Teradyne, Inc. (NASDAQ: TER) reported revenue of $686 million for the first quarter of 2025 of which $543 million was in Semiconductor Test, $69 million in Robotics, and $74 million in Product Test. GAAP net income for the first quarter was $98.9 million or $0.61 per diluted share. On a non-GAAP basis, Teradyne’s net income in the first quarter was $121.5 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, which excluded acquired intangible asset amortization, restructuring and other charges, and included the related tax impact on non-GAAP adjustments.

"Teradyne delivered 14% year-over-year growth in the first quarter driven by strong results in Semiconductor Test. System-on-a-Chip (SOC), primarily for Mobile, was the strongest growth driver," said Teradyne CEO, Greg Smith. "Visibility in the second half is limited and the impact of trade policy on end market demand is still in flux. Despite the current market uncertainty, Teradyne is well positioned for the long-term demand drivers of AI, electrification, and verticalization."

Guidance for the second quarter of 2025 is revenue of $610 million to $680 million, with GAAP net income of $0.35 to $0.58 per diluted share and non-GAAP net income of $0.41 to $0.64 per diluted share. Non-GAAP guidance excludes acquired intangible asset amortization, as well as the related tax impact on non-GAAP adjustments.

Teradyne announced that it is increasing the magnitude of the share repurchase program from a target of $400M in 2025 to up to $1B, to be completed by the end of 2026.

Interested investors should access the webcast at www.teradyne.com and click on "Investors" at least five minutes before the call begins.

Non-GAAP Results

In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, Teradyne also discloses non-GAAP results of operations that exclude certain income items and charges. These results are provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income exclude restructuring and other, acquired intangible assets amortization, ERP related expenses, inventory step-up, discrete income tax adjustments, and includes the related tax impact on non-GAAP adjustments. GAAP requires that these items be included in determining income from operations and net income. Non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP income from operations as a percentage of revenue, non-GAAP net income as a percentage of revenue, and non-GAAP net income per share are non-GAAP performance measures presented to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Teradyne’s baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that may not be indicative of Teradyne’s current core business or future outlook. These non-GAAP performance measures are used to make operational decisions, to determine employee compensation, to forecast future operational results, and for comparison with Teradyne’s business plan, historical operating results and the operating results of Teradyne’s competitors. Non-GAAP diluted shares include the impact of Teradyne’s call option on its shares. Management believes each of these non-GAAP performance measures provides useful supplemental information for investors, allowing greater transparency to the information used by management in its operational decision making and in the review of Teradyne’s financial and operational performance, as well as facilitating meaningful comparisons of Teradyne’s results in the current period compared with those in prior and future periods. A reconciliation of each available GAAP to non-GAAP financial measure discussed in this press release is contained in the attached exhibits and on the Teradyne website at www.teradyne.com by clicking on "Investor Relations" and then selecting "Financials" and the "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation" link.

The presentation of non-GAAP measures is not meant to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures or information provided in accordance with GAAP.
