Asetek Reports Second Quarter Performance: Growth Strategies Ahead
Asetek Reports Second Quarter Performance
Asetek has reported its second-quarter revenue, amounting to $11.2 million. This figure represents a decrease compared to $12.7 million for the same period in the prior year. Despite the revenue decline, the company maintains its gross margin at an impressive 45%, aligning with the previous year’s quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA and Revenue Overview
In Q2 2025, adjusted EBITDA totalled $82 thousand, which is lower than the $239 thousand reported in Q2 2024. Additionally, the first-half results indicate a revenue of $21.0 million, down from $24.9 million in the first half of 2024. These changes can be attributed mostly to reduced shipments of liquid cooling products.
Liquid Cooling and SimSports Breakdown
Revenue from the company’s Liquid Cooling segment amounted to $9.8 million, showing an uptick from $8.6 million in Q1 2025; however, it was down from $11 million in Q2 2024. SimSports revenue performed as anticipated, standing at $1.3 million, compared to $1.7 million in Q2 2024. The overall forecast for Asetek indicates a revenue range between $45 million to $53 million for the entirety of 2025, alongside an adjusted EBITDA projection between 0% and 3%.
Innovative Product Launches and Growth Strategies
CEO André S. Eriksen emphasized the company’s resolve to navigate ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties, highlighting their commitment to strong momentum with both new and existing Liquid Cooling clients. A notable moment is the launch of the Initium sim racing product lineup at a prominent gaming convention, which significantly broadens their market reach.
Financial Positioning and Product Development
To bolster financial stability and facilitate ongoing investments in SimSports, Asetek executed an equity rights offering that raised $10.3 million by issuing nearly 220 million new common shares. In the first half of 2025, Asetek invested $0.5 million in property and equipment, along with $1.4 million for product development. As of the end of June 2025, the company had a working capital of $11.3 million, including $7.3 million in cash equivalents.
New Product and Customer Collaborations
This year, Asetek unveiled the Ingrid, a cutting-edge liquid cooling platform designed to deliver superior performance and flexibility. Additionally, a partnership was established with Antec, leading to the introduction of mainstream liquid cooling products based on Asetek's innovative design, with expectations for delivery in the latter part of 2025. Furthermore, Asetek has launched its Forte Formula Pro Steering Wheel to cater to simulation racing enthusiasts.
Future Outlook
Looking ahead, Asetek is prepared to launch several new products throughout 2025, both in Liquid Cooling and SimSports. The expectation is that revenue for Liquid Cooling will see improvements in 2026, supported by new product introductions and strategic collaborations aimed at expanding their customer base. The anticipated launches include offerings designed specifically for the mid-market segment.
