Cash flow from operations totaled $6.6 million for the third quarter, compared to cash flow from operations of $10.1 million for the corresponding period a year ago, and cash flow from operations of $10.8 million in the second quarter of 2022. Capital expenditures for the third quarter totaled $14.4 million, compared to $15.2 million for the corresponding period a year ago and $14.2 million for the second quarter of 2022.

Commenting on third quarter performance, Dr. Patrizio Vinciarelli, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “A deteriorating macroeconomic environment caused a shortfall in demand for electronic products. Q3 profitability was significantly impacted by legal expenses ahead of a recent intellectual property litigation trial.”

“Reflecting a reduction in demand caused by recent market conditions, the Q3 book-to-bill ratio came in below 1. We look forward to reducing production lead times and getting caught up with our backlog.”

“Capital investment in our first ChiP foundry continued in Q3 to enable our Andover fab to support Advanced Product revenues with up to approximately one billion dollars per year total capacity. Major advances in power density by our next generation ChiPs and recent design wins in our primary markets bode well for the future utilization of this capacity.”
