- Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies
Basis of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and include the accounts of Silvaco and all of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries with operations in North America, Europe, Asia and South America. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from these condensed consolidated financial statements, as permitted by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 5, 2025. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. In management’s opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s operating results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any other future interim or annual period.
Emerging growth company status
The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act, until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that the Company (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition. Other estimates include, but are not limited to, accounts receivable allowances, stock-based compensation expense, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, contingent consideration, derivative valuations, uncertain tax positions, legal contingencies and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of credit risk
Accounts receivable from customers representing 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable were as follows:
| June 30, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Customer A | 21% | * |
| Customer B | 21% | * |
| Customer C | 9% | * |
| Customer D | * | 21% |
| Customer E | * | 15% |
- Customer accounted for less than 10% of total accounts receivable at period end.
Revenue from customers representing 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue was as follows:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |
| Customer B | 11% | * | * | * |
| Customer F | * | 37% | * | 19% |
- Customer accounted for less than 10% of total revenue during the period.
In addition to the concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables and revenue, the Company's cash on deposit with financial institutions is also exposed to concentration risk. The Company's cash on deposit with financial institutions is insured through various public and private bank deposit insurance programs, foreign and domestic; however, a significant portion of cash balances held as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 exceeded insured limits.
As of June 30, 2025, $19.3 million, or 65%, of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash was maintained with one financial institution, where the Company’s current deposits are in excess of federally insured limits, and $4.1 million, or 13.9%, was held by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.
Restricted cash
As of June 30, 2025, the Company held restricted cash of $16.5 million to secure an irrevocable standby letter of credit issued in connection with a litigation settlement entered into in May 2025 (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the former shareholders of Nangate, Inc. (“Nangate”) and a third cross-complainant (together, the “Nangate Parties”). Of the remaining $16.5 million due under the Settlement Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay $14.4 million. See Note 6, Related Parties, and Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, for additional information. The letter of credit, secured with East West Bank on May 17, 2025, is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2025, no amounts had been drawn under the letter of credit. Restricted cash is classified as a current asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the expected expiration date of the letter of credit.
Accumulated other comprehensive loss
Accumulated other comprehensive loss is composed of foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities.
Foreign currencies
The financial statements of Silvaco's international subsidiaries with local functional currencies are translated to U.S. dollars upon consolidation. Assets and liabilities are translated at the effective exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Results of operations are translated at average exchange rates, which approximate rates in effect when the underlying transactions occur. The Company recorded foreign currency translation adjustments of $0.8 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, within accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Certain of the Company’s sales and intercompany transactions are denominated in foreign currencies. These transactions are recorded in functional currency at the appropriate exchange rate on the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the Company's functional currency or its subsidiaries' functional currencies are remeasured at the effective exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in interest and other expense, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded net foreign exchange transaction losses of $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, andimmaterial net foreign exchange transaction losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Net loss per share
Basic net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Because the Company was in a loss position for all periods presented, the diluted earnings per share are equal to the basic earnings per share as the effect of potentially dilutive securities would have been antidilutive.
The following outstanding securities were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires additional disclosure of certain amounts included in the expense captions presented on the statements of (loss) income as well as disclosures about selling expenses. This ASU is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
- Revenue
The Company's revenue is derived principally from contracts which promise to deliver combinations of software licensing and related maintenance and services, which are accounted for as separate performance obligations with differing revenue recognition patterns. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling price. Software license revenue consists of the Company’s software sold under a software license and is generally recognized upon shipment and delivery of license keys. Maintenance and service revenue consists of both maintenance revenues, which is recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement, and professional services revenues which is recognized based on when the Company delivers the related service pursuant to the terms of the arrangement.
Customer contracts
The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when both parties have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party’s rights and payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration it is entitled to. Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised software or providing service to a customer.
For multi-year software licenses, the Company generally invoices customers annually at the beginning of each annual coverage period.
Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations
As of June 30, 2025, approximately $36.4 million of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations. Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes both deferred revenue and backlog. The Company's backlog represents installment billings for periods beyond the current billing cycle. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 50% of these remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months, with the remaining balance recognized thereafter.
Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue is comprised mainly of unearned revenue related to maintenance and service on software licenses and pending software license deliveries. Deferred revenue also includes contracts for professional services to be performed in the future.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $3.6 million that was included in the total deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2024. All other activity in deferred revenue is due to the timing of invoices in relation to the timing of revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as described above.
- Acquisitions
Optical Proximity Correction Suite of Tools
On March 4, 2025, the Company consummated an asset purchase agreement with Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (“Cadence”), pursuant to which, among other things, Silvaco agreed to acquire certain assets and assume certain liabilities comprising Cadence’s Process Proximity Compensation product line, an optical proximity correction suite of tools (the “OPC Business”), in exchange for $11.5 million in cash.
The Company expects that the addition of the OPC suite of tools and expert team, which are complementary to Silvaco’s EDA and TCAD suite, will enhance Silvaco’s ability to offer advanced computational lithography solutions that address the increasing complexity of semiconductor manufacturing at advanced nodes.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, and Silvaco recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition. Silvaco recorded the excess of consideration transferred over the aggregate fair values of acquired assets and assumed liabilities as goodwill. The goodwill recorded was primarily attributable to synergies expected to arise after the acquisition and the value of the acquired workforce, and is expected to be deductible for U.S. income tax purposes.
The following is a summary of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the OPC Business acquisition.
| Asset Type | Weighted Average Amortization Period (Years) | Fair Value |
|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | ||
| Contract asset | $615 | |
| Developed Technology | 7 | 1,000 |
| Customer Relationships | 6 | 4,990 |
| Goodwill | 5,311 | |
| Deferred revenue | (416) | |
| Net assets acquired and liabilities assumed | $11,500 | |
The fair value of developed technology was determined using a discounted cash flow model through application of the income approach, using the relief-from-royalty method, which assumed a market-based royalty rate applied to projected revenue. The fair value of customer relationships was determined using a discounted cash flow model under the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method, which discounts future cash flows attributable to existing customers, net of operating expenses and contributory asset charges.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred $0 and $0.6 million of acquisition-related expenses in connection with the acquisition of the OPC Business, which were recognized as general and administrative expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The operating results of the OPC Business have been included in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition and were not material for the periods presented. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects of this acquisition were not material to the Company's condensed consolidated financial results.
Tech-X Corporation
On April 29, 2025, the Company consummated a stock purchase agreement with the shareholders of Tech-X Corporation (“Tech-X”), pursuant to which Silvaco agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Tech-X for an aggregate purchase price of $8.0 million. The purchase consideration consisted of (i) $3.9 million in cash, (ii)457,666 shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $2.4 million on the closing date, and (iii) contingent consideration, with a maximum payout of $2.0 million, and with an estimated fair value of $1.7 million, payable in cash upon the achievement of specified technical milestones through December 2026. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a discounted cash flow model utilizing a probability weighted analysis, and is re-valued period to period with any changes recorded to interest and other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of loss. Refer to Note 12, Fair Value of Financial Instruments, for further information.
The Company believes that integrating Tech-X’s advanced multi-physics simulation tools with Silvaco’s Victory TCAD platform will enhance customers’ ability to develop more accurate digital twin models for photonics, semiconductor devices, and wafer-scale plasma etching.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. The Company recognized the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the total consideration transferred over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is primarily attributable to expected synergies from the integration of Tech-X’s technologies with the Company’s existing platform and the value of the acquired workforce. The goodwill is not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes.
The following is a summary of the preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Tech-X acquisition.
| Asset Type | Weighted Average Amortization Period (Years) | Fair Value |
|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | ||
| Cash | $851 | |
| Accounts receivable | 749 | |
| Prepaid expenses and other current assets | 40 | |
| Property and equipment | 58 | |
| Customer relationships | 6 | 1,730 |
| Developed technology | 7 | 1,280 |
| Tradename | 2 | 130 |
| Goodwill | 4,355 | |
| Accounts payable | (104) | |
| Accrued expenses and other current liabilities | (450) | |
| Deferred tax liability | (566) | |
| Deferred revenue | (80) | |
| Net assets acquired and liabilities assumed | $7,993 | |
The fair value of customer relationships was determined using a discounted cash flow model under the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method, which discounts future cash flows attributable to existing customers, net of operating expenses and contributory asset charges. The fair value of developed technology and tradename was determined using a discounted cash flow model under the income approach, specifically the relief-from-royalty method, which assumes a market-based royalty rate applied to projected revenues.
The Company has made a preliminary allocation of the purchase price at the date of acquisition based on its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company is in the process of obtaining all information related to the working capital assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the Company may make adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocations during the one year measurement period from the date of acquisition until such working capital adjustments are final.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred $0.8 million in acquisition-related expenses in connection with the acquisition of Tech-X, recognized as general and administrative expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The operating results of Tech-X have been included in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition and were not material for the periods presented. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects of this acquisition were not material to the Company's condensed consolidated financial results.
