Silicom Reports Q2 2024 Results & Update of Strategic Plan

Published

2 years ago

on

KFAR SAVA, Israel, July 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SILC), a leading provider of high-performance networking and data infrastructure solutions, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, and provided an update regarding the Strategic Plan announced on February 1st.  

Financial Results

Second quarter: Silicom’s revenues for the second quarter of 2024 were $14.5 million compared with $38.1 million for the second quarter of 2023.

On a GAAP basis, the company’s net loss for the quarter totalled $(1.5) million, or $(0.25) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with net income of $3.8 million, or $0.56 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the second quarter of 2023.

On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), net loss for the quarter totalled $(0.9) million, or $(0.14) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with net income of $4.5 million, or $0.66 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the second quarter of 2023.

First Six Months: Silicom’s revenues for the first half of 2024 were $28.9 million compared with $75.3 million for the first half of 2023.

On a GAAP basis, net loss for the period totalled $(4.9) million, or $(0.80) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with net income of $7.3 million, or $1.07 per diluted share ($1.09 per basic share), for the first half of 2023.

On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), net loss for the period totalled $(3.2) million, or $(0.52) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with net income of $8.6 million, or $1.27 per diluted share ($1.28 per basic share), for the first half of 2023.

During the first half of 2024, the Company generated more than $13 million in cash, and invested approximately half of that, about $6.6 million, in repurchasing Silicom shares. 

Guidance

In light of longer-than-expected sales cycles, the prolonged excess inventory digestion periods of several large customers and the global economic slowdown, Management projects that revenues for the third quarter of 2024 will range from $14 million to $15 million, and expects that revenues for the second half of 2024 as a whole to be similar to those of the first half.

Share Repurchase Plan

During the first half of the year, the Company repurchased approximately 410,000 of its ordinary shares at an investment of approximately $6.6 million. This was in line with the Strategic Plan, which calls for the acquisition in total of 1.6 million shares. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased in the future will depend upon a variety of factors, including share market price and general business and market conditions.

Comments of Management  

Liron Eizenman, Silicom’s President and CEO, commented, “The second quarter was another period of focused execution in line with our Strategic Plan, which has stabilized our expenses and brought a clear focus to our sales and R&D activities. As a result, we now have an exceptionally broad and deep pipeline of high-potential sales opportunities, making us even more optimistic about our long-term prospects. In parallel, however, we continue to be impacted by the market’s slowed sales cycles, which have significantly lengthened the timeframes of our Design Win processes and sales ramp-ups. This is having a negative impact on our revenues that is likely to persist for several more quarters through 2024 and 2025. As such, we have now extended our Strategic Plan by one year, with strong annual growth rates of 20%-30% expected to materialize from 2026 and to lead to over $3 Earnings Per Share (EPS) on annual revenues of $150 – $160 million.”

Mr. Eizenman continued, “While our guidance is conservative, we are excited by the upside potential of our pipeline, whose many opportunities could each generate annual revenues of $5 – $20 million. These range from low/mid-range networking solution customers evolving towards our higher-end offerings, to greenfield customers expressing interest in our latest FPGAs and Smart NICs, to existing Smart NIC customers migrating towards our full systems, and more. Promising talks are underway regarding large energy, retail, restaurant chains and connected vehicle operators evaluating our new line of ruggedized systems, and with SASE customers who already look to Silicom as a critical supplier.”

Mr. Eizenman concluded, “As we pursue these opportunities, we continue with the strict discipline, focus and control that has enabled us to remain cash positive throughout this challenging period. We have ‘right-sized’ our workforce, continue to optimize our inventory, and currently hold $78 million in cash. These assets, coupled with our superb products, a bursting pipeline of opportunities and the industry’s best minds, are the raw materials that we will utilize to rebuild Silicom and to achieve our full potential.”

Wistron Celebrates Grand Opening of First U.S. Smart Factory Marking Milestone in Global Smart Manufacturing Strategy

Published

59 minutes ago

on

July 22, 2026

By

FORT WORTH, Texas, July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Wistron Corporation (“Wistron”) celebrated the grand opening of its D1 AI smart facility in Fort Worth, Texas, the site where the first NVIDIA GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip was built and mass-produced in the United States. The US$ 700 million facility, spanning approximately 324,000 square foot, was officially unveiled during a ceremony led by Wistron Chairman Simon Lin and NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang. Jessica Rogers, Director of the Economic Development Department for the City of Fort Worth, and Alexander Tah-ray Yui, Taiwan’s Representative to the United States, were among the government officials and business leaders who attended, marking a milestone in the expansion of Wistron’s global footprint and advanced manufacturing capabilities.

This is a key hub in Wistron’s global AI infrastructure manufacturing network. The facility runs on NVIDIA accelerated computing and integrates NVIDIA’s Nemotron and Cosmos open frontier models and Omniverse and Metropolis libraries, using digital twin technology to optimize factory design, production workflows, and operational efficiency. It is Wistron’s first U.S.-based manufacturing facility, established to serve customers locally and produce NVIDIA’s most advanced and cutting-edge products. Wistron Chairman Simon Lin said “The operation here is not typical manufacturing. It is new, very comprehensive, and high-tech. Right now we produce the NVIDIA GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip, and beyond, we are also going to produce the NVIDIA Vera Rubin Superchip here. In the next couple of years, this location will be one of the most important, as we build AI infrastructure here in the United States. I think this is the reason we say that there will be the next chapter, and we are going to empower AI from Texas.”

Responding to Customer Needs: Texas, the Newest Global Manufacturing Hub
At this pivotal moment for global AI infrastructure, Wistron is drawing on decades of global manufacturing experience to expand its footprint in Texas, a state with a well-established ecosystem for logistics, talent recruitment, and advanced manufacturing. The new D1 facility produces the NVIDIA GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip and soon, the NVIDIA Vera Rubin Superchip — critical to powering the next generation of AI computing. The new Fort Worth facility strengthens a critical upstream layer of the AI infrastructure supply chain by expanding domestic capacity to assemble and test NVIDIA AI systems. These servers can be integrated into NVIDIA DSX infrastructure, with DSX providing the common architecture and technologies needed to deploy and operate energy-efficient AI factories at scale.

One-Stop Operational Ecosystem Strengthens U.S. AI Supply Chain Resilience
Behind every breakthrough in AI computing lies the manufacturing capability to scale it. Wistron is expanding its AI server production capabilities from Taiwan to the United States, guided by a vision of precision, efficiency, and sustainability. This reflects a broader industry shift: AI leadership is determined not only by technological breakthroughs, but also by the operational capability to transform innovation into high-volume production with consistent quality, supply chain resilience, and predictable delivery. By establishing AI infrastructure manufacturing capacity in the United States, Wistron is building a one-stop operational ecosystem spanning manufacturing and after-sales service — shortening delivery timelines and customer support cycles, strengthening supply chain resilience, and laying the foundation for long-term competitive advantage as AI infrastructure continues to scale.

Partnering with NVIDIA to Pioneer a New Model for Smart Manufacturing and Energy Optimization
As the era of physical AI begins, Wistron is extending its smart manufacturing capabilities to the United States, creating a new model for AI infrastructure production built on digital manufacturing, energy optimization, and local operations. Jensen Huang said: “The largest infrastructure buildout in history is underway. Demand for AI factories—the engine of this next industrial revolution—is incredible, and they must be produced everywhere. Together, NVIDIA and Wistron are restoring US advanced manufacturing capacity in Texas, creating skilled jobs and strengthening America’s AI supply chain.” As demand for advanced manufacturing grows in Texas, smarter planning of production loads and energy use will give the plant greater control and flexibility over its electricity needs.

Turning Global Experience into Scalable AI Infrastructure
Simon Lin stressed that the speed the AI era demands comes with its own responsibility. “In the AI era, the pressure of speed is also a form of responsibility,” Lin said. “We don’t just need to build fast; we need to build right.”

The Fort Worth plant will serve as the core engine of Wistron’s U.S. manufacturing operations, the company said, connecting its global production network with ecosystem partners as it scales advanced AI manufacturing. Wistron said that the investment reflects efforts to deepen its technical capabilities, strengthen the resilience and efficiency of global supply chains, and support the next phase of AI infrastructure development.

About Wistron:
Wistron Corporation is a leading global technology service provider delivering advanced ICT products, AI infrastructure, and manufacturing solutions to technology brands worldwide. With more than 63,000 employees across North America, Europe, and Asia, Wistron continues to expand its AI, cloud, and advanced manufacturing capabilities to support the next generation of intelligent computing.

New initiative under NSG Bio Tomorrow will support promising startups developing next-generation approaches in respiratory and neonatal care

SINGAPORE, July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The NSG Bio Tomorrow initiative aims at supporting emerging life sciences startups working on complex challenges in respiratory and neonatal care.

Launched through the support of Chiesi Group, The Impulse initiative will provide a selected startup with one year of NSG Bio membership and access to a dedicated laboratory bench at NSG Bio Singapore. The initiative is designed to help early-stage biotech companies move from promising science toward stronger proof-of-concept work in a fully equipped research environment.

The initiative comes at a time when the biotech industry is increasingly looking for faster, more connected ways to move high-potential science from the lab toward real-world patient impact. For startups, access to infrastructure is only one part of the challenge. Equally important are the right networks, industry visibility, technical environment, and opportunities to engage with partners who understand the path from early discovery to clinical relevance.

The programme will focus on startups developing innovative biotechnological solutions with potential relevance to chronic respiratory diseases and neonatal conditions. Areas of interest include cell therapies, gene therapies, gene-editing technologies, regenerative tissue engineering, engineered or programmable living systems, lung-targeted delivery platforms, preventive approaches, and small-molecule-based approaches.

While NSG Bio is known for providing high-quality laboratory and office infrastructure for biotech companies, NSG Bio Tomorrow focuses on building the programmes, partnerships, and opportunities that help startups grow.

“Biotech companies need more than lab space. They need access, momentum, and the right ecosystem around them,” said Hasyim Sim, Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer, NSG Bio. “Through NSG Bio Tomorrow, we are building initiatives that help promising startups connect with partners, unlock opportunities, and move their science forward. This initiative reflects exactly the kind of role we want to play in the biotech ecosystem.”

“Chiesi is committed to supporting innovation that can make a meaningful difference for patients, and we work with entrepreneurs, researchers and partners to advance meaningful ideas,” said Fabrizio Conicella, Vice President, Center of Open Innovation & Competence at Chiesi Group. “By supporting this NSG Bio Tomorrow initiative, we want to create an opportunity for early-stage innovators to access the infrastructure and ecosystem support needed to develop impactful science in respiratory and neonatal care.”

NSG Bio Tomorrow programme also reinforces Singapore’s position as a growing hub for biotech innovation in Asia, where startups, research institutions, investors, and industry partners are increasingly coming together to support the next generation of healthcare companies.

House Judiciary Committee Passes Bill that Would Prevent Future Immigration Crises: Swift Action Needed by Full House, Says FAIR

WASHINGTON, July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, the House Judiciary Committee passed an updated version of H.R. 2, the landmark border security bill from last congressional session. The bill now awaits consideration by the full House of Representatives. The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) urges Speaker Mike Johnson to schedule a final floor vote as soon as possible.

The Secure Border Act systematically closes the loopholes that allowed the Biden administration to unleash the largest and most damaging wave of illegal immigration in American history. Enactment of this legislation would prevent future anti-borders administrations from shirking their responsibilities to secure our borders and enforce our immigration laws; asserting unlimited discretion to parole inadmissible aliens to enter the country; or releasing millions of illegal aliens into the country, rather than detaining them or returning them to the country from which they entered.

“We congratulate the Judiciary Committee for its swift action on this critical legislation,” said Dale Wilcox, executive director and general counsel of FAIR. “Ending border chaos and rampant illegal immigration was a key reason that Republicans regained control of the White House and both chambers of Congress in the last election. The clock is ticking on the 119th Congress, and Republicans only have a short time to deliver on the promises they made to voters in 2024, before the midterms.

“Right now, our immigration laws are being enforced in the interests of the American people. As the last administration demonstrated, enforcement of those laws is not guaranteed unless Congress acts to prevent similar abuse in the future. Now is the time for decisive action in the House, where this bill can be passed with a simple majority vote, and an opportunity for Senate Majority Leader John Thune to put every member of that body on record before voters go to the polls in the fall,” Wilcox concluded.
