Insights
SkyWater Technology's Q4 and full-year 2024 results reveal a company in strategic transition, successfully pivoting from a traditional foundry to a technology development partner with improving profitability metrics. The record annual revenue of $342.3 million (19% YoY growth) and shift to positive non-GAAP EPS of $0.06 mark significant milestones in the company's post-IPO transformation.
The company's revenue mix demonstrates this strategic evolution: ATS development revenue grew 13% to $238.6 million while Wafer Services declined 56% to $26.9 million. This transition toward higher-value development services has enabled SkyWater to achieve profitability despite the significant gross margin dilution from the $76.8 million in Tools revenue (which reduced non-GAAP gross margins by 480 basis points).
The Q1 2025 revenue guidance of $59-63 million represents a substantial sequential decline of approximately
SkyWater's strategic positioning as "America's Foundry" aligns with domestic semiconductor manufacturing initiatives, though their preliminary $16 million CHIPS award is relatively modest compared to larger industry players. The $77 million in customer capital co-investment demonstrates strong customer commitment while reducing SkyWater's capital burden.
The company's transition of ATS development programs into production (including partnerships with Lumotive, NanoDX, and Quantum-Si) will be important for sustainable profitability. Meanwhile, the Florida facility expansion for advanced packaging represents a significant growth vector for 2025 and beyond, supported by a
SkyWater's 2024 results demonstrate the company's successful execution of its specialized technology foundry model, which differentiates it from traditional semiconductor manufacturers by emphasizing co-development partnerships over pure manufacturing. The 19% revenue growth to $342.3 million and transition to positive non-GAAP EPS validate this approach, though the Q1 2025 guidance signals near-term headwinds that warrant attention.
The company operates in a unique position within the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem. Unlike TSMC or GlobalFoundries pursuing leading-edge nodes, SkyWater targets specialized applications where process customization and co-development create more value than pure scaling. This strategy has resulted in strong customer commitment, evidenced by the $77 million in customer capital co-investment – representing nearly
The 56% decline in Wafer Services revenue highlights both the challenge and opportunity facing SkyWater. While traditional foundry services are shrinking, the company's 13% growth in ATS development demonstrates market validation of their co-development model. The key challenge now is efficiently converting these development programs into production revenue streams – the partnerships with Lumotive, NanoDX, and Quantum-Si represent critical test cases for this transition.
SkyWater's Florida expansion into advanced packaging addresses a critical gap in the U.S. semiconductor supply chain. With OSAT (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test) services predominantly located in Asia, establishing domestic advanced packaging capabilities positions SkyWater to capture value from the reshoring trend, potentially commanding premium pricing for security-sensitive applications.
The ThermaView platform demonstrates SkyWater's strategy of targeting specialized applications where they can establish technology leadership rather than competing on process node advancement. By focusing on the thermal imaging market's specific requirements, they can develop intellectual property and process expertise that larger foundries might overlook while pursuing bleeding-edge scaling.

“Our financial results for fiscal year 2024 demonstrate the strength of our highly differentiated, technology foundry business model, within a dynamic and growing domestic semiconductor ecosystem,” commented Thomas Sonderman, CEO. “In the nearly four years since our IPO, we have successfully transformed a mature fabrication facility into a monetized Advanced Technology Services (ATS) business, which has grown to a scale that supported record revenues and profitability for SkyWater in 2024. The past year has also brought a number of key milestones establishing SkyWater as ‘America’s Foundry,’ including the launch of our ThermaView℠ platform, initial terms of our CHIPS funding award, multiple ATS customers beginning initial phases of production at SkyWater Minnesota, and significant progress preparing our
Significant Highlights of the Past Year:
- Record financial results for fiscal 2024. SkyWater achieved record revenues and gross profit, strong adjusted EBITDA, and positive non-GAAP earnings per share for fiscal 2024, driven primarily by strong growth in ATS development revenues compared to fiscal 2023.
-
Launch of ThermaView℠ Solutions. SkyWater recently launched its first platform dedicated to read-out IC (ROIC) and microbolometer solutions for thermal imaging applications. With the increasing demand for advanced infrared sensing, ThermaView positions SkyWater as a key supplier in a rapidly-growing
market spanning defense, industrial, and medical applications.$9 billion -
Announced preliminary CHIPS funding award. SkyWater signed a preliminary memorandum of terms with the CHIPS for America program late in 2024. The proposed
CHIPS program award is expected to be combined with$16 million in incentives from the State of Minnesota’s Forward Fund in order to augment the substantial outside funding already awarded to SkyWater to date, accelerating our plans to enhance production capabilities at our$19 million Minnesota facility. -
Unprecedented level of customer CapEx co-investment. Nearly
in Tools revenue recognized in fiscal 2024 marks a strong start to an anticipated multi-year period of record levels of customer CapEx co-investment. Tool installations during 2024 were primarily focused on adding advanced capabilities and increased capacity within our$77 million Minnesota operations in support of future growth ahead for multiple strategic programs, including the installation of a first-of-its-kind Multibeam e-beam lithography system. - Strong progress transitioning multiple ATS development programs into production. SkyWater’s strategy to collaborate closely with multiple customers as they transition ATS development programs into production yielded positive progress over the year. We launched production with optical sensing pioneer Lumotive, executed a multi-year supply agreement with NanoDX, and advanced Quantum-Si’s state-of-the-art proteome sequencing technology into production during 2024.
-
Exciting progress in
Florida operations supported by transformational contract award. Initial tool deliveries in support of our fan-out wafer-level packaging platform in$120 million Florida commenced in 2024, marking an important milestone as we accelerate the tooling and facilitization of ourFlorida operations in preparation for an expected 2025 ramp in Advanced Packaging revenues. We were pleased to announce the appointment of GM Bassel Haddad during 2024 to lead our Advanced Packaging operations, which we expect will be a compelling new revenue growth vector for SkyWater, beginning in 2025.

ATS development revenue represents GAAP revenue primarily derived from process development services, tool installation and qualification services, facility and tool access, leases where SkyWater serves as lessor, and security services. |
(2) |
Tools revenue and cost of tools revenue represents GAAP revenue and cost primarily derived from the procurement and subsequent sale of equipment to our customers. While this equipment is owned by our customers, the equipment is retained in one of our fabs and is used to complete ATS customer programs. |

SkyWater accounts for the impacts of customer contract modifications in accordance with GAAP. Customer contract modifications that add or eliminate performance obligations and thereby change the scope of our customer programs often impact the revenue and/or cost of revenue associated with performance on customer programs. Significant impacts resulting from the effects of executed contract modifications include:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We provide non-GAAP financial information that our management regularly evaluates to provide additional insight to investors and to supplement our results reported using
We also provide earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental non-GAAP measures. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation expense and certain other items that we do not view as indicative of our ongoing performance, including net income attributable to noncontrolling interests; management transition expense; business transformation costs; CHIPS Act specialist fees; restructuring costs; and transaction costs. Our management uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin to make informed operating decisions, complete strategic planning, prepare annual budgets, and evaluate Company and management performance. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful performance measures to our investors because they allow for an effective evaluation of our operating performance when compared to other companies, including our peers, without regard to financing methods or capital structures. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin because the amounts of these items can vary substantially within our industry depending on the accounting methods and policies used, book values of assets, capital structures, and the methods by which assets were acquired. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, the reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic cost bases of depreciable assets, none of which are reflected in these non-GAAP financial measures. Our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an indication that our results will be unaffected by the items excluded from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. In future fiscal periods, we may exclude such items and may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items. Accordingly, the exclusion of these items, and other similar items, from these non-GAAP financial measures should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, unless otherwise expressly indicated.
The following tables present a reconciliation of the most directly comparable financial measures, calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to our non-GAAP financial measures.
