American Superconductor Corporation (NASDAQ: AMSC) shares experienced a sharp rise in value when the company’s fiscal Q1 2025 results were released. As of the last market check, AMSC’s stock was up 26.24% at $55.47.
The company’s first-quarter revenues of $72.4 million were a substantial increase over the $40.3 million recorded in fiscal 2024. The purchase of NWL, Inc. and excellent organic performance were credited with this high year-over-year increase.
Fourth Consecutive Quarter of Profitability
In contrast to a net loss of $2.5 million, or $0.07 per share, during the same time last year, American Superconductor posted a net income of $6.7 million, or $0.17 per share.

Market Demand and Strategic Expansion Fuel Revenue Growth
Revenue for its fiscal first quarter increased by an astonishing 80% year over year. This achievement marked AMSC’s fourth straight quarter of profitability and a gross margin improvement of more than 30%.
Strong demand in the semiconductor sector, particularly from data center and artificial intelligence applications, was a major factor in maintaining momentum. Additionally, steady bookings and backlogs showed AMSC’s ability to maintain operational consistency.
Positive Prognosis for Q2 2025
American Superconductor has high hopes for its future development. The fiscal second quarter, which concludes on September 30, 2025, is expected to generate between $65.0 million and $70.0 million in revenue for the company. Non-GAAP net income is expected to reach $6.0 million, or $0.14 per share, while net income is expected to surpass $2.0 million, or $0.05 per share.
These results show that AMSC can continue to expand its operations, diversify its revenue streams, and provide strong financial results in each of its main markets.
