Infineon more positive on revenue outlook after Q1 stronger than expected
It expects revenue for the fiscal year until end-September 2025 to be flat to slightly up compared with the prior year
GERMAN chipmaker Infineon slightly revised up its full-year revenue outlook on Tuesday (Feb 4) due to expected currency effects after a fall in fiscal first-quarter revenue was not as bad as expected.
Infineon said it now expects revenue for the fiscal year until end-September 2025 to be flat to slightly up compared with the prior year, after previously saying it was expected to decline slightly, based on a lower exchange rate of the euro to the dollar.
“Infineon has held up well in a weak market environment, closing its first quarter slightly ahead of expectations,” said Infineon CEO Jochen Hanebeck in a statement.
The Munich-based manufacturer reported first-quarter revenue had fallen by 8 per cent to 3.4 billion euros (S$4.76 billion), versus a company-provided analyst forecast for revenue to come in at 3.2 billion euros.
The segment result margin – management’s preferred measure of operating profitability – also came as a positive surprise at 16.7 per cent, beating the forecast for 15 per cent. REUTERS
