Historical Context

| Oct 20 | Licensing expansion | Positive | +1.1% | Expansion of IP licensing practice with large expected revenue contribution. |

Positive earnings and IP licensing news have recently coincided with strong positive price reactions, while conference-call scheduling headlines have seen modest moves.
Over the last six months, Vicor has reported strong financial momentum. Q2 2025 revenue was $141.0M with net income of $41.2M, followed by Q3 2025 product and licensing revenue of $110.4M and net income of $28.3M. An expanded IP licensing practice is expected to contribute nearly $300M through 2026. Conference-call announcements in July and October 2025 produced only modest price changes. Today’s conference-participation news fits the pattern of routine investor-relations events alongside a fundamentally stronger backdrop.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights Vicor’s participation in the 28th Annual Needham Growth Conference on January 16, 2026, including a discussion with equity research at 11:00 a.m. ET. It reinforces ongoing engagement with the analyst and investor community rather than introducing new financial metrics. In light of recent strong earnings and an expanded IP licensing practice, investors may watch for any incremental qualitative commentary from management, while remembering that conference appearances alone do not change previously reported fundamentals.
