NXP Semiconductors Plunges 5.81% on Weak Revenue, Tariff Woes

On July 22, 2025, NXP Semiconductors experienced a significant drop of 5.81% in pre-market trading.

NXP Semiconductors reported a 6% decline in revenue for the second quarter, totaling $2.93 billion, which fell short of analysts' expectations of $2.9 billion. Despite this, the company's adjusted earnings of $2.72 per share exceeded estimates of $2.68 per share.

The company's third-quarter revenue guidance, ranging from $3.05 billion to $3.25 billion, failed to impress investors, leading to a decline in shares. The midpoint of this range was slightly above analysts' estimates of $3.07 billion, but the overall outlook did not meet investor expectations.

NXP Semiconductors expects revenue to continue declining in the third quarter, although at a slower pace. The company's profit also dropped in the latest period, contributing to the overall negative sentiment.

Additionally, the impact of tariffs on NXP Semiconductors' car chip sales has been significant, with weak performance in the second quarter and an expected decline in revenue for the third quarter. This further contributed to the drop in shares.
