No, Wolfspeed is not profitable. The company reported a significant net loss in its most recent fiscal quarter.
Wolfspeed's Recent Financial Performance
In its fiscal 2025 first quarter, which concluded on September 29, Wolfspeed experienced a substantial net loss, indicating it is currently not operating profitably. This can be understood by examining its revenue and costs:
- Revenue Generated: $194.7 million
- Net Cost to Produce Revenue: $230.9 million
- Operating Expenses: $230.1 million
- Total Net Loss for the Quarter: $282.2 million
These figures clearly show that the company's expenses far exceeded its income from operations.
Breakdown of Quarterly Financials
To further illustrate Wolfspeed's financial position during this period, here is a summary:
Financial Metric | Amount (Millions USD) | Description |
---|---|---|
Revenue | $194.7 | Money earned from sales of goods or services. |
Cost of Revenue | $230.9 | Direct costs attributable to the production of revenue. |
Gross Loss | -$36.2 | Revenue minus Cost of Revenue. |
Operating Expenses | $230.1 | Costs not directly tied to production, like R&D, sales, and administrative. |
Total Net Loss | -$282.2 | The overall loss after all expenses are deducted from revenue. |
As seen in the table, Wolfspeed incurred a gross loss of $36.2 million, meaning the direct costs of producing its products were more than the revenue those products generated. When combined with substantial operating expenses, this led to the reported net loss.
