Net revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was $292.5 million and was 13.5% higher than net revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. This was primarily due to an increase in net revenue in our Core IoT product line, which increased 73.8% compared to the same period a year ago, primarily driven by an increase in units sold and an increase in average selling prices due to our product sales mix, inclusive of the contribution from the Broadcom transaction. Net revenue from our Enterprise and Automotive product line for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the same period a year ago remained flat and net revenue from our Mobile product category decreased by 18.4% primarily driven by a decrease in revenue from the licensing of certain of our IP.
Current report
Gross margin for the three months ended September 2025 and September 2024 was 42.6% and 46.9%, respectively. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to a decrease in revenue from the licensing of certain of our IP and an increase in amortization of acquired intangible assets primarily from the developed technologies we acquired from Broadcom during fiscal 2025.

These provisions were evaluated and reflected in our income tax provision for the three months ended September 2025 and did not have a material impact on our effective tax rate or cash flows. We will continue to monitor forthcoming Treasury and IRS guidance and assess potential implications for future reporting periods.
Current report

Many of our customers have manufacturing operations in China, and many of our OEM customers have established design centers in Asia. With our global presence, including offices in China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Japan, Korea, Poland, Switzerland, Taiwan, the U.K., and the U.S., we are well positioned to provide local sales, operational, and engineering support services to our existing customers, as well as potential new customers, on a global basis.
Previous report
Our manufacturing operations are based on a variable cost model in which we outsource all of our production requirements and generally drop ship our products directly to our customers from our contract manufacturers’ facilities, eliminating the need for significant capital expenditures and allowing us to minimize our investment in inventories. This approach requires us to work closely with our contract manufacturers and semiconductor fabricators to ensure adequate production capacity to meet our forecasted volume requirements. We use third-party wafer manufacturers to supply wafers and third-party packaging manufacturers to package our proprietary ASICs. In certain cases, we rely on a single source, or a limited number of suppliers, to provide other key components of our products. Our cost of revenue includes all costs associated with the production of our products, including materials; logistics; amortization of intangibles related to acquired developed technology; backlog; supplier arrangements; manufacturing, assembly, royalties paid to third-party intellectual property providers and test costs paid to third-party manufacturers; and related overhead costs associated with our indirect manufacturing operations personnel. Additionally, we charge all warranty costs, losses on inventory purchase obligations, and the provision for excess and obsolete inventories to cost of revenue.
Previous report
Our gross margin generally reflects the combination of the added value we bring to our OEM customers’ products by meeting their custom design requirements and the impact of our ongoing cost-improvement programs. These cost-improvement programs include reducing materials and component costs and implementing design and process improvements.

Non-Operating Income
Previous report
Interest and other income of $23.0 million for the nine months ended March 2025 decreased by $8.4 million, compared to the same period a year ago, which was primarily driven by an overall decrease in interest rates and a decrease in our invested cash and cash equivalents, as well as a reduction in cash balances following the early repayment of the entire Term Loan Facility in November 2024 and Broadcom acquisition in January 2025.
Previous report
Interest expense of $34.3 million for the nine months ended March 2025, decreased by $14.5 million compared to the same period a year ago and was primarily driven by the early repayment of the Term Loan Facility in November 2024.

Previous report
Loss on early extinguishment of debt. In connection with our issuance of the 2031 Notes, we used a portion of the net proceeds from the 2031 Notes, along with our cash on hand, to repay the outstanding balance under our Term Loan Facility. The repayment of the Term Loan Facility was accounted for as a debt extinguishment. The consideration used to extinguish the Term Loan Facility and the carrying value of the Term Loan Facility (including unamortized debt issuance costs) resulted in a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $6.5 million, which is included in "Loss on early extinguishment of debt" within our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Net revenue from Enterprise and Automotive product applications increased as a result of an increase in units sold (which increased 9.6%), and an increase in average selling prices (which increased 6.1%) due to our product sales mix compared to the same period a year ago. The increase in revenue from Enterprise and Automotive product applications was partially offset by a decrease of $30.0 million in revenue from the licensing of certain of our IP. Net revenue from Mobile product applications decreased due to a decrease in units sold (which decreased 8.1%), and a decrease in average selling prices (which decreased 7.6%), as overall demand decreased for our products in the mobile market compared to the same period a year ago.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD, introduced Pillar Two Model Rules for a global minimum tax of 15% applicable to large multinational corporations. Many countries in which we have business operations, including the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and Japan, have implemented certain aspects of Pillar Two, which become effective to our company in fiscal 2025. The OECD and the implementing countries are expected to keep issuing more guidance and refining their laws. Based on the latest legislation and our current estimate, Pillar Two had no impact on our effective tax rate or cash flows for the first nine months of fiscal 2025. We will continue to evaluate the potential impact of these tax law changes on future reporting periods.

Further equity or debt financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms. If sufficient funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our future long-term working capital needs, take advantage of business opportunities or to respond to competitive pressures could be limited or severely constrained.
