Lattice Semiconductor Corporation — Cyborg Score 7/10

Strong
Semiconductor Manufacturing - Programmable Logic (FPGAs)

Strategic Profile

After AMD completed the acquisition of Xilinx in February 2022, Lattice Semiconductor became the last fully independent major manufacturer of FPGAs. The company's balance sheet reflects strong financial health, with a current ratio of 3.24 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.03, indicating a robust liquidity position. Company management is currently guiding for a 37.3% year-on-year increase in sales next quarter, with sell-side analysts expecting revenue to grow 20.9% over the next 12 months.
