Insights
Atomera advances MST technology through equipment vendor partnership, expanded ST Micro applications, and first GaN devices with Sandia.
Atomera's Q1 announcement highlights strategic advancement for their MST semiconductor enhancement technology. The collaboration with an unnamed leading capital equipment company represents a potential inflection point. In semiconductor manufacturing, equipment vendor partnerships can significantly accelerate technology adoption by integrating new processes into established fabrication systems that chipmakers already trust and use.
The company reports expanded engagements with ST Microelectronics and their RFSOI customers to new applications. ST Micro's position as a major global semiconductor manufacturer makes their continued interest particularly noteworthy, as their product portfolio spans automotive, industrial, personal electronics, and communications infrastructure markets.
Perhaps most technically significant is Atomera's development of first MST-enabled GaN (Gallium Nitride) devices at Sandia National Laboratories, with electrical testing now underway. This expansion beyond silicon demonstrates MST's potential versatility. GaN technology is increasingly critical for high-power, high-frequency applications including power conversion, RF amplification, and emerging applications where silicon reaches physical limitations.
These developments collectively suggest Atomera is executing on multiple fronts to build technology credibility and create potential commercialization pathways, though as typical in semiconductor materials development, the progression from technical validation to commercial revenue often requires multiple years of qualification and integration work.
Atomera's widening losses and cash burn continue while pre-revenue development progresses; strategic partnerships may accelerate commercialization timeline.
Atomera's Q1 2025 financial results demonstrate the company's ongoing pre-revenue investment phase. The company reported a net loss of
The press release notably lacks mention of any revenue figures, suggesting limited or no revenue generation in the quarter as the company continues to focus on technology development and partnership building.

The strategic marketing agreement with a capital equipment vendor and expanded customer engagements represent potential catalysts for future commercialization, though the press release provides no specific projections or timelines. For semiconductor materials companies like Atomera, the path from technology development to meaningful licensing revenue typically requires sustained investment through extended qualification cycles and integration into customer manufacturing processes.
With 30.7 million shares outstanding as of March 31, 2025, investors should monitor both technological progress and financial metrics in coming quarters for signs of commercial traction that could eventually translate to licensing revenue.

Note about Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the unaudited results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, in this press release, Atomera presents adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by taking net loss and eliminating the impacts of interest, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. Our definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the definitions of similarly-titled measures used by other companies. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported GAAP results, provides useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results. This metric is used as part of the Company's internal reporting to evaluate its operations and the performance of senior management. A table reconciling this measure to the comparable GAAP measure is available in the accompanying financial tables below.

Safe Harbor
This press release contains forward-looking statements concerning Atomera Incorporated, including statements regarding the prospects for the semiconductor industry generally and the ability of our MST technology to significantly improve semiconductor performance. Those forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially. Among those factors are: (1) the fact that, to date, we have only recognized minimal engineering services and licensing revenues and we have not yet commenced principal revenue producing operations, thus subjecting us to all of the risks inherent in an early-stage enterprise途 (2) the risk that STMicroelectronics does not proceed with qualification of MST in its manufacturing process or does not take MST-enabled products to market, (3) risks related to our ability to successfully complete the milestones in our joint development agreements or, even if successfully completed, to reach a commercial distribution license with our JDA customers; (4) risks related to our ability to advance licensing arrangements with our integration licensees to royalty-based manufacturing and distribution licenses or our ability to add other licensees; (5) risks related to our ability to raise sufficient capital, as and when needed, to pursue the further development, licensing and commercialization of our MST technology途 (6) our ability to protect our proprietary technology, trade secrets and know颅how and (7) those other risks disclosed in the section "Risk Factors" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 4, 2025. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
