|% Change Since: -32.03%
|Next Earnings Date:Apr 23, 2025
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The earnings call reflected a strong performance in 2024 with significant revenue growth and improved operating efficiency driven by AI and advanced packaging demand. However, challenges in the China market and a decline in gross margin present near-term headwinds, leading to expectations of flat revenue in the first half of 2025.Company Guidance
In their earnings call, Ultra Clean Technology (UCT) provided guidance reflecting some challenges and areas of growth. For the first quarter of 2025, UCT projected total revenue between $505 million and $555 million and expected earnings per share (EPS) in the range of $0.22 to $0.42. Despite experiencing a 21% growth in 2024, the company anticipates some demand softness, especially from their China operations, due to extended qualification timelines and inventory digestion.

The company aims to maintain profitability by closely monitoring cost structures and expects its tax rate to be in the low to mid-20s for 2025.
