Engagement with Leading IDM Supporting Global Auto Maker Positions Company for Growth in Automotive Semiconductor Market

VAN NUYS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Trio-Tech International (NYSE MKT: TRT), a comprehensive provider of semiconductor back-end solutions and a global value-added supplier of electronic equipment, today announced that it secured an initial production order valued at approximately $2.5 million as part of an ongoing program engagement to provide advanced burn-in services for a leading automotive integrated device manufacturer (“IDM”). The IDM supplies critical semiconductor components to market-leading global automotive manufacturers.

The order marks Trio-Tech’s expansion into the automotive semiconductor reliability market and reinforces the Company’s growing role in supporting high-volume, safety-critical semiconductor production programs. Automotive-grade semiconductors require adherence to some of the industry’s most rigorous qualification, traceability, and reliability standards, and this engagement validates Trio-Tech’s technical capabilities, operational discipline, and readiness to meet those demanding requirements.

Under the agreement, Trio-Tech will provide burn-in services using its proprietary burn-in systems, engineered for high-reliability automotive applications. The program will ramp up in phases throughout calendar year 2026.

To support the engagement, the Company is making targeted investments to expand capacity, enhance workforce training, and strengthen process controls to ensure consistent performance and full compliance with automotive reliability standards. As production volumes scale, the program is expected to contribute incrementally to consolidated revenue and position Trio-Tech for follow-on opportunities within the customer’s broader automotive semiconductor portfolio.

S.W. Yong, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, commented, “Securing this automotive reliability win is a strategic milestone for Trio-Tech. Following our recent AI-related customer win, which contributed to our 69% year-over-year revenue growth in the first half of our fiscal year, this engagement further demonstrates the strength of our technical capabilities and our ability to execute in high-growth, highly regulated markets. Automotive semiconductor reliability is a long-cycle, high-barrier segment, and we believe this program positions us to capture additional opportunities as advanced vehicle architecture continues to drive semiconductor content growth.”

Semiconductor content per vehicle continues to rise rapidly as global automakers accelerate software-defined vehicle programs, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), and autonomous technologies. These trends are increasing demand for high-reliability testing and burn-in services to ensure long-term performance and safety in mission-critical automotive applications.

With this win, Trio-Tech expands its presence in advanced semiconductor applications, diversifies its customer base to include automotive-grade production programs, and strengthens its positioning to pursue additional reliability-focused engagements with leading semiconductor manufacturers serving regulated end markets.
