CAMARILLO, Calif.: Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a high-performance semiconductor, IoT systems and cloud connectivity service provider, today reported unaudited financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2025, which ended January 26, 2025.

"Fiscal year 2025 represented a year of positive inflection on many fronts, with sequential improvement for each quarter reported in net sales, gross margin, operating margin and earnings per share," said Hong Hou, Semtech's president and chief executive officer. "In the new fiscal year, we are intently focusing on three core priorities to position Semtech for future success: portfolio optimization and simplification, strategic investment in research and development and driving margin expansion, all which we believe will deliver greater value to our shareholders."

"Operating cash flow also reflected a positive inflection in our business and is expected to further benefit from lower cash interest requirements stemming from our debt reduction," said Mark Lin, Semtech's executive vice president and chief financial officer. "We executed to our previously stated capital allocation priority of reducing debt, with net debt as of the end of fiscal year 2025 decreasing 68% year-over-year, which we believe provides a stable financial foundation for long-term growth."
