U.S. All Stars Conference summary
22 Sep, 2026Business performance and growth outlook
Achieved seven consecutive quarters of accelerating year-over-year growth, with 41% year-over-year growth anticipated for the current quarter.
Growth is now broad-based across all end markets and geographies, with industrial, ATE, Aerospace & Defense, and data center segments leading.
Design win pipeline has grown by double digits in recent years, with 2026 tracking above 2025 levels, especially in data center and Aerospace & Defense.
Confident in sustaining double-digit growth into 2027, supported by strong bookings, backlog, and design wins.
Mass market/broad market business, about 15% of industrial, is above corporate gross margin average and is recovering.
End market and segment dynamics
Aerospace & Defense business nearly doubled to a $2 billion annualized run rate, with expectations for double-digit growth over the next decade.
ATE business at a $1 billion annualized run rate, benefiting from increased tester complexity driven by AI/data center infrastructure build-out.
Energy infrastructure/systems business at a $500 million run rate, leveraging battery management and signal chain expertise for data center and grid applications.
Data center segment at a $2 billion run rate, split evenly between power and optical, with power expected to outpace optical in future growth.
Automotive segment continues to outgrow unit sales by 15% over five years due to share and content gains in automated driving and immersive cabin systems.
Inventory, supply chain, and pricing
Inventory levels are being consciously increased, but rapid sell-through keeps channel inventories below target; no broad customer inventory replenishment yet.
Visibility into future bookings has improved, aiding supply planning and wafer starts.
Two price increases implemented in 2026 to offset persistent inflation, with the latest applied broadly across all customers.
No further price increases planned unless input costs rise materially; pricing actions are for cost recovery, not margin expansion.
