On August 10, AXT Inc rose 5.68% overnight, trading at $93.61 per share, with turnover of $1.3904 million. The stock continues its rebound trajectory after consecutive sessions of sharp profit-taking declines.
The rally is underpinned by the company's Q2 earnings report, which massively exceeded expectations. Revenue came in at $47.6 million versus the consensus estimate of $34.1 million, representing a 165% year-over-year increase. Adjusted EPS of $0.19 beat the $0.07 estimate by 171%. Indium phosphide substrate revenue reached a record $30.7 million in the quarter, with management characterizing Q2 as a business inflection point rather than a one-quarter step-up. Adjusted gross margin expanded to 45.0% from 8.2% a year earlier.
Additionally, the company secured long-term supply agreements with Coherent and Lumentum, pushing InP backlog orders above $100 million. Wedbush maintained its outperform rating, noting AI-driven data center demand remains in the early innings. These structural catalysts continue to support the ongoing oversold recovery.
