AIXTRON Reports Robust FCF Amid Market Challenges in Q3/2025

AIXTRON SE published its Q3/2025 financial results, reporting revenues of EUR 119.6 million. This figure situates the company in the lower half of its guidance range, reflecting a continued soft market environment. Despite tough conditions, AIXTRON achieved strong free cash flow (FCF) and a shipment milestone with its 100th G10-SiC system.

The demand for AI-driven datacom lasers remains a key revenue driver. Despite challenges in the automotive sector for SiC power devices, the company's G10-AsP platform gained traction, substituting older systems at major customer sites.

Financially, the gross margin and EBIT margins were slightly trimmed due to negative operating leverage and exchange rate headwinds. AIXTRON adjusted its full-year guidance accordingly, yet it remains optimistic about future growth opportunities in diversified sectors like Solar and AR Micro LED applications.
