Arm to develop own chips; stock falls as outlook disappoints
UNITED KINGDOM, JUL 30 – Arm is investing in developing its own chips to diversify beyond licensing, but its second-quarter profit forecast fell below analyst estimates, causing an 8% stock decline, analysts said.
- On Wednesday, Arm Holdings announced it is investing in developing its own chips, marking a shift from its licensing model, Haas said.
- Departing from its licensing roots, Arm introduced Compute Subsystems several years ago to simplify SoC development and diversify into data center markets.
- Claiming `Our Compute Subsystems, CSS, are helping customers move faster and the demand has exceeded our expectations. Our first generation of CSS is now in market with five customers and is delivering double the royalty of Armv9,` Haas said during a conference call.
- Investors reacted by sending Arm shares down around 8 per cent on Wednesday and plunged 12 per cent on Thursday after muted guidance.
- Amid tariff volatility, Arm's outlook underscores global trade tensions, with smartphone shipments increasing just 1 per cent in the April-June period, Haas said.
