Arteris (Nasdaq: AIP) reported second quarter 2026 revenue of $24.1 million, up 46% year-over-year, driven by licensing, support, maintenance and higher variable royalties. Annual Contract Value (ACV) plus royalties exited the quarter at a record $99.5 million, up 44%, with Remaining Performance Obligation rising 36% to $135 million.

Trailing-twelve-month variable royalties reached $8.6 million, up 65% year-over-year. GAAP operating loss widened to $13.9 million, while Non-GAAP operating loss was $4.6 million. Net loss was $14.1 million (Non-GAAP net loss $4.7 million). The company ended June 30, 2026 with $93.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and used an at-the-market equity program to raise $72.5 million in the first half.

For third quarter 2026, Arteris estimates ACV plus royalties of $99.0–$103.0 million, revenue of $24.0–$25.0 million, and Non-GAAP operating loss of $1.0–$3.0 million. Full year 2026 guidance calls for ACV plus royalties of $102.0–$106.0 million, revenue of $95.0–$98.0 million, Non-GAAP operating loss of $7.0–$10.0 million, and free cash flow of $5.0–$9.0 million.

Key Terms

annual contract value, remaining performance obligation, non-gaap financial measures, at-the-market offering
4 terms
annual contract value financial
"new highs in Annual Contract Value plus royalties exiting the quarter at $99.5 million"
Annual contract value is the amount of revenue a company expects from a single customer contract over a 12‑month period, adjusted when contracts span shorter or longer terms. Investors treat it like the annual “rent” from a subscription: it makes different deals comparable, helps forecast predictable revenue, and highlights whether customer accounts are becoming more or less valuable — useful for judging growth, stability, and churn risk.
remaining performance obligation financial
"Remaining Performance Obligation (RPO) of $135 million, up 36% year-over-year"
Remaining performance obligation is the amount of work or services a company still needs to deliver to a customer under a contract. It matters because it shows how much revenue the company can expect to earn in the future from that contract, helping investors understand the company's ongoing business and growth potential.
non-gaap financial measures financial
"Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP operating loss"
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.
at-the-market offering financial
"Proceeds from issuance of common stock under the at-the-market offering"
An at-the-market offering is a method companies use to sell new shares of stock directly into the open market over time, rather than all at once. This allows them to raise money gradually, similar to selling small pieces of a product instead of a large batch. For investors, it means the company can access funding more flexibly, but it may also increase the supply of shares and influence the stock’s price.

CAMPBELL, Calif., Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arteris, Inc. (Nasdaq: AIP), a leading provider of semiconductor technology for accelerating innovation in the AI era, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026 and provided estimated third quarter and updated full year 2026 guidance.

“In the second quarter we delivered multiple record-breaking results, including new highs in Annual Contract Value plus royalties exiting the quarter at $99.5 million, up 44% year-over-year, and record revenue, royalties and Remaining Performance Obligation,” said K. Charles Janac, President and Chief Executive Officer of Arteris. “Customer design activity remained strong, with number of design starts up 21% over the trailing-twelve-months compared to the previous trailing-twelve-months, as the majority of new designs now incorporate some form of AI compute. Data center chip and chiplet development remains a key growth driver, with enterprise computing averaging 29% of our Annual Contract Value plus royalties over the past four quarters and AI infrastructure deals among our largest in the quarter. With this momentum, we believe we remain well positioned to support our customers as they innovate across data centers, edge devices, and physical AI systems in the years ahead,” concluded Janac.

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue of $24.1 million, up 46% year-over-year

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial results, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to understand and evaluate our core performance. These non-GAAP measures, which may be different than similarly-titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define "Non-GAAP gross profit" and "Non-GAAP gross margin" as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin, respectively, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense included in cost of revenue and amortization of acquired intangible assets included in cost of revenue. We define “Non-GAAP loss from operations” as our GAAP loss from operations adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related costs, which include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, other professional or consulting fees, integration costs and changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration related to our acquisition of Cycuity. We define “Non-GAAP net loss” as our net loss adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related costs.

We define “Non-GAAP net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted”, as our Non-GAAP net loss divided by our GAAP weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period on a basic or diluted basis, respectively. Management uses this non-GAAP measure to evaluate the performance of our business on a comparable basis from period to period.

The above items are excluded from our Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP loss from operations and Non-GAAP net loss because these items are non-cash in nature, or are not indicative of our core operating performance, and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP loss from operations and Non-GAAP net loss provide useful supplemental information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance.

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment. We believe that free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors, even if negative, about the amount of cash provided by (used in) our operations other than that used for investments in property and equipment.

Other Business Metrics

Annual Contract Value (ACV) – we define Annual Contract Value for an individual customer agreement as the total fixed fees under the agreement divided by the number of years in the agreement term. Our total ACV is the aggregate ACVs for all our customers as measured at a given point in time. Total fixed fees includes licensing, support and maintenance and other fixed fees under IP licensing or software licensing agreements but excludes variable revenue derived from licensing agreements with customers, particularly royalties. We define ACV plus royalties as ACV plus the trailing-twelve-months variable royalties and other revenue.

Confirmed Design Starts – we define Confirmed Design Starts as when customers confirm their commencement of new semiconductor designs using our interconnect IP and notify us. Confirmed Design Starts is a metric management uses to assess the activity level of our customers in terms of the number of new semiconductor designs that are started using our interconnect IP in a given period. We believe that the number of Confirmed Design Starts is an important indicator of the growth of our business and future royalty revenue trends.
