Insights

Financial Analyst

GlobalFoundries posted modest growth with mixed signals: revenue up 2% YoY but margins compressed and cash flow declined 32%.

GlobalFoundries' Q1 2025 results present a mixed financial picture. Revenue reached $1.585 billion, up 2% year-over-year but down 13% sequentially from Q4. While the company achieved the high end of their guidance ranges, several concerning trends emerged beneath the headline numbers.

The most notable concern is gross margin compression. IFRS gross margin fell to 22.4%, down 300 basis points year-over-year and 210 basis points sequentially. This margin erosion occurred despite increased wafer shipments, which grew 17% year-over-year to 543,000 (300mm equivalent). The disconnect between volume growth and revenue suggests significant average selling price pressure.

On the positive side, net income increased 57% year-over-year to $211 million, with diluted EPS rising to $0.38 from $0.24. The dramatic improvement from Q4's $729 million loss primarily reflects the absence of the $935 million impairment charge taken last quarter.

Cash flow metrics show concerning momentum. Operating cash flow declined 32% year-over-year to $331 million. Capital expenditures fell to $166 million from $227 million a year ago, potentially signaling reduced investment in future capacity. The $3.7 billion cash position remains strong, though down from previous quarters.

The company's Q2 guidance projects sequential revenue growth of approximately 5.7% to $1.675 billion with gross margin improvement to 24.1%. However, projected IFRS EPS of $0.27 represents a significant sequential decline from Q1's $0.38.

Strategically, GlobalFoundries continues leveraging its specialized manufacturing technologies, particularly its 22FDX platform, securing partnerships with indie Semiconductor, Ayar Labs, and Bosch. These relationships target high-growth segments including automotive radar systems, optical interconnects for AI, and industrial IoT applications.

The company's stated growth in Automotive, Communications Infrastructure, Datacenter, and IoT end markets demonstrates resilience in key segments despite the challenging margin environment. However, investors should monitor whether future quarters reverse the concerning margin and cash flow trends.

MALTA, N.Y., May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. (GF) (Nasdaq: GFS) today announced preliminary financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Diluted EPS(2)(4)	$0.27 ± $0.06		~$0.09		$0.36 ± $0.05
Fully Diluted Share Count	~560

_{⁽¹⁾ The Guidance provided contains forward-looking statements as defined in the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995, and is subject to the safe harbors created therein. The Guidance includes management's beliefs and assumptions and is based on information that is available as of the date of this release.}

_{⁽²⁾ Non-IFRS gross margin, Non-IFRS operating margin, Non-IFRS operating expenses and Non-IFRS diluted EPS are Non-IFRS measures and, for purposes of the Guidance only, are defined as gross profit as a percent of revenue, operating profit as a percent of revenue, operating expenses and diluted EPS, all before share-based compensation, respectively. See "Financial Measures (Non-IFRS)" for further discussion on these Non-IFRS measures and why we believe they are useful.}

_{⁽³⁾ We expect share-based compensation of $15 million and $37 million in cost of revenue and operating expenses, respectively. The Non-IFRS margin impacts are calculated by dividing share-based compensation by net revenue, and the Non-IFRS diluted EPS impact is calculated by dividing share-based compensation by the fully diluted share count.}

_{⁽⁴⁾ Included in diluted EPS is net interest income (expense) and other income (expense) which we estimate will be between $3 million and $11 million for the second quarter 2025. Also included in diluted EPS is income tax expense which we estimate will be between $33 million and $47 million for the second quarter 2025.}

Financial Measures (Non-IFRS)

In addition to the financial information presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), this press release includes the following Non-IFRS financial measures: Non-IFRS gross profit, Non-IFRS operating profit, Non-IFRS operating expense, Non-IFRS net income, Non-IFRS selling, general and administrative, Non-IFRS research and development, Non-IFRS other income (expense), Non-IFRS income tax benefit (expense), Non-IFRS diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), Non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA, Non-IFRS adjusted free cash flow and any related margins. We define each of Non-IFRS gross profit, Non-IFRS selling, general and administrative, Non-IFRS research and development, Non-IFRS operating profit, Non-IFRS other income (expense), Non-IFRS income tax benefit (expense) and Non-IFRS net income as gross profit, selling, general and administrative, research and development, operating profit, other income (expense), income tax benefit (expense), and net income, respectively, adjusted for share-based compensation, structural optimization, amortization of acquired intangibles and other acquisition related charges, impairment of long-lived assets, revaluation of equity investments, restructuring charges, tax matters, and any associated income tax effects. We define Non-IFRS operating expense as Non-IFRS gross profit minus Non-IFRS operating profit. We define Non-IFRS diluted EPS as Non-IFRS net income divided by the diluted shares outstanding. We define Non-IFRS adjusted free cash flow as cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets plus proceeds from government grants related to capital expenditures. We define Non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for the impact of finance expense, finance income, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, restructuring charges, impairment of long-lived assets; revaluation of equity investments, structural optimization and acquisition related charges. We define each of Non-IFRS gross margin, Non-IFRS operating margin, Non-IFRS net income margin and Non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA margin as Non-IFRS gross profit, Non-IFRS operating profit, Non-IFRS net income and Non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA, respectively, divided by net revenue. Any adjustments described above that are zero for a given period are excluded from the “Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS” table. See "Reconciliation of IFRS to Non-IFRS" section for a detailed reconciliation of Non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

We believe that in addition to our results determined in accordance with IFRS, these Non-IFRS financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors in measuring our financial performance and highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. These Non-IFRS financial measures provide supplemental information regarding our operating performance that excludes certain gains, losses and non-cash charges that occur relatively infrequently and/or that we consider to be unrelated to our core operations. Management believes that Non-IFRS adjusted free cash flow as a Non-IFRS measure is helpful to investors as it provides insights into the nature and amount of cash the Company generates in the period.

Non-IFRS financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. Our presentation of Non-IFRS measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently, which may limit their usefulness as comparative measures.

For example, our business could be impacted by geopolitical conditions such as the ongoing political and trade tensions with China and the continuation of conflicts in Ukraine and Israel; political developments following the change in the U.S. administration; the imposition of trade controls, tariffs and counter-tariffs between the United States and its trade partners; the market for our products may develop or recover more slowly than expected or than it has in the past; we may fail to achieve the full benefits of our restructuring plan; our operating results may fluctuate more than expected; there may be significant fluctuations in our results of operations and cash flows related to our revenue recognition or otherwise; a network or data security incident that allows unauthorized access to our network or data or our customers’ data could result in a system disruption, loss of data or damage our reputation; we could experience interruptions or performance problems associated with our technology, including a service outage; global economic conditions could deteriorate, including due to rising inflation and any potential recession; the expected benefits of our announced partnerships may fail to materialize; and our expected results and planned expansions and operations may not proceed as planned if funding we expect to receive (including the planned awards under the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act and New York State Green CHIPS) is delayed or withheld for any reason. It is not possible for us to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Moreover, we operate in a competitive and rapidly changing market, and new risks may emerge from time to time. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. These statements are based on our historical performance and on our current plans, estimates and projections in light of information currently available to us, and therefore you should not place undue reliance on them.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances described in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Moreover, neither we, nor any other person, assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of these statements. Recipients are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date such statements are made and should not be construed as statements of fact. Except to the extent required by federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update any information or any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, subsequent events or any other circumstances after the date hereof, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
