Stm, net loss of $30 million in Q4: worse than estimated
Revenues were down, but in line with analysts' expectations. For the whole of 2025, profit fell by 88.5% to 180 million
StMicroelectronics ended the fourth quarter with a net loss of $30 million compared to the same period last year, disappointing analysts' expectations due to one-time non-cash tax charges of $163 million.

However, the latter exceeded the company's guidance 'driven by higher revenues in Personal Electronics and, to a lesser extent, in Cepc (Communication Equipment and Computer Peripherals) and Industrial, while Automotive was below expectations,' said CEO Jean-Marc Chery.
In the fourth quarter, the semiconductor group reported a net loss of $30 million, $0.03 per share, compared to a profit of $342 million, $0.37 per share, in the same period of 2024 (net profit of $237 million in the previous three months).
Adjusted profit ('non-gaap') for the quarter was EUR 100m, down 70.8% year-on-year and 62.7% over the previous three months.
