2021 Record Revenue of $162.8 Million

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — February 22, 2022 — SkyWater Technology (NASDAQ: SKYT), the trusted technology realization partner, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2021, ended January 2, 2022.

  • Record annual revenue increased 16% year-over-year to $162.8 million. Quarterly revenue decreased 3% year-over-year to $38.5 million.
  • Annual net loss to shareholders of $50.7 million, or (31)% of revenue. Quarterly net loss to shareholders of $27.0 million, or (70)% of revenue, includes a $13.4 million one-time inventory write-down.
  • Annual adjusted EBITDA of $(2.6) million, or (1.6)% of revenue. Quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $(4.9) million, or (12.6)% of revenue.

“SkyWater made great progress this year toward our vision of accelerating the path from ideation to commercialization in the semiconductor industry,” said SkyWater President and CEO Thomas Sonderman. “SkyWater continued to make important advancements on our long-term strategic platforms. Our radiation hardened technology recently achieved a critical qualification milestone and we made significant progress in power management with the introduction of our highly differentiated high-speed switching power MOSFET technology. We remain convinced that SkyWater’s unique model for timely and efficient technology realization is ideally positioned to drive increased shareholder value as our nation commits to enhancing domestic semiconductor manufacturing.”

Sonderman concluded, “Fourth quarter revenue grew 15% year-over-year, excluding the extra operating week in Q4 2020 and tool revenue. Labor market inflation and supply chain challenges persisted throughout the quarter, and we expect to continue to navigate these constraints, while investing strategically for growth. In 2022, we expect revenue growth near our long-term growth target of 25% and gross margin expansion. This is supported by our 2021 pipeline growth, new and expected program wins, and the expected movement of our radiation hardened technology to the productization phase.”
