to government investigation, amortization
of purchased intangible, income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments
and equity method investment loss from equity investee. We also
disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures in our guidance for
the next quarter, including non-GAAP gross margin and operating
expenses. We believe that these historical and forecast non-GAAP
financial measures provide useful information to both management
and investors by excluding certain items and expenses that are not
indicative of our core operating results or do not reflect our
normal business operations. In addition, our management uses
non-GAAP measures to compare our performance relative to forecasts
and to benchmark our performance externally against competitors.
Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in
that such non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly
comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the
terms used in this press release, such as non-GAAP net income
(loss) or non-GAAP operating expenses, do not have a standardized
meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named
measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide
investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to
other companies. In addition, we included the amount of income tax
effect of non-GAAP adjustments in the non-GAAP net income (loss) of
reconciliation table for all periods presented as the management
believes that such non-GAAP presentation provides useful
information to investors, even though the amounts are not
significant. We seek to compensate for the limitation of our
non-GAAP presentation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the
non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S.
GAAP measures both in the text in this press release and in the
tables attached hereto. Investors are encouraged to review the
related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of
these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable
U.S. GAAP financial measures.
