What are the gross and operating margins for the quarter and how do they compare to previous quarters?
Answer
The press release you quoted does not include the gross‑margin or operating‑margin figures for the quarter, nor does it give the comparable numbers for prior quarters. The only financial metrics disclosed are:
| Metric (Q3 FY 2025) | Amount |
|---|---|
| Net revenue | $19.6 million |
| Cash (ending balance) | $15.6 million |
| Cash provided by operations | $2.5 million |
| GAAP net income | $0.1 million |
| Non‑GAAP net income | $0.9 million |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $2.2 million |
Because gross margin (gross profit ÷ net revenue) and operating margin (operating income ÷ net revenue) require gross profit and operating income—numbers that are not provided in the summary—we cannot calculate the margins for this quarter from the information given.
How to determine the margins (if the data were available)
Gross margin
[
\text{Gross margin} = \frac{\text{Net revenue} - \text{Cost of goods sold (COGS)}}{\text{Net revenue}} \times 100\%
]Operating margin
[
\text{Operating margin} = \frac{\text{Operating income (EBIT)}}{\text{Net revenue}} \times 100\%
]
Operating income is typically derived from GAAP net income after adding back interest, taxes, depreciation & amortization, and any other non‑operating items. The press release does give an Adjusted EBITDA of $2.2 million, but EBITDA is not the same as operating income (EBIT) because it still excludes depreciation & amortization and sometimes other operating expenses.
- Historical comparison
To compare to prior quarters, you would need the same gross‑profit and operating‑income figures for those periods (e.g., Q2 FY 2025, Q1 FY 2025, etc.). The company’s full earnings release or Form 10‑Q/10‑K filings normally contain a “Consolidated Statements of Operations” table that lists:
- Net revenue (or net sales)
- Cost of goods sold (or cost of sales)
- Gross profit
- Operating expenses (R&D, SG&A, etc.)
- Operating income (or loss)
Those line items enable the calculation of the margins and a quarter‑to‑quarter trend analysis.
What to do next
- Locate the complete earnings release: Amtech Systems typically posts a full “Results Release” PDF on its investor‑relations website. That document will contain the income statement with COGS and operating‑expense breakdowns needed for margin calculations.
- Check SEC filings: The Form 10‑Q for the quarter ending June 30 2025 (or the Form 8‑K if the company uses that for earnings) will have the detailed financial statements.
- Contact Investor Relations: If the margins are not disclosed publicly, you can request them directly from Amtech’s IR team (email/phone listed on the company’s website).
Bottom line
Based solely on the excerpt you provided, gross and operating margins for Q3 FY 2025 cannot be determined, and therefore a comparison to previous quarters is not possible without additional data. To obtain those figures, you’ll need to review Amtech’s full earnings release or its SEC filings for the quarter.
