Key Terms

gaap, regulation g, ebitda, net cash, +1 more
5 terms
gaap financial
"The Company presents its financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)."
GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.
regulation g regulatory
"non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Regulation G and related reporting requirements"
Regulation G is a U.S. securities rule that requires companies to show and explain how any highlighted financial numbers that differ from standard accounting figures were calculated, and to provide a clear bridge to the official results. For investors this acts like a recipe card: when a company presents a simplified or adjusted profit number, Regulation G forces them to show the original ingredients and steps so readers can judge whether the adjusted figure gives a clearer or misleading picture of financial health.
ebitda financial
"the term Earnings Before Interest Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization which we define as EBITDA consists of"
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
net cash financial
"The term Net Cash, as may be used and/or presented in this release"
Net cash is the amount of money a company has after subtracting any debts or obligations from its total cash holdings. It shows how much cash would remain if the company used its available funds to pay off its debts. For investors, positive net cash indicates financial health and flexibility, while negative net cash may suggest potential difficulties in meeting financial commitments.
free cash flow financial
"The term Free Cash Flow, as used and/or presented in this release"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.

Further Expanding SiPho Capacity and Capability with Additional $270 Million Cap-Ex Investments to Support Increasing Demand

MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel, Feb. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tower Semiconductor (NASDAQ/TASE: TSEM) reports today its results for the fourth quarter of 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Fourth Quarter of 2025 Results Overview
Record revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $440 million, representing revenue growth of 14% year-over-year and 11% quarter-over-quarter. The Company met its expressed revenue target of sequential quarter-over-quarter revenue growth within 2025 and an acceleration in the second half of the year, resulting in 23% growth fourth quarter over first quarter.

Gross profit and operating profit for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $118 million and $71 million, respectively, compared to $93 million and $51 million in the third quarter of 2025, respectively.

Net profit for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $80 million, reflecting $0.71 basic and $0.70 diluted earnings per share, $26 million higher as compared to $54 million in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting $0.48 basic and $0.47 diluted earnings per share.

Cash flow generated from operating activities in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $40 million considering the inclusion of the previously announced $105 million Fab3 Newport Beach, California lease extension prepayment. Investments in property and equipment, net, were $111 million. In the third quarter of 2025, cash flow generated from operating activities was $139 million and investments in property and equipment, net, were $103 million.

Full Year 2025 Results Overview
Revenue for the full year of 2025 was $1.57 billion, representing 9% growth as compared to $1.44 billion in 2024.

Gross profit and operating profit for 2025 were $364 million and $194 million, respectively, and net profit was $220 million, reflecting $1.97 basic and $1.94 diluted earnings per share. In 2024, gross profit and operating profit were $339 million and $191 million, respectively, and net profit was $208 million, reflecting $1.87 basic and $1.85 diluted earnings per share.

Cash flow generated from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $395 million considering the inclusion of the previously announced $105 million Fab 3 lease extension prepayment. Investments in property and equipment, net for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $437 million and debt payments, net totaled $33 million.

Business Outlook
The company guides revenue for the first quarter of 2026 to be $412 million, with an upward or downward range of 5%, reflecting revenue increase of 15% year-over-year.

Cap-Ex Investments for Growth
SiPho and SiGe demand continues to grow, and hence aligned with key customers, in addition to the previously announced and presently acting upon $650 million CapEx plans, the Company is further executing on an additional $270 million of equipment investment for SiPho capacity and next generation capabilities, resulting in a total of $920 million SiPho and SiGe investments. The Company targets installation and full qualification of the entirety of the CapEx to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026, enabling full starts commencing 2027. This total capacity is targeted to be greater than 5X of the fourth quarter 2025 annualized wafer shipment run-rate. Over 70% of the total SiPho capacity is either presently reserved or in the process of being reserved through 2028, firmly backed with customers’ prepayments.    

Russell Ellwanger, Chief Executive Officer of Tower Semiconductor, said: “We ended 2025 having achieved our highest-ever quarterly revenue with a substantial increase in profitability. This was driven by a strong base where each of our key technology platforms provided growth, combined with exceptional performance and strong incremental margins of our market-leading SiPho platforms. We previously announced a $650 million CapEx investment, targeted to be fully qualified in the second half of 2026. Considering our market position, and the extremely high adoption rate of SiPho for 1.6T transceivers, for which Tower is the primary provider, we announce today an additional $270 million investment for the expansion of SiPho capacity and capability. The resultant of the $920 million total investment targets December 2026 SiPho wafer starts capacity greater than five times the actual fourth quarter 2025 SiPho wafer monthly shipments, with customer committed consumption.”  

Ellwanger further added: “We remain focused on a value-driven growth strategy and are targeting sequential quarterly increases in revenue and profitability during 2026. Having moved strong customer partnerships into the next stage, namely deeply trust rooted technical alliances, we are redefining our business and financial landscape.”

Capacity Agreement
In September 2023, Intel signed a contract with Tower to manufacture 300mm wafers for Tower’s customers in Intel’s New Mexico facility. Recently, Intel has expressed its intention not to perform under the agreement. The parties are presently in a mediation process. The flows which have been transferred, or were in the process of being transferred, were originally qualified in Tower’s Fab7 in Japan. Customers are now being redirected to be supported by Fab7.
