Capacity Expansion and Manufacturing Footprint Optimization
Doubled output/capacity in Philippines and Mexico, completed Thailand factory fit-up (expected to deliver >$1B of annual revenue-generating capacity when built out), and exited remaining China factory to optimize footprint.
Product and Design-Win Momentum
26 new product launches in 2025, multiple confirmed design wins across semiconductor (Everest, EVOS, NavX adoption) and data center (AI rack applications) with several programs ramping to volume in 2026.
Raised Data Center Growth Outlook & 2026 Guidance
Management raised 2026 data center revenue growth outlook to >30% (from 25-30%) and projects 2026 revenue growth in the high teens overall. Q1 2026 revenue guide is ~$500M ± $20M with Q1 non-GAAP EPS ~ $1.94 ± $0.25.
Capital Discipline and Investment
FY 2025 CapEx was $107M (6% of revenue) to support capacity expansion; Q4 CapEx $38M. Management expects 2026 CapEx at or around Q4 levels to enable >$2.5B capacity in existing footprint plus Thailand build-out.
