ASMPT Limited (ASMVF), a provider of hardware and software solutions for the manufacture of semiconductors and electronics, on Wednesday reported a net loss for the third quarter. However, the company recorded a rise in revenue.
For the three-month period, the Group posted a net loss of HK$268.6 million, or HK$0.65 per basic share, compared with a profit of HK$23.8 million, or HK$0.06 per basic share, in the same period last year. This net loss reflects restructuring costs and inventory write-off amounting to HK$370.5 million, primarily from the voluntary liquidation of a subsidiary, ASMPT Equipment (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. (AEC).
Excluding items, earnings stood at HK$101.9 million, or HK$0.24 per basic share, higher than HK$29.5 million, or HK$0.08 per basic share, in the same period last year.
Operating profit was HK$50.5 million, down 71.7% from last year. Excluding items, operating profit declined by 30.3% to HK$124.4 million from the prior year.
Revenue was HK$3.661 billion, up from the previous year's HK$3.34 billion.
Looking ahead, the company said: "The Group expects Q4 2025 revenue to be between US$470 million and US$530 million, up by 6.8% QoQ and 14.3% YoY at the mid-point, which is above market consensus. This growth will be supported by momentum in both SEMI and SMT."
