Insights

GSI shows impressive margin growth and progress with AI-ready chips while transitioning from memory-centric to edge AI applications.

GSI Technology's Q1 FY2026 results demonstrate a meaningful turnaround with revenue of $6.3 million, representing a 35% year-over-year increase in their core SRAM business. The 58.1% gross margin—their highest in over two years—reflects a substantial 11.8% improvement from the same period last year.

The company's strategic shift toward AI applications is evident in three key developments. First, the Gemini-II chip has reached production-ready status after successful debugging of the second silicon spin, a critical technical milestone. Second, they've optimized SAR and YOLO algorithms for their low-power Leda board, targeting edge AI applications for drones in GPS-denied environments and satellite systems. Third, they're developing a multi-modal large language model optimized for edge computing with benchmarks expected this fall.

Customer concentration is shifting notably. While traditional customers KYEC and Nokia represented smaller portions of revenue (4.3% and 8.5% respectively), Cadence Design Systems emerged as their largest customer at 23.9% of revenue—up from zero in the year-ago period. This suggests traction in semiconductor design tools, aligning with the industry's AI acceleration efforts.

The composition of product sales further validates their strategic direction, with SigmaQuad products (their higher-performance memory solution) jumping to 62.5% of shipments from 36.3% a year ago, while military/defense sales declined to 19.1% from 31.9%.

Their improved cash position of $22.7 million, up from $13.4 million at the end of Q4, provides runway for continued R&D investment. The modest operating loss of $2.2 million (improved from $4.7 million year-over-year excluding one-time gains) suggests they're making progress toward profitability while still investing in their AI capabilities.

Q2 guidance indicates continued confidence with projected revenue of $5.9-6.7 million and gross margins holding strong at 56-58%, suggesting the business model improvements are sustainable.

Gemini-II Second Silicon is Fully Functional and Production Ready

SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GSI Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: GSIT) today reported financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Summary Comments for First Quarter Fiscal Year 2026

  • SRAM revenue increased 7% sequentially and 35% year-over-year, fueled by strong market momentum for leading AI processors;
  • Gross margin lift of 200 basis points from prior quarter and over 1,100 basis points compared to the prior year for our largest gross margin in over two years;
  • Quarter-end cash balance of $22.7 million, up from $13.4 million at the end of Q4 FY2025, including proceeds from the “at the market” (ATM) program;
