Description: SKYT Skywater Technology December 28, 2025
SkyWater Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: SKYT) is a U.S.-based pure-play semiconductor foundry that provides end-to-end development, manufacturing, and packaging services for analog, mixed-signal, MEMS, and radiation-hard integrated circuits. The firm co-creates technology with customers across advanced computation, aerospace & defense, automotive, bio-health, and industrial markets, leveraging its 300 mm fab in Bloomington, Minnesota.
According to the company’s most recent Form 10-K (FY 2023), SkyWater generated $210 million in revenue, representing a 12 % year-over-year increase driven by higher demand for rad-hard parts in defense programs and growth in automotive ADAS sensors. The firm is benefiting from the U.S. CHIPS Act, which has funded a $50 million expansion of its wafer-processing capacity, and from a broader industry shift toward domestic semiconductor production to mitigate supply-chain risk.
