Decline in Navitas Semiconductor's Stock Price This Week Explained
Navitas Semiconductor, a leading player in the semiconductor industry, has outlined its ambitious plans for the coming years. The company, which focuses on supporting the next generation of AI data centers, is aiming to complete final supplier selections and system designs by 2026, in preparation for volume production in 2027.
The company's second-quarter results, released this week, showed losses, but earnings were in line with analyst expectations. Despite the current financial challenges, Navitas Semiconductor is optimistic about its future prospects. CEO Gene Sheridan believes that Navitas' technologies can support a 100x increase in server rack power capacity for AI data centers.
Investors should prepare for potential dilution of their shareholding in Navitas Semiconductor. The company plans to raise capital to support its investment, achieved through the sale of 20 million shares, which may dilute the claims of existing shareholders on future profits and cash flows.
Navitas Semiconductor has entered into a significant partnership with Nvidia to support the next generation of 800V data centers. The new data centers, designed to address the question of power demand to fuel AI data centers, have a fundamentally different architecture. Navitas' silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) solutions play a key role in the power train architecture of these new data centers.
Initial customer evaluations are complete, with final engineering samples expected in Q4. The customers who accepted the final inspections of Navitas Semiconductor are primarily electronic device manufacturers and tech companies. The mass production of Navitas Semiconductor products is expected to begin in late 2024.
Profitability for Navitas Semiconductor is expected to be realized after volume production in 2027. The partnership with Nvidia is a significant aspect of the case for buying Navitas Semiconductor. However, it's important to note that the company is expected to make losses over the next few years.
Navitas Semiconductor's share price fell by 14.7% in the week to Friday morning, reflecting the current financial challenges faced by the company. Despite this, the company remains confident about its future prospects and is committed to delivering on its promises.
