Third Quarter and Recent 2023 Highlights

Q3 2023 revenue of $3.4 million compared to $5.4 million in Q3 2022, primarily due to lower customer purchasing for inventory of Spectrum Semiconductor products compared to an inventory buildup in the prior period.
Gross profit of $1.5 million compared to $2.7 million in Q3 2022, primarily due to lower international sales from the semiconductor materials division.
Gross profit margin was 43.8% compared to 48.95% in Q3 2022, primarily due to the lower sales volumes.
Loss from operations was $887,700, primarily due to the lower sales volume and the Company's continuing investments in new product development.
At September 30, 2023, cash, cash equivalents, and liquid marketable securities totaled $8.6 million, ample capital to execute the Company's strategic growth initiatives.
AmpliTech recently made several announcements of new advanced communication products, including new Low Noise Amplifiers, Coaxial In-Line LNAs and Coaxial In-Line Band Pass Filters tailored for broadcasting applications, and PHEMT MMIC Technology designed to enable wider spread of their industry-leading noise suppression technology into a broader array of communications systems.
AmpliTech expects continued growth in demand for its core LNA and semiconductor products as it works through its $80M CRM opportunity funnel.

Management Commentary

Fawad Maqbool, CEO of AmpliTech, commented, "This quarter, we observed a dip in sales volumes, which mirrors the trends in the larger semiconductor landscape. The decline is largely attributable to the prior period's over-purchasing by clients adjusting to global supply chain challenges. Despite the short-term contraction, industry analysts are projecting a resurgence in semiconductor demand starting in 2024. In anticipation of this upturn, we remain committed to our strategic investments aimed at driving future growth. We are particularly enthusiastic about the recent launch of our groundbreaking MMIC-based LNAs, which deliver unparalleled performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. These products are designed to cater to the commonly utilized frequency spectrums, such as the 2.0 - 4 GHz, 4.0 - 8.00 GHz, and 2-18 GHz bands."

"We are also poised to roll out our innovative LNA 5G MMIC chips, which are fundamental for communication systems to meet the demands of future technologies. Our plan is to integrate these advanced LNAs into our new 5G MIMO radio units. Further, the versatility offered by these MMIC chips will allow us to adopt a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) model, making them readily available for online purchase. This approach positions us well to serve a broader market segment than we have in the past."

"Despite the current economic uncertainties, we are forging ahead with our product development initiatives. Our aim is to empower our clients with the tools necessary for innovation, and ultimately contributing to the advancement of future technologies. We are moving forward with a balanced approach, tempered by a strategic vigilance in the face of macroeconomic challenges, and excited about the years ahead as we continue to roll out new products for the communications systems of tomorrow," concluded Mr. Maqbool.

For AmpliTech's complete financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023, see the Company's Quarterly Form 10-Q to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14 2023.
