Odyssey Semiconductor Technologies Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

ITHACA, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 7, 2023 / Odyssey Semiconductor Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB:ODII), a semiconductor device company developing innovative high-voltage power switching components based on proprietary Gallium Nitride ("GaN") processing technology, today reported its second quarter 2023 results.

CEO Commentary

"Two letters of intent with customers were signed this quarter for the early access sampling program with at least one additional signed letter of intent expected by September due to summer holidays in Europe," said Mark Davidson, Odyssey's Chief Executive Officer. "Lead customers have collaborated along the way and have remained committed to product evaluations. Feedback on products delivered in Q1 2023 validated the performance metrics expected from vertical GaN for power applications. While we develop improvements to the products, we are actively engaged in multiple product definition conversations with leading EV automotive customers, as well as industrial motor and renewable energy customers. There is no doubt that these products will be successful in the market."

Davidson continued, "We must show additional customer traction in Q3 as we need to raise money by the end of the quarter. We remain confident in the product development problems getting solved, the quantity and quality of intellectual property being created and the patience and interest that remains from customers."

We are continuing to take product sample requests. Customers can request information and samples of the 650 and 1200 volt vertical GaN power devices at info@odysseysemi.com.

Significant Recent Advancements and Milestones

  • Vertical GaN product samples were delivered to customers in Q1 2023 as planned; results validated the leadership performance expected from vertical GaN power devices vs. competing technologies. Additional product samples will be delivered no later than Q4 2023.
  • Two letters of intent were signed this quarter for the early access sampling program. A third letter of intent is in process and is expected to be signed by September.
  • Foundry on-boarded two new customers in Q2. While only $8k has been invoiced, these initial product runs will be completed in Q3 with invoicing of approximately +$100k. More importantly, each customer represents large opportunities with recurring revenue from multiple fabrication runs. Converting $2 million pipeline for foundry services to new business as the Company continues to pursue new opportunities.

Odyssey Uniquely Positioned in High Growth Megatrend Movement to High Voltage.

40% CAGR to 2027 in Odyssey's Addressable Market

With industry-leading innovation, Odyssey's approach to vertical GaN will offer even greater commercial advantages over silicon than silicon carbide or lateral GaN. Vertical GaN offers a 10x advantage over silicon carbide (SiC) at performance enabling smaller and lighter power systems and cost levels unattainable by the competing technologies. The market the Company is pursuing is large and fast growing. The 650 volt segment is the larger market today, expected to grow at a 20% compound annual growth rate. The 1200 volt product market segment is expected to grow faster at 63% CAGR and will become the larger market in the second half of this decade. Together, the 650 and 1200 volt power device market is expected to exceed $5 billion in 2027, a 40% combined CAGR according to Yole Group, a French market research firm.
