The company's semiconductor products are well-suited to a range of end markets that rely heavily on power consumption and are in increasing demand, driven by the growing adoption of AI. The industrial, autonomous vehicles, cloud, 5G, and IoT markets are in an upcycle that may last for years, if not a decade or more, as technology advances, AI adoption increases, and societal penetration grows.
ON Semiconductor's Q3 results may reflect demand stabilization and Treo platform gains amid margin pressure.
ON's acquisitions, AI data center gains and key partnerships drive growth and expand its power solutions portfolio.
President Donald Trump said on Thursday his administration would impose tariffs on semiconductor imports from companies not shifting production to the U.S., speaking ahead of a dinner with major technology company CEOs.
ON Semiconductor is leveraging silicon carbide technology, strategic partnerships, US manufacturing strength, and favourable tariff policies to expand in EVs and AI data centres, with technical and financial indicators pointing to strong long-term growth potential.
Onsemi's NASDAQ: ON FQ2 results left something to be desired, but do not alter the long-term outlook. The results include sequential growth and a forecast for it to continue, a signal that the bottom of the business contraction has been seen and the recovery is underway.
ON Semiconductor (ON), or Onsemi, was the worst-performing stock in the S&P 500 Monday, sinking 13% as its chief executive warned customers are being "cautious" and sales slide.

The company reported adjusted earnings of 53 cents a share for the second quarter.
ON Semiconductor braces for Q2 results as EV softness, factory underuse, and pricing shifts shape segment performance.
My previous buy recommendations of ON Semiconductor have underperformed due to a cyclical downturn in auto and industrial markets. Management is expecting a rebound in the company's end markets in the near future, which should boost ON Semiconductor's fundamentals. ON's valuation remains reasonable compared to peers, with a forward P/S ratio of 3.87 and healthy margins.
The ongoing bottoming of automotive/ industrial end markets have been well supported by ON's sequentially flat FQ2'25 guidance and its analog peers' promising commentaries. This is significantly aided by the early monetization of its data center offerings, as the management announces new hyperscaler and supplier partnerships. On the other hand, it goes without saying that the ON stock is now rather expensive and seemingly overbought based on technical indicators.
