(Image credit: Getty Images/Huw Fairclough) Wingtech, the Chinese parent company of Dutch chipmaker Nexperia, has warned investors of a potential cash flow squeeze if it fails to regain operational control of its European subsidiary, despite posting a 280% surge in quarterly net profit. The company's woes and supply disruptions have multiple car makers worldwide preparing for shutdowns as the supply of critical semiconductors for automobiles dwindle.
The alert came via an earnings filing on Friday, in which Wingtech said that Nexperia “may face temporary downward pressure on revenue, profit, and cash flow,” related to governance issues. This is based on a machine translation of the company’s earnings report .
The statement appears to reference the Dutch government’s recent move to tighten oversight of the company , which is one of the largest producers of commodity parts such as diodes, MOSFETs, and small-signal logic used in applications like voltage regulation modules and ESD protection. If geopolitical challenges begin to impair the company’s ability to execute on orders or invest in expansion, impacts could creep in through extended lead times and upstream pricing pressure.
