Investment Highlights
Why It Matters
Which of these 2 stories sounds closer for this stock?
1. Generates cash flow
The stock generated 4% or more of the share price (called cash flow yield), and shows moderate 10-15% or more growth.
2. Riding a trend

These companies don’t have enough yield, or, enough growth, or both - however - they are riding a trend. They have momentum. These can be more volatile - they don’t have the floor of strong cash flow

Here are five key points explaining significant positive movement for Navitas Semiconductor (NVTS) for the period leading up to December 4, 2025: 1. 1. Strategic Partnerships and Supply Chain Strengthening: Navitas Semiconductor significantly enhanced its market position through strategic partnerships. In mid-November 2025, the company announced a long-term collaboration with GlobalFoundries to accelerate the development and manufacturing of next-generation Gallium Nitride (GaN) power devices in the U.S., with production slated to begin in late 2026. Additionally, in late November 2025, Navitas expanded its strategic distribution partnership with WT Microelectronics in Asia, consolidating its distributor base to improve customer engagement, logistics, and support for high-power customers in the region. These alliances are designed to bolster the company's supply chain, improve market access, and prepare for future demand in high-power markets. 2. 2. Strategic Pivot to High-Growth, High-Power Markets: Navitas is undergoing a strategic transformation, shifting its focus from lower-profit mobile and consumer businesses in China towards more profitable and sustainable high-power segments. This pivot targets high-growth areas such as AI data centers, electric vehicles (EVs), and industrial electrification, aiming to capitalize on rising demand through 2026 and 2027. The company's collaboration with Nvidia to deliver GaN and SiC chips for upcoming 800V high-voltage direct current (HVDC) data centers, set to launch in 2027, further underscores its commitment to these lucrative markets. 3.
