Sivers Semiconductors (OM:SIVE)

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Sivers Semiconductors AB (publ) operates through its subsidiaries to develop, manufacture, and sell chips, components, modules, and subsystems across North America, Europe, and Asia with a market cap of SEK528.38 million.

Operations: The company generates revenue from two primary segments: Wireless, contributing SEK158.18 million, and Photonics, accounting for SEK82.75 million.

Market Cap: SEK528.38M

Sivers Semiconductors recently reported a decrease in third-quarter sales to SEK 66 million from SEK 72 million the previous year, with an increased net loss of SEK 51.4 million. Despite this, the company is strategically positioned in the microelectronics sector, securing $6 million funding from the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act for its 5G/6G technology program. While Sivers' short-term assets cover both short- and long-term liabilities, its cash runway is limited to less than a year if current cash flow trends persist. The board's lack of experience and high share price volatility present additional challenges for investors.

Short-term assets sufficiently cover both short- and long-term liabilities. The management team is experienced but faces challenges such as low return on equity and limited interest coverage by EBIT.
