Teradyne reported strong third-quarter growth on October 27, with demand across the AI supply chain lifting semiconductor test, product test and robotics. The company's earnings release said revenue reached 1.306 billion US dollars, up 70 percent from the year-earlier quarter.
AI demand lifts all three businesses
Semiconductor Test generated 1.072 billion US dollars, Product Test contributed 138 million US dollars and Robotics added 96 million US dollars. Robotics delivered its highest third-quarter revenue to date and reached profitability, strengthening the diversification case beyond Teradyne's core semiconductor-testing franchise.
GAAP net income attributable to Teradyne was 342.4 million US dollars, or 2.17 US dollars per diluted share. The company also reported non-GAAP net income of 359.9 million US dollars, or 2.29 US dollars per diluted share; the adjusted figure excluded acquired intangible-asset amortization, restructuring and other charges, and related tax effects.
Fourth-quarter outlook stays broad
Management guided to fourth-quarter revenue of 1.250 billion to 1.350 billion US dollars. The range leaves room for continued AI-related demand while reflecting the visibility differences between the semiconductor-test and robotics businesses.
FormFactor expands test strategy
On October 12, Teradyne and FormFactor announced a collaboration covering next-generation semiconductor development, validation and high-volume production. The joint announcement said the companies will combine Teradyne's automated test platforms with FormFactor's probe, interface and characterization expertise. The focus includes high-performance computing, advanced packaging, high-bandwidth memory and silicon photonics. Teradyne agreed to make a 300 million US dollar strategic equity investment in FormFactor, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
