Silicom Reports Q1 2025 Results

Published

on

KFAR SAVA, Israel, April 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SILC), a leading provider of high-performance networking and data infrastructure solutions, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. 

Financial Results

Silicom’s revenues for the first quarter of 2025 were $14.4 million, unchanged compared with the revenues for the first quarter of 2024.

On a GAAP basis, the company’s net loss for the quarter totalled $2.8 million, or $0.49 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with a net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.55 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the first quarter of 2024.

On a non-GAAP basis (as described and reconciled below), net loss for the quarter totalled $2.1 million, or $0.37 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with a net loss of $2.4 million, or $0.38 per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the first quarter of 2024.

Guidance

Management projects that revenues for the second quarter of 2026 will range from $14.5 million to $15.5 million. Growth for 2025 as a whole is expected to be in the low single digits, with a double digit annual growth rate materializing gradually from 2026.

Comments of Management  

Liron Eizenman, Silicom’s President and CEO, commented, “The first quarter was another period of strong execution in line with our strategic plan, with significant Design Win momentum and a growing pipeline that we expect to begin accelerating our revenue growth in 2026 and beyond.”   

Mr. Eizenman continued, “The most tangible indicator of our progress is the impressive number of Design Wins that we are closing and the breadth and depth of our Design Win opportunity funnel. Since the beginning of the year, we have been awarded three important new Wins – two from cyber security leaders and one from a global network test equipment company – which together encompassed our full product range, from Smart NICs and FPGA-based products all the way through to our advanced Edge systems. All three are repeat customers who already relied on our products to give their systems a performance edge, and who expanded their business with Silicom as they embarked on strategic new projects. This demonstrates the power of each Design Win not only to generate its own stream of recurring revenues, but also to open the door to multiple additional opportunities. This, combined with the growing number of potential new customers who are currently evaluating and testing our products, is the basis for our expectation to secure at least 4-6 additional Design Wins this year.”

Mr. Eizenman concluded, “Looking forward, we continue to project low single-digit growth for 2025 and double-digit growth beginning in 2026, leading to an EPS above $3 on revenues of $150$160 million. A faster-than-projected ramp up of deals currently in the pipeline could accelerate this timeline significantly, and we are fully focused on making this happen.”

Yearlong Celebration of the World Trade Bridge’s 25th Anniversary

Published

on

By

LAREDO, Texas, May 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The City of Laredo is launching a yearlong celebration marking 25 years of the World Trade Bridge, a vital commercial gateway that transformed Laredo into the top-ranked inland port in the United States. Inaugurated on April 15, 2000, the World Trade Bridge has evolved from a solution to downtown congestion into one of the busiest commercial border crossings in the Western Hemisphere. Today, it processes more than 6 million trucks annually and moves over $339 billion in goods, surpassing major sea and land ports such as Los Angeles, Houston, and Chicago. “This bridge, which is the anchor of our port, represents the shared vision of two nations and two sister cities that, through strategic planning and joint investment, has transformed a region into a global logistics powerhouse,” said Laredo Mayor Dr. Víctor D. Treviño.

Ongoing Expansion to Boost Trade Capacity

On May 31, 2024, the president of the United States approved the City of Laredo’s request to expand the World Trade Bridge. The expansion project includes the construction of a new eight-lane bridge dedicated to northbound commercial traffic, along with additional lanes on the existing bridge for southbound traffic. Once completed, the project will enhance traffic flow, reduce congestion, and strengthen the port’s capacity to support the growing demands of international trade.

From Bottleneck to Binational Beacon

The bridge was conceived in the 1990s in response to NAFTA-era congestion in downtown Laredo. With support from both sides of the border, construction was completed in under two years, opening with eight commercial lanes — now expanded to fourteen. Port Laredo currently handles over 40% of all U.S.–Mexico land trade, with daily traffic ranging from 15,000 to 18,000 trucks carrying everything from automobiles and medical devices to fresh produce and electronics.

A Strategic Hub for the Americas

The World Trade Bridge has become a critical node for hemispheric trade, connecting not only Mexico and the United States but also facilitating commerce from Central and South America. Products from Colombia, Brazil, Peru, and other countries enter the U.S. through Mexican ports like Manzanillo and Veracruz before continuing north through Laredo.

Laredo: The New Standard for Nearshoring

As companies reconfigure global supply chains, Port Laredo’s secure, technology-driven infrastructure has positioned the city as a premier gateway for nearshoring and regional manufacturing integration. The 25th anniversary campaign will feature binational events, industry panels, and a regional trade summit later this year to highlight Laredo’s evolving role in global commerce.

About Port Laredo

Located on the U.S.–Mexico border, the port serves as a critical logistics hub for North American and hemispheric commerce. With a strategic geographic position, advanced customs infrastructure, and multimodal connectivity, Port Laredo facilitates the movement of over $330 billion in goods annually and plays a vital role in strengthening regional economies and global supply chains.
