“ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON) is a $23 billion market cap supplier of intelligent power and sensing solutions to the automotive, industrial, aerospace and defense, medical, and communication market. Over the last three months these markets experienced strong headwinds driven by macro and geopolitical trends complicated by excess inventory accumulated during the supply chain disruption triggered by the pandemic. Despite the strong headwinds, ON remained profitable and cash flow positive, as management focused on cost reduction and focusing of its product offering. There are indications that ON markets are stabilizing and the excess inventory is mostly depleted, and that current shipment is close to actual market demand after a period of under shipment. We expect improvement in ON financials as it benefits from the cost improvement steps implemented and the refocusing of its product offering. At initiation during the fourth quarter of 2025, shares of ON met two of the five valuation characteristics (price to cash flow, price to book).”
