SkyWater Technology, LLC

SkyWater Technology, Inc. is a U.S.-based, independent semiconductor manufacturer that provides foundational-node manufacturing, advanced technology development, and advanced packaging services. The company operates exclusively within the United States, with fabrication and packaging facilities located in Minnesota, Texas, and Florida. SkyWater's operations are designed to support customers requiring secure, domestic manufacturing, long product life cycles, high reliability, and close engineering collaboration. Its business model integrates production-scale manufacturing with advanced technology development, allowing customers to efficiently move specialized semiconductor technologies from development to volume production. SkyWater supports a wide range of applications where continuity of supply, manufacturability, and long-term availability are as critical as device performance, serving both commercial and government customers. The Minnesota fabrication facility was previously owned and operated by Cypress Semiconductor Corporation as a captive manufacturing facility for 26 years. SkyWater became an independent company in 2017 following its acquisition by an affiliate of Oxbow Industries, LLC as part of a divestiture from Cypress. The company converted into a Delaware corporation and changed its name to SkyWater Technology, Inc. before its initial public offering (IPO). On April 23, 2021, SkyWater completed its IPO, issuing 8,004,000 shares of common stock, which began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market on April 21, 2021, under the symbol "SKYT". The company focuses on foundational nodes, which are mature and specialty process technologies typically manufactured on 200 millimeter (mm) wafers at technology nodes such as 28 nanometer (nm) and larger, performing critical functions like sensing, power management, and signal conditioning.
