Movella Holdings Inc announced on Wednesday that it has reduced its employee headcount by about 20% due to prevailing market conditions.
The sensors maker also said it has chosen to restructure its operations by exiting certain non-core business activities.
Movella expects the corporate initiatives will result in quarterly cost savings of about $2.0 million.
The company added that it expects to take a restructuring charge of between approximately $1.1 million and $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Shares of Movella slipped 4% to $0.70 in late-morning trading on Wednesday.
Movella Holdings went public in February this year following a merger with SPAC Pathfinder Acquisition Corp that valued the combined entity at an enterprise value of $504 million.
The company now sports a market capitalization of just $35 million.
