Investing.com -- Amkor Technology , Inc. (NASDAQ:AMKR) reported second quarter earnings that exceeded analyst expectations, with the semiconductor packaging provider delivering stronger-than-anticipated revenue and issuing an upbeat outlook that sent shares surging 6.4%.

The company posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.22 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, beating the analyst consensus of $0.16 by 37.5%. Revenue came in at $1.51 billion, surpassing the $1.42 billion estimate and representing a 3.4% increase YoY. The company noted its quarterly performance was bolstered by double-digit sequential growth across all end markets, with revenue rising 14% from the first quarter.

The company’s quarterly results included a $32 million net benefit to operating income due to a contingency payment related to its 2017 acquisition of Nanium, which contributed $0.07 to earnings per share.
