Core Viewpoint - Wolfspeed, a pioneer in the semiconductor industry, has filed for bankruptcy due to overwhelming debt and inability to adapt to market changes, particularly the rise of Chinese competitors [3][22]. Group 1: Company Background - Wolfspeed was once the largest manufacturer of silicon carbide (SiC) substrates, with a peak market value of $16.5 billion (approximately 120 billion RMB) [3]. - The company originated from Cree Research, founded in 1987, and became a leader in the LED market before transitioning to SiC technology [8][12]. - Wolfspeed's market share in SiC substrates was as high as 80% in the past, but it has significantly declined to 33.7% by 2024 due to increased competition from Chinese firms [16]. Group 2: Financial Struggles - As of March, Wolfspeed had approximately $1.33 billion in cash reserves but faced $6.5 billion in debt, leading to severe liquidity issues [20]. - The company has reported net losses for ten consecutive years, with losses escalating from $280 million in FY 2018 to $864 million in FY 2024 [21]. - In May 2025, Wolfspeed's stock plummeted by 57%, resulting in a market value loss exceeding $1 billion [21]. Group 3: Market Dynamics - The demand for SiC semiconductors surged in sectors like electric vehicles and renewable energy, with over 60% of the demand coming from the EV market [20]. - Despite the high demand, Wolfspeed's expansion efforts did not yield the expected orders, particularly as the EV market faced a slowdown [20]. - The company's strategy of aggressive capacity expansion did not align with market realities, leading to underutilization of its new facilities [22][23]. Group 4: Competitive Landscape - Chinese competitors have leveraged their mature manufacturing capabilities to challenge Wolfspeed, which failed to adequately address the Chinese market's dynamics [3][24]. - Other global players, such as STMicroelectronics and Infineon, have pursued vertical integration and partnerships with Chinese firms, further intensifying competition [17].

智通财经APP获悉，碳化硅半导体制造商Wolfspeed(WOLF.US)周一宣布，已根据美国破产法第11章自 愿申请破产保护，以进行债务重组，预计今年第三季度末完成重组。数据显示，这是今年迄今为止规模 最大的破产申请之一，仅次于巴西航空公司Azul SA和卫星公司Ligado Networks。受此消息影响， Wolfspeed周一美股盘后暴涨近95%。 根据最新披露的破产重组协议，Wolfspeed 的总债务在重组前为65亿美元。 作为与债权人达成的一项重 组协议的一部分。Wolfspeed计划通过破产重组获得2.75亿美元的新融资并削减约70%的债务(约46亿美 元)来缓解其财务压力。该公司的主要债权人主要包括阿波罗全球管理(APO.US)、日本MCU芯片巨头瑞 萨电子。 Wolfspeed表示："通过采取这一举措，公司有望更好地执行长期增长战略，并加速实现盈利。"该公司 补充称，其目前的现金流约13亿美元，足以在重组期间维持正常运营，且不会中断对客户的服务或对员 工的薪酬和福利。 分析人士指出，Wolfspeed走向破产危机主要是因为错判市场形势并采取高负债的激进扩张计划。押注 新能源市场对碳化硅市场 ...

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the evolution and challenges faced by Wolfspeed (formerly CREE) in the silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductor market, particularly in the context of the electric vehicle (EV) industry and the company's strategic decisions that led to its decline. Group 1: Company Background and Market Position - CREE, founded in 1987, initially struggled for recognition in the semiconductor industry until the rise of electric vehicles, particularly Tesla's Model 3, highlighted its dominance in SiC production, holding 60% of the global SiC wafer capacity [3][5]. - The transition from traditional silicon to SiC in Tesla's Model 3 inverter showcased the advantages of SiC, such as lower weight and higher efficiency, which positioned CREE as a key player in the EV supply chain [4][8]. Group 2: Strategic Decisions and Market Dynamics - In 2017, under new CEO Gregg Lowe, CREE shifted focus from LED to SiC semiconductors, leading to a significant increase in semiconductor revenue share from 10% to 53% by 2021 [20][19]. - The rebranding to Wolfspeed and the divestment of the LED business were bold moves aimed at solidifying its position in the SiC market, but the company faced challenges in scaling production and managing costs [21][20]. Group 3: Production Challenges and Competitive Landscape - The production of SiC wafers is complex and costly, with slower growth rates compared to silicon wafers, leading to high production costs and inefficiencies [13][9]. - As the EV market expanded, competition intensified, with other companies entering the SiC space, leading to a need for Wolfspeed to either expand its 6-inch wafer capacity or invest in 8-inch wafer production [24][26]. Group 4: Financial Performance and Future Outlook - Despite initial optimism, Wolfspeed's financial performance deteriorated, with a 12% revenue decline in 2024 and significant stock price drops, attributed to underutilization of its new 8-inch facility and rising competition from Chinese firms [34][37]. - The company's heavy investment in 8-inch production without immediate returns raised concerns among investors, leading to a significant drop in market value and ultimately resulting in bankruptcy proceedings [40][39]. Group 5: Industry Implications - The article highlights the broader implications for the semiconductor industry, emphasizing that cost control is critical in a highly competitive market where product standardization is prevalent [41][42]. - The challenges faced by Wolfspeed may signal a larger trend of consolidation and restructuring within the semiconductor supply chain, particularly in the context of the evolving EV market [45].

以下文章来源于远川科技评论 ，作者何律衡 远川科技评论 . 刻画这个时代（的前沿科技） 2018年夏天，伴随特斯拉Model 3开始交付，全球范围内掀起了一股拆解Model 3的热潮。华尔街分析师们顺藤摸瓜，摸到一家名叫 CREE（科锐） 的小公司。 CREE成立于1987年，早在1993年就上市，但在巨人林立的半导体从产业长期缺乏存在感。随着Model 3的上市交付，产业界惊讶地发 现，这家年收入不到4亿美元的小公司牢牢掐住了新能源车的命脉—— 碳化硅 。 同一时期，研究机构Munro&Associates发布Model 3拆解报告，第一次揭开了碳化硅的庐山真面目。 在Model 3的动力输出核心部件 逆变器 中，特斯拉把传统的硅材料换成了碳化硅，总重量仅为4.8kg，不到竞品的一半（日产聆风为 11.15kg）[1]，耐高压、低损耗，困扰业界的诸多难题一次性解决。 Model 3逆变器中的碳化硅MOSFET 但在当时，全世界60%的碳化硅晶圆产能都掌握在CREE手里，下游的半导体公司只能排队找CREE预订产能。 正所谓酒壮怂人胆，CREE一不做二不休，卖光了跟半导体无关的所有业务，并更名为Wolfspee ...
