Navitas Semiconductor Announces Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results and Acquisition of GeneSiC, an Industry-leading SiC Company

•Revenues Increased 58% with important market and regional diversification, while guidance reflects short-term China smartphone softness
•20+ significant new wins in mobile chargers, plus accelerating progress in customer development in the solar, EV, data center and industrial markets
•GeneSiC acquisition positions Navitas as the only pure-play, next-generation power semiconductor company with broad diversification, synergistic customers and 2-3 year acceleration into strategic EV, solar and energy storage markets

El Segundo, CA., August 15, 2022 — Navitas Semiconductor Corporation (Nasdaq: NVTS), the industry leader in next-generation power semiconductors, today announced unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Net revenues for the quarter increased to $8.6 million, up 58% from the second quarter of 2021. GAAP gross margin was 41.6%, compared to 45.5% in the second quarter of 2021.
GAAP loss from operations for the quarter was $20.0 million, compared to a loss of $18.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. On a non-GAAP basis, loss from operations for the quarter was $8.9 million, compared to $5.8 million in Q2 2021. GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.26, compared to a GAAP loss of $0.89 per share in the second quarter of 2021, while non-GAAP net loss for the quarter was $0.07 per share compared to a net loss of $0.28 per share in Q2 2021.
Navitas also announced the acquisition of GeneSiC Semiconductor, a silicon carbide (SiC) pioneer with deep expertise in SiC power device design and process. The acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive to Navitas’ earnings per share. Total consideration consisted of approximately $100 million in cash, 24.9 million shares of Navitas stock and possible earn-out payments of up to $25 million conditioned on the achievement of substantial revenue targets for the GeneSiC business over the four fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2023. GeneSiC is highly profitable, with EBITDA margins of more than 25%, total calendar 2022 revenues expected to be approximately $25 million and demonstrated annual growth rates of over 60%. The combined company creates a comprehensive, industry-leading technology portfolio in next-generation power semiconductors - both GaN and SiC – with an aggregate market opportunity estimated at over $20 billion per year by 2026.

"I am pleased with our second quarter performance and we are truly excited by our acquisition of GeneSiC,” said Gene Sheridan, CEO and co-founder. “While we see significant softness in the China smartphone market, our leadership in the GaN mobile charger market has never been stronger. In the second quarter, we added over twenty new customer launches, set new industry benchmarks in ultra-fast charging, and achieved significant progress in our expansion markets of data center, solar and EV.”

“With the acquisition of GeneSiC, Navitas has become the industry’s only pure-play, next-generation power semiconductor company. GeneSiC is an ideal SiC partner for Navitas with its industry-leading performance, world-class robustness, and the broadest product portfolio in SiC from 650V to 6,500V. They have focused on core SiC technology, while Navitas has invested significantly in global sales, operations and technical support teams, along with system design centers in EV and data centers – all of which can be immediately leveraged to accelerate GeneSiC’s already fast-growing business. With GeneSiC’s 500 diverse and synergistic customers, we now have immediate revenue in solar, EV, energy storage and many other diversified industrial markets.”

Navitas’ recent acquisition of VDD Tech and its digital-isolator technology is a great combination for both GaN and SiC higher power applications, adding up to $4 of system content and opening up an additional $1 billion annual market opportunity for Navitas.

Second Quarter Navitas GaN Highlights

•Over 20 new GaN fast- and ultra-fast chargers were launched in Q2.


◦New GaN smartphone chargers include Motorola edge+ (in-box 68W), vivo X-Fold (in-box 80W), OnePlus Ace/10R and 10T 5G (in-box 150W), plus the vivo iQOO 10 and 10 Pro smartphones with 120W and record-setting 200W in-box chargers – achieving a new industry-benchmark with 0-100% charging in less than 10 minutes.
◦Aftermarket GaN chargers include Anker’s GaNPrime™ series (120-150W), and Belkin’s 108W 4-port GaN charger, now available in the Apple Store.
◦New laptop GaN chargers include Xiaomi Redmi (in-box 100W), Lenovo Legion (135W) and Dell XPS 13 Pro (in-box 60W).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and statements in our public webcast include financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which we refer to as “non-GAAP financial measures,” including (i) non-GAAP gross margin, (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses, (iii) non-GAAP net loss from operations, and (iv) non-GAAP net loss per share. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted from GAAP results to exclude certain expenses, which are outlined in the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” tables below. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about our operating performance and enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures offer an additional view of our operations that, when coupled with the GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of the results of operations. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

There may be additional risks that Navitas is not aware of or that Navitas currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Navitas’ expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. Navitas anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause Navitas’ assessments to change. However, while Navitas may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Navitas specifically disclaims any obligation to do so.
