- **Revenue Beat & Growth Drivers**: Q3 revenue $1.55B (+6% QoQ), driven by 7% Automotive and 5% Industrial growth. AI revenue doubles YoY to $250M.
- **Strategic Tech Wins**: vGaN platform samples with lead customers; SiC JFET adoption accelerates in EVs and AI. Vcore acquisition bolsters AI power delivery solutions.
- **Financial Strength**: Non-GAAP EPS $0.63, free cash flow $372M. Q4 guidance reflects stable utilization (74%) and 37-39% gross margin.
- **Market Trends**: Automotive stabilization in Americas and Japan, China down 7% Q. AI data center power demand reshaping ON's Industrial segment.
- **Key Risks**: No restocking yet; geopolitical risks may delay inventory rebuilds. vGaN commercialization expected in 2027.

**【CEO Summary Section】**
- Q3 revenue of $1.55 billion exceeded midpoint of guidance, with 7% sequential growth in Automotive and 5% in Industrial. AI revenue reached $250 million for 2025, doubling year-over-year.
- Gross margin of 38% (non-GAAP) reflects strategic investments in Treo platform, vGaN, SiC JFET, and Vcore acquisition. Design wins in Automotive, Industrial, and AI are driving long-term growth.
- vGaN platform, developed on proprietary GaN-on-GaN architecture, samples with lead customers in Automotive and AI, targeting 2027 revenue. SiC JFET adoption in EVs and AI data centers is accelerating.
- Regional growth: Americas up 22%, Japan up 38%, Europe down 4%, China down 7% sequentially. Strategic wins in China include high-voltage traction inverters and ADAS image sensors.

**【CFO Financial Commentary】**
- Q3 GAAP net income: $420 million; non-GAAP EPS: $0.63 (vs. $0.63 guidance). Free cash flow: $372 million, with $2.1 billion in share repurchases year-to-date.
- Q4 guidance: Revenue $1.48-1.58 billion, non-GAAP gross margin 37-39%, EPS $0.57-0.67. Utilization rate expected to stabilize at 74% after die bank inventory builds.

**【Q&A Highlights】**
- **Automotive Growth**: Sequential growth driven by Americas, China, and Japan. CEO expects stabilization but no restocking yet; lumpiness due to project ramps.
- **AI Differentiation**: ON is one of two companies offering end-to-end power delivery solutions (grid to core). Vcore acquisition accelerates SPS and controller roadmap for AI data centers.
- **Utilization & Margins**: Q3 utilization 74% (up from Q2), expected to stabilize in Q4. Gross margin improvement tied to utilization rate (1% utilization = 25-30 bps margin gain).
- **Nexperia Impact**: No direct impact on ON, but supporting customers with alternative supply. Auto Tier 1s remain cautious on restocking due to geopolitical risks.
- **vGaN Commercialization**: Sampling with lead customers, targeting 2027 revenue. Syracuse fab capabilities enable rapid scaling of wide-bandgap technologies.
