Hello, everyone, and thank you for joining us today on Magnachip's Q2 earnings call. We continued in Q2 to execute on our strategic pivot to become a pure-play power semiconductor company, and we delivered solid results despite ongoing macro challenges. For Q2 2025, consolidated revenue from continuing operations was $47.6 million, up 8.1% year-over-year and above the midpoint of our guidance range. This was our fifth consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth on an apple-to-apple basis. Gross profit margin from continuing operations was 20.4%, which was within our guidance range of 19.5% to 21.5%, though down 2.1 percentage points from a year ago and down slightly from Q1 due primarily to pricing pressure in China affecting older generation products. We expect our new generation power products will be more competitive and command better pricing as we roll out these offerings over the course of the next several quarters. As we said before, the catalyst for achieving our financial goals is the successful rollout of our new generation products, including Gen 6 Super Junction and IGBTs and Gen 8 medium and low-voltage MOSFETs, as well as a full array of follow-on power products. We remain committed to our 3-3-3 strategy of achieving $300 million in revenue and 30% gross margin in 3 years, although the exact timing will depend largely upon macro factors beyond our control. Shinyoung will provide more color in her section. We've already launched 28 new generation products in the first half of 2025 and are on track to meet our previously stated goal in 2025 for 40 new generation Power Analog Solutions products. We will start to see initial new generation product revenue by the end of 2025 and meaningful impact in the second half of 2026. We are exploring all options to accelerate our new generation product roadmap and now targeting more than 50 new generation products by the end of 2025. We expect these new generation power products to drive higher revenue and, given the smaller die sizes, yield 20% to 30% more die per wafer in our Gumi Fab. When new generations are fully ramped within a couple of years, these new products are expected to drive higher gross margins compared to the previous generations. Breaking down the business lines, Power Analog Solutions or PAS revenue was $42.3 million, up 7.7% year-over-year and 6% quarter-over-quarter. PAS represented nearly 90% of total revenue. Power IC revenue was $5.4 million, up 11.1% year-over-year and up 10.2% sequentially. We continue to see strong design win activity in Q2, reflecting customer acceptance of new power products. We achieved 71 total design wins in the quarter, up 61% from the 44 design wins in Q2 of last year. 23 of the design wins, representing 32% of all wins, were for new products. These new innovative product families opened up new high-value market opportunities for Magnachip in automotive, industrial, and AI applications. We currently expect these three market opportunities to represent more than 60% of Magnachip's future product mix in 2028, up from 51% in 2024. We already have ongoing engagement to penetrate the automotive market, which we expect to reach over 10% of revenue by 2028 from less than 5% in 2024. Some notable design win activity included, in the communications segment, we had 6 new design wins, up from 1 in Q2 a year ago. We continue to win power sockets for both major and flagship AI smartphone models, including multiple newly launched smartphones and also in upcoming foldable AI smartphones. We also had power design wins for tablet and smartwatch applications. In the computing segment, we achieved 10 new design wins in Q2 compared to 0 in the year-ago quarter. Most of these wins are related to PC power applications using our new Super Junction Gen 6 products. Super Junction Gen 6 products are also being adapted into new TV models for 2026 in the consumer segment, where we had 5 new design wins in Q2 '25, which was equal to the amount from the previous year-ago quarter. In industrial, we secured 47 additional design wins, up from 36 in Q2 '24. We saw particular strength in China for LED lighting, again, leveraging Super Junction Gen 6. We also expanded into 5G battery management systems with our new medium voltage Gen 8 products. Within automotive, we had 1 new design win in China for a PTC heater application and have now begun mass production for other key vehicle systems, such as Idle Stop Go, AC inverters, electric oil pumps, and car chargers destined for vehicles in Japan, the U.S., and Europe. In Power IC, we had 2 design wins, which is the same as the number of wins in the year-ago quarter. We are targeting additional design wins for LED drivers for 2026 TV models from multiple TV makers in Korea. Now I'll provide more details by business segment within Power Analog Solutions. Industrial accounted for approximately 35% of PAS revenue and declined 1.9% year-over-year, primarily due to continued weakness in e-bike and solar inverter sales driven by macroeconomic uncertainties and price competition in the e-mobility segment. However, we saw strong sequential and year-over-year growth in higher performance e-motor applications, LED lighting, and 5G battery management systems, supported by the adoption of our new Super Junction Gen 6 and MV Gen 8 products. Despite the solid growth in e-motors, it was not enough to fully offset the softness in e-bike demand. Consumer, which represented 34% of PAS revenue, declined 0.4% year-over-year due to continued weakness in home appliance, mostly offset by year-over-year growth in TV applications. As mentioned before, we are targeting our new generation Super Junction Gen 6 products being adopted for multiple 2026 TV models. Communications, which accounted for 20% of PAS revenue, grew nearly 47% year-over-year, reflecting increased share in both flagship and mass market smartphone models. In particular, our low-voltage MOSFET revenue for smartphone BatteryFETs increased 32% year-over-year, and we currently expect to hold the majority position with Korea's leading smartphone manufacturer in 2026, including in their flagship foldable models. Computing, which represents 8% of PAS revenue was up 45% year-over-year, driven primarily by higher PC power revenue in Taiwan and China. Automotive, which represented 2% of PAS revenue declined 25% year-over-year, mainly due to slower demand from Korea-based EV makers and some inventory controls from customers in China. On our Power IC business, which represented 11% of consolidated Q2 revenue from continuing operations, grew 11.1% year-over-year and 10.2% sequentially. The growth was driven by both TV-LED and OLED power ICs, supported by the introduction of 20 new mid- to low-end TV models by our customers for 2025. Finally, the shutdown of our Display business is now virtually complete. We are benefiting from end-of-life income streams and continue to explore monetization opportunities for the Display IP assets. China is a huge market, especially for power semiconductors. We started our 'China for China' strategy in early 2024 to address the local market opportunities. However, tariff uncertainty, along with competitive pricing pressure on our older generation products in China, combined to create a challenging environment that will impact our near-term outlook in the second half of this year. In view of this, we have been proactive and decisive by taking structural actions internally to reduce costs and optimize operational efficiency with a goal to get close to a quarterly adjusted EBITDA breakeven from continuing operations by the end of this year. We are also accelerating our R&D and product pipeline to differentiate our power product portfolio to be comparable to Tier 1 levels to command higher prices and margins. All of these efforts have to support our long-term financial goals to maximize shareholder value.

Thank you, YJ, and welcome, everyone, on the call. Let's start with key financial metrics for Q2. Total Q2 consolidated revenue from continuing operations, which includes Power Analog Solutions, PAS and Power IC, was $47.6 million, which is above the midpoint of our guidance range of $45 million to $49 million. This was up 8.1% year-over-year and up 6.5% sequentially on an apples-to-apples basis. This compared with equivalent revenue of $44.1 million in Q2 2024 and $44.7 million in Q1 2025. Revenue from Power Analog Solutions was $42.3 million. This was up 7.7% year-over-year and up 6% sequentially. Revenue from Power IC was $5.4 million. This was up 11.1% year-over-year and up 10.2% sequentially. In Q2, consolidated gross profit margin from continuing operations was 20.4%, within our guidance range of 19.5% to 21.5%, down from 22.5% year-over-year and down from 20.9% sequentially on an apples-to-apples basis. The year-over-year decline was primarily attributable to an unfavorable product mix, driven mainly by ASP erosion, particularly in China. The sequential decline was mainly due to the timing of certain inventory reserves associated with a Power IC product, coupled with higher-than-expected revenue in Q2 from pull-ins by a customer due to the uncertainty around tariffs. The company's Display business has been classified as discontinued operations from Q1 2025. So all of the following figures reflect reserves from continuing operations. Q2 SG&A was $9.3 million as compared to equivalent SG&A of $9.7 million in Q2 2024 and $9.7 million in Q1 2025. Q2 R&D was $7 million as compared to equivalent R&D of $5.8 million in Q2 2024 and $5.9 million in Q1 2025. R&D in Q2 increased due to the acceleration of R&D efforts while developing a family of new generation IGBT and Super Junction products to target more high-value opportunities. Stock compensation charges, including operating expenses from continuing operations, were $0.9 million in Q2 as compared to $1 million in Q1 2024 and $0.8 million in Q1 2025. These charges fluctuate every quarter depending on the timing and size of stock award grants. Q2 operating loss was $7.4 million. This compares to an equivalent operating loss of $5.7 million in Q2 2024 and an operating loss of $6.3 million in Q1 2025. On a non-GAAP basis, the Q2 adjusted operating loss was $5.6 million compared to an equivalent adjusted operating loss of $4.7 million in Q2 2024 and an adjusted operating loss of $5.4 million in Q1 2025. Income from continuing operations in Q2 was $8.5 million as compared with an equivalent loss of $2.2 million in Q2 2024 and a loss of $5.1 million in Q1 2025. In Q2, we recognized a net foreign currency gain of $10.8 million, which was primarily attributable to the non-cash translation gain on certain intercompany borrowings as a result of FX volatility during the quarter. We also booked in Q2 the income tax benefit of $4.1 million, which was primarily due to the tax loss recognized in Korea in connection with the shutdown of the Display business. Q2 adjusted EBITDA was negative $2.1 million. This compares to an equivalent adjusted EBITDA of negative $1 million in Q2 2024 and negative $2.1 million in Q1 2025. Q2 GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.23 as compared with equivalent diluted loss per share of $0.06 in Q2 2024 and diluted loss per share of $0.14 in Q1 2025. Q2 non-GAAP diluted loss per share was $0.08. This compares with equivalent non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.07 in Q2 2024 and non-GAAP diluted loss per share of $0.10 in Q1 2025. The difference between our GAAP and non-GAAP EPS in Q2 2025 was primarily due to the elimination of the non-cash foreign currency gain of $10.8 million that I explained earlier. Our weighted average non-GAAP diluted shares outstanding for the quarter were 36.1 million shares and 38.5 million shares in Q2 2024 and 36.9 million shares in Q1 2025. As part of our stock buyback program authorized in July 2023, we repurchased in Q2 2025 approximately 0.7 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $2.3 million, leaving about $21.2 million remaining authorization as of June 30, 2025. Moving to the balance sheet, we ended Q2 with cash of $113.3 million as compared to $132.7 million at the end of Q1 2025. The two main cash outflow items were $11.9 million of CapEx, which will be explained separately later, and $6.5 million of one-time liquidation costs related to the discontinued Display business. With respect to the discontinued Display business, we've previously estimated total one-time cash cost of approximately $12 million to $15 million. Of this estimated total cash cost in Q2, we actually paid statutory severance and other employee-related costs of $6.5 million. We originally expected to pay certain contract termination charges in full, along with the statutory severance and other employee-related costs. However, we negotiated with the respective vendors that the total of $6.5 million of contract termination charges would instead be paid over the remaining existing contract terms of 1.5 years from Q2 2025, and that amount was recognized as part of other charges in the discontinued operations financials in Q2 2025. The company has begun to provide limited support for remaining customer obligations, including the sale of end-of-life, EOL, Display products, which is being conducted by Magnachip Semiconductor Limited, the company’s wholly owned subsidiary that operates the power business. The sale of EOL Display products and the potential monetization of the intellectual property assets of the discontinued Display business is expected to generate cash inflow of approximately $20 million over a period of approximately 2 years from the second half of 2025. The total amount will depend upon the demand from customers and the outcome of the monetization efforts of the Display intellectual property assets. Any future revenue derived from the Display business will be accounted for separately as part of discontinued operations. Net accounts receivable at the end of the quarter totaled $28.8 million and $28.3 million at the end of Q1 2025. Our days sales outstanding for Q2 was 47 days and compares to 47 days in Q1 2025. Our average days in inventory for Q2 was 81 days and compares to 70 days in Q1 2025. Inventories net at the end of the quarter totaled $37.6 million and $32.6 million at the end of Q1 2025. Q2 CapEx, as noted earlier, was $11.9 million, of which $9.4 million was used to upgrade the Gumi Fab. For the full year 2025, we now expect our total CapEx to be in the range of $32 million to $34 million, which includes approximately $20 million to $22 million CapEx upgrade the Gumi Fab. The annual forecast for the upgrade CapEx in 2025 increased from the previously estimated range of $14 million to $15 million to $20 million to $22 million, primarily due to the timing shift of certain equipment purchases. In Q2, of the $9.4 million of upgrade CapEx, $7 million was funded by the previously announced $26.5 million equipment loan, resulting in our net cash impact from this upgrade CapEx in Q2 being $2.4 million. For the full year 2025, we expect approximately 80% to 85% of the $20 million to $22 million upgrade CapEx to be funded by the same $26.5 million equipment loan to which an interest rate of less than 3% per annum will apply, and the remainder will be funded by the company's cash. The loan was part of a previously disclosed strategy for Magnachip to make a $65 million to $70 million investment over 3 years to upgrade the Gumi Fab. The depreciation costs related to the Gumi Fab upgrade CapEx won't begin to be reflected in our financial statements until 2027. At that time, we anticipate that a more robust portfolio of new generation power products will at least partially offset the impact. This new investment in Gumi is expected to drive development of the new generation power product portfolio and upgrade new tools to optimize product mix and improve gross profit margins. Before we move to the guidance section, let me provide some comments regarding the actions that are being undertaken by the company post shutdown of the Display business. As we've disclosed previously, we are prepared to execute all available cost reduction initiatives to align our spending level with a strategy to become a pure-play power company and to achieve certain financial goals. We currently retain a cost structure, which includes some shared functions that historically have supported both Display and Power businesses. One of the initiatives being undertaken is headcount reduction, primarily through some shared functions made redundant through the closing of Display via a voluntary resignation program that we expect to commence and complete by the end of the third quarter. Due to the voluntary nature of the program, we are unable to provide an exact amount of the related financial impact at this time. However, with the execution of this headcount reduction, we target to achieve annual OpEx savings of $2 million to $3 million with a payback period of 1.5 years. Now moving to our third quarter and full year 2025 guidance. While actual results may vary, for Q3 2025, Magnachip currently expects consolidated revenue from continuing operations, which includes Power Analog Solutions and Power IC businesses, to be in the range of $44 million to $48 million, down 3.5% sequentially and down 13.2% year-over-year at midpoint on an equivalent basis due to pull-ins by customers in Q2 from the second half of the year as well as competitive pricing pressure on our older generation products. This compares with equivalent revenue of $47.6 million in Q2 2025 and $53 million in Q3 2024. Consolidated gross profit margin from continuing operations is expected to be in the range of 18.5% to 20.5%. This compares with equivalent gross profit margin of 20.4% in Q2 2025 and 22% in Q3 2024. For the full year 2025, consolidated revenue from continuing operations is now expected to be flattish as compared to our previous forecast of mid- to high-single-digit growth year-over-year due to a challenging environment related to tariff uncertainty and pricing pressure on older generation products in China. This compares with equivalent revenue of $185.8 million in 2024. Consolidated gross profit margin from continuing operations is expected to be between 19% to 20% as compared to our previous forecast of 19.5% to 21.5%. The equivalent gross profit margin was 21.5% in 2024.

In the first half of the year, we made good progress on our goal to become a pure-play power semiconductor company. We expanded our new generation power product pipeline and focused on increasing customer adoptions across key growth markets, including automotive, industrial, and communications. In Q2, in particular, our growth was driven primarily by strong performances in our communications and computing businesses, with each showing revenue growth of over 40% year-over-year. We also benefited modestly from some pull-ins by customers due to the uncertainty around tariffs. Looking to the back half of the year, we face an uncertain environment due to tariffs and pricing pressure in China. As a result, we currently anticipate a softer second half of the year relative to our prior expectations. While headwinds are impacting our near-term outlook, we are being proactive and decisive in taking structural actions to optimize operational efficiency while continuing to invest in R&D and CapEx to support our long-term 3-3-3 financial strategy. As we shared today, we are accelerating the development of a full array of new generation products to drive future growth, and we expect to see initial revenue contribution by year-end, gaining momentum and having a material impact in the second half of 2026. This acceleration will allow us to roll out more feature-rich, differentiated, and higher-margin products more quickly. We remain committed to maximizing shareholder value and prioritizing a return to profitability. Now I'll turn the call back to Steven for his final remarks.

Okay. That concludes our prepared remarks. Now let's open up the call for questions that you may have. Operator, please go ahead.

Our first question comes from Suji Desilva with ROTH Capital.

The pull-ins you saw in the first half, some customers had tariff impact, I'm wondering if that's flowing through in the second half all the way to the next few quarters and whether you've largely seen the impact of that near term, you talked about one large customer. So curious how much that effect is lingering versus pricing pressure and other elements of the revenue?

Yes. So I think we mentioned the magnitude of estimated pull-in in the prior time, we saw maybe about $2 million. And I think some of that came in the first half. And we saw some a little more in the later part of Q2, especially in the TV-related area. So we think that's already taken care of in terms of pull-in.

Great. And then on the gross margin, the ramp down that you're seeing in 1Q, 2Q, and 3Q, is that primarily pricing now? Or are you adjusting utilization for the current environment and trying to manage inventories here?

So the pricing pressure for sure, Suji, that's kind of revenue outlook revision from the mid- to high-single-digit to flattish. And also that's impacting our gross margin, obviously. So we baked in previously and the pricing competition and pressure became more severe. So that's kind of dragging down our gross margin. But at the same time, because the older generation product that we are kind of feeling the pressure there. So utilization rate is actually — I mean, that's definitely is getting impacted as compared to our previous forecast. So lower utilization than our previous expectation, along with this kind of pricing pressure, the ASP erosion is impacting our second half, and that's how you're kind of seeing our soft kind of outlook in the second half of 2025.

Our next question comes from the line of Nick Doyle with Needham & Company.

Just wondering if you can talk about where you're seeing strength in the communications, like which application is driving strength in the communications end market?

Yes, Nick. So if you look at our remarks today, we had more design wins in the communication. So from 1 to 5 models we had, and we are seeing the trends from the new models that launched in 2025. So that's from mid-range to flagship AI smartphones and then the new launched AI foldable phones, and that's where we saw growth. And also in the computing area, we had more design wins, and that also contributed to the more design win. And then we are also seeing a good pipeline for the AI server as well.

Okay. And then if I could just ask about the OpEx and the EBITDA breakeven. I mean, you're saying you're targeting hopeful breakeven by the end of the year. Does that mean you can really take down OpEx $1 million to $2 million by the end of the year, kind of to be determined based on the voluntary employee dynamic?

Thanks, Nick. So I mean that's why we still target to get close to adjusted EBITDA breakeven in Q4 2025. So we are executing this voluntary resignation program. We are going to do that launch and execute it by the end of Q3. So you're going to see the impact in Q4 for sure. But our currently estimated range is like $2 million to $3 million OpEx reduction, like that's on an annual basis. So if you kind of divide it by 4, just roughly that kind of $0.5 million to $0.75 million kind of the reduction in OpEx, and mainly should be coming from the SG&A.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm showing no further questions in the queue. I would now like to turn the call back over to Steven for closing remarks.

Okay. Thank you. Before we conclude, I just want to give everyone a quick reminder on our upcoming investor conference. On August 20, we will present at the 6th Annual Needham Virtual Semiconductor and SemiCap One-on-One Conference. Attendance at the conference is by invitation only. For interested institutional investors, please contact your respective sales representative to register and schedule one-on-one meetings with the management team. Please look for details of our future events on Magnachip's Investor Relations website. With that, this concludes our Q2 earnings conference call. Thank you, and take care.

Ladies and gentlemen, you may now disconnect. Thank you for your participation.
