China adds Vigo Photonics to dual-use export ban list, potentially curbing InP substrate supply
  • China’s commerce ministry added Vigo Photonics to a list barring exports of dual-use items from China.
  • Infrared detector and module revenue expected to be unaffected; key substrates already sourced mainly from Japan and Europe.
  • Military infrared array plans also seen unchanged; non-Chinese suppliers can cover full substrate demand.
  • Semiconductor materials unit faces the main risk; limited access to InP substrates used for about half of segment revenue.
  • That segment contributed 8.8% of 2025 revenue; China shipments may still be possible via export licenses.
