Microchip Technology

Microchip Technology became an independent company in 1989 when it was spun off from General Instrument. More than half of revenue comes from MCUs, which are used in a wide array of electronic devices from remote controls to garage door openers to power windows in autos. The company's strength lies in lower-end 8-bit MCUs that are suitable for a wider range of less technologically advanced devices, but the firm has expanded its presence in higher-end MCUs and analog chips as well.

Shares of semiconductor stocks are trading lower. The sector has been under pressure amid tariff uncertainty.

On Tuesday, Microchip Technology&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHP#NASDAQ">MCHP</a>) released the&nbsp;PIC32A family&nbsp;of MCUs to address the increasing demand for high-performance, math-intensive applications <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/g44242874/microchip-technology-unveils-32-bit-mcu-family-with-integrated-high-performance-analog-peripherals" rel="noreferrer noopener">in various industries</a>.
Enhancing the company&#8217;s already robust 32-bit MCU portfolio, PIC32A MCUs help to deliver cost-efficient, high-performance solutions for general-purpose applications across automotive, industrial, consumer, artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML), and medical markets.
The 200 MHz 32-bit PIC32A family features integrated high-speed analog peripherals.

These features and a high-performance CPU allow for multiple functions to be performed on a single MCU, optimizing both system and bill of material costs.
Additionally, integrated hardware safety and security features such as Error Code Correction (ECC) on Flash and RAM, Memory Built-In Self-Test (MBIST), I/O integrity monitor, clock monitoring, immutable secure boot, and Flash access control features offer safe execution of software code within an embedded control system application.
A 64-bit Floating Point Unit (FPU) in the PIC32A MCU manages data-intensive math processing applications efficiently and allows for easier adoption of model-based designs.
These MCUs assist developers with accelerated execution in computationally intensive applications that require advanced performance in sensor interfacing and data processing.
The PIC32A MCU family is available starting at less than $1 each in volume.
The company reportedly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44081107/microchip-technology-to-cut-workforce-by-2000-employees" rel="noreferrer noopener">plans to cut</a> 2,000 jobs across multiple sites and expects annual savings of up to $100 million. It will likely incur ~$45 million in additional costs related to canceling or modifying long-term supply contracts with wafer foundries.
It plans to close its wafer fabrication facility in Tempe, Arizona (Fab 2), with the shutdown now anticipated in May 2025, several months earlier than originally planned. The company&#8217;s Fab 2 facility and equipment are available for sale.
Price Action: Microchip stock is up 2.38% at $54.72 premarket at last check Tuesday.
Microchip stock plunged 41% in the last 12 months.

Microchip Technology Launched The MPLAB PICkit Basic  In-circuit Debugger To Be A Cost-effective, Powerful Solution For Engineers At Various Levels

President Donald Trump during his joint address to Congress on Tuesday evening called for ending the CHIPS Act, which provides manufacturing incentives to semiconductor companies setting up their facilities in the U.S.
What Happened: During a primetime address to Congress on Tuesday, the president criticized the legislation, saying, "Your Chips Act is a horrible, horrible thing." Trump urged U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson to "get rid" of it and use "whatever is left over" to "reduce debt or any other reason you want to."
According to <a href="https://www.semiconductors.org/chips-incentives-awards/">Semiconductor Industry Association</a>, the CHIPS Program has fueled investments in American semiconductor manufacturing. About $38 billion in grants and loans have been awarded to 32 companies across 23 states, mobilizing over $380 billion in private investment and creating an estimated 145,000 new jobs by 2030. 
Most notably, the Departments of Defense and Commerce awarded Intel Corp. up to $3 billion in CHIPS Act funding to expand domestic manufacturing of advanced semiconductors, strengthening the U.S. supply chain for critical national security needs.
Taiwan Semiconductor Mfg. Co. Ltd., on the other hand, was the recipient of $6.6 billion worth of grants, out of which $5 billion was a loaned amount for setting up projects worth $65 billion in Phoenix, Arizona.
Here are the U.S.-listed beneficiaries that have received grants under the CHIPS Act.

Why It Matters: A few hours before Trump&#8217;s Congress address, TSMC announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44124444/taiwan-semiconductor-rises-as-100-billion-u-s-expansion-defies-market-downturn">plans to invest</a> an additional $100 billion in advanced semiconductor manufacturing in the United States. Building on a $65 billion project already underway in Arizona, this expansion brings the company&#8217;s total U.S. investment to a massive $165 billion. 
Addressing TSMC&#8217;s latest investment, Trump said, &#8220;All that was important to them was they didn't want to pay the tariffs. So they came and they're building. And many other companies are coming. We don't have to give them money, we just want to protect our businesses and our people, and they will come because they won't have to pay tariffs if they build in America.&#8221;

Previously, it had shared plans to close its wafer fabrication facility in Tempe, Arizona (Fab 2), with the shutdown now anticipated in May 2025, several months earlier than originally planned.
Also, the company&#8217;s Fab 2 facility and equipment are available for sale.
As part of these initiatives, Microchip Technology will also be cutting its workforce at various locations, including Fab 4 in Gresham, Oregon, Fab 5 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and its backend manufacturing facility in the Philippines.
Approximately 2,000 employees will be affected, with the company estimating restructuring and severance costs between $30 million and $40 million.
In addition to the $90 million in annual cash savings that Microchip&nbsp;revealed in December 2024, related to its closure of Fab 2, the additional actions in Fab 4 and Fab 5 will reduce the company&#8217;s employment-related costs in its factories by approximately an additional $25 million.

These changes are expected to be finalized by the end of June 2025. The restructuring is aimed at enhancing operational efficiency, with expected annual savings of $90 million to $100 million once fully implemented.
Along with the workforce reduction, Microchip anticipates incurring approximately $45 million in additional costs related to the cancellation or modification of long-term supply contracts with wafer foundries.
These adjustments are being made in response to changes in the company&#8217;s future wafer sourcing strategy.
Although these estimates reflect current expectations, Microchip has noted that the actual costs may differ as more information becomes available.

Microchip Technology To Cut Workforce By 2,000 Employees: Details

Mark Cuban extended his support to President Donald Trump&#8216;s new &#8216;Gold Card&#8217; scheme to obtain U.S. citizenship if these cards were sold to corporations who hire immigrants. Billionaire entrepreneur and Dallas Mavericks owner added that the &#8220;H1b Visa game is ridiculous.&#8221;
What Happened: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43985233/mark-cuban-calls-deductibles-the-biggest-problem-in-healthcare-system-needs-to-be-redesigned">Cuban</a> proposed a new way for high-skilled workers to obtain U.S. citizenship in his latest X post.
Agreeing with President Trump on generating revenue via handing over citizenships, Cuban added that corporations could pay $5 million for an employee earning over $500,000 per year to get immediate citizenship, provided they pass a thorough background check.
Cuban argues that if a person is highly valuable to a company, the company should be willing to pay for the right to employ them in the U.S. He further suggests that if companies are not going to hire American workers, they should at least contribute to the tax base for the privilege of hiring foreign talent.
The billionaire investor also believes the current H-1B visa system, which uses a lottery and has caps, is &#8220;broken.&#8221;

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">I ACTUALLY LIKE THIS IDEA IF WE SELL THEM TO CORPORATIONS. The H1b Visa game is ridiculous. Go to companies and tell them, $5m for any employee making over 500k, and they get immediate citizenship if they pass an advanced background check. Without citizenship , and only 3… <a href="https://t.co/O0xlSUVrBW">https://t.co/O0xlSUVrBW</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
This comes after Trump addressed the amount of revenue that could be generated via selling &#8216;Gold Cards&#8217; during a press conference. He said, &#8220;If we sell a million &#8211; that&#8217;s $5 trillion… if we sell 10 million, that&#8217;s $50 trillion. That means our debt is totally paid off, and we have $15 trillion above that.&#8221;

Why It Matters: As the President and corporate tycoons agree to generate revenue via this route, a 2024 report by the American Immigration Council highlighted that immigrant entrepreneurs make up 22.6% of all entrepreneurs nationwide.
According to the study, from the New American companies that made the 2024 Fortune 500 list, 46%, or 230 companies, were founded by immigrants or their children and each company employs about 67,332 workers.
Here are the names of a few listed entities that are new entrants in the Fortune 500 list, hiring and led by immigrants.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
