By Mill Chart

Last update: Aug 4, 2025

ON SEMICONDUCTOR (NASDAQ:ON) reported mixed second-quarter 2025 results, beating revenue expectations but missing earnings per share (EPS) estimates. Despite better-than-anticipated guidance for the next quarter, the stock faced downward pressure in pre-market trading, reflecting investor caution amid ongoing market uncertainty.

Key Earnings Highlights

  • Revenue: $1.47 billion, down 15.4% year-over-year but slightly above analyst estimates of $1.50 billion.
  • EPS (Non-GAAP): $0.53, in line with consensus expectations but below the estimated $0.55.
  • Q3 2025 Revenue Guidance: Midpoint of $1.52 billion, 1.3% above analysts' projections of $1.50 billion.

Market Reaction

The stock fell approximately 4.3% in pre-market trading following the earnings release. While the revenue beat and optimistic guidance could be seen as positive signals, the year-over-year decline in sales and the EPS miss appear to have weighed on investor sentiment. The broader semiconductor sector has faced headwinds in recent months, and ON Semiconductor’s performance reflects ongoing challenges in demand stabilization.

Management Commentary & Strategic Focus

CEO Hassane El-Khoury emphasized the company’s progress in transforming its business model, citing improved predictability and positioning for long-term growth. Key takeaways from the press release include:

  • Free Cash Flow Allocation: The company returned over 100% of free cash flow year-to-date through share repurchases, signaling confidence in its financial stability.
  • Automotive & Industrial Strength: ON Semiconductor continues to benefit from its focus on automotive and industrial markets, with recent wins like powering Xiaomi’s YU7 Electric SUV lineup using its EliteSiC technology.

Outlook vs. Analyst Estimates

The company’s Q3 revenue guidance of $1.52 billion (midpoint) is slightly above the consensus estimate of $1.50 billion, suggesting management expects gradual improvement. However, full-year revenue estimates remain at $6.12 billion, implying a cautious but stable recovery trajectory.

Conclusion

ON Semiconductor’s Q2 results reflect resilience in a challenging semiconductor environment, with revenue outperforming expectations but profitability lagging slightly. The market’s reaction suggests investors remain wary of broader industry pressures despite the company’s strategic positioning.
