Shares of SkyWater Technologies (NASDAQ: SKYT) dropped over 30% after Q1 2024 earnings update but have rebounded slightly. The unique business model relies heavily on Advanced Technology Services (ATS) revenue, which increased 28% year over year to $79.6 million in Q1. However, ATS is not a profitable source of revenue and was never designed to be. With a transition year for SkyWater, the focus is on moving customers from ATS to more profitable Wafer Services. Volatility is expected in 2024, making it a high-risk, potentially high-reward stock.
