Neubiberg, 3 August 2023 – Today, Infineon Technologies AG is reporting results for the third quarter of its 2023 fiscal year (period ended 30 June 2023).

 

We have strongly performed in the past quarter, while Semiconductor market trends continue to present a mixed picture with both light and shade," says Jochen Hanebeck, CEO of Infineon. "On the one hand, in electromobility, renewable energy and related application areas, demand has stayed high. On the other hand, demand for consumer applications, such as PCs and smartphones remains low. Infineon is performing well in this challenging market environment thanks to its persistent focus on structural growth drivers for the digital transformation and the transition to a green economy. This is why we take a forward-looking long-term approach and are investing in additional manufacturing capacity."

GROUP PERFORMANCE IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF THE 2023 FISCAL YEAR

In the third quarter of the 2023 fiscal year, Group revenue was €4,089 million. Compared with revenue in the prior quarter of €4,119 million, this was a decrease of 1 percent corresponding to the slight decline in the US dollar in comparison with the second quarter. Revenue in the Automotive (ATV) and Green Industrial Power (GIP) segments increased slightly. In the Power & Sensor Systems (PSS) segment, revenue decreased slightly, while revenue in the Connected Secure Systems (CSS) segment declined somewhat faster.

In the third quarter of the current fiscal year, adjusted earnings per share3 (diluted) was €0.68, compared with €0.69 in the second quarter of the current fiscal year.

Depreciation and amortization in the third quarter of the 2023 fiscal year amounted to €441 million, compared with €434 million in the second quarter of the 2023 fiscal year.

Financial debt decreased from €5,428 million at the end of March 2023 to €4,679 million at the end of the third quarter as a result of the scheduled repayment of due capital market liabilities of €752 million. The net cash position at 30 June 2023 was net financial debt of €1,693 million, compared with net financial debt of €1,982 million at the end of the prior quarter.

 

OUTLOOK FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER OF THE 2023 FISCAL YEAR

Based on an assumed exchange rate of US$1.10 to the euro, Infineon expects to generate revenue of around €4 billion in the fourth quarter of the 2023 fiscal year. Within the four segments, ATV, GIP, PSS and CSS, revenue is expected to remain about stable in the fourth quarter compared with the previous quarter. Based on the revenue forecast for the group, the Segment Result Margin should be around 25 percent. One of the main reasons for this is the increase in idle costs compared with the prior quarter.

 

OUTLOOK FOR THE 2023 FISCAL YEAR

Infineon expects unchanged to generate revenue of around €16.2 billion in the 2023 fiscal year, based on an assumed exchange rate of US$1.10 to the euro. This is equivalent to a growth rate of 14 percent compared with the 2022 fiscal year. Revenue growth for both the ATV and GIP segments is expected to be above the average rate for the Group. In the CSS segment, revenue is likely to grow at around the average rate for the Group, while revenue in the PSS segment is expected to be lower than in the prior year. Based on expected revenue of around €16.2 billion, it is anticipated that the adjusted gross margin should be around 47 percent and the Segment Result Margin around 27 percent.

 

Investments – which Infineon defines as the sum of investments in property, plant and equipment, investments in other intangible assets and capitalized development costs – are planned at around €3.0 billion for the 2023 fiscal year. The focus here is on the construction of the third manufacturing module on the Kulim site (Malaysia) designed to produce compound semiconductors, the planned start of construction work on the fourth manufacturing module in Dresden (Germany) designed to produce analog/mixed-signal components and power semiconductors, and the continuing expansion of frontend manufacturing capacity especially in Dresden (Germany) and Villach (Austria).

 

Depreciation and amortization are anticipated to be about €1.8 billion in the 2023 fiscal year, of which approximately €450 million is attributable to purchase price allocations arising mainly from the acquisition of Cypress. Taking the planned investment in frontend buildings into account, Free Cash Flow is forecast to be now around €1.2 billion (previously €1.1 billion). Adjusted Free Cash Flow is expected to reach now around €1.7 billion billion (previously €1.8 billion), which is above 10 percent of the forecast revenue for the year of €16.2 billion.

 

The outlook for Infineon for the 2023 fiscal year is presented without taking into account the planned acquisition of GaN Systems (in particular, not taking into account the purchase price payment), as the transaction is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.

 

3 Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share (diluted) should not be seen as a replacement or superior performance indicator, but rather as additional information to the net income and earnings per share (diluted) determined in accordance with IFRS.
