Infineon sees 8% CAGR long-term growth

Infineon had calendar Q2 revenue of €1,632 million for a profit of €254 million.

For calendar Q3 it expects q-o-q revenue increase of 3% (+/ – 2%).
“Revenue, earnings and margin all increased in line with expectations in the third quarter,” says CEO Reinhard Ploss, “demand and was particularly strong for our automotive electronics, renewables and power supply solutions. Despite the current contraction of the semiconductor market and contrary to many of our competitors, Infineon has grown once again compared to the prior year’s corresponding quarter, reflecting its focus on sub-markets with structural growth. We therefore continue to forecast a long-term compound annual growth rate of 8 percent. We are enabling cleaner and safer cars, greener energy and even faster mobile communication.”
“The planned acquisition of Wolfspeed will secure us a decisive technological advantage in the long term and help us grow our system understanding. We are thereby focusing on promising growth areas such as electromobility and the Internet of Things.”
The gross cash position increased to €2,083 million at the end of calendar Q2, compared to €1,803 million at March 31, 2016. The net cash position rose from €27 million to €299 million.
