The single most material driver behind the turn to profitability was a sharp sequential improvement in operating leverage, as restructuring charges fell to $1.21 million from $6.63 million in Q1, helping narrow the GAAP operating loss to $17.24 million and push adjusted EBITDA into positive territory at $3.85 million. A $28 million design-win order from a customer serving mobile and automotive end-markets, combined with test cell utilization rising 3 percentage points sequentially to 75%, signaled broadening demand, a trend the company expects to accelerate as it guides Q3 revenue to $125 million, plus or minus $7 million, implying a meaningful sequential step-up from Q2 levels.

Key Takeaways

  • Test cell utilization increased 3 points quarter-over-quarter to 75%
  • Approximately 63% of Q2 revenue was recurring
  • Improvement in GAAP and non-GAAP profitability sequentially from Q1 2025
  • Lower restructuring charges compared to Q1 2025
