Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Nature of Business | Nature of Business SkyWater Technology, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “SkyWater,” the “Company,” “it,” or “its”), is a U.S.-based, independent, pure-play technology foundry that offers advanced semiconductor development and manufacturing services from its fabrication facility, or fab, in Minnesota and advanced packaging services from its Florida facility. SkyWater’s technology-as-a-service model leverages a strong foundation of proprietary technology to co-develop process technology intellectual property with its customers that enables disruptive concepts through its Advanced Technology Services for diverse microelectronics (integrated circuits (“ICs”)) and related micro- and nanotechnology applications. In addition to these differentiated technology development services, SkyWater supports customers with volume production of ICs for high-growth markets through its Wafer Services. Emerging Growth Company Status SkyWater is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act, until such time as those standards apply to private companies. SkyWater has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (1) is no longer an emerging growth company; or (2) has affirmatively and irrevocably opted out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, the consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. SkyWater will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (1) the last day of the first fiscal year (A) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of its initial public offering; (B) in which the Company's total annual gross revenue exceeds $1.235 billion; or (C) when the Company is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of the Company’s common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30 th ; or (2) the date on which the Company has issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of U.S. dollars (except share, per share, unit and per unit information) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest, SkyWater Technology Foundry, Inc. (“SkyWater Technology Foundry”), SkyWater Federal, LLC (“SkyWater Federal”), SkyWater Florida, Inc. (“SkyWater Florida”), and Oxbow Realty Partners, LLC (“Oxbow Realty”), a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which SkyWater is the primary beneficiary and an affiliate of the Company’s principal stockholder. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ (deficit) equity and cash flows are for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023 and January 2, 2022. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to the end of the calendar year. The fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022 each contained 52 weeks. Liquidity and Cash Requirements The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business and do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classifications of recorded assets and liabilities as a result of uncertainties. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, the Company incurred net losses attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. of $30,756, $39,593, and $50,696, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $18,382 and $30,025, respectively. SkyWater’s ability to execute its operating strategy is dependent on its ability to maintain liquidity and continue to access capital through the Revolver (as defined in Note 6 – Debt) and other sources of financing. The current business plans indicate that the Company may require additional liquidity to continue its operations and maintain compliance with financial covenants for the next twelve months from the date the consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company has identified specific actions it could take to reduce operating costs to improve cash flow, including reductions in spending and delays in hiring personnel. If such actions are taken, it may require the Company to decrease its level of investment in new products and technologies, or discontinue further expansion of its business. The Company has also obtained a support letter from Oxbow Industries, LLC (“Oxbow Industries”), an affiliate of the Company’s principal stockholder, to provide funding in an amount up to $12,500, if necessary, to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they become due through at least one year following the date these consolidated financial statements are issued. The support letter expires March 18, 2026. Based upon SkyWater’s operational forecasts, cash and cash equivalents on hand, available borrowings on the Revolver, potential cost reduction measures it could undertake, and the support letter from Oxbow Industries, as needed, management believes SkyWater will have sufficient liquidity to fund its operations for the next twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued. Additionally, the Company could seek additional equity or debt financing, including a refinancing and/or expansion of the Revolver, however it cannot provide any assurance that additional funds will be available when needed or, if available, will be available on terms that are acceptable to the Company. The Company’s ability to access additional funds depends on prevailing economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond SkyWater’s control. SkyWater has based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and its operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to it. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods then ended. Management evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and bases its estimates on experience, current and expected future conditions, third-party evaluations, and various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting periods, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the reporting periods determined using the treasury-stock method. Because the Company reported a net loss attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, the number of shares used to calculate diluted net loss per common share is the same as the number of shares used to calculate basic net loss per common share because the potentially dilutive shares would have been anti-dilutive if included in the calculation. At December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, there were restricted stock units and stock options totaling 2,294,000, 2,209,000 and 2,731,000, respectively, excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per common share for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023 and January 2, 2022: Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 January 2, 2022 (in thousands, except per share data) Numerator: Net loss attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. $ (30,756) $ (39,593) $ (50,696) Undistributed preferred return to Class B preferred unitholders — — (398) Net loss attributable to common shareholders $ (30,756) $ (39,593) $ (51,094) Denominator: Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic and diluted (1) 45,507 40,835 29,038 Net loss per common share, basic and diluted $ (0.68) $ (0.97) $ (1.76) __________________ (1) The weighted-average common shares outstanding for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022 reflects the retrospective adjustment for the April 14, 2021 corporate conversion of 2,105,936 common units into 3,060,343 shares of common stock. The April 14, 2021 corporate conversion of 18,000,000 Class B preferred units into 27,995,400 shares of common stock is reflected prospectively on the date of conversion for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022. Center for NeoVation Through SkyWater’s subsidiary, SkyWater Florida, the Company entered into several agreements on January 25, 2021 with the government of Osceola County, Florida (“Osceola”) and ICAMR, Inc., a Florida non-profit corporation, doing business as BRIDG (“BRIDG”), to operate the Center for NeoVation (“CfN”), a semiconductor research and development and manufacturing facility. These agreements included a technology and economic development agreement (the “TED Agreement”), a lease agreement (the “CfN Lease”) and a semiconductor line operation agreement (the “LOA”). Under the TED Agreement and the CfN Lease, SkyWater agreed to operate the CfN, including certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and an advanced water treatment facility currently owned by Osceola for a period of at least 23 years for a lease payment of $1.00 per year. During the period of the CfN Lease, the Company is responsible for taxes, utilities, insurance and maintenance on the facility, and for operation of the facility. The Company may terminate the TED Agreement and CfN Lease with 18 months’ notice. In the event the Company terminates the agreements, it would be required to continue to operate the center until it finds a replacement operator or the 18 months expire and may be required to make a payment of up to $15,000 to Osceola. SkyWater accounts for the CfN Lease as a lease. Given the nominal minimum lease payments required under the lease, the impact to the consolidated balance sheets was insignificant. As the Company performs under the agreements, any expenses it incurs and any revenue it is able to generate from the operations of CfN will be included in the consolidated statements of operations as they are incurred or earned. If the Company is able to reach and maintain full capacity in the CfN for a minimum period of 20 years, Osceola will convey the land, buildings and equipment to SkyWater for no consideration at the end of the CfN Lease. At such time that the Company believes the conveyance of the land, buildings, and equipment is reasonably assured, it will record those assets on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value and record a corresponding deferred gain. The Company will subsequently depreciate the assets over their remaining economic life and recognize an equivalent amount of income from the amortization of the deferred gain. Reportable Segment and Geographic Information Reportable segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. SkyWater operates and manages its business as one reportable segment. See Note 4 – Revenue, for disclosure of revenue by country. All of the Company's long-lived assets are located in the United States. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases,” later codified in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, “Leases” (“Topic 842”). Topic 842 was effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. As an emerging growth company, SkyWater adopted Topic 842 on January 3, 2022 for the year ending January 1, 2023. The guidance in Topic 842 supersedes the guidance in ASC Topic 840, “Leases.” Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize lease right of use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheets. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statements of operations. The Company adopted Topic 842, and all related amendments using the “Comparatives Under 840 Option” transition approach. Under this transition approach, the Company did not restate prior periods, nor restate prior lease disclosures. The Company also elected certain practical expedients allowed by Topic 842 which, among other things, allowed it to carry forward historical lease classification conclusions previously made under Topic 840 and to exclude from the scope of its application of Topic 842 lease arrangements with terms less than twelve months. The most significant impact of adopting Topic 842 was the recognition of lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. The adoption of Topic 842 resulted in the recognition of an initial right-of-use asset lease liability In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” later codified in Topic 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” (“Topic 326”). Topic 326 replaces the preexisting U.S. GAAP guidance that only required the recognition of credit losses when losses were probable and estimable. Topic 326 now requires recognition of credit losses based on SkyWater’s expectation of losses to be incurred while the financial instrument is held. Topic 326 was effective for most public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. As an emerging growth company, SkyWater adopted Topic 326 on January 2, 2023 using the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption, the Company increased its accumulated deficit by $375 for the effects of increasing its allowance for credit losses as of January 2, 2023. All other impacts to SkyWater’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows were immaterial. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting.” The amendments in this update improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. SkyWater will reflect the amended disclosure requirements of this update in its annual consolidated financial statements for its fiscal year ending December 29, 2024 and for the interim periods in its fiscal year ending December 28, 2025. Given that the Company reports as a single reportable segment, the impacts of adopting the provisions of this update will not be significant. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes.” The amendments in this update improve existing income tax disclosures, notably with respect to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures, and are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. As an emerging growth company, SkyWater will adopt the amendments in this update for its fiscal year ending January 3, 2027. The Company is evaluating the impacts of the amendments on its consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements. Cash and Cash Equivalents All highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in its deposit accounts. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for expected credit losses based on the Company’s expectation of losses to be incurred. Management determines the need for an allowance for credit losses through the review of its historical write-offs and recoveries and assessment of current and future economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The Company recorded an allowance for credit losses of $180 and $1,638 at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. Contract Assets Contract assets represent SkyWater’s rights to payments for services it has transferred to its customers but has not yet billed to its customers. Contract assets were $29,666 and $34,625 at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively, and are presented net of allowances for credit losses of $99 and $0, respectively. Inventories Inventories consist of wafer raw materials, work in process, and supplies and spare parts. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Raw materials are stated at weighted-average cost, while work in process inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. When net realizable value (which requires projecting future average selling prices, sales volumes, and costs to complete products in work in process inventories) is below cost, the Company records a charge to cost of goods sold to write down inventories to their estimated net realizable values in advance of when inventories are actually sold. Supplies and spare parts are measured at cost and expensed when utilized. Supplies and spare parts are classified as inventory if expected use is within one year. Supplies and spare parts not expected to be used within one year are classified as other assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As discussed in Note 15 – Inventory Write Down , the write-down of inventory which SkyWater is contracted to manufacture for a specific customer is recorded separately in its consolidated statements of operations within cost of revenue. All other write-downs of inventory are recorded within the caption Cost of revenue. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is recorded at cost when acquired. The costs of additions and improvements are capitalized. The cost of repairs and maintenance are expensed in the period incurred. When equipment is sold or retired, the related net carrying amount of the equipment is derecognized and a gain or loss is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which are generally seven Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist of (1) purchased software and license costs from the Company’s acquisition of the business in 2017; and (2) payments made under software and technology licensing arrangements with third-parties. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the Company acquired third-party software and licensed technology of $1,871 and $3,462, respectively, which will be amortized over a weighted average estimated life of 7.5 years and 9.3 years, respectively. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets SkyWater assesses long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with definite lives, for impairment using a two-step process whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset’s or asset group’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. In the first step, SkyWater assesses the recoverability of the asset or asset group by comparing the carrying amount of the asset or asset group against the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the sum of undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by an asset or asset group exceed the carrying amount of the asset or asset group, the carrying amount of the asset or asset group is recoverable and not impaired; the second step of the assessment is not completed. If the carrying amount of an asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group, SkyWater completes a second step and determines the fair value of the asset or asset group. If the fair value of the asset or asset group exceeds the carrying amount of the asset or asset group, the asset or asset group is not impaired. If the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations to the extent the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group, not to exceed the carrying amount of the asset or asset group. Due to the SkyWater’s history of operating losses, it estimated the fair value of its long-lived assets as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the estimated fair value of the Company’s asset group significantly exceeded its carrying amount. There have been no impairments of long-lived assets during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 or January 1, 2023. Deferred Debt Issuance Costs Deferred debt issuance costs consist of costs incurred in relation to obtaining the Company’s financing and revolving credit facility. These costs are amortized over the life of the related agreements using the effective interest method for its financing and the straight-line method for its revolving credit facilities. The amortization of these costs is included in interest expense. The unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount are presented as a reduction of the outstanding borrowings in the consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and debt discount at the time of an extinguishment of debt are charged to interest expense, as are third-party costs of a modification. Contingent Consideration In connection with SkyWater’s acquisition of the business from Cypress Semiconductor Corporation (“Cypress”), the purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, at fair value, and did not result in any goodwill being recorded. The Company recorded a contingent consideration liability of $24,900 for the future estimated earn-out/royalties owed on Advanced Technology Services revenues, at fair value as of the acquisition date in March 2017. For each reporting period thereafter, the Company revalued future estimated earn-out payments and recorded the changes in fair value of the liability in the consolidated statements of operations. The contingent consideration represented a declining percentage of revenue generated by the sale of Advanced Technology Services through 2022, and were paid quarterly. Contingent consideration of $816 and $7,374 was paid during the fiscal years ended January 1, 2023 and January 2, 2022, respectively. During the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022, the Company recorded a contingent consideration benefit of $2,710 to reflect the change in fair value of the contingent consideration obligation in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. There were no royalty expenses recorded in the years ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, as the last remaining amounts owed to Cypress related to contingent consideration were paid in the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022. Variable Interest Entities The Company evaluates whether an entity is a VIE based on the sufficiency of the entity’s equity at risk and by determining whether the equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. If an entity is a VIE, SkyWater determines if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE by assessing whether it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE as well as the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that may be significant to the VIE. These determinations are both qualitative and quantitative, and they require management to make judgments and assumptions about the VIE’s forecasted financial performance and the volatility inherent in those forecasted results. The Company regularly reviews all existing entities for events that may result in an entity becoming a VIE, or the Company becoming the primary beneficiary of an existing VIE. See Note 16 – Variable Interest Entity . Non-controlling interests reported in shareholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets represent the ownership interests in the consolidated VIE held by entities or persons other than SkyWater. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the Company’s customers, in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To recognize revenue, the Company applies the following five step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the customer contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenues when or as it satisfies a performance obligation. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from all parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of transaction price is reasonably assured. At contract inception, the Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay amounts entitled to the Company when due based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience. See below and Note 4 – Revenue , for further discussion of SkyWater’s revenue characteristics. The Company primarily derives its revenue from the performance of Advanced Technology Services (“ATS”) process development services and the manufacture and delivery of wafers via Wafer Services. ATS development - ATS development contracts are focused on the performance of process development services, the output of which is a manufacturing plan that defines the steps and activities needed to produce customer wafers at high volumes and with high yields. Wafer manufacturing development services do not include services to manufacture customer wafers at scale. ATS development contracts are complex and wafer manufacturing development services are often either the lone performance obligation in an ATS development contract, or the performance obligation to which the majority of the contract value is allocated. The Company has both fixed price and time-and-materials contracts with its ATS development customers. The Company’s ATS development customers receive the benefits of these services, and revenue from performance of these services are recognized over time as they are performed. Revenue on fixed price contracts is recognized using either an output or input method based upon the method that best measures the value of the services performed for the Company’s customers. Whether an input or output method is selected requires judgment and is subject to thorough analysis of the terms of each fixed price contract. The Company consistently uses either its output method or input method for similar performance obligations and in similar circumstances. The Company’s output method of revenue recognition evaluates the steps and activities needed to complete manufacturing development services and relies on surveys of steps and activities completed and partially completed as of the reporting date in relation to the current manufacturing development plans to measure the level of progress on the service. There are many steps and activities included in the Company’s manufacturing development plans. The time and effort to complete the steps and activities are very similar, which demonstrates a level of uniformity. This uniformity accurately conveys the steps and activities successfully validated during development in relation to the development plan and therefore provides a faithful representation of the progress achieved on wafer manufacturing development services. Based on the level of progress, the Company records the proportion of the transaction price allocated to wafer manufacturing development services as revenue in the period. Manufacturing development plans are subject to change as data is analyzed and the plans are revised. Development of production plans are technical endeavors and adjustment to manufacturing development plans may impact the percentage of progress achieved and result in cumulative adjustments of revenue. The Company uses the input method of revenue recognition for larger customer programs that are focused on development of new applications or whose manufacturing processes will rely on new or emerging technologies. Wafer manufacturing development services for these customers is inherently more complex and requires more changes to manufacturing development plans over the period of service performance. Given the level of technical complexity and the expectation that there will be more changes to manufacturing plans as compared to other customer programs, the Company measures progress for larger customer programs by comparing costs incurred to date to estimated total cost required to complete wafer manufacturing development services. The Company records that proportion of the transaction price allocated to wafer manufacturing development services as revenue in the period. Costs include labor costs, manufacturing costs, material costs, and other direct costs incurred while performing the services. The estimation of total costs requires significant judgment and any adjustment to estimates of total cost may impact the proportion of progress achieved and could result in cumulative adjustments of revenue. When contracts are fixed price, the Company completes an evaluation of onerous ATS development contracts as of the reporting date for each separate contract, not for separate performance obligations in each contract. The Company recognizes losses on onerous ATS development contracts depending on whom the customer is based on the following: • U.S. Federal Government – The Company designates all ATS development contracts with the U.S. Federal Government as production-type service contracts; accordingly, it accrues liabilities for onerous contracts in the period it becomes evident the contract will result in a loss. • Customers other than the U.S. Federal Government – As the Company generally develops wafer manufacturing plans for its customers under ATS development contracts, ATS development contracts with non-U.S. Federal Government ATS development customers do not represent production-type service contracts; accordingly, the Company recognizes losses as the losses are incurred; it does not accrue liabilities for anticipated losses. Tools - The Company procures tools on behalf of certain customers. Tool revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the tool transfers to the customer. The point in time when control of a tool transfers to the customer is determined by customer contract terms. For some customers, control transfers when the tool is shipped or delivered to a SkyWater facility, while for other customers, control transfers when the tool is installed, qualified, and placed into service at a SkyWater facility. Wafer Services - Wafers are goods that are generally customer specific, highly customized and have no alternative use to the Company. Wafer Services customers contract with the Company to manufacture wafers based on their manufacturing design specifications. The terms of Wafer Services contracts dictate when control over wafers is transferred to the Company's customers. For contracts where orders are non-cancelable and the Company thereby maintain enforceable rights to customer performance, including rights to payment for partially completed wafers at reasonable margins, control over wafers transfers to its customers as wafers are manufactured. For these contracts, the Company recognizes revenue using an input method. This method measures the percentage of completion of wafers still in the manufacturing process by comparing total costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs to manufacture the wafers. The Company records that proportion of the transaction price as revenue in the period. The input method provides the best method of progress as it considers the steps and activities needed to manufacture a wafer and the costs associated with those steps. Costs include labor costs, manufacturing costs, material costs, and other direct costs required to manufacture customers’ wafers. The estimation of total costs requires significant judgment and any adjustment to estimates of cost to complete manufacturing may impact the proportion of completion achieved and could result in cumulative adjustments of revenue. When the Company’s contracts allow for orders to be canceled and it does not maintain enforceable rights to customer performance on canceled orders, including a right to payment for partially completed wafers at reasonable margins, control of wafers transfers to its customers at the point in time when wafer manufacturing is complete, and wafers have been shipped to the customer. In these instances, the Company recognizes revenue based on the agreed shipping terms with its customers. The Company has a long-standing relationship with a significant Wafer Services customer. The terms and conditions of this relationship have evolved over time and have dictated the manner in which the Company recognized revenue for the manufacture of their wafers. Prior to 2021, transfer of control of wafers, and revenue recognition occurred as completed wafers were shipped to the customer. In fiscal year 2021, this customer requested that it be able to purchase wafers and for those wafers to be shipped to them at a later date of their choosing. With the introduction of these bill and hold terms, transfer of control of the wafers, and revenue recognition occurred as wafers completed post-manufacturing electrical testing and became available for shipment to the customer. In March 2022, the Company signed a new contract with this customer pursuant to which orders became non-cancelable and thus there was a right to specific performance by the customer, including an enforceable right to payment for the cost of partially completed orders plus a reasonable profit margin. Given that the wafers produced for this customer are for customer-specific applications with no alternative use, the introduction of these contract terms demonstrated that control of the wafers transfers to the customer over time as the wafers are manufactured pursuant to ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“Topic 606”). Accordingly, the Company’s revenue recognition method for wafers produced for this customer transitioned from point in time to over-time using the Company's input method of revenue recognition. In March 2022, the Company recorded a one-time, cumulative adjustment to revenue of $8,290 for wafers still being manufactured at the time the new contract became enforceable. Between 2021 and March 2022, wafers manufactured while bill and hold provisions were in place, were separately identified as belonging to this customer, the wafers were denoted as ready for shipment to this customer in their then current form, and the Company did not have the ability to direct or sell the wafers to a different customer. Upon completion of post-manufacturing electrical testing, the Company had the right to invoice this customer. This customer also obtained legal title and the risks and rewards of ownership at this point. Research and Development Expense Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense include all costs incurred related to internal technology and process improvements and non-customer funded technology transfers. Licensed Technology The Company licenses technology and pays royalties based on the revenue of the related products sold by the Company. Royalties are expensed as incurred and included in cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. Equity-Based Compensation Compensation cost under the Company’s equity-based compensation plans are measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the granted award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Forfeitures reduce compensation expense for non-vested awards in the period the forfeitures occur. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to measure the grant-date-fair-value of awards. The Black-Scholes model requires certain assumptions to determine an award’s fair value, including expected term, risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, expected dividend yield, and fair value of underlying unit of equity to which the award relates. Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Interest and penalties are recognized within interest expense and income tax (benefit) expense, respectively, in the consolidated statement of operations. |

As a result of the transition, the Company recognized a one-time, cumulative adjustment to Wafer Services revenue of $8,290 for wafers still being manufactured at the time the new contract became enforceable. For the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023, $11,049 of Wafer Services revenues were recognized using the point in time method related to the period before the new contract was enforceable and $48,798 of Wafer Services revenues, inclusive of the one-time, cumulative adjustment, were recognized using the over-time method after the contract was enforceable.

Deferred Contract Costs The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer (i.e., deferred contract costs) when costs are considered recoverable and the duration of the contract is in excess of one year. Deferred costs are amortized as the related revenue is recognized. The Company recognized amortization of deferred contract costs totaling $847, $1,885, and $1,512 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, respectively. Contract Assets Contract assets represent SkyWater’s rights to payments for services it has transferred to its customers, but has not yet billed to its customers. Contract assets were $29,666 and $34,625 at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively, and are presented net of allowances for credit losses of $99 and $0, respectively. Balance at January 2, 2022 $ 16,303 Transfers to accounts receivable, net (15,980) Increase due to revenue recognized in advance of customer billings 34,302 Balance at January 1, 2023 34,625 Transfers to accounts receivable, net (33,868) Increase due to revenue recognized in advance of customer billings 29,008 Balance at December 31, 2023 $ 29,765 Contract Liabilities Contract liabilities represent payments from customers for which performance obligations have not yet been satisfied. In some instances, cash may be received, or payment may be contractually due by a customer before the related revenue is recognized. Prior Contract Related to Facility Expansion - During 2019, the Company signed a long-term contract with a significant customer that included funding for additional manufacturing capacity. Under the contract, the customer has a first right of refusal to future manufacturing capacity and product that is discounted over a period of approximately seven years, which represents a material right. Pursuant to the contract, the material right provides the customer a right to acquire a finite number of goods at a discount over the seven-year period, and such right is either exercised or expires over that term. The customer’s ability to exercise its option to acquire product at a discount began once the base contract element was completed in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 and continues for a period of approximately seven years. Consideration allocated to the material right is being recognized when the option is exercised or expires, which is expected to occur over the estimated period in which the customer can exercise its option and benefit from purchasing discounted product. BRIDG - In connection with the TED Agreement and CfN Lease as discussed in Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation – Center for NeoVation , the Company executed the LOA pursuant to which it agreed to provide engineering and test wafer services as requested by BRIDG based on its standard hourly and activity-based rates, which are accounted for as revenue over time as it is performed. In addition, the Company agreed to provide BRIDG access to the cleanrooms in the facilities that are subject to the TED Agreement and the CfN Lease for an access fee of approximately $15,000, less facility expenses incurred by BRIDG of approximately $1,650. The access fee is accounted for as a stand-ready obligation with revenue recognized ratably over 38 months, the life of BRIDG’s third-party contracts for which SkyWater is a subcontractor. The contract liabilities and other significant components of contract liabilities at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023 are as follows: December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Contract Deferred Revenue (1) Lease Deferred Revenue Total Contract Liabilities Contract Deferred Revenue (1) Lease Deferred Revenue Total Contract Liabilities Current $ 44,883 $ 4,668 $ 49,551 $ 23,519 $ 4,667 $ 28,186 Long-term 63,810 1,944 65,754 61,356 6,611 67,967 Total $ 108,693 $ 6,612 $ 115,305 $ 84,875 $ 11,278 $ 96,153 __________________ (1) Contract deferred revenue includes $59,323 and $68,917 at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively, related to material rights provided to a significant customer in exchange for funding additional manufacturing capacity. Of these amounts, $11,123 and $10,882 were classified as current in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively Significant changes in contract liabilities are as follows: Balance at January 2, 2022 $ 92,957 Revenue recognized included in the balance at the beginning of the year (18,601) Increase due to payments received, excluding amounts recognized as revenue during the year 10,519 Balance at January 1, 2023 84,875 Revenue recognized included in the balance at the beginning of the year (22,014) Increase due to payments received, excluding amounts recognized as revenue during the year 45,832 Balance at December 31, 2023 $ 108,693 Remaining Performance Obligations At December 31, 2023, the Company had $127,961 of remaining performance obligations that had not been fully satisfied on contracts with original expected durations of one year or more, which were primarily related to ATS contracts. The Company expects to recognize those revenues as it satisfies its performance obligations, which is not expected to exceed 6.5 years. The Company does not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less. Further, it does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it expects, at contract inception, that the period between when it transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less. Contract Estimates Pricing is established at, or prior to, the time of sale with customers, and the Company records sales at the agreed-upon selling price. The terms of a contract and historical business practices can, but generally do not, give rise to variable consideration. The Company estimates variable consideration at the most likely amount it will receive from customers. It includes estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized for such transaction will not occur, or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. In general, variable consideration in its contracts relates to the entire contract. As a result, the variable consideration is allocated proportionately to all performance obligations. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the Company’s anticipated performance and all information (historical, current, and forecasted) that is reasonably available at contract inception. There are no significant instances where variable consideration is constrained and not considered as part of the allocated contract consideration. Contract Modifications |

Prior to the customer obtaining ownership and control of the equipment, the Company recorded costs, including the acquisition cost of the equipment, incurred to date within prepaid expenses and other current assets. These deferred costs will be recognized as a cost of revenue when control of the equipment transfers to the customer.

In December 2021, SkyWater completed an assessment of the useful lives of its machinery and equipment and adjusted the estimated useful life from seven years to ten years to better reflect the estimated periods during which the assets will remain in service. This change in accounting estimate was effective beginning in December of 2021 on a prospective basis for all machinery and equipment acquired after March 1, 2017, the date in which SkyWater became an independent company as part of a divestiture from Cypress. The effect of this change in estimate resulted in a $1,775 decrease in depreciation expense for the year ended January 1, 2023. Intangible assets consist of (1) purchased software and license costs from the Company’s acquisition of the business in 2017; and (2) payments made under software and technology licensing arrangements with third parties. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the Company acquired third-party software and licensed technology of $1,871 and $3,462, respectively, which will be amortized over a weighted average estimated life of 7.5 years and 9.3 years, respectively. Intangible assets are summarized as follows: Intangible assets, net December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Software and licensed technology $ 12,148 $ 10,277 Less: accumulated amortization (6,476) (4,669) Total intangible assets, net $ 5,672 $ 5,608 For the years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, amortization of software and licenses was $1,807, $1,839, and $1,537, respectively.

Debt | Debt The components of debt outstanding at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023 are as follows: December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Short-term financing Revolver $ 21,794 $ 60,093 Tool financing advance payments 3,822 — Unamortized debt issuance costs (2,851) (4,277) Total short-term financing, net of unamortized debt issuance costs 22,765 55,816 Long-term debt VIE Financing 35,765 36,826 Tool financing loans 6,799 3,037 Unamortized debt issuance costs (2,490) (2,826) Total long-term debt, including current maturities 40,074 37,037 Less: Current portion of long-term debt (3,976) (1,855) Total long-term debt, excluding current portion $ 36,098 $ 35,182 Revolver On December 28, 2022, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Siena Lending Group LLC (“Siena”). The Loan Agreement provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $100 million with a scheduled maturity date of December 2025 (the “Revolver”). The Company incurred $4,277 of debt issuance costs, which are being amortized as additional interest expense over the life of the Revolver. In connection with the entry into the Loan Agreement, the Company repaid $43,495 in outstanding indebtedness under and terminated its lending agreement with Wells Fargo, and recognized a $1,101 write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. Borrowing under the Loan Agreement is limited by a borrowing base of specified advance rates applicable to billed accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment, subject to various conditions, limits, and any availability block as provided in the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement also provides for borrowing base sublimits applicable to each of unbilled accounts receivable and equipment. Under certain circumstances, Siena may, from time to time, establish and revise reserves against the borrowing base and/or the maximum revolving facility amount. Borrowings under the Loan Agreement bear interest at a rate that depends upon the type of borrowing, whether a term secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) loan or base rate loan, plus the applicable margin. The term SOFR loan rate is a forward-looking term rate based on SOFR for a tenor of one month on the applicable day, subject to a minimum of 2.5% per annum. The base rate is the greatest of the prime rate, the Federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and 7.0% per annum. The applicable margin is an applicable percentage based on the fixed charge coverage ratio that ranges from 5.25% to 6.25% per annum for term SOFR loans and ranges from 4.25% to 5.25% per annum for base rate loans. The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and financial and other covenants and conditions. Subject to certain cure rights, the Loan Agreement requires $10,000 in minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) calculated as of the last day of each calendar month commencing April 30, 2023 for the preceding twelve calendar months, prohibits unfunded capital expenditures in excess of $15,000 calculated as of the last day of each calendar month commencing April 30, 2023 for the preceding twelve calendar months, and requires a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, measured on a trailing twelve month basis, of not less than 1.00 to 1.00 if its liquidity is less than $15,000. In addition, the Loan Agreement places certain restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness (other than permitted indebtedness), to create liens or other encumbrances (other than liens relating to permitted indebtedness), to sell or otherwise dispose of assets, to merge or consolidate with other entities, and to make certain restricted payments, including payments of dividends to its stockholders. The Company is also obligated to pay to Siena, for its own benefit, certain customary fees. Due to a lockbox clause in the Loan Agreement, the outstanding loan balance is required to be serviced with working capital, and the debt is classified as short-term on the consolidated balance sheets. The outstanding balance of the Revolver was $21,794 as of December 31, 2023 at an interest rate of 10.6% due in December 2025. The remaining availability under the Revolver was $78,205 as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with applicable financial covenants of the Revolver. VIE Financing On September 30, 2020, Oxbow Realty, the Company’s consolidated VIE (see Note 13 – Related Party Transactions , and Note 16 – Variable Interest Entity ) entered into a loan agreement for $39,000 (the “VIE Financing”) to finance the acquisition of the building and land of the SkyWater Minnesota facility. The VIE Financing is repayable in equal monthly installments of $194 over 10 years, with the balance payable at the maturity date of October 6, 2030. The interest rate under the VIE Financing is fixed at 3.44%. The VIE Financing is guaranteed by Oxbow Industries, who is also the sole equity holder of Oxbow Realty. The VIE financing is not subject to financial covenants. The terms of the VIE Financing include provisions that grant the lender several protective rights when certain triggering events defined in the loan agreement occur, including events tied to SkyWater’s occupancy of the SkyWater Minnesota facility and SkyWater’s financial performance. The triggering events are not financial covenants and the occurrence of these triggering events do not represent events of default, nor do they result in the VIE Financing becoming callable, rather the protective rights become enforceable by the lender. Based on the level of SkyWater’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and restructuring or rent costs relative to gross rents paid from SkyWater to Oxbow Realty, as defined in the loan agreement, a trigger event exists and the lender’s protective rights are currently enforceable. Pursuant to its protective rights, the lender has retained in a restricted account amounts paid by SkyWater to Oxbow Realty pursuant to the Company’s related party lease agreement that are in excess of the scheduled debt payments paid by Oxbow Realty to the lender. The funds held in the restricted accounts become remittable back to Oxbow Realty once the trigger event is cured. As of December 31, 2023, Oxbow Realty maintained a $7,936 receivable for the cumulative amount of excess payments held by the lender in the restricted account. The VIE Financing is secured by a security interest in the land and building which was the subject of the sale-leaseback transaction (see Note 13 – Related Party Transactions – Sale-Leaseback Transaction ). The Company’s VIE incurred third-party transaction costs of $65, which are recognized as debt issuance costs and are amortizing as additional interest expense over the life of the VIE Financing. The Company incurred additional third-party transaction costs of $3,487, which are recognized as debt issuance costs and are being amortized as additional interest expense over the life of the VIE Financing. Tool Financing Loans The Company, from time to time, enters into financing arrangements with lenders to finance the purchase of manufacturing tools and other equipment. Between the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022 and the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company entered into arrangements to sell manufacturing tools and other equipment to financing lenders. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, these arrangements totaled $3,100 and for fiscal year 2023, these arrangements totaled $5,190. These agreements include bargain purchase options at the end of the lease terms, which the Company intends to exercise. These transactions represent failed sale leasebacks with the associated equipment recorded in property and equipment, net and the proceeds received, net of scheduled repayments of the financings, recorded as debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, advance payments of $3,822 have been made to a tool vendor on the Company’s behalf by a lender. When the tool is placed into service, the Company anticipates a financing agreement will be executed to repay the lender the outstanding financial liability over a period of time. The advance payments are recorded as short-term financing on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Paycheck Protection Program On April 18, 2020, the Company received proceeds of $6,453 pursuant to a loan from TCF Bank under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). On June 10, 2021, the PPP loan was fully forgiven and $6,453 was recorded as other income in the consolidated statements of operations. Maturities The Revolver is due in December 2025. The VIE Financing is repayable in equal monthly installments of $194 over 10 years, with the balance payable at the maturity date of October 6, 2030. Future principal payments as of December 31, 2023 of the Company’s long-term debt are as follows: 2024 $ 3,557 2025 3,879 2026 2,771 2027 1,219 2028 1,259 Thereafter 29,879 Total $ 42,564 Liquidity and Cash Requirements Historically, the Company has addressed its liquidity needs (including funds required to make scheduled principal and interest payments, refinance debt and fund working capital, and planned capital expenditures) with operating cash flows, borrowings under credit facilities, and proceeds from the term loans. The Company’s ability to execute its operating strategy is dependent on its ability to continue to access capital through the Revolver and other sources of financing and if it were unable to obtain financing on reasonable terms, this may impact its ability to execute its operating strategy. |

The tax rate in any quarter can be affected positively or negatively by adjustments that are required to be reported in the specific quarter of resolution. The significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected in the following table: December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Deferred tax assets: Deferred compensation and accrued vacation $ 187 $ 493 Deferred revenue 17,295 21,969 Financing lease 9,205 8,621 Net operating loss and credit carryforwards 11,703 11,970 Inventory 5,277 9,414 Equity-based compensation 1,317 1,539 Research and development expense 10,992 2,068 Interest expense limitation 1,973 1,846 Lease liability 2,054 2,213 Other 2,324 645 Total deferred tax assets 62,327 60,778 Deferred tax liabilities: Property and equipment (36,180) (41,652) Prepaids and other (715) (510) Total deferred tax liabilities (36,895) (42,162) Net deferred tax asset 25,432 18,616 Valuation allowance (26,111) (19,855) Net deferred tax liability after valuation allowance $ (679) $ (1,239) Management regularly evaluates the future realization of deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance, if considered necessary, based on such evaluation. As part of the evaluation, management has evaluated taxable income in carryback years, future reversals of taxable temporary differences, feasible tax planning strategies, and future expectations of income. Based upon this analysis, a valuation allowance of $26,111 and $19,855 was recorded as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively, to reduce the net deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The Company had $10,257 and $11,970 of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. Federal net operating loss carryforwards do not expire. Federal net operating loss carryforwards are subject to limitation of 80% of taxable income in any given tax year beginning after December 31, 2020. The Company's state net operating loss carryforwards will expire over various periods through 2043 and most are not subject to the aforementioned limitation. Beginning in 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminated the option to deduct experimentation expenditures immediately in the year incurred and requires taxpayers to amortize such expenditures over five years for tax purposes if incurred in the United States. This provision resulted in a new deferred tax asset of $2,068 as of January 1, 2023. However, there was no net impact to the consolidated balance sheets as the valuation allowance was increased to fully offset this new deferred tax asset. There was no impact to the consolidated statements of operations for this provision. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was signed into U.S. law. The IRA includes various tax provisions, including a 1% excise tax on certain stock repurchases made by publicly traded U.S. corporations and a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax that applies to certain corporations with adjusted financial statement income in excess of $1.0 billion. The Company does not expect any material impacts from these provisions. The Company is not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service or in any state jurisdictions, but may be subject to examination in these jurisdictions in the future.

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
Shareholders' Equity | Shareholders’ Equity Classes of Equity Units Until the corporate conversion on April 14, 2021, the Company had three classes of limited liability interests, designated as Class A preferred units, Class B preferred units, and common units (collectively, the “Unit” or “Units”). There were 2,000,000 Class A preferred units authorized specifically for issuance upon exercise of warrants, of which none were issued and outstanding at January 3, 2021. There were 18,000,000 Class B preferred units authorized, of which 18,000,000 were issued and outstanding at January 3, 2021. There were 5,000,000 common units authorized, of which 3,057,344 were issued and 2,107,452 were outstanding as of January 3, 2021. Class A preferred units and common units were non-voting classes, and Class B preferred units are a voting class. Conversion On April 14, 2021, the Company completed a corporate conversion. Pursuant to the certificate of incorporation effected in connection with the corporate conversion, its authorized capital stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of voting common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 80,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of December 31, 2023, giving effect to the corporate conversion and the Company's initial public offering (“IPO”), 47,028,159 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding. No shares of its preferred stock were outstanding. On April 21, 2021, the Company's common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol “SKYT.” Upon the corporate conversion, all Units were converted into an aggregate of 31,055,743 shares of its common stock. Each Class B preferred unit and common unit was converted into a number of shares of common stock determined by dividing (1) the amount that would have been distributed in respect of each such Unit in accordance with the operating agreement of CMI Acquisition, LLC (“CMI”), the predecessor Company, if all assets of CMI had been sold for a cash amount equal to the pre-offering value of CMI, as such value is determined by CMI’s board of managers based on the fair value of each share of common stock (net of any underwriting discounts, fees and expenses), by (2) such per share fair value. The amounts that would have been distributed for this purpose in respect of Class B preferred units and common units were determined by reference to the terms of CMI’s operating agreement, with different values applicable to each series of Units. Before any distributions were made on common units, distributions were made on each Class B preferred unit in an amount equal to the sum of an 8% “preferred return” on the deemed original equity value of each such Class B preferred unit (accrued daily since the date of issuance of each such Class B preferred unit) plus the amount of such original equity value. Only after those distributions were made, the common units, together with the Class B preferred units, shared in the remainder of the distribution on a pro rata basis. For purposes of the corporate conversion, pre-offering “per share fair value” was determined taking into account an assumed initial public offering price of common stock. Accordingly, the outstanding Units were converted as follows: • Holders of Class B preferred units received an aggregate of 27,995,400 shares of common stock; and • Holders of common units received an aggregate of shares 3,060,343 of common stock. Initial Public Offering On April 23, 2021, the Company completed its IPO and issued 8,004,000 shares of common stock, including the underwriter’s exercise of their right to purchase additional shares, at an initial offering price to the public of $14.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $100,162 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $7,844 and offering costs of approximately $4,050. Open Market Sale Agreement On September 2, 2022, the Company entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement with Jefferies LLC with respect to an at the market offering program. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company may, from time to time, offer and sell up to $100,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, the Company sold 2,081,167 shares at an average sale price of $10.10 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $21,029 before deducting sales commissions and fees of approximately $631. During the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023, the Company sold 435,419 shares at an average sale price of $9.28 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $4,040 before deducting sales commission and fees of approximately $581. The Company used the net proceeds to pay down its Revolver and fund its operations. As of December 31, 2023, $74,930 in shares was available for issuance under the Open Market Sale Agreement. Common Stock Offering On November 17, 2022, the Company completed a public offering (the “Offering”) and issued 1,916,667 shares of common stock, including the underwriter’s exercise of its right to purchase additional shares, at a price per share of $9.00 to the public, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company received net proceeds of $16,100 from the Offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. The net proceeds from the Offering were used primarily for general corporate purposes, which included funding of operations, repayment of indebtedness, additions to working capital, and capital expenditures. |

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Equity-Based Compensation | Equity-Based Compensation 2021 Equity Incentive Plan In connection with its IPO, the Company adopted the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”). The 2021 Equity Plan became effective upon the consummation of the IPO. On June 7, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan. Under the 2021 Equity Plan, as amended, 9,522,000 shares of common stock are available for issuance to eligible individuals in the form of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, unrestricted stock, dividend equivalent rights, other equity-based awards and cash bonus awards. Stock Options Stock options generally vest ratable on each of the first, second, third, and fourth anniversaries of the grant date and expire in ten years from the date of grant, or vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date and expire 15 months after the grant date. Equity-based compensation expense related to stock option awards was $2,157, $1,647, and $1,348, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, respectively. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur and the stock compensation expense on forfeited awards that have not vested is reversed. The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses assumptions noted in the following table. The expected life of an option represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding and is based on the SEC Simplified Method (midpoint of average vesting time and contractual term). Expected volatility is based on an average of the historical, daily volatility of a peer group of similar companies blended with SkyWater’s historic daily volatility over a period consistent with the expected life assumption ending on the grant date. The risk-free interest rates used in the option valuation model was based on yields available on the grant dates for U.S. Treasury Strips with a maturity consistent with the expected life assumption. The Company assumed no dividend yield in the valuation of the options granted as it has never declared or paid dividends on its common stock and has no current plans to introduce dividends as it intends to retain earnings for use in operations. Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 January 2, 2022 Expected life 6.25 years 6.25 years 1.13 - 6.25 years Expected volatility 75.1% - 76.5% 73.0% 46.0% Risk-free interest rate 3.47% - 4.66% 2.1% 0.09% - 1.38% The following table summarizes the stock option activity during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023: Number of Stock Options Weighted Average Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Life Aggregate Intrinsic Value Balance outstanding as of January 1, 2023 1,110 $ 12.92 Granted 890 9.72 Exercised — — Forfeited or canceled (363) 11.24 Balance outstanding as of December 31, 2023 1,637 11.32 8.5 years $ 619 Balance vested and exercisable as of December 31, 2023 254 $ 12.97 7.7 years $ — The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted in the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022 was $6.65, $5.50, and $5.38 respectively. As of December 31, 2023, total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options was $5,961 and is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of approximately 2.8 years. Restricted Common Stock Units Restricted common stock units are granted to eligible employees and generally vest ratably on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date. Restricted common stock units granted to directors vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date. The common stock relating to restricted common stock units is issued upon vesting. The grantee has no rights as a common stockholder until the common stock related to the restricted common stock units have been issued. Equity-based compensation expense related to restricted common stock unit awards was $3,560, $5,692, and $10,000, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, respectively. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur and the stock compensation expense on forfeited awards that have not vested are reversed. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted common stock units was $4,503 as of December 31, 2023, and is expected to be recognized over the weighted average vesting period of approximately 1.4 years. The estimated fair value of restricted common stock units is based on the grant date closing price of SkyWater’s common stock for time-based vesting awards. The total fair value of restricted stock units vested during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022 was $5,001, $6,749, and $13,960 respectively.

On June 7, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2021 ESPP. A maximum of 1,464,000 shares of its common stock has been reserved for issuance under the 2021 ESPP, as amended. Under the 2021 ESPP, eligible employees may purchase common stock through payroll deductions at a discount not to exceed 15% of the lower of the fair market values of SkyWater’s common stock as of the beginning or end of each offering period, which may range from six The fair value of the 2021 ESPP is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses assumptions noted in the following table.

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Benefit Plans | Benefit Plans 401(k) Plan The Company established a defined contribution plan which qualifies under Section 401(k) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and covers employees who meet certain age and service requirements. Employee contributions are limited to the maximum amount allowed by the Code. The Company may make discretionary matching contributions or profit-sharing contributions, which vest over a two-year period. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, the Company made contributions of $1,879, $1,531, and $1,751, respectively. Long-Term Incentive Plan The Company adopted a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) in 2018 for certain key employees. Management determined the key employees who were eligible to participate in the program and the amounts to be awarded to each such employee. Employees vested in the deferred compensation 50 percent after three years of service and 100 percent after five years of service. Employees are 100 percent vested in the event of death, disability, retirement, or change in control. Until January 2, 2021, the amounts awarded were adjusted annually by the percentage change in the appraised value of the Company. Effective January 3, 2021, the outstanding awards continued to vest but were no longer adjusted for the annual investment return. Effective April 2021, the Board of Directors terminated the LTIP. Under Section 409(A) of the Code, payouts could not occur within twelve months from the date of termination, but were required to be completed within 24 months of plan termination. Beginning in June 2022, the plan asset liquidation began with participants receiving a quarter of their account value in shares of the Company’s common stock in four equal payments beginning in June 2022, and ending in March 2023. Following the March 2023 distribution, the assets of the plan are fully distributed to participants. The value of the LTIP award was recognized as expense over the requisite service period in the consolidated statements of operations. Total compensation expense related to the LTIP was $390 and $855 for the fiscal years ended January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, respectively. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To determine fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy categorized into three levels based on inputs used. Generally, the three levels are as follows: • Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; • Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 inputs were used in the valuation of the Company's contingent consideration obligation. The change in level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis is summarized as follows: Contingent Balance at January 2, 2022 $ 816 Payments (816) Change in fair value — Balance at January 1, 2023 — Payments Change in fair value — Balance at December 31, 2023 $ — The change in fair value is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration liability was determined using forecasted receipts of projected future revenues of Advanced Technology Services. The royalty was paid out quarterly through fiscal year 2022. The forecasted future cash flows were discounted reflecting the risk in estimating future revenues. There are no future cash payments to be made as this liability was paid in full during fiscal year 2022. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other financial working capital items approximate fair values at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023 due to the short maturity of these items. The carrying amount of the borrowing under the Revolver approximates its fair value due to the frequency of the floating interest rate resets on the debt. The fair value of the Revolver was determined based on inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company's non-financial assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets are recorded at fair value upon acquisition and are remeasured at fair value only if an impairment charge is recognized. As of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Self-Insurance The Company maintains a self-insurance program for its employees’ health care costs. It is liable for losses on claims up to $200 per individual and $9,138 in total for all individuals as of December 31, 2023. The Company maintains third-party insurance coverage for any losses in excess of such amounts. Self-insurance costs are accrued based on claims reported as of the balance sheet date, as well as an estimated liability for claims incurred but not reported. The accrued liability for self-insurance costs of $568 and $736 as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively, was recorded in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. Litigation From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings and subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company currently believes that the resolution of these ordinary-course matters will not have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results, financial condition or cash flows. Even if any particular litigation is resolved in a manner that is favorable to its interests, such litigation can have a negative impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources from its business, and other factors. Capital Expenditures The Company has various contracts outstanding with third parties which primarily relate to semiconductor tool purchases and installation. The Company has approximately $7,910 and $4,836 of contractual commitments outstanding expected to be paid in the next twelve months using cash on hand and operating cash flows as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. Capital Lease Commitments The Company leases certain manufacturing equipment and an office space in Kissimmee, Florida under non-cancelable capital leases and includes these assets in property and equipment in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The capitalized cost of leased assets was $9,356 and $9,740 at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. Center for NeoVation On January 25, 2021, the Company entered into a technology and economic development agreement (the “TED Agreement”), and a lease agreement (the “CfN Lease”) with the government of Osceola County, Florida (“Osceola”) and ICAMR, Inc., a Florida non-profit corporation (also known as “BRIDG”), to lease and operate the Center for NeoVation (the “CfN”), a semiconductor research and development and manufacturing facility in Florida. Under the CfN Lease, the Company agrees to bring the plant to full production capacity within five years, and then to operate the plant at full capacity for an additional 15 years. At the end of the lease, SkyWater will take ownership of the facility. The Company is responsible for taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance, operation of the assets, and making capital investments in the facility to bring the facility to its full production capacity. Investments and costs required to bring the facility to its full capacity will be substantial. The Company may terminate the TED Agreement and CfN Lease with 18 months’ notice. In the event the Company terminates the agreements, it is required to continue to operate the CfN until the earlier of either a replacement operator is found, or the 18-months’ notice period expires, and it may be required to make a payment of up to $15,000 to Osceola. Build Back Better Grant In the third quarter of 2022, the U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration granted funds to Osceola and BRIDG for continued development of Central Florida’s Semiconductor Cluster for Broad-Based Prosperity through the Build Back Better Regional Challenge, a portion of which is committed to the expansion of the CfN and purchase, installation, and qualification of equipment in the CfN. In February 2023, SkyWater committed to a 20% matching share contribution of the project costs to Osceola totaling approximately $9,100. SkyWater’s commitment to fund this matching contribution is limited to $1,000 in any single calendar quarter. As of December 31, 2023, SkyWater has not been obligated to pay any portion of the matching contribution to which it has committed. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | Leases The Company leases certain property and equipment, such as its Minnesota facility, its office location in Florida, and certain production equipment under finance leases. It also leases its manufacturing location in Florida and warehouse space in Minnesota under operating leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For leases that do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Some of the leases include options to extend or cancel the lease term, which is only included in the lease liability and right-of-use assets calculation when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise that option at the inception of the lease. As of December 31, 2023, the Company did not intend to exercise its lease extension or cancellation options. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components and have elected to account for these as a single lease component only for equipment leases. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The components of lease expense are as follows: Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Operating lease cost $ 51 $ 52 Finance lease cost Amortization of assets 1,204 1,834 Interest on lease liabilities 848 763 Total net lease cost $ 2,103 $ 2,649 Short-term lease cost amounted to $23 and $279 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively.

Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For leases that do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Some of the leases include options to extend or cancel the lease term, which is only included in the lease liability and right-of-use assets calculation when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise that option at the inception of the lease. As of December 31, 2023, the Company did not intend to exercise its lease extension or cancellation options. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components and have elected to account for these as a single lease component only for equipment leases. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The components of lease expense are as follows: Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Operating lease cost $ 51 $ 52 Finance lease cost Amortization of assets 1,204 1,834 Interest on lease liabilities 848 763 Total net lease cost $ 2,103 $ 2,649 Short-term lease cost amounted to $23 and $279 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. Supplemental cash flow information related to leases are as follows: Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities Operating cash flows used for operating leases $ 49 $ 49 Operating cash flows used for finance leases 848 757 Financing cash flows used for finance leases 935 1,603 Right of use assets obtained in exchange for lease liabilities Operating leases — 184 Finance leases 811 9,126 The weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rates related to leases are as follows: December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Weighted average remaining lease term Operating leases 2.0 years 3.0 years Finance leases 12.5 years 13.7 years Weighted average discount rate Operating leases 4.8% 4.8% Finance leases 8.7% 8.6% Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases is as follows: Leases Classification December 31, 2023 January 1, 2023 Assets Operating lease right-of-use assets Other assets $ 96 $ 141 Finance lease right-of-use assets Property and equipment, net 9,356 9,740 Total lease right-of-use assets 9,452 9,881 Operating lease liabilities Current portion of operating lease liabilities Accrued expenses 48 44 Operating lease liabilities, excluding current portion Other long-term liabilities 52 100 Total operating lease liabilities 100 144 Finance lease liabilities Current portion of finance lease liabilities Accrued expenses 645 786 Finance lease liabilities, excluding current portion Other long-term liabilities 9,275 9,257 Total finance lease liabilities 9,920 10,043 Total lease liabilities $ 10,020 $ 10,187 Future maturities of lease liabilities as of December 31, 2023 are as follows: Fiscal Year Operating Leases Finance Leases Total 2024 $ 52 $ 1,432 $ 1,484 2025 53 1,353 1,406 2026 — 1,354 1,354 2027 — 1,341 1,341 2028 — 1,135 1,135 Thereafter — 9,700 9,700 Total lease payments 105 16,315 16,420 Less imputed interest (5) (6,395) (6,400) Total lease liabilities $ 100 $ 9,920 $ 10,020 SkyWater as the Lessor In March 2020, SkyWater executed a contract with a customer that includes the right to use of a portion of the Company’s existing facility to produce wafers using the customer’s equipment. The contractual amount that relates to revenue from an operating lease was $21,000, and is being recognized over the estimated lease term of 4.5 years. The total amount was prepaid by the customer and recorded as deferred revenue. See Note 4 – Revenue |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entity | Variable Interest Entity Oxbow Realty was established for the purpose of holding real estate and facilitating real estate transactions. This included facilitating the purchase of the land and building of SkyWater’s Minnesota facility with proceeds from a bank loan (See Note 6 – Debt ) and managing the leaseback of the land and building to SkyWater (see Note 13 – Related Party Transactions ). Management determined that Oxbow Realty meets the definition of a VIE under ASC Topic 810, “ Consolidations” (“Topic 810”) , because it lacks sufficient equity to finance its activities. Furthermore, the Company is the primary beneficiary of Oxbow Realty as it has the power to direct operating and maintenance decisions of the Minnesota facility during the lease term, which would most significantly affect Oxbow Realty’s economic performance. As the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidates the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Oxbow Realty pursuant to Topic 810, eliminating any transactions between the Company and Oxbow Realty, and recording a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in Oxbow Realty not attributable to the Company because the owners of SkyWater’s common stock do not legally have rights or obligations to the profits or losses of Oxbow Realty. In addition, the assets of Oxbow Realty can only be used to settle its liabilities, and the creditors of Oxbow Realty do not have recourse to the general credit of SkyWater. The following table shows the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities of Oxbow Realty that are consolidated by the Company as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023. The assets and liabilities are presented prior to consolidation, and thus do not reflect the elimination of intercompany balances.

(the “Parent”) owns 100% of SkyWater Technology Foundry, SkyWater Federal, and SkyWater Florida, its primary operating subsidiaries. The Parent was formed from the conversion of CMI Acquisition, LLC into a Delaware corporation on April 14, 2021 and became the ultimate parent of the subsidiaries previously owned by CMI Acquisition, LLC. The Parent is a holding company with no material operations of its own and conducts substantially all of its activities through its subsidiaries. No investment or non-controlling interest related to Oxbow Realty is shown in the parent company schedule, as subsidiaries and VIE’s are not consolidated, and the Parent does not have rights or obligations to these amounts. The Parent has no cash and, as a result, all expenses and obligations of the Parent are allocated to and paid by its subsidiaries. The Parent and SkyWater Technology Foundry are the borrowers under the Revolver discussed in Note 6 – Debt . SkyWater Technology Foundry is limited in its ability to declare dividends or make any payment on equity to, directly or indirectly, fund a dividend or other distribution to the Parent in connection with those borrowings. Dividends, redemptions, and other payments on equity (restricted payments) are limited to (1) restricted payments to the loan parties; and (2) declaring and making dividend payments or other distributions payable solely in capital stock. Due to the aforementioned restrictions, substantially all of the net assets of the Parent’s subsidiaries are restricted. These condensed financial statements have been presented on a “parent-only” basis. Under a parent-only presentation, the investment in subsidiaries is presented under the equity method of accounting. A condensed statement of cash flows was not presented because the Parent has no cash, and, therefore, no material operating, investing, or financing cash flow activities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. As a result, these parent-only statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to these consolidated financial statements. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest, SkyWater Technology Foundry, Inc. (“SkyWater Technology Foundry”), SkyWater Federal, LLC (“SkyWater Federal”), SkyWater Florida, Inc. (“SkyWater Florida”), and Oxbow Realty Partners, LLC (“Oxbow Realty”), a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which SkyWater is the primary beneficiary and an affiliate of the Company’s principal stockholder. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Fiscal Period | The consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ (deficit) equity and cash flows are for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023 and January 2, 2022. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to the end of the calendar year. The fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022 each contained 52 weeks. |
Liquidity and Cash Requirements | Liquidity and Cash Requirements The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business and do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classifications of recorded assets and liabilities as a result of uncertainties. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods then ended. Management evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and bases its estimates on experience, current and expected future conditions, third-party evaluations, and various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Net Loss Per Share | Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting periods, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the reporting periods determined using the treasury-stock method. Because the Company reported a net loss attributable to SkyWater Technology, Inc. for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, the number of shares used to calculate diluted net loss per common share is the same as the number of shares used to calculate basic net loss per common share because the potentially dilutive shares would have been anti-dilutive if included in the calculation. At December 31, 2023, January 1, 2023, and January 2, 2022, there were restricted stock units and stock options totaling 2,294,000, 2,209,000 and 2,731,000, respectively, excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. |
Center for NeoVation | Center for NeoVation Through SkyWater’s subsidiary, SkyWater Florida, the Company entered into several agreements on January 25, 2021 with the government of Osceola County, Florida (“Osceola”) and ICAMR, Inc., a Florida non-profit corporation, doing business as BRIDG (“BRIDG”), to operate the Center for NeoVation (“CfN”), a semiconductor research and development and manufacturing facility. These agreements included a technology and economic development agreement (the “TED Agreement”), a lease agreement (the “CfN Lease”) and a semiconductor line operation agreement (the “LOA”). Under the TED Agreement and the CfN Lease, SkyWater agreed to operate the CfN, including certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and an advanced water treatment facility currently owned by Osceola for a period of at least 23 years for a lease payment of $1.00 per year. During the period of the CfN Lease, the Company is responsible for taxes, utilities, insurance and maintenance on the facility, and for operation of the facility. The Company may terminate the TED Agreement and CfN Lease with 18 months’ notice. In the event the Company terminates the agreements, it would be required to continue to operate the center until it finds a replacement operator or the 18 months expire and may be required to make a payment of up to $15,000 to Osceola. SkyWater accounts for the CfN Lease as a lease. Given the nominal minimum lease payments required under the lease, the impact to the consolidated balance sheets was insignificant. As the Company performs under the agreements, any expenses it incurs and any revenue it is able to generate from the operations of CfN will be included in the consolidated statements of operations as they are incurred or earned. If the Company is able to reach and maintain full capacity in the CfN for a minimum period of 20 years, Osceola will convey the land, buildings and equipment to SkyWater for no consideration at the end of the CfN Lease. At such time that the Company believes the conveyance of the land, buildings, and equipment is reasonably assured, it will record those assets on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value and record a corresponding deferred gain. The Company will subsequently depreciate the assets over their remaining economic life and recognize an equivalent amount of income from the amortization of the deferred gain. |
Reportable Segment and Geographic Information | Reportable Segment and Geographic Information Reportable segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. SkyWater operates and manages its business as one reportable segment. See Note 4 – Revenue, for disclosure of revenue by country. All of the Company's long-lived assets are located in the United States. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards And Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases,” later codified in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, “Leases” (“Topic 842”). Topic 842 was effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. As an emerging growth company, SkyWater adopted Topic 842 on January 3, 2022 for the year ending January 1, 2023. The guidance in Topic 842 supersedes the guidance in ASC Topic 840, “Leases.” Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize lease right of use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheets. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statements of operations. The Company adopted Topic 842, and all related amendments using the “Comparatives Under 840 Option” transition approach. Under this transition approach, the Company did not restate prior periods, nor restate prior lease disclosures. The Company also elected certain practical expedients allowed by Topic 842 which, among other things, allowed it to carry forward historical lease classification conclusions previously made under Topic 840 and to exclude from the scope of its application of Topic 842 lease arrangements with terms less than twelve months. The most significant impact of adopting Topic 842 was the recognition of lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. The adoption of Topic 842 resulted in the recognition of an initial right-of-use asset lease liability In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” later codified in Topic 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” (“Topic 326”). Topic 326 replaces the preexisting U.S. GAAP guidance that only required the recognition of credit losses when losses were probable and estimable. Topic 326 now requires recognition of credit losses based on SkyWater’s expectation of losses to be incurred while the financial instrument is held. Topic 326 was effective for most public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. As an emerging growth company, SkyWater adopted Topic 326 on January 2, 2023 using the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption, the Company increased its accumulated deficit by $375 for the effects of increasing its allowance for credit losses as of January 2, 2023. All other impacts to SkyWater’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows were immaterial. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting.” The amendments in this update improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. SkyWater will reflect the amended disclosure requirements of this update in its annual consolidated financial statements for its fiscal year ending December 29, 2024 and for the interim periods in its fiscal year ending December 28, 2025. Given that the Company reports as a single reportable segment, the impacts of adopting the provisions of this update will not be significant. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents All highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in its deposit accounts. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for expected credit losses based on the Company’s expectation of losses to be incurred. Management determines the need for an allowance for credit losses through the review of its historical write-offs and recoveries and assessment of current and future economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The Company recorded an allowance for credit losses of $180 and $1,638 at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, respectively. |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories consist of wafer raw materials, work in process, and supplies and spare parts. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Raw materials are stated at weighted-average cost, while work in process inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. When net realizable value (which requires projecting future average selling prices, sales volumes, and costs to complete products in work in process inventories) is below cost, the Company records a charge to cost of goods sold to write down inventories to their estimated net realizable values in advance of when inventories are actually sold. Supplies and spare parts are measured at cost and expensed when utilized. Supplies and spare parts are classified as inventory if expected use is within one year. Supplies and spare parts not expected to be used within one year are classified as other assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As discussed in Note 15 – Inventory Write Down , the write-down of inventory which SkyWater is contracted to manufacture for a specific customer is recorded separately in its consolidated statements of operations within cost of revenue. All other write-downs of inventory are recorded within the caption Cost of revenue. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment is recorded at cost when acquired. The costs of additions and improvements are capitalized. The cost of repairs and maintenance are expensed in the period incurred. When equipment is sold or retired, the related net carrying amount of the equipment is derecognized and a gain or loss is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which are generally seven |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist of (1) purchased software and license costs from the Company’s acquisition of the business in 2017; and (2) payments made under software and technology licensing arrangements with third-parties. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the Company acquired third-party software and licensed technology of $1,871 and $3,462, respectively, which will be amortized over a weighted average estimated life of 7.5 years and 9.3 years, respectively. |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs | Deferred Debt Issuance Costs Deferred debt issuance costs consist of costs incurred in relation to obtaining the Company’s financing and revolving credit facility. These costs are amortized over the life of the related agreements using the effective interest method for its financing and the straight-line method for its revolving credit facilities. The amortization of these costs is included in interest expense. The unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount are presented as a reduction of the outstanding borrowings in the consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and debt discount at the time of an extinguishment of debt are charged to interest expense, as are third-party costs of a modification. |
Contingent Consideration | Contingent Consideration In connection with SkyWater’s acquisition of the business from Cypress Semiconductor Corporation (“Cypress”), the purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, at fair value, and did not result in any goodwill being recorded. The Company recorded a contingent consideration liability of $24,900 for the future estimated earn-out/royalties owed on Advanced Technology Services revenues, at fair value as of the acquisition date in March 2017. For each reporting period thereafter, the Company revalued future estimated earn-out payments and recorded the changes in fair value of the liability in the consolidated statements of operations. The contingent consideration represented a declining percentage of revenue generated by the sale of Advanced Technology Services through 2022, and were paid quarterly. Contingent consideration of $816 and $7,374 was paid during the fiscal years ended January 1, 2023 and January 2, 2022, respectively. During the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022, the Company recorded a contingent consideration benefit of $2,710 to reflect the change in fair value of the contingent consideration obligation in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. There were no royalty expenses recorded in the years ended December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, as the last remaining amounts owed to Cypress related to contingent consideration were paid in the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022. |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities The Company evaluates whether an entity is a VIE based on the sufficiency of the entity’s equity at risk and by determining whether the equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. If an entity is a VIE, SkyWater determines if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE by assessing whether it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE as well as the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that may be significant to the VIE. These determinations are both qualitative and quantitative, and they require management to make judgments and assumptions about the VIE’s forecasted financial performance and the volatility inherent in those forecasted results. The Company regularly reviews all existing entities for events that may result in an entity becoming a VIE, or the Company becoming the primary beneficiary of an existing VIE. See Note 16 – Variable Interest Entity . Non-controlling interests reported in shareholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets represent the ownership interests in the consolidated VIE held by entities or persons other than SkyWater. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the Company’s customers, in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To recognize revenue, the Company applies the following five step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the customer contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenues when or as it satisfies a performance obligation. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from all parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of transaction price is reasonably assured. At contract inception, the Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay amounts entitled to the Company when due based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience. See below and Note 4 – Revenue , for further discussion of SkyWater’s revenue characteristics. The Company primarily derives its revenue from the performance of Advanced Technology Services (“ATS”) process development services and the manufacture and delivery of wafers via Wafer Services. ATS development - ATS development contracts are focused on the performance of process development services, the output of which is a manufacturing plan that defines the steps and activities needed to produce customer wafers at high volumes and with high yields. Wafer manufacturing development services do not include services to manufacture customer wafers at scale. ATS development contracts are complex and wafer manufacturing development services are often either the lone performance obligation in an ATS development contract, or the performance obligation to which the majority of the contract value is allocated. The Company has both fixed price and time-and-materials contracts with its ATS development customers. The Company’s ATS development customers receive the benefits of these services, and revenue from performance of these services are recognized over time as they are performed. Revenue on fixed price contracts is recognized using either an output or input method based upon the method that best measures the value of the services performed for the Company’s customers. Whether an input or output method is selected requires judgment and is subject to thorough analysis of the terms of each fixed price contract. The Company consistently uses either its output method or input method for similar performance obligations and in similar circumstances. The Company’s output method of revenue recognition evaluates the steps and activities needed to complete manufacturing development services and relies on surveys of steps and activities completed and partially completed as of the reporting date in relation to the current manufacturing development plans to measure the level of progress on the service. There are many steps and activities included in the Company’s manufacturing development plans. The time and effort to complete the steps and activities are very similar, which demonstrates a level of uniformity. This uniformity accurately conveys the steps and activities successfully validated during development in relation to the development plan and therefore provides a faithful representation of the progress achieved on wafer manufacturing development services. Based on the level of progress, the Company records the proportion of the transaction price allocated to wafer manufacturing development services as revenue in the period. Manufacturing development plans are subject to change as data is analyzed and the plans are revised. Development of production plans are technical endeavors and adjustment to manufacturing development plans may impact the percentage of progress achieved and result in cumulative adjustments of revenue. The Company uses the input method of revenue recognition for larger customer programs that are focused on development of new applications or whose manufacturing processes will rely on new or emerging technologies. Wafer manufacturing development services for these customers is inherently more complex and requires more changes to manufacturing development plans over the period of service performance. Given the level of technical complexity and the expectation that there will be more changes to manufacturing plans as compared to other customer programs, the Company measures progress for larger customer programs by comparing costs incurred to date to estimated total cost required to complete wafer manufacturing development services. The Company records that proportion of the transaction price allocated to wafer manufacturing development services as revenue in the period. Costs include labor costs, manufacturing costs, material costs, and other direct costs incurred while performing the services. The estimation of total costs requires significant judgment and any adjustment to estimates of total cost may impact the proportion of progress achieved and could result in cumulative adjustments of revenue. When contracts are fixed price, the Company completes an evaluation of onerous ATS development contracts as of the reporting date for each separate contract, not for separate performance obligations in each contract. The Company recognizes losses on onerous ATS development contracts depending on whom the customer is based on the following: • U.S. Federal Government – The Company designates all ATS development contracts with the U.S. Federal Government as production-type service contracts; accordingly, it accrues liabilities for onerous contracts in the period it becomes evident the contract will result in a loss. • Customers other than the U.S. Federal Government – As the Company generally develops wafer manufacturing plans for its customers under ATS development contracts, ATS development contracts with non-U.S. Federal Government ATS development customers do not represent production-type service contracts; accordingly, the Company recognizes losses as the losses are incurred; it does not accrue liabilities for anticipated losses. Tools - The Company procures tools on behalf of certain customers. Tool revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the tool transfers to the customer. The point in time when control of a tool transfers to the customer is determined by customer contract terms. For some customers, control transfers when the tool is shipped or delivered to a SkyWater facility, while for other customers, control transfers when the tool is installed, qualified, and placed into service at a SkyWater facility. Wafer Services - Wafers are goods that are generally customer specific, highly customized and have no alternative use to the Company. Wafer Services customers contract with the Company to manufacture wafers based on their manufacturing design specifications. The terms of Wafer Services contracts dictate when control over wafers is transferred to the Company's customers. For contracts where orders are non-cancelable and the Company thereby maintain enforceable rights to customer performance, including rights to payment for partially completed wafers at reasonable margins, control over wafers transfers to its customers as wafers are manufactured. For these contracts, the Company recognizes revenue using an input method. This method measures the percentage of completion of wafers still in the manufacturing process by comparing total costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs to manufacture the wafers. The Company records that proportion of the transaction price as revenue in the period. The input method provides the best method of progress as it considers the steps and activities needed to manufacture a wafer and the costs associated with those steps. Costs include labor costs, manufacturing costs, material costs, and other direct costs required to manufacture customers’ wafers. The estimation of total costs requires significant judgment and any adjustment to estimates of cost to complete manufacturing may impact the proportion of completion achieved and could result in cumulative adjustments of revenue. When the Company’s contracts allow for orders to be canceled and it does not maintain enforceable rights to customer performance on canceled orders, including a right to payment for partially completed wafers at reasonable margins, control of wafers transfers to its customers at the point in time when wafer manufacturing is complete, and wafers have been shipped to the customer. In these instances, the Company recognizes revenue based on the agreed shipping terms with its customers. The Company has a long-standing relationship with a significant Wafer Services customer. The terms and conditions of this relationship have evolved over time and have dictated the manner in which the Company recognized revenue for the manufacture of their wafers. Prior to 2021, transfer of control of wafers, and revenue recognition occurred as completed wafers were shipped to the customer. In fiscal year 2021, this customer requested that it be able to purchase wafers and for those wafers to be shipped to them at a later date of their choosing. With the introduction of these bill and hold terms, transfer of control of the wafers, and revenue recognition occurred as wafers completed post-manufacturing electrical testing and became available for shipment to the customer. In March 2022, the Company signed a new contract with this customer pursuant to which orders became non-cancelable and thus there was a right to specific performance by the customer, including an enforceable right to payment for the cost of partially completed orders plus a reasonable profit margin. Given that the wafers produced for this customer are for customer-specific applications with no alternative use, the introduction of these contract terms demonstrated that control of the wafers transfers to the customer over time as the wafers are manufactured pursuant to ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“Topic 606”). Accordingly, the Company’s revenue recognition method for wafers produced for this customer transitioned from point in time to over-time using the Company's input method of revenue recognition. In March 2022, the Company recorded a one-time, cumulative adjustment to revenue of $8,290 for wafers still being manufactured at the time the new contract became enforceable. Between 2021 and March 2022, wafers manufactured while bill and hold provisions were in place, were separately identified as belonging to this customer, the wafers were denoted as ready for shipment to this customer in their then current form, and the Company did not have the ability to direct or sell the wafers to a different customer. Upon completion of post-manufacturing electrical testing, the Company had the right to invoice this customer. This customer also obtained legal title and the risks and rewards of ownership at this point. |
Research and Development Expense | Research and Development Expense Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense include all costs incurred related to internal technology and process improvements and non-customer funded technology transfers. |
Licensed Technology | Licensed Technology The Company licenses technology and pays royalties based on the revenue of the related products sold by the Company. Royalties are expensed as incurred and included in cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Equity-Based Compensation | Equity-Based Compensation Compensation cost under the Company’s equity-based compensation plans are measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the granted award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Forfeitures reduce compensation expense for non-vested awards in the period the forfeitures occur. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to measure the grant-date-fair-value of awards. The Black-Scholes model requires certain assumptions to determine an award’s fair value, including expected term, risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, expected dividend yield, and fair value of underlying unit of equity to which the award relates. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Interest and penalties are recognized within interest expense and income tax (benefit) expense, respectively, in the consolidated statement of operations. |

Schedule of Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model Assumptions | The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses assumptions noted in the following table. The expected life of an option represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding and is based on the SEC Simplified Method (midpoint of average vesting time and contractual term). Expected volatility is based on an average of the historical, daily volatility of a peer group of similar companies blended with SkyWater’s historic daily volatility over a period consistent with the expected life assumption ending on the grant date. The risk-free interest rates used in the option valuation model was based on yields available on the grant dates for U.S. Treasury Strips with a maturity consistent with the expected life assumption. The Company assumed no dividend yield in the valuation of the options granted as it has never declared or paid dividends on its common stock and has no current plans to introduce dividends as it intends to retain earnings for use in operations.
