**Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.**

In August 2025, Beijing Tongmei Xtal Technology Co., Ltd. ("Tongmei"), a subsidiary of AXT, Inc. (the "Company"), was informed that it has satisfied the applicable requirements for a permit to export indium phosphide and has received export permits from the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China to resume shipping indium phosphide substrates to certain additional customers. We believe this will result in several million dollars in revenue that was not included in the Company's third quarter 2025 forecast, provided on July 31, 2025. The export control restrictions follow the Feb. 4, 2025 announcement by the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs of the People's Republic of China to impose export controls on items related to tungsten, tellurium, bismuth, molybdenum, and indium.

**About Beijing Tongmei Xtal Technology**

Beijing Tongmei Xtal Technology is a material science company that develops and manufactures high-performance compound and single element semiconductor substrate wafers comprising indium phosphide (InP), gallium arsenide (GaAs) and germanium (Ge). Beijing Tongmei Xtal Technology is headquartered in Beijing, China and it has manufacturing facilities in three separate locations in China. The company also has partial ownership in joint venture companies that produce raw materials for its manufacturing process. Beijing Tongmei Xtal Technology is a subsidiary of AXT, Inc.

**Safe Harbor Statement**

The foregoing paragraphs contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Federal securities laws, including, for example, statements regarding the issuance and timing of export permits for indium phosphide from the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China and the resumption of shipping indium phosphide substrates to certain customers. Customer order fulfilment and deliveries are subject to normal operational requirements and the uncertainties of complex international regulations applicable to the exportation of dual use materials and other factors as set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Each of these factors is difficult to predict and many are beyond the Company's control. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
