Q1 and 2024 Financial Guidance
Beginning in Q1, the Company will begin reporting results under its newly organized businesses: MSS (Mixed-Signal Solutions) and PAS (Power-Analog Solutions).
While actual results may vary, Magnachip currently expects the following:
For Q1 2024:
|
|
|
Consolidated revenue to be in the range of $46 to $51 million, including approximately $3 million of
Transitional Foundry Services. |
|
|
|
MSS revenue to be in the range of $8 to $10 million. This compares with MSS equivalent revenue of
$8.6 million in Q4 2023. |
|
|
|
PAS revenue to be in the range of $35 to $38 million. This compares with PAS equivalent revenue of
$32.6 million in Q4 2023. |
|
|
|
Consolidated gross profit margin to be in the range of 17% to 20%. |
|
|
|
MSS gross profit margin to be in the range of 40% to 43%, which includes the positive impact of expected one-time non-recurring engineering revenue. This compares with MSS equivalent gross profit margin of 41.3% in Q4 2023, which also included
one-time non-recurring engineering revenue. |
|
|
|
PAS gross profit margin to be in the range of 15% to 18% due primarily to the expected decline in Transitional
Foundry Services revenue. This compares with PAS equivalent gross profit margin of 18.0% in Q4 2023. |
For the full-year 2024:
|
|
|
MSS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with MSS equivalent revenue of $44.4 million in
2023. |
|
|
|
PAS revenue to grow double digits year-over-year as compared with PAS equivalent revenue of $151.3 million
in 2023. |
|
|
|
Consolidated revenue flat-to-up-slightly year-over-year as recovery in MSS and PAS is offset by the phase-out of Transitional Foundry Services. |
|
|
|
Consolidated gross profit margin between 17% to 20% due to idle capacity expected from the phase-out of Transitional Foundry Services. This compares with the consolidated gross profit margin of 22.4% in 2023. |
