During the three months ended June 28, 2026, our net revenue decreased by $2.0 million, or 1.2%, compared to the prior year period, driven by an $8.3 million, or 9.4%, decrease in our Consumer segment, partially offset by a $6.3 million, or 7.7%, increase in our Enterprise segment. The decrease in Consumer net revenue was driven by lower sales of our service provider and related products, consistent with our strategy of harvesting this business, as well as by declines in our core consumer business attributable to continued softness in the broader home networking retail market, including electronics pricing pressures from rising memory costs. In light of these conditions, we have been prioritizing gross profit over revenue growth in our Consumer business. The increase in Enterprise net revenue was mainly attributable to continued strong demand for our Pro AV product line of managed switches, which experienced double-digit end-market sales growth in the Americas and EMEA regions, primarily driven by higher average selling prices. Gross margin improved by 270 basis points year-over-year to 40.2%, primarily driven by a higher revenue mix from our higher-margin Enterprise segment, partially offset by higher excess or obsolete inventory charges and higher product costs associated with memory chip price increases in our Consumer business. We recorded an operating loss of $8.4 million, an improvement compared to an operating loss of $9.5 million in the prior year period, as the gross margin improvement more than offset higher operating expenses, which were mainly driven by higher headcount and related investments as we continue to focus on and shift resources toward growing our Enterprise business.

Current wording

During the three months ended September 27, 2026, our net revenue decreased by $17.2 million, or 9.3%, compared to the prior year period, driven by a $17.1 million, or 18.2%, decrease in our Consumer segment, while net revenue in our Enterprise segment was relatively flat. The decrease in Consumer net revenue was driven by lower sales of our service provider and related products, consistent with our strategy of harvesting this business, as well as by declines in our core consumer business attributable to continued softness in the broader home networking retail market, including electronics pricing pressures from rising memory costs. In light of these conditions, we have been prioritizing gross profit over revenue growth in our Consumer business. Enterprise net revenue was relatively flat, as growth in our Pro AV product line of managed switches in the Americas region was offset by declines in the EMEA and APAC regions. Supply constraints during the quarter also limited net revenue in both segments, particularly in Enterprise, due to a significant manufacturing delay at one of our contract manufacturers related to its challenges in bringing a new factory online rather than component availability. This delay was the primary driver of approximately $18 million of Enterprise backlog at quarter-end. Gross margin improved 100 basis points year-over-year to 40.1%, primarily driven by a higher revenue mix from our higher-margin Enterprise segment and lower warranty costs, partially offset by higher product costs associated with memory chip price increases and higher amortization of intangible assets. We recorded an operating loss of $13.7 million, compared to an operating loss of $7.1 million in the prior year period, primarily due to lower gross profit and higher restructuring and other charges resulting from organizational changes implemented in the third quarter of 2026, mainly severance and the cancellation of materials purchase commitments for certain mobile products.

Geographically, net revenue from our Enterprise segment increased in Americas and EMEA and decreased in APAC, while net revenue from our Consumer segment declined in Americas and APAC and was relatively flat in EMEA, during the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods.

Current wording

Geographically, for the three months ended September 27, 2026, net revenue from our Enterprise segment increased in Americas and decreased in EMEA and APAC, while net revenue from our Consumer segment declined in Americas and EMEA and was relatively flat in APAC, compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 27, 2026, net revenue from our Enterprise segment increased in Americas and EMEA and decreased in APAC, while net revenue from our Consumer segment declined in all three regions, compared to the prior year period.

Macroeconomic and geopolitical trends have continued to create uncertainty in the global economic environment. Contributing factors include persistent inflation, elevated interest rates, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, particularly involving the U.S. dollar, and ongoing trade policy shifts, including tariffs related to the U.S. and key international countries as well as U.S. tariffs and intensified trade actions. Trade policy uncertainty, including recently announced and proposed U.S. tariff actions and the potential for further expanded or modified tariff regimes, continues to affect global commerce and supply chain planning, and could increase our product costs. Geopolitical tensions and episodic maritime security incidents, to the extent that they disrupt global shipping routes, along with evolving supply chain disruptions and volatile ocean freight spot rates, have added complexity to the global operating environment. We are exposed to lengthening lead times and increasing costs on various components, including a significant increase in memory prices, driven in part by industry demand related to AI data center deployments, which have created additional pressures within our supply chain and could adversely affect our product costs and gross margin. In light of this environment, we continue to invest in cybersecurity, product security, and sourcing to enhance the security of our products as well as our regulatory compliance readiness. The extent of impacts from these macroeconomic and geopolitical trends and from our ongoing investment and go-to-market initiatives on our operational and financial performance, including our ability to execute our business strategies in the expected time frame, will depend on future developments. In addition, in March 2026, the Federal Communications Commission issued regulations adding foreign-produced routers to its Covered List, and in April 2026 we were granted conditional approval allowing us to continue to launch new consumer router models and provide software updates to existing products while the designation is maintained. The broader implications of the macroeconomic uncertainty, the evolving regulatory environment affecting our products, and any related disruptions to channel partners and freight remain unpredictable. Refer to Item 1A, Risk Factors of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for various risks and uncertainties associated with the macroeconomic trends and uncertainty.

Previous wording

Looking forward, we expect end-user demand for our Pro AV product line of managed switches within the Enterprise segment to remain strong, and we have secured sufficient memory supply for substantially all of our 2026 production plans for this segment. We continue to have visibility into memory cost impacts for the balance of the year and have made significant progress in accessing supply directly from memory manufacturers. The memory cost challenge is expanding to other parts of the Bill of Materials (“BOM”), and we are also experiencing modest production delays given the tightening environment. We expect the impact of rising memory costs on our Enterprise business to remain nominal, given the relatively higher average selling prices and gross margins of these products and the benefit of our recent price increases. In our Consumer segment, while our broader product portfolio continues to address market needs, we expect rising memory costs to continue to adversely impact our business despite the mitigation efforts we have undertaken with our channel partners. As we manage through the current memory supply environment, we will continue to prioritize gross profit over revenue in this segment. For our service provider and related products, we remain focused on harvesting this business and expect revenue to decline compared to the prior year period. We are continuing to ramp our planned investments, with a focus on expanding our insourced software development capabilities and enhancing our go-to-market efforts, particularly in support of our Enterprise business. These investments support our strategy of differentiating our portfolio through software, services, and security offerings. Within our Consumer business, we are addressing key technology transitions, including WiFi 8, WiFi 7, WiFi 6E, WiFi 6, and 5G, through a good, better, best product strategy. We are also continuing to expand service offerings, strengthen direct-to-consumer capabilities, and introduce new products, to support the expansion of recurring non-device revenue streams over time.

Current wording

Looking forward, within our Enterprise segment, we continue to see encouraging underlying demand, particularly for our Pro AV managed switches. However, our near-term revenue outlook remains constrained by manufacturing output and the timing of product availability, which we expect to persist into the first quarter of 2027. While we expect Enterprise revenue to increase modestly in the fourth quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter, we anticipate that improvements in production execution will still fall short of customer demand. We expect our cost mitigation efforts to continue to offset rising component costs within our Enterprise business. In our Consumer segment, we expect to continue to optimize this business for gross profit, with increasing impact from component costs and some additional impact from supply constraints, and we expect revenue in this segment to decline modestly compared to the third quarter of 2026. For our service provider and related products, we remain focused on optimizing contribution profit and expect revenue to decline significantly compared to the prior year period. We are continuing to ramp our planned investments, with a focus on expanding our insourced software development capabilities and enhancing our go-to-market efforts, particularly in support of our Enterprise business. These investments support our strategy of differentiating our portfolio through software, services, and security offerings.

Net revenue in Americas was relatively flat for the three months ended June 28, 2026, and decreased slightly for the six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. Consumer segment net revenue declined by $5.9 million and $12.0 million for the three- and six-month periods, respectively. The decreases in Consumer net revenue were driven by lower sales of our service provider and related products, consistent with our strategy of harvesting this business, as well as by declines in our core consumer business attributable to continued softness in the broader home networking retail market, including electronics pricing pressures from rising memory costs. The decreases were partially offset by increases in Enterprise segment net revenue of $6.1 million and $10.4 million for the three- and six-month periods, respectively, primarily attributable to our Pro AV product line of managed switches, driven mainly by higher average selling prices.

Current wording

Net revenue in Americas decreased for both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. Consumer segment net revenue declined by $14.3 million and $26.4 million for the three- and nine-month periods, respectively. The decreases in Consumer net revenue were driven by lower sales of our service provider and related products, consistent with our strategy of harvesting this business, as well as by declines in our core consumer business attributable to continued softness in the broader home networking retail market, including electronics pricing pressures from rising memory costs. The decreases were partially offset by increases in Enterprise segment net revenue of $2.0 million and $12.4 million for the three- and nine-month periods, respectively, primarily attributable to our Pro AV product line of managed switches, driven mainly by higher average selling prices. The manufacturing constraints noted above also limited net revenue in Americas for the three- and nine- month periods.

Previous wording

Net revenue in EMEA increased for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, primarily driven by growth in our Enterprise segment of $2.5 million and $3.2 million, respectively, attributable to our Pro AV product line of managed switches, primarily driven by higher average selling prices. Consumer segment net revenue in EMEA was relatively flat for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods.

Current wording

Net revenue in EMEA decreased for the three months ended September 27, 2026, and was relatively flat for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. For the three-month period, Consumer segment net revenue declined by $2.9 million, mainly attributable to declines in our core consumer business and lower sales of our service provider and related products, and Enterprise segment net revenue declined by $1.0 million. For the nine-month period, a decrease in Consumer segment net revenue of $2.7 million was largely offset by growth in our Enterprise segment of $2.3 million, attributable to our Pro AV product line of managed switches, driven mainly by higher average selling prices. The manufacturing constraints noted above also limited net revenue in EMEA for the three- and nine-month periods.

Previous wording

Net revenue in APAC decreased for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, attributable to declines in both segments. For the three- and six-month periods, Consumer segment net revenue declined $2.0 million and $4.3 million, respectively, while Enterprise segment net revenue declined $2.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively. Within our Consumer segment, the decline for the six-month period was mainly attributable to lower sales of our service provider and related products, while lower sales in the retail channel drove the declines for both the three- and six-month periods. The Enterprise segment declines also reflect the transformation of our go-to-market approach currently underway in the region, which we do not expect to contribute to revenue growth in the near term.

Current wording

Net revenue in APAC decreased for both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. Enterprise segment net revenue declined $1.1 million and $3.8 million for the three- and nine-month periods, respectively, reflecting in part the transformation of our go-to-market approach currently underway in the region, which we do not expect to contribute to revenue growth in the near term. Consumer segment net revenue was relatively flat for the three-month period, as lower sales of our service provider and related products were offset by higher retail sales, and declined $4.2 million for the nine-month period, mainly due to lower sales of our service provider and related products.

Previous wording

Our gross margin increased for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, primarily driven by a higher revenue mix from our higher-margin Enterprise segment, together with lower warranty costs for the six-month period, partially offset by higher excess or obsolete inventory charges in our Consumer business.

Current wording

Our gross margin increased for both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, primarily driven by a higher revenue mix from our higher-margin Enterprise segment and lower warranty costs, partially offset by higher product costs associated with memory chip price increases. The increase for the nine-month period was also partially offset by higher excess or obsolete inventory charges in our Consumer business.

Previous wording

We expect our gross margin in the third fiscal quarter of 2026 to be modestly below the second fiscal quarter of 2026 level, as the impact of rising memory costs continues to increase. The memory cost challenge is expanding to other parts of the BOM, and we are also experiencing modest production delays given the tightening environment. Forecasting gross margin percentages is difficult, and there are a number of risks related to our ability to maintain or improve our current gross margin levels. Our cost of revenue as a percentage of net revenue can vary significantly based upon factors such as: uncertainties surrounding revenue levels, broad-based inflationary pressures and the uncertain macroeconomic environment, future pricing and/or potential discounts as a result of the economy or in response to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar in our international markets, competition, the timing of sales, and related production level variances; import customs duties and imposed tariffs; changes in technology; changes in product mix; expenses associated with writing off excessive or obsolete inventory; variability of stock-based compensation costs; royalties to third parties; fluctuations in freight costs; manufacturing and purchase price variances; changes in prices on commodity components; and warranty costs. We expect that revenue derived from paid subscription service plans will continue to increase in the future, which may have a positive impact on our gross margin. However, we will continue to experience fluctuations in our gross margin due to the factors discussed above.

Current wording

We expect our gross margin in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2026 to be in line with or below the third fiscal quarter of 2026 level, as the impact of rising memory costs continues. The memory cost challenge has expanded to other parts of the BOM, and we are also experiencing production delays given the tightening environment. We also expect to incur higher air freight costs to bring in constrained product as our manufacturing partner works through their process of stabilizing their new production environment, which could affect our product mix and the timing of shipments. Forecasting gross margin percentages is difficult, and there are a number of risks related to our ability to maintain or improve our current gross margin levels. Our cost of revenue as a percentage of net revenue can vary significantly based upon factors such as: uncertainties surrounding revenue levels, broad-based inflationary pressures and the uncertain macroeconomic environment, future pricing and/or potential discounts as a result of the economy or in response to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar in our international markets, competition, the timing of sales, and related production level variances; import customs duties and imposed tariffs; changes in technology; changes in product mix; expenses associated with writing off excessive or obsolete inventory; variability of stock-based compensation costs; royalties to third parties; fluctuations in freight costs; manufacturing and purchase price variances; changes in prices on commodity components; and warranty costs.

Research and development expenses increased for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. These movements reflected, for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, increases in personnel-related expenditures of $1.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, primarily due to higher headcount in support of our Enterprise business, with an emphasis on insourcing software development, and increases in IT and facility allocations of $0.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Research and development headcount increased to 387 employees at June 28, 2026, compared to 280 employees at June 29, 2025.

Current wording

Research and development expenses decreased for the three months ended September 27, 2026, and increased for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. The decrease for the three-month period was primarily due to lower engineering project and outside professional services expenditures of $1.0 million and lower IT and facility allocations of $0.3 million, partially offset by higher personnel-related expenditures of $0.3 million. The increase for the nine-month period was primarily due to higher personnel-related expenditures of $4.0 million, mainly from higher headcount supporting our Enterprise business, with an emphasis on insourcing software development, and higher IT and facility allocations of $1.4 million, partially offset by lower engineering project and outside professional services expenditures of $1.6 million. Research and development headcount increased to 395 employees at September 27, 2026, compared to 319 employees at September 28, 2025.

Previous wording

We believe that innovation and technological leadership is critical to our future success, and we are committed to continuing a significant level of research and development to develop new technologies, products and services. We expect research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenue in the third fiscal quarter of 2026 to be in line with or slightly above the second fiscal quarter of 2026 level. We continually invest in research and development to create new technologies and services and to address technological trends such as AV over Ethernet, multi-Gigabit connectivity, WiFi 8, WiFi 7, eSIM and future technologies. We anticipate that our research and development efforts will increasingly focus on software, security, and capabilities that support subscription-based services and margin improvement. We also expect that our Enterprise segment will receive most of our incremental investments for 2026 with a focus on in-sourcing our software capabilities, building on our prior-year establishment of an in-house research and development center in Chennai, India and acquisitions of Exium and the source code for our managed switches, and expanding our product portfolio to grow our share in the sizable AV and enterprise WiFi markets. Research and development expenses may fluctuate depending on the timing and number of development activities and could vary significantly as a percentage of net revenue, depending on actual revenues achieved in any given quarter.

We expect sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue in the third fiscal quarter of 2026 to be in line with or slightly above the second fiscal quarter of 2026 level. We expect most of our incremental investments in sales and marketing in 2026 will be related to go-to-market capabilities of our product offerings in the Enterprise segment, partially offset by efficiencies in marketing on the Consumer side. Expenses may fluctuate depending on revenue levels achieved as certain expenses, such as commissions, are determined based upon the revenues achieved. Forecasting sales and marketing expenses is highly dependent on expected revenue levels and could vary significantly depending on actual revenue achieved in any given quarter. Marketing expenses may also fluctuate depending upon the timing, extent and nature of marketing programs. Marketing expenditure committed with a customer is generally recorded as a reduction of revenue per authoritative guidance.

Current wording

We expect sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2026 to be in line with the third fiscal quarter of 2026 level. We expect most of our incremental investments in sales and marketing in 2026 will be related to go-to-market capabilities of our product offerings in the Enterprise segment, partially offset by efficiencies in marketing on the Consumer side. Expenses may fluctuate depending on revenue levels achieved as certain expenses, such as commissions, are determined based upon the revenues achieved.

Previous wording

General and administrative expenses decreased slightly for the three months ended June 28, 2026, but increased slightly for the six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. The decrease for the three-month period was primarily due to lower legal and outside professional services and projects of $1.4 million, partially offset by higher facility and IT allocation of $0.5 million, and personnel-related costs of $0.3 million. The increase for the six-month period was primarily due to higher personnel-related expenditures of $1.5 million, including stock-based compensation expense associated with our executive transition, partially offset by lower legal and outside professional services and projects of $1.1 million.

Current wording

General and administrative expenses decreased slightly for the three months ended September 27, 2026 and were flat for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. The slight decrease for the three-month period was primarily due to lower IT and facility costs, including allocations, of $1.0 million, partially offset by higher legal and outside professional services of $0.3 million. For the nine-month period, general and administrative expenses were flat as lower IT and facility costs, including allocations, of $1.1 million, lower acquisition related expenses of $0.7 million, lower other operating expenses of $0.5 million and lower legal and outside professional services of $0.5 million were substantially offset by higher personnel-related expenditures of $2.4 million, including stock-based compensation expense associated with our executive transition.

Previous wording

We expect general and administrative expenses in absolute dollar amount in the third fiscal quarter of 2026 to be in line with or slightly below the second fiscal quarter of 2026 level. General and administrative expenses could fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including the level and timing of expenditures associated with litigation defense costs in connection with the litigation and other legal matters, as discussed in Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies, in Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Future increases or decreases in general and administrative expenses are difficult to predict in absolute dollars due to the lack of visibility of certain costs, including legal costs associated with defending claims against us, asserting and enforcing our intellectual property portfolio, acquisition related activities, and other factors.

Previous wording

Restructuring and other charges for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, were essentially flat compared to the prior year periods. Charges in the current year primarily reflected a new restructuring action initiated in the first quarter of 2026, with the resulting savings intended to be reinvested in our strategic priorities to support our ongoing transformation. For a detailed discussion of restructuring and other charges, refer to Note 14, Restructuring and Other Charges, in Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Current wording

Restructuring and other charges increased for both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. As part of our ongoing multi-phase transformation, we periodically implement organizational changes to align our cost structure and organizational design with our strategic priorities. Charges in the three-month period primarily related to organizational changes implemented in the third quarter of 2026, and consisted primarily of severance and contract termination and other costs related to the cancellation of materials purchase commitments for certain mobile products. In connection with these changes, we approved a plan to close our Richmond, Canada office, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2026. Charges for both periods also reflected organizational changes implemented in the first quarter of 2026. The savings resulting from these changes are intended to be reinvested in our strategic priorities to support our ongoing transformation. For a detailed discussion of restructuring and other charges, refer to Note 13, Restructuring and Other Charges, in Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Previous wording

The decreases in other income, net for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, were primarily due to lower interest income of $1.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, resulting from lower average cash and short-term investment balances, and imputed interest expense of $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, recognized in the current year periods related to an intangible asset acquisition. The six-month decrease also reflected $4.7 million of proceeds from a sale of patents in the prior year period, with no comparable amount in the current year.

Current wording

The decreases in other income, net for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, were primarily due to lower interest income of $1.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively, resulting from lower average cash and short-term investment balances, and imputed interest expense of $0.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, recognized in the current year periods related to an intangible asset acquisition. The nine-month decrease also reflected $4.7 million of proceeds from a sale of patents in the prior year period, with no comparable amount in the current year.

Previous wording

The decreases in income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, were primarily attributable to lower income in foreign jurisdictions. During the second quarter of 2026, we also recorded a discrete tax benefit related to the completion of our fiscal 2024 Pillar Two filings. The prior-year periods also reflected tax effects associated with the deferred tax liability established for intangible assets recognized in connection with the Exium acquisition. Because we maintain a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, no tax benefit is recognized on forecasted U.S. losses.

Current wording

The decreases in income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, were primarily attributable to net discrete tax benefits of $1.3 million recorded in the third quarter of 2026, consisting primarily of return-to-provision adjustments related to the carryback of the fiscal 2025 U.S. federal research and development credit and certain foreign tax credits upon finalization of our fiscal 2025 U.S. federal income tax return, partially offset by increases in our liability for uncertain tax positions, as well as lower income in foreign jurisdictions. During the second quarter of 2026, we also recorded a discrete tax benefit related to the completion of our fiscal 2024 Pillar Two filings. The prior-year periods also reflected tax effects associated with the deferred tax liability established for intangible assets recognized in connection with the Exium acquisition. Because we maintain a full valuation allowance against our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, no tax benefit is recognized on forecasted U.S. losses.

Previous wording

Enterprise segment net revenue increased for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, primarily driven by our Pro AV product line of managed switches, which experienced double-digit sales growth in the Americas and EMEA regions, primarily driven by higher average selling prices. Geographically, for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, net revenue from our Enterprise segment increased in Americas and EMEA and decreased in APAC. The declines in APAC reflect the transformation of our go-to-market approach currently underway in the region, which we do not expect to contribute to revenue growth in the near term.

Current wording

Enterprise segment net revenue was relatively flat for the three months ended September 27, 2026, and increased for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. Supply constraints resulting from manufacturing delays at one of our contract manufacturers, related to its challenges in bringing a new factory online rather than component availability, limited Enterprise net revenue during the three- and nine-month periods. We exited the quarter with approximately $18 million of Enterprise backlog for products that were unavailable due to these constraints. For the three-month period, growth in our Pro AV product line of managed switches in the Americas region was offset by declines in the EMEA and APAC regions. The increase for the nine-month period was primarily driven by our Pro AV product line of managed switches, which experienced double-digit sales growth in the Americas and EMEA regions, primarily driven by higher average selling prices. Geographically, net revenue from our Enterprise segment increased in Americas and decreased in EMEA and APAC for the three-month period, and increased in Americas and EMEA and decreased in APAC for the nine-month period. The declines in APAC reflect the transformation of our go-to-market approach currently underway in the region, which we do not expect to contribute to revenue growth in the near term.

Previous wording

Enterprise segment contribution income increased for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to higher net revenue and higher gross margins, mainly driven by a higher mix of our Pro AV product line of managed switches, together with a continuing benefit from a perpetual software license acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. These increases were partially offset by higher operating expenses, primarily driven by increased headcount and related investments as we continue to focus on and shift resources toward growing our Enterprise business.

Current wording

Enterprise segment contribution income decreased slightly for the three months ended September 27, 2026, and increased for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. In both periods, gross margin increased, mainly driven by higher margins across our product lines, including our Pro AV product line of managed switches, which also represented a higher proportion of segment sales, while operating expenses increased, primarily driven by increased headcount and related investments as we continue to focus on and shift resources toward growing our Enterprise business. For the three-month period, the higher operating expenses more than offset the gross margin improvement, while for the nine-month period, the gross margin improvement, together with higher net revenue and a continuing benefit from a perpetual software license acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, more than offset the higher operating expenses.

Previous wording

Consumer segment net revenue decreased for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. The decrease in Consumer net revenue was driven by lower sales of our service provider and related products, consistent with our strategy of harvesting this business, as well as by declines in our core consumer business attributable to continued softness in the broader home networking retail market, including electronics pricing pressures from rising memory costs. These declines were partially offset by growth in our core consumer business, including our premium WiFi 7 portfolio. Geographically, Consumer segment net revenue declined in Americas and APAC and was relatively flat in EMEA for both periods. Given the rising cost of memory and related components, we are prioritizing gross profit over revenue growth in our Consumer business.

Current wording

Consumer segment net revenue decreased for both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. The decreases were driven by lower sales of our service provider and related products of $6.2 million and $19.1 million, respectively, consistent with our strategy of harvesting this business, as well as by declines in our core consumer business, primarily WiFi mesh systems and routers, attributable to continued softness in the broader home networking retail market, including electronics pricing pressures from rising memory costs. Supply constraints noted above also partially limited Consumer net revenue during the three- and nine-month periods. For the nine-month period, these declines were partially offset by growth in sales of our WiFi 7 routers. Geographically, Consumer segment net revenue declined in Americas and EMEA and was relatively flat in APAC for the three-month period, and declined in all three regions for the nine-month period. Given the rising cost of memory and related components, we are prioritizing gross profit over revenue growth in our Consumer business.

Previous wording

Consumer segment recorded contribution losses for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to contribution income in the prior year periods. The movements in both periods were mainly driven by lower net revenue and higher charges for excess or obsolete inventory, partially offset by lower warranty costs for the six-month period. The six-month period also benefited from higher gross margin attributable to a more favorable product mix, including our premium WiFi 7 products.

Current wording

Consumer segment recorded contribution losses for both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to contribution income in the prior year periods. The movements in both periods were mainly driven by lower net revenue and higher product costs associated with memory chip price increases, partially offset by lower warranty costs and lower operating expenses. The nine-month period was also impacted by higher charges for excess or obsolete inventory.

Previous wording

As of June 28, 2026, approximately 35% of our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were outside of the U.S., which are subject to fluctuation based on the settlement of intercompany balances. As we repatriate these funds in accordance with our designation of funds not permanently reinvested outside of the U.S., we will be required to pay income taxes in certain U.S. states and applicable foreign withholding taxes during the period when such repatriation occurs. We have recorded deferred taxes for the tax effect of repatriating the funds to the U.S.

Current wording

Previous wording

Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $2.0 million for the six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year period. Although the net loss increased and movement in working capital used more cash than in the prior year period, these effects were more than offset by higher non-cash charges, principally stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization. Accounts receivable increased to $152.8 million as of June 28, 2026 from $142.0 million as of December 31, 2025, mainly due to the timing of cash receipts and marketing claims processing. Our inventory decreased from $176.5 million as of December 31, 2025 to $174.9 million as of June 28, 2026, mainly due to the timing of purchases. Accounts payable (excluding payables related to property and equipment) increased from $41.6 million as of December 31, 2025 to $53.4 million as of June 28, 2026, primarily due to the timing of inventory receipts and supplier payments.

Current wording

Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year period. The decrease reflected higher adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities, principally related to stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and the provision for excess and obsolete inventory, together with favorable changes in working capital, which collectively more than offset the increase in net loss. Accounts receivable increased to $156.4 million as of September 27, 2026 from $142.0 million as of December 31, 2025, mainly due to the timing of cash receipts and marketing claims processing. Our inventory decreased from $176.5 million as of December 31, 2025 to $169.4 million as of September 27, 2026, mainly due to the timing of purchases. Accounts payable (excluding payables related to property and equipment) increased from $41.6 million as of December 31, 2025 to $48.7 million as of September 27, 2026, primarily due to the timing of inventory receipts and supplier payments.

Previous wording

Net cash provided by investing activities was $14.5 million for the six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to $16.9 million used in the prior year period, primarily due to lower purchase of short-term investments of $19.5 million and the absence of $12.2 million of payments for a business acquisition made in the prior year period.

Current wording

Net cash provided by investing activities was $43.0 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to $26.6 million used in the prior year period, primarily due to lower purchases of short-term investments of $49.4 million and the absence of $12.2 million of payments for a business acquisition made in the prior year period and lower purchases of property and equipment of $7.9 million.

Previous wording

Net cash used in financing activities increased by $23.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2026, compared to the prior year period. The increase in cash used was primarily due to $17.4 million of higher repurchases of our common stock, the absence of $5.3 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options received in the prior year period and $2.5 million of principal payments on the deferred purchase price of an intangible asset acquisition, partially offset by $1.1 million of lower payments for restricted stock unit tax withholdings.

Current wording

Net cash used in financing activities increased by $23.7 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the prior year period. The increase in cash used was primarily due to $12.4 million of higher repurchases of our common stock, $7.8 million of principal payments on the deferred purchase price for acquisitions and the absence of $5.3 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options received in the prior year period, partially offset by $1.1 million of lower payments for restricted stock unit tax withholdings.

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized programs under which we may repurchase shares of our common stock. Under the authorizations, the timing and actual number of shares subject to repurchase are at the discretion of management and are contingent on a number of factors, such as levels of cash generation from operations, cash requirements for acquisitions and the price of our common stock. On April 22, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized an incremental $75.0 million for repurchases of our common stock under the existing repurchase program. As of June 28, 2026, approximately $75.0 million remained authorized for repurchase under the repurchase program. We repurchased, retired and reported, based on trade date, approximately 1.5 million and 0.5 million shares of common stock, at a cost of approximately $32.9 million and $15.0 million under the repurchase authorization during the six months ended June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, respectively. We also withheld and reported, based on trade date, approximately 376,000 shares and 370,000 shares of common stock, at a cost of approximately $8.6 million and $9.7 million during the six months ended June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, respectively, to facilitate the administrative process of withholding and remitting personal income and payroll taxes for individuals receiving Restricted Stock Units.

Previous wording

We have entered into various inventory-related purchase agreements with suppliers. We are exposed to lengthening lead times and increasing costs on various components, certain of which are non-cancelable regardless of lead time, and as a result we have issued purchase orders to supply chain partners beyond contractual termination periods. As of June 28, 2026, we had $67.9 million of purchase obligations which represented short-term non-cancellable inventory-related purchase agreements with suppliers, as compared to $55.3 million as of December 31, 2025. As of June 28, 2026, $231.8 million of purchase orders beyond contractual termination periods remained outstanding. These purchase orders may be cancelled by either party, however we may incur expenses for materials and components, such as chipsets purchased by the supplier to fulfill the purchase order, in the event of cancellation. Expenses incurred in respect of cancelled purchase orders have historically not been significant relative to the original order value.
