Grounding quotes
  • “We delivered fiscal Q3 revenue results slightly above the midpoint of our guidance, primarily reflecting strength in advanced computing, including AI, servers, and graphics cards offset by softness in PC markets resulting from seasonality and memory shortage headwinds.”
  • “we believe the December and March quarters represent a bottom for both revenue and gross margin, reflecting the impact of near-term market conditions and supporting a more constructive outlook going forward”
  • “While calendar 2026 may reflect some near-term variability, we are confident that the combination of expanding advanced computing opportunities, increased bond content across key end markets, and our continued execution will position us well for stronger growth as we exit 2026 and accelerate into 2027 and beyond.”
  • “Near-term PC demand appears stable for the June quarter, but visibility into the second half of the calendar year remains limited given ongoing macro and component-related uncertainties.”

Key takeaways

What improved, and what deserves a closer read.

Constructive signals

  • Advanced computing revenue more than doubled sequentially and grew over 40% year-over-year, now representing 25% of the computing segment
  • Computing segment revenue up 2.1% year-over-year, slightly better than guidance of low single-digit sequential decline
  • Tablets showed strong sequential growth and the communication segment beat expectations, driven by year-over-year growth from a Tier 1 U.S. smartphone customer
  • Company guides June quarter computing segment revenue to increase low to mid single digits sequentially on strong AI and server demand
  • Medium-voltage MOSFETs for AI hot-swap and intermediate bus converter applications are ramping, with solutions shipping into ODMs for major hyperscale customers
  • Management views December and March quarters as the bottom for both revenue and gross margin, expressing confidence in stronger growth exiting 2026 into 2027

Risks & pressure points

  • Non-GAAP gross margin declined to 21.7% from 22.2% in the prior quarter and 22.5% a year ago
  • Non-GAAP operating loss widened to $8.7 million from $5.2 million in the prior quarter and $2.7 million a year ago
  • Non-GAAP net loss per diluted share of $0.28 worsened from $0.16 in the prior quarter and $0.10 a year ago
  • PC market demand softness due to seasonality and memory supply constraints, with industry PC forecasts being revised lower and expected decline in calendar 2026
  • Memory supply constraints and price pressures cited as growing headwinds for the second half of calendar 2026
  • Management is seeing increases in input costs from materials and foundry subcontractors, already reflected in June quarter guidance
