Shares of Silvaco Group soared after the company logged fourth-quarter adjusted earnings and revenue that beat analyst expectations.
The stock jumped 30% to $4.31 in Friday morning trading. The shares have retreated 10% in the past year.
The software company recorded a fourth-quarter net loss of $7.2 million, or 24 cents a share, compared with a net income of $4.2 million, or 14 cents a share, a year earlier.
Adjusted loss came in at 3 cents a share, ahead of the 12-cent-a-share loss that Wall Street had forecast, according to FactSet.
Revenue rose 2% to $18.3 million, beating the $16.4 million that analysts polled by FactSet had expected.
Chief Financial Officer Chris Zegarelli said Silvaco's cost-reduction strategies are progressing faster than expected, and resulted in stronger gross margins and healthier operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2025.
For the current first quarter, Silvaco Group expects to log revenue in the range of $15 million to $19 million. Analysts polled by FactSet are modeling for first-quarter revenue of $16.4 million.
