Infineon Technologies AG reported results for the first quarter of the 2025 fiscal year (period ended 31 December 2024).
“Infineon has held up well in a weak market environment, closing its first quarter slightly ahead of expectations,” says Jochen Hanebeck, CEO of Infineon. “Against a continued uncertain economic backdrop, our business trajectory in this fiscal year is following the pattern we expected: Following the expected inventory reduction, we continue to anticipate that the recovery in demand will be gradual for the current fiscal year. The positive stand-out is the move towards increased use of artificial intelligence, which is driving demand for our leading power supply solutions for AI data centers. This is a prime example of our long-term growth drivers, digitalization and decarbonization.”
