GCT Semiconductor reported Q2 GAAP EPS of -$0.26 and revenue of $1.2M, missing the estimate by $1.06M. The company expects to start producing finalized 5G chipsets in Q3 2025, with volume shipments beginning in Q4 2025.

GCT Semiconductor reported its Q2 2025 financial results, which fell short of analyst expectations. The company reported a GAAP EPS of -$0.26, missing the estimate by $0.26, and revenue of $1.2 million, which was $1.06 million below the expected $2.26 million. Despite the missed targets, GCT Semiconductor remains optimistic about its future prospects, particularly with the upcoming production of 5G chipsets.

The company expects to commence production of its finalized inaugural 5G chipsets during the third quarter of 2025, with volume shipments beginning in the fourth quarter. This shift in revenue is a strategic move towards a more lucrative market segment. The production and sales of 5G chipsets are expected to drive significant growth in the coming quarters.

Looking ahead, investors should closely monitor the progress of the 5G chipset production and the company's ability to meet its revenue guidance. The company's financial flexibility and commitment to innovation are key factors that will influence its future performance.
