Bank of America just raised its EUR/USD forecast
AXT, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXTI) reported Tuesday that its subsidiary, Beijing Tongmei Xtal Technology Co., Ltd., has received export permits from the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China to resume shipping indium phosphide substrates to additional customers. The company stated that the permits were granted after Tongmei satisfied the applicable requirements for exporting indium phosphide.
AXT indicated that the new export permits are expected to result in several million dollars in revenue that was not included in the company’s third quarter 2025 forecast, which was previously provided on July 31. The announcement follows export control restrictions imposed by Chinese authorities on February 4, 2025, covering items related to tungsten, tellurium, bismuth, molybdenum, and indium.
Beijing Tongmei Xtal Technology, headquartered in Beijing, develops and manufactures semiconductor substrate wafers, including indium phosphide, gallium arsenide, and germanium. The company operates manufacturing facilities in three locations in China and holds partial ownership in joint ventures that produce raw materials for its processes.
The information is based on a press release statement included in the company’s filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
