STMicroelectronics N.V. (“ST”) reported U.S. GAAP financial results for the second quarter ended June 27, 2026. This press release also contains non-U.S. GAAP measures (see Appendix for additional information).
ST reported second quarter net revenues of $3.49 billion, gross margin of 34.8%, operating income of $187 million, and net income of $222 million or $0.24 diluted earnings per share (non-U.S. GAAP1 gross margin of 35.2%, non-U.S. GAAP1 operating income of $269 million, and non-U.S. GAAP1 net income of $291 million or $0.31 diluted earnings per share).
Jean-Marc Chery, ST President & CEO, commented:
- “Q2 net revenues came above the mid-point of our business outlook range, driven by higher revenues in CECP and Automotive. Gross margin was in line with the mid-point of our business outlook range.”
- “On a year-over-year basis, Q2 net revenues increased 26.0%. Q2 gross margin was 34.8%, operating margin was 5.4% and net income was $222 million. On a non-U.S. GAAP1 basis gross margin was 35.2%, operating margin was 7.7% and net income was $291 million.”
- “During the quarter demand increased further, with strong bookings in all end markets. We saw improved visibility and signs of tight supply in several product categories. Inventory in distribution is now below our standard target.”
- “Our third quarter business outlook, at the mid-point, is for net revenues of $3.70 billion, increasing about 6.2% sequentially and about 16.2% year-over-year. Gross margin is expected to be about 37.0%, including about 70 basis points of unused capacity charges.”
- “We anticipate a revenue growth acceleration in Q4, mainly driven by our engaged customer programs in AI datacenters and LEO satellite communication. We expect Q4 revenues to be above $4 billion, this translates into a H2 vs H1 growth above our normal 15% seasonality.”
- “Driven by continued strong demand in AI datacenters, we are raising our revenue ambition for datacenters. Revenues are now expected above $1 billion in 2026 and, assuming the current dynamic continues and with the current engagements we have, well above $2 billion in 2027. This confirms ST’s strong position in the evolving AI datacenters.”
