In Q3, MPS achieved another significant milestone exceeding $1 billion in quarterly revenue for the first time. Q3 revenue of $1.2 billion was 22.6% higher than the second quarter of 2026 and 63.1% higher than the third quarter of 2025.

During the quarter:

  • Our capacity surpassed $6 billion dollars in annual revenue support. We expect to have $8 billion of capacity in place by the second half of 2027 on our way to $10 billion in support of our rapidly expanding business.

In our enterprise data end market:

  • We saw strong demand across our existing customers which we expect to continue into 2027.
  • In addition, using our in-house developed AI design tools we significantly expanded our customer base in traditional areas, as well as in new applications such as desktop AI designs.

In addition to our rapid Enterprise Data growth:

  • In Automotive, we received first orders for our 48V power solutions and expect design wins for 48V and Zonal architectures to be a driver of growth in 2027.
  • We started ramping robotics solutions with sensor and motor control products across multiple geographies.
  • We landed our first large data converter design win which we expect to ramp 2027.
  • We continued to increase our SAM with the ramp of our high speed memory products.
  • We continued to build out our high voltage portfolio and began sampling GAN based solutions for use in 800V data center architectures complementing our existing SiC based designs.

Our diversified market strategy remains unchanged:

  • MPS focuses on innovation and solving our customers’ most challenging problems.
  • We consistently invest in new technologies that open new end markets and applications.
  • We continue to transform from a chip-only semiconductor supplier to a full service solution provider.
  • We continuously expand and diversify our global supply chain allowing us to capture future growth opportunities, maintain supply stability, and rapidly adapt to market changes as they occur.

“Overall, we see accelerated growth. Our diversified growth strategy is paying off,” said Michael Hsing, CEO and founder of MPS.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings commentary contains references to certain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP other income, net, and non-GAAP income before income taxes differ from net income, net income per share, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, other income, net, and income before income taxes determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, which include stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes in relation to the stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, net deferred compensation plan expense, and related tax effects. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan income (expense). Non-GAAP operating income excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and deferred compensation plan expense. Non-GAAP other income, net excludes the effect of deferred compensation plan expense (income). Non-GAAP income before income taxes excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and net deferred compensation plan expense. Projected non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses, and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Projected non-GAAP operating expenses exclude the effect of stock-based compensation and related expenses. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. MPS utilizes both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to assess what it believes to be its core operating performance and to evaluate and manage its internal business and assist in making financial operating decisions. MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an alternative presentation useful to investors’ understanding of MPS’s core operating results and trends. Additionally, MPS believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures, together with GAAP measures, provides investors with an additional dimension of comparability to similar companies. However, investors should be aware that non-GAAP financial measures utilized by other companies are not likely to be comparable in most cases to the non-GAAP financial measures used by MPS. See the GAAP to Non-GAAP reconciliations in the tables set forth below.
