KFAR SAVA, Israel, April 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ:SILC), a leading provider of high-performance networking and data infrastructure solutions, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Financial Results

Silicom's revenues for the first quarter of 2025 were $14.4 million, unchanged compared with the revenues for the first quarter of 2024.

On a GAAP basis, the company's net loss for the quarter totalled $2.8 million, or $0.49 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with a net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.55 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the first quarter of 2024.

On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), net loss for the quarter totalled $2.1 million, or $0.37 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with a net loss of $2.4 million, or $0.38 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the first quarter of 2024.

Guidance

Management projects that revenues for the second quarter of 2026 will range from $14.5 million to $15.5 million. Growth for 2025 as a whole is expected to be in the low single digits, with a double digit annual growth rate materializing gradually from 2026.

Comments of Management

Liron Eizenman, Silicom's President and CEO, commented, "The first quarter was another period of strong execution in line with our strategic plan, with significant Design Win momentum and a growing pipeline that we expect to begin accelerating our revenue growth in 2026 and beyond."

Mr. Eizenman continued, "The most tangible indicator of our progress is the impressive number of Design Wins that we are closing and the breadth and depth of our Design Win opportunity funnel. Since the beginning of the year, we have been awarded three important new Wins - two from cyber security leaders and one from a global network test equipment company – which together encompassed our full product range, from Smart NICs and FPGA-based products all the way through to our advanced Edge systems. All three are repeat customers who already relied on our products to give their systems a performance edge, and who expanded their business with Silicom as they embarked on strategic new projects. This demonstrates the power of each Design Win not only to generate its own stream of recurring revenues, but also to open the door to multiple additional opportunities. This, combined with the growing number of potential new customers who are currently evaluating and testing our products, is the basis for our expectation to secure at least 4-6 additional Design Wins this year."

Mr. Eizenman concluded, "Looking forward, we continue to project low single-digit growth for 2025 and double-digit growth beginning in 2026, leading to an EPS above $3 on revenues of $150-$160 million. A faster-than-projected ramp up of deals currently in the pipeline could accelerate this timeline significantly, and we are fully focused on making this happen."
