On March 9, 2025, Parade and Spectra7, a Canadian analog semiconductor company, announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Parade will acquire the majority of Spectra7’s assets. These assets include intellectual property (IP), products, designs, inventory, and other specified items. With the purchase of the majority of Spectra7’s assets, Parade is positioned to further strengthen its global leadership in high-speed connectivity solutions. The purchase will enable Parade to both continue marketing Spectra7’s existing advanced active cable product portfolio and to leverage Spectra7’s technology in new high speed solutions. Parade anticipates that Spectra7’s cutting-edge SiGe-technology, achieving data speeds of 112 Gbps and higher, will provide valuable support for Parade’s efforts to expand into high-growth markets such as data centers, AI-powered computing, and next-generation consumer electronics. In addition, as part of the acquisition, a significant number of Spectra7’s employees will join Parade, ensuring continuity of technical expertise and customer support.  This strategic purchase will further empower Parade’s ongoing efforts to deliver faster, more energy-efficient signal integrity connectivity solutions that meet the evolving demands of today’s data-driven world.

Based on current business outlook, Parade is providing the following guidance for the second quarter of fiscal 2025:

  • Revenue: US$121.0 ~134.0 Million
  • Gross Margin: 42% ~46%
  • Operating Expense: US$32.0 ~35.0 Million
  • The actual demand in Q2 will be impacted by tariff situation which is hard to predict
