Ambiq Micro Q2 net loss narrows to $9.1m as sales rise 89.7%

Gross profit more than doubled to $19.6m (US$15.3m) from $9.2m (US$7.2m).

Ambiq Micro narrowed its net loss to $9.1m (US$7.1m) in the second quarter (Q2) of 2026 from $10.9m (US$8.5m) a year earlier, as net sales jumped 89.7% to $43.4m (US$33.9m).

Gross profit more than doubled to $19.6m (US$15.3m) from $9.2m (US$7.2m), whilst gross margin improved to 45% from 40.1%, according to a bourse filing.

The company attributed the sales growth to new product launch ramps, increased use of its newer products, and the introduction of a new major customer product during the quarter.

Higher average selling prices also supported gross profit and margin, it added.

Meanwhile, operating expenses in Q2 increased to approximately $30.7m (US$24m) from $20.5m (US$16m).

Research and development expenses rose 58.9% to $18m (US$14.1m), on the back of higher intellectual property and technology spending, and increased contractor, compensation, and stock-based compensation costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses climbed 39.4% to $12.7m (US$9.9m), reflecting higher stock-based and variable compensation, sales commissions, and costs associated with operating as a public company.

Ambiq’s operating loss narrowed slightly to $11.1m (US$8.7m) from $11.3m (US$8.8m).

Other income increased to $2m (US$1.6m) from $403,200 (US$315,000), mainly due to higher interest income earned on cash raised through its initial public offering and subsequent follow-on offerings.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
