Navitas Elevates Avnet to Global Distribution Partner to Drive Push Into AI Power Markets

The expanded pact positions Avnet to provide worldwide sales and engineering support for Navitas’ GaN and SiC power chips across high-power applications.

Overview

  • Navitas said on Dec. 11 that Avnet is now a globally franchised distributor, expanding beyond the prior Avnet Silica relationship in Europe.
  • The partnership targets AI data centers, high‑performance computing, renewable energy, grid infrastructure, and industrial electrification.
  • The move aligns with Navitas’ shift away from China-focused mobile and consumer channels toward higher-power, growth markets.
  • Through Q3 2025, revenue fell to $38.6 million from $65.3 million in 2024 and the company reported a $66.4 million operating loss with $77.8 million in operating expenses.
  • Management guided Q4 revenue to about $7 million versus $18 million a year earlier and the company named Chris Allexandre CEO in August following Gene Sheridan’s departure.
