Why onsemi (ON) Shares Are Trading Lower Today

What Happened?

Shares of analog chips maker onsemi (NASDAQ:ON) fell 8.1% in the morning session after the company reported weak fourth-quarter results: revenue and EPS missed analysts' estimates. Its revenue and EPS guidance for next quarter also fell short of Wall Street's estimates. Management's comments suggest the business is still navigating "a market downturn." The weakness is most pronounced in its power and advanced solutions groups, where sales fell sequentially and compared to the previous year. Overall, this was a challenging quarter.

onsemi is down 22.8% since the beginning of the year, and at $47.66 per share, it is trading 42.6% below its 52-week high of $82.96 from March 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of onsemi’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $2,320.
