AXT makes specialized semiconductor substrates, like the silicon wafers for computer chips, but for advanced uses like 5G and lasers.
The company's revenue comes from selling these semiconductor substrates. Its gross margin was 21.34% TTM, but it has been unprofitable with a net margin of -14.68% TTM.
AXT's proprietary vertical gradient freeze technology for substrate manufacturing is a key differentiator. However, the semiconductor industry is highly competitive, with major players like Sumco and Shin-Etsu Chemical.
