Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements relating to our expectations, projections, beliefs, and prospects, which are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

You should read these statements carefully because they may relate to future expectations around growth, strategy and anticipated trends in our business, contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other “forward-looking” information. These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations, estimates, assumptions, and projections about future events and are applicable only as of the dates of such statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified herein, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other reports we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted include, but are not limited to:
•our expectations regarding our ability to address market and customer demands and to timely develop new or enhanced solutions to meet those demands;
•anticipated trends, challenges and growth in our business and the markets in which we operate, including pricing expectations;
•our expectations regarding our revenue, revenue mix, average selling prices, gross margin, and expenses;
•our expectations regarding dependence on a limited number of customers and end customers;
•our expectations regarding the effects of macroeconomic conditions such as economic slowdowns, inflation, stagflation, high or rising interest rates, financial institution instability, and recessions, as well as risks related to global economic conditions such as the current armed conflicts in Israel and the Middle East;
•our customer relationships and our ability to retain and expand our customer relationships and to achieve design wins;
•our expectations regarding the success, cost, and timing of new products;
•the size and growth potential of the markets for our solutions, and our ability to serve and expand our presence in those markets;
•our expectations regarding competition in our existing and future markets;
•our expectations of the success of our acquisitions and how we integrate and generate revenue;
•the impact a pandemic, epidemic, or other outbreak of disease may in the future have on our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as the businesses of our suppliers and customers;
•our expectations regarding trading relationships between countries in which we operate, including those between the United States and China, and related regulatory developments, such as tariffs, customs duties, trade sanctions and cross-border investment restrictions;
•our expectations regarding the performance of, and our relationships with, our third-party suppliers and manufacturers;
•our expectations regarding intellectual property and related litigation;
•our expectations regarding our ability to attract and retain key personnel; and
•the accuracy of our estimates regarding capital requirements and needs for additional financing.
The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the
3
impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as may be required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements or the reasons that results could differ from these forward-looking statements. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or will occur.

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd was formed as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands in September 2014. Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd directly owns Credo Technology Group Ltd., which owns, directly and indirectly, all of the shares of its subsidiaries in mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Canada, Israel and the United States (U.S.). References to the “Company” in these notes refer to Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, unless otherwise specified.
The Company’s mission is to transform connectivity at scale through fast, reliable and energy-efficient system solutions. The Company’s high-speed copper and optical interconnect technologies deliver industry-leading power and performance from chip to cluster to meet the ever-expanding data infrastructure demands of AI. The Company’s vertical integrated connectivity product portfolio includes flagship purple ZeroFlap (ZF) Active Electrical Cables (AECs) and ZF optical transceivers; optical components including silicon photonics-based photonic integrated circuits (SiPho PICs) and DSPs; OmniConnect AI memory and chip-to-chip interconnect; and retimers for Ethernet and PCIe—supported by the PILOT diagnostic and analytics software platform. The Company’s innovations enable our customers to connect the systems that connect the world.
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to April 30. Its fiscal year ending May 1, 2027 (fiscal year 2027) is a 52-week fiscal year. The Company’s fiscal year ended May 2, 2026 (fiscal year 2026) was a 52-week fiscal year.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The Company believes that other than the accounting policies as described below, there have been no significant changes to the items disclosed in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies,” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026.
Contingent Consideration
Certain of the Company’s acquisition agreements include contingent earn-out arrangements, which are generally based on the achievement of future financial metrics. The fair values of these earn-out arrangements are included as part of the purchase price of the acquired companies on their respective acquisition dates. For each transaction, the Company estimates the fair value of contingent earn-out payments as part of the initial purchase price and records the estimated fair value of contingent consideration as a liability or an equity on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company reviews and re-assesses the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities on a quarterly basis, and the updated fair value could be materially different from the initial estimates or prior amounts. Changes in the estimated fair value of its contingent earn-out liabilities and adjustments to the estimated fair value related to changes in all other unobservable inputs are reported in other income, net on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
10
Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions and beliefs of what could occur in the future, given the available information. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, write-down for excess and obsolete inventories, variable consideration from revenue contracts, determination of the fair value of share-based awards valued under Monte Carlo simulation, determination of the probability of achieving performance conditions for performance-based share-based awards, the realization of tax assets and estimates of tax reserves, valuation of acquired intangible assets and contingent consideration, and impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill (as applicable). Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements. In the current macroeconomic environment, these estimates require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, these estimates may change materially in future periods.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period balances were reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. None of these reclassifications had an impact on reported net income or cash flows for any of the periods presented.
Accounting Pronouncement Recently Adopted
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, providing all entities with a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim periods within the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 and the adoption did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income— Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires disclosure of, in interim and annual reporting periods, additional information about certain expenses in the financial statements. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and may be applied on a retrospective or prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
3. Concentrations
Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash is placed in major financial institutions around the world. The Company’s cash deposits exceed insured limits. Short-term investments are subject to counterparty risk up to the amount presented on the balance sheet.
Historically, a relatively small number of customers have accounted for a significant portion of the Company’s revenue. The particular customers which account for revenue concentration have varied from period-to-period as a result of the volumes and prices at which the customers have recently bought the Company’s products. These variations are expected to continue in the foreseeable future.
The following tables summarize the accounts receivable and revenue as a percentage of total accounts receivable and total revenue, respectively:
| Accounts Receivable | August 1, 2026 | May 2, 2026 | |||||||||
| Customer A | % | % | |||||||||

Remaining Performance Obligations
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations as of August 1, 2026 were approximately $4.2 million, which the Company expects to recognize over the next 12 months.
5. Business Combination
DustPhotonics
On May 28, 2026, the Company acquired 100 % of the equity interest of DustPhotonics Ltd. (DustPhotonics), a developer of Silicon Photonics Photonic Integrated Circuit technology for optical transceivers, for a total purchase consideration of $1.3 billion. This acquisition was primarily intended to position the Company with a vertically integrated connectivity stack spanning SerDes, DSP, Silicon Photonics and system integration for scale out and scale up networks — addressing both electrical and optical interconnects across the full AI infrastructure build-out.
The factors contributing to the recognition of goodwill were based upon the Company’s conclusion that there are strategic and synergistic benefits that are expected to be realized from the acquisition. Goodwill recorded for the DustPhotonics acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has one reportable segment and accordingly, there is no goodwill assignment based on reporting units.
The following table summarizes the total purchase consideration (in thousands):
| Cash consideration | $ | ||||
| Ordinary shares issued | |||||
| Ordinary shares consideration for replacement equity awards attributable to pre-combination services | |||||
| Contingent consideration | |||||
| Total purchase consideration | $ | ||||
In accordance with U.S. GAAP requirements for business combinations, the Company allocated the fair value of the purchase consideration to the tangible assets, liabilities and intangible assets, generally based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. IPR&D is initially capitalized at fair value as an intangible asset with an indefinite life and assessed for impairment thereafter. When an IPR&D project is completed, the IPR&D is reclassified as an amortizable intangible asset and amortized over the asset’s estimated

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
useful life. The Company’s valuation assumptions of acquired assets and assumed liabilities require significant estimates, especially with respect to intangible assets and contingent consideration.
The Company estimates the fair value of contingent earn-out payments in cash and the Company’s ordinary shares as part of the initial purchase price and records the estimated fair value of contingent consideration as a liability of $10.0 million and equity of $300.0 million on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the periods such costs are incurred and were not material for the periods presented. Pro forma results of operations for both acquisitions have not been presented because the effect of the acquisitions was not material to the Company’s financial results.
The purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):
| Cash | $ | ||||
| Inventory | |||||
| Property and equipment | |||||
| Goodwill | |||||
| Intangible assets | |||||
| Accounts receivable, other current assets and other non-current assets | |||||
| Accounts payable | ( | ||||
| Deferred tax liabilities | ( | ||||
| Accrued compensation and benefits, other current liabilities and non-current liabilities | ( | ||||
| $ | |||||
The fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and based on management’s estimates and assumptions which may be subject to change as additional information is received. The primary areas that remain preliminary relate to the fair values of certain intangible assets acquired, contingent consideration as of the acquisition date, income tax, including deferred taxes, and residual goodwill. The Company expects to finalize the valuation no later than one year from the acquisition date.
Comira
On February 25, 2026, the Company acquired 100 % of the equity interest of CoMira Solutions, Inc. (Comira), a high-speed connectivity IP innovator, for a total cash consideration of $35.1 million. This acquisition was primarily intended to bring specialized link layer, error correction and security semiconductor IP to support the development of new and advanced system-level solutions for scale-up and scale-out AI architectures.
The factors contributing to the recognition of goodwill were based upon the Company’s conclusion that there are strategic and synergistic benefits that are expected to be realized from the acquisition. Goodwill recorded for the Comira acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has one reportable segment and accordingly, there is no goodwill assignment based on reporting units.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the periods such costs are incurred and were not material for the periods presented. Pro forma results of operations for both acquisitions have not been presented because the effect of the acquisitions was not material to the Company’s financial results.
Hyperlume
On September 29, 2025, the Company acquired 100 % of the equity interest of Hyperlume, Inc. (Hyperlume), a developer of miniature light-emitting diode (microLED)-based optical interconnect technology for chip-to-chip communication, for a total purchase consideration of $92.0 million. Total purchase consideration is attributable to cash consideration of $88.7 million and cash settlement of vested share-based payment awards of $3.3 million by Hyperlume. This acquisition was primarily intended to expand the Company’s comprehensive portfolio of end-to-end system-level connectivity solutions with Hyperlume’s cutting-edge microLED technology to address the future of artificial intelligence-driven data infrastructure deployments.
The factors contributing to the recognition of goodwill were based upon the Company’s conclusion that there are strategic and synergistic benefits that are expected to be realized from the acquisition. Goodwill recorded for the Hyperlume acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has one reportable segment and accordingly, there is no goodwill assignment based on reporting units.

6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in business combinations. The carrying value of goodwill as of August 1, 2026 and May 2, 2026 was $986.4 million and $92.8 million, respectively.

7. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity.
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The Company measures the fair value of money market funds using Level 1 inputs. The Company’s certificates of deposit are classified as held-to-maturity securities as the Company intends to hold until their maturity dates. The certificates of deposit are valued using Level 2 inputs. Pricing sources may include industry standard data providers,

In connection with the Hyperlume acquisition, the Company issued 87 thousand RSUs under its 2021 long-term incentive plan in replacement for the unvested options under Hyperlume’s equity incentive plan. The RSUs retain the same vesting conditions as the unvested options that they replaced. The Company also issued 132 thousand restricted shares of the Company to one of the founders of Hyperlume and 132 thousand restricted shares of a newly formed subsidiary of the Company that are exchangeable into restricted shares of the Company to the other founder of Hyperlume. The restricted shares were issued in exchange for the founders’ outstanding equity interests in Hyperlume and vest on a quarterly basis, subject to continued employment with the Company over the next 3 years.
Both RSUs and restricted shares were measured at the acquisition date’s fair value of $146.01 per share and the fair value of those shares represent post-acquisition share-based compensation expense that will be recognized as these employees provide service over the remaining vesting periods of up to 4 years.
In connection with the DustPhotonics acquisition, the Company issued 254 thousand RSUs under its 2021 long-term incentive plan in replacement for the unvested options under DustPhotonics’ equity incentive plan. The RSUs retain the same vesting conditions as the unvested options that they replaced. The RSUs were measured at the acquisition date’s fair value of $222.35 per share and the fair value of those shares represent post-acquisition share-based compensation expense that will be recognized as these employees provide service over the remaining vesting periods of up to 4 years.

11. Income Taxes
The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, excluding zero rate jurisdictions and adjusted for discrete items, if any, that arise during the period. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual effective tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment in such period. The Company’s quarterly tax provision, and estimate of its annual effective tax rate, is subject to variation due to several factors, including variability in accurately predicting its pre-tax income or loss and the mix of jurisdictions to which they relate, intercompany transactions, changes in tax laws, the applicability of special tax regimes, changes in how we do business and discrete items.
Provision for income taxes for the three months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 was as follows (in thousands except percentages):

| Effective tax rate | ( | % | % | ||||||||||||||
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended August 1, 2026 differed from that of the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to the tax impact of acquired intangible assets and related purchase accounting adjustments arising from the DustPhotonics acquisition.
During the three months ended August 1, 2026, there were no material changes to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits and we do not expect any significant changes in the next 12 months.
In connection with the DustPhotonics acquisition, the Company recognized a deferred tax liability of $48.0 million related to the acquired intangible assets and acquired tax attributes.
12. Net Income Per Share
The Company reports both basic net income per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period and diluted net income per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding and potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the period. Net income per share for the three months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, respectively, was determined as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties as described under the heading “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
At Credo, our mission is to transform connectivity at scale through fast, reliable and energy-efficient system solutions. The Company’s high-speed copper and optical interconnect products deliver industry-leading power and performance at up to 1.6T to meet the ever-expanding data infrastructure demands of AI. The Company’s product portfolio includes ZeroFlap (ZF) Active Electrical Cables (AECs) and ZF optical transceivers, OmniConnect memory solutions and a suite of retimers and DSPs for optical and copper Ethernet and PCIe, all leveraging the PILOT diagnostic and analytics software platform. The Company’s innovations enable our customers to connect the systems that connect the world.
Our connectivity solutions are optimized for optical and electrical Ethernet, PCIe and emerging UALink, ESUN and SUE applications, ranging in speeds from 32G (or Gigabits per second per lane) to 200G. Our products are based on our own optimized Serializer/Deserializer (SerDes) and DSP technologies. Our product families include integrated circuits (ICs), Active Electrical Cables (AECs) and SerDes Chiplets. Our intellectual property (IP) solutions consist primarily of SerDes IP licensing.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has bred a new generation of data centers over the past 5 years that depend much more heavily on high speed, reliable communications for Front End, Scale Out, Scale Up and emerging Scale In Networks. Our proprietary SerDes and DSP technologies enable us to achieve similar performance to leading competitors’ products but at a lower cost and more highly available legacy node (n-1 advantage). Beyond power and performance, Credo continues to innovate to address customers’ system level requirements. We partnered with Oracle to develop our ZeroFlap Optics that helps address the reliability issues known as Link Flap which plague commodity options in AI data centers enabling faster AI cluster turn on and time to first revenue.
The multibillion-dollar data infrastructure market that we serve is driven largely by hyperscale data centers (hyperscalers) and emerging NeoClouds building AI/Machine Learning (ML) Infrastructure as well as general compute and data centers. The demands for increased bandwidth, better reliability and improved power efficiency have grown as AI model sizes have increased from billions to trillions of parameters and the workload has expanded from training to inference.
We design, market and sell product, software and IP solutions. We help define industry conventions and standards within the markets we target by collaborating with technology leaders and standards bodies. We contract with a variety of manufacturing partners to build our products based on our proprietary SerDes and DSP technologies. We develop standard solutions we can sell broadly to our end markets and also develop tailored solutions designed to address specific customer needs. Once developed, these tailored solutions can generally be broadly leveraged across our portfolio and we are able to sell the part or license the IP to the broader market.
During the three months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, we generated $479.0 million and $223.1 million in revenue, respectively. Geographically, 53% and 37% of our total revenue in the three months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, respectively, was generated from customers in North America, and 47% and 63% of our total revenue in the three months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, respectively, was generated from customers in the rest of the world, primarily in Asia. During the three months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, we generated $129.4 million and $63.4 million in net income, respectively.
We derive the substantial majority of our revenue from a limited number of customers. We anticipate we will continue to derive a significant portion of our revenue from a limited number of customers for the foreseeable future. We expect that as our products are more widely adopted and as our number of customers increase, customer concentration will decrease.
22
We sell our products to hyperscalers, Neoclouds, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), original design manufacturers (ODMs) and optical module manufacturers, as well as to companies in the enterprise and HPC markets. We work closely and have engagements with industry-leading companies across these segments. A relatively small number of customers have historically accounted for and continue to account for a significant portion of our revenue. We report revenue by customer in our financial statement disclosure based on the contracting parties who place purchase orders or sign revenue contracts with us. See Note 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, certain of our end customers have their contract manufacturing partners place orders with us. As a result, the contract manufacturers, rather than the end customers, are reported as our customers for financial reporting purposes. As a supplement to our financial statement footnote disclosure and to provide further insight into our end customer concentration, the following table summarizes our revenue by customer as a percentage of revenue based on end customer profile, rather than based on the contracting parties who place purchase orders or sign revenue contracts with us:
| Three Months Ended | |||||||||||
| Revenue | August 1, 2026 | August 2, 2025 | |||||||||

| Customer E | 13 | % | 20 | % | |||||||
| Customer F | 10 | % | * | ||||||||
* Less than 10% of total revenue.
Our Business Model
We are a product-focused business with a strong foundation in IP, pioneering comprehensive connectivity solutions that deliver bandwidth, scalability and end-to-end signal integrity for next-generation platforms.
We utilize a fabless business model, working with a network of third parties to manufacture, assemble and test our connectivity products. This approach allows us to focus our engineering and design resources on our core competencies and to control our fixed costs and capital expenditures.
We employ a two-pronged sales strategy targeting both the end users of our products, as well as the suppliers of our end users. By engaging directly with the end user, we are able to better understand the needs of our customers and cater our solutions to their most pressing connectivity requirements.
This strategy has enabled us to become the preferred vendor to a number of our customers who, in turn, in some cases, require their suppliers, OEMs, ODMs and optical module manufacturers to utilize our solutions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our activities consist primarily of selling our products. As of August 1, 2026 and May 2, 2026, we had $466.9 million and $1.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents, respectively, and working capital of $1.3 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively. Our principal use of cash is to fund our operations, invest in research and development and acquisitions of complementary businesses or technologies to support our growth. See Note 9 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion of our cash requirements under non-cancelable purchase obligations.
We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and other components of working capital will be sufficient to meet our needs for at least the next 12 months and in the longer term. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, the timing and extent of our sales and marketing and research and development expenditures, customer demand and the continuing market acceptance of our solutions. In the event that we need to borrow funds or issue additional equity, we cannot be assured that any such additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when we need it, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected.

The cash inflows from operating activities for the three months ended August 1, 2026 were primarily due to net income of $129.4 million adjusted for the following non-cash items: share-based compensation expense of $88.0 million, depreciation and amortization of $8.6 million, amortization of acquired intangible assets of $11.6 million and write-downs for excess and obsolete inventory of $3.9 million, partially offset by $151.3 million of cash outflows from working capital purposes. The cash outflows from working capital for the three months ended August 1, 2026 were primarily driven by (a) an increase in accounts receivable of $54.5 million primarily due to increased sales in the three months ended August 1, 2026; (b) an increase in inventory of $61.5 million to support unfulfilled backlog and related new product ramps; (c) an increase in other non-current assets of $25.3 million primarily relating to payments of refundable deposits for a manufacturing supply capacity reservation agreement; and (d) a decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities of $16.4 million due to timing of payments for inventory and IP license purchases.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $54.2 million for the three months ended August 2, 2025. The cash inflows from operating activities for the three months ended August 2, 2025 were primarily due to $63.4 million in net income adjusted for the following non-cash items: share-based compensation expense of $35.5 million, depreciation and amortization of $5.5 million and other non-cash items of $2.0 million. This was offset by $52.1 million of cash outflows from working capital for the three months ended August 2, 2025, which was primarily driven by (a) an increase in accounts receivable of $19.1 million primarily due to increased sales in the three months ended August 2, 2025; (b) an increase in inventory of $27.5 million to support unfulfilled backlog and related new product ramps and (c) an increase in accounts payable of $9.0 million due to timing of payment for purchases of property and equipment.
Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities of $762.0 million in the three months ended August 1, 2026 was primarily attributable to purchases of property and equipment of $7.3 million, purchases of certificates of deposit for $19.1 million, and net cash payment for DustPhotonics acquisition of $735.6 million. Purchases of property and equipment primarily related to equipment, computer equipment and software used for research and development purposes.
Net cash used in investing activities of $67.8 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025 was primarily attributable to purchases of the certificates of deposit for $115.0 million and purchases of property and equipment of
26
$2.8 million, offset by maturities of certificates of deposit for $50.0 million. Purchases of property and equipment primarily related to third-party IP licenses and computer equipment and software used for research and development purposes.
Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities of $26.7 million for the three months ended August 1, 2026 was primarily attributable to $5.2 million in payments for long-term technology license obligations and $25.9 million tax withheld related to RSU settlement offset by $4.5 million in proceeds from exercises of employee share options.
Net cash used in financing activities of $3.0 million for the three months ended August 2, 2025 was primarily attributable to $3.9 million in payments for long-term technology license obligations, offset by $0.9 million in proceeds from exercises of employee share options and the issuance of shares under the ESPP net of tax withheld for RSU settlement.
Critical Accounting Estimates
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the three months ended August 1, 2026, as compared to those disclosed under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026. In the current macroeconomic environment, our estimates could require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. We continue to monitor and assess our estimates in light of developments, and as events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, our estimates may change materially in future periods.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
For a discussion of market risks, refer to Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026. During the three months ended August 1, 2026, there were no material changes or developments that would materially alter the market risk assessment performed as of May 2, 2026.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our “internal control over financial reporting,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the quarter ended August 1, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Credo have been detected.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not presently a party to any litigation the outcome of which, we believe, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on us. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and the trading price of our ordinary shares. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2026.
