Forward guidance

Ambarella anticipates continued positive momentum into the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, projecting revenue between $81.0 million and $87.0 million, with non-GAAP gross margin expected to be between 61.0% and 62.5%.

Tailwinds

  • Revenue is expected to be between $81.0 million and $87.0 million for Q1 FY26.
  • Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be between 61.0% and 62.5% for Q1 FY26.
  • Anticipated mid to high teens revenue growth in fiscal 2026.
  • Growth led by 5nm products, including ongoing ramp in CV5 and CV7 families.

Headwinds

  • Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be between $50.0 million and $53.0 million for Q1 FY26.
  • Reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin and operating expenses guidance to GAAP is not available without unreasonable efforts due to high variability and low visibility of excluded charges.
  • The variability of excluded charges is expected to have a significant and potentially unpredictable impact on future GAAP financial results.
  • The company's forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including global economic and political conditions.
  • Future performance could differ materially from predictions due to various factors, including market demands and competition.
