Destruction of strong income and financial progress SMTC

The adjusted EPS company amounted to $ 0.40 per share, which is 25% higher than analysts by 0.32 US dollars. Sales amounted to $ 251 million, which is almost $ 2 million higher than expected. The sales guide for the financial quarter of 2026 was slightly lower than the expectations.
Nevertheless, the adjusted management of EPS was almost 9% higher than expected at the middle point. The fiscal year of the company for a year is ahead of the calendar year, so this management corresponds to its next quarterly results.
In general, Fiscal 2025 was a very good year for SemTech in many respects. Although the growth of sales of the company throughout the year was not incredible, by only 5%, growth increased significantly in the fourth quarter, which increased by almost 30% compared to the quarter of the previous year. Increasing profitability was a great victory for SemTech. Its adjusted gross profit increased by 430 basic points in the fourth quarter from the previous quarter, and its adjusted operating margin increased by more than 1000 basic points.

Expansion of copper Semtech: Connect more than just data processing centers
The solution to the problems associated with the Semtech Copperedge products is the key to understanding its path. The company planned to see a significant income from these products in 2026 from the partnership with NVIDIA. A significant reduction in this partnership has led to a mass sale discussed above.
SemTech has provided encouraging news about Copperedge’s portfolio. Even with the failure of NVIDIA, the company is talking with more than 20 potential customers for Copperedge. These include hypercalists, manufacturers of switches and suppliers of data centers cables. Copperedge is a semiconductor used to increase the integrity of the signal of active copper cables (ACC).
These cables can provide many advantages compared to traditional copper cables. This includes the ability to maintain a signal quality with high throughput, but at the same time much longer. This provides a more flexible connection between data centers servers. Copperedge essentially increases the transmitted signal through ACC, allowing this advanced length. The company also expands its proposals for Copperedge to connect components on each server.
The company expects the demand for Copperedge from its NVIDIA anchor client to lag behind the previous grades over the next three -four quarters. This means that demand still exists, but the temporary scale for receiving orders has been significantly expanded. The company still expects NVIDIA will use Copperedge in the development of a server stand for the future generation. In addition, the company can still pick up other customers at the same time.
