Sivers Semiconductors Pivots to AI Data Centers as Shares Slip in Chip Rout
Published on 11/15/2026 at 14:11 | Editorial boerse-global.de
Sivers Semiconductors is repositioning itself away from a project-driven business model toward a more product-focused operation, with opportunities around artificial-intelligence data centers squarely in its sights. That strategic shift, reported Wednesday by Compound Semiconductor, has been unfolding alongside a pair of high-profile announcements — yet it did little to shield the stock from a broader tech selloff.
Shares of the Swedish company fell 6.4% on Friday to close at €1.32, caught up in a wide retreat across technology and semiconductor names. Reuters linked the pressure to fresh uncertainty over the artificial-intelligence business, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index dropping 4% on worries centered on Nvidia and the wider AI sector. European equities were weaker as well.
A Distribution Deal With Global Reach
Central to the company's commercial push is a global sales agreement with WT Microelectronics, unveiled on Wednesday. The arrangement covers Sivers' InP lasers as well as its wireless beamformer products, and it hands worldwide distribution of those lines to a partner with an established international customer base. WT's network reaches roughly 25,000 customers across about 43 countries, according to the terms of the deal.
The tie-up means Sivers is leaning on an outside channel to extend the reach of both its laser offering and its beamformer portfolio, rather than building that footprint itself.

Inside the Technology Story
The distribution pact landed the same week as a Compound Semiconductor interview that put the company's manufacturing and product strategy under the microscope. Published Wednesday, the discussion focused on hybrid production of InP lasers and the expansion of the Glasgow fab.
That interview followed an earlier one with CEO Vickram Vathulya, released on November 9, in which he laid out the requirements for lasers used in data connections within AI data centers. The conversation also covered the integration of optical and electronic components — so-called co-packaged optics — and the company's collaboration with GlobalFoundries and Jabil.
Short Interest Edges Higher
Alongside the price move, positioning data from the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's short-selling register showed GSA Capital Partners holding a Sivers position of 0.81%, up from 0.70% previously.
