Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd delivered very strong results for the three months ended January 31, 2026. Revenue reached $407.0 million, up from $135.0 million a year earlier, driven mainly by a surge in Active Electrical Cable shipments to hyperscale data center customers. Net income jumped to $157.1 million from $29.4 million, and gross margin improved to 68.5% from 63.6%, reflecting scale benefits.

For the first nine months of fiscal 2026, revenue rose to $898.1 million and net income to $303.2 million. Operating cash flow increased sharply to $282.1 million, helping lift cash and cash equivalents to $1.22 billion. Credo completed a $750 million at-the-market equity program, raising $736.3 million net from 4.8 million new shares, and acquired Hyperlume for $92.0 million to add microLED-based optical interconnect technology.

The balance sheet shows $2.04 billion in total assets and $1.85 billion in shareholders’ equity with modest liabilities, though customer concentration remains high and the company has significant manufacturing and technology purchase commitments tied to its AI-focused growth strategy.

Positive

  • Rapid revenue and profit growth: Revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2026 rose to $407.0 million from $135.0 million, and net income increased to $157.1 million from $29.4 million, driven mainly by strong Active Electrical Cable demand from hyperscale data center customers.
  • Margin expansion and strong cash generation: Gross margin improved to 68.5% from 63.6%, and operating cash flow for the nine months climbed to $282.1 million, supporting a cash and cash equivalents balance of $1.22 billion and a strong equity-heavy capital structure.
  • Capital raise and strategic acquisition: Completion of a $750 million at-the-market program delivered $736.3 million in net proceeds, while the $92.0 million Hyperlume acquisition adds microLED-based optical interconnect technology to strengthen Credo’s AI-oriented connectivity portfolio.

Negative

  • High customer concentration: For the three months ended January 31, 2026, one contracting customer accounted for 48% of revenue and another for 39%, and by end-customer profile a single customer contributed 32% of revenue, increasing dependence on a small number of large buyers.
  • Share dilution from equity issuance and compensation: Ordinary shares outstanding rose from 171.2 million to 184.2 million, reflecting 4.8 million shares issued under the at-the-market offering and significant share-based compensation expense of $132.9 million over nine months.
  • Large purchase and capacity commitments: The company has $175.0 million of non-cancelable purchase obligations and approximately $114.5 million of additional near-term purchase orders, plus $28.8 million in refundable deposits tied to reserved manufacturing capacity, increasing fixed commitments alongside growth.

Insights

Explosive AI-driven growth with higher margins and strategic tech expansion.

Credo is experiencing a step-change in scale. Revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2026 was $407.0 million, versus $135.0 million a year earlier, primarily from ramping Active Electrical Cables into hyperscale data centers. Net income rose to $157.1 million, with gross margin at 68.5%, showing strong pricing and manufacturing leverage.

For the nine months, revenue reached $898.1 million and net income $303.2 million, turning the business into a highly profitable AI connectivity supplier. Customer concentration is significant, with one contracting customer at 48% and another at 39% of quarterly revenue, so demand from a few hyperscale programs is critical.

The $92.0 million Hyperlume acquisition adds microLED-based optical interconnect intellectual property and generated $69.1 million of goodwill and a $17.2 million intangible asset. This extends Credo’s system-level connectivity portfolio for future AI infrastructure deployments. Over the coming fiscal periods, investors will look to subsequent filings to see how quickly Hyperlume technology is commercialized within Credo’s product mix.

Balance sheet transformed by cash generation and a large equity raise.

Credo’s cash position strengthened dramatically. Cash and cash equivalents rose to $1.22 billion from $236.3 million at May 3, 2025, supported by $282.1 million in operating cash flow for the nine months and net proceeds of $736.3 million from an at-the-market share offering of 4.8 million ordinary shares.

Total assets reached $2.04 billion, shareholders’ equity $1.85 billion, and liabilities remained relatively modest at $188.5 million, leaving the company effectively ungeared. However, share-based compensation of $132.9 million over nine months and ATM issuance increased the share count from 171.2 million to 184.2 million, meaning existing holders experienced dilution alongside the balance sheet improvement.

The company has $175.0 million in non-cancelable purchase obligations through fiscal 2029 and approximately $114.5 million of additional near-term purchase orders with manufacturing partners. Reserved manufacturing capacity and refundable deposits of $28.8 million support future growth but commit Credo to substantial volume. Future filings for periods after January 31, 2026 will show how sustained cash generation and AI demand offset these obligations over time.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements relating to our expectations, projections, beliefs, and prospects, which are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “projects,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” "forecast," "target," “predict,” “future,” “may,” “can,” “will,” “would” or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. You should read these statements carefully because they may relate to future expectations around growth, strategy and anticipated trends in our business, contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other “forward-looking” information. These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations, estimates, assumptions, and projections about future events and are applicable only as of the dates of such statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified herein, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other reports we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted include, but are not limited to:
our expectations regarding our ability to address market and customer demands and to timely develop new or enhanced solutions to meet those demands;
anticipated trends, challenges and growth in our business and the markets in which we operate, including pricing expectations;
our expectations regarding our revenue, revenue mix, average selling prices, gross margin, and expenses;
our expectations regarding dependence on a limited number of customers and end customers;
our customer relationships and our ability to retain and expand our customer relationships and to achieve design wins;
our expectations regarding the success, cost, and timing of new products;
the size and growth potential of the markets for our solutions, and our ability to serve and expand our presence in those markets;
our expectations regarding competition in our existing and future markets;
the impact a pandemic, epidemic, or other outbreak of disease may in the future have on our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as the businesses of our suppliers and customers;
our expectations regarding regulatory developments in the United States and foreign countries;
our expectations regarding the performance of, and our relationships with, our third-party suppliers and manufacturers;
our expectations regarding our ability to attract and retain key personnel; and
the accuracy of our estimates regarding capital requirements and needs for additional financing.
The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as may be required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements or the reasons that results could differ from these forward-looking statements. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results,
3


levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or will occur.

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd was formed as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands in September 2014. Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd directly owns Credo Technology Group Ltd., which owns, directly and indirectly, all of the shares of its subsidiaries in mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Canada and the United States (U.S.). References to the “Company” in these notes refer to Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, unless otherwise specified.
The Company’s mission is to transform connectivity at scale through fast, reliable and energy-efficient system solutions. The Company’s high-speed copper and optical interconnect products deliver industry-leading power and performance at up to 1.6T to meet the ever-expanding data infrastructure demands of AI. The Company’s product portfolio includes ZeroFlap (ZF) Active Electrical Cables (AECs) and ZF optical transceivers, OmniConnect memory solutions and a suite of retimers and DSPs for optical and copper Ethernet and PCIe, all leveraging the Company’s PILOT diagnostic and analytics software platform. The Company’s innovations enable our customers to connect the systems that connect the world.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (US GAAP) applicable to interim periods, under the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the SEC. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s fiscal year 2025 audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments, that are considered necessary for fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Operating results for the periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.
The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to April 30. Its fiscal year ending May 2, 2026 (fiscal year 2026) is a 52-week fiscal year. The Company’s fiscal year ended May 3, 2025 (fiscal year 2025) was a 53-week fiscal year, with the first fiscal quarter containing 14 weeks.
At-The-Market (ATM) Offering
In October 2025, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC related to the sale from time to time of the Company’s ordinary shares for an aggregate offering price of up to $750 million.
During the nine months ended January 31, 2026, the Company completed the ATM offering and received $736.3 million in net proceeds through an issuance of 4.8 million ordinary shares. The total issuance costs were $13.7 million.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The Company believes that other than the accounting policies as described below, there have been no significant changes to the items disclosed in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies,” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025.
Business Combinations
The Company allocates the fair value of the purchase consideration of its business acquisitions to the tangible assets, liabilities and intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development (IPR&D), based on their estimated fair values under the acquisition method of accounting. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. IPR&D is initially capitalized at fair value as an intangible asset with an indefinite life and assessed for impairment thereafter. When an IPR&D project is completed, the IPR&D is reclassified as an amortizable intangible asset and amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred.
Use of Estimates
11

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions and beliefs of what could occur in the future, given the available information. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, write-down for excess and obsolete inventories, the standalone selling price for each distinct performance obligation included in customer contracts with multiple performance obligations, variable consideration from revenue contracts, the realization of tax assets and estimates of tax reserves and impairment of long-lived assets. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements. In the current macroeconomic environment, these estimates require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, these estimates may change materially in future periods.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period balances were reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. None of these reclassifications had an impact on reported net income or cash flows for any of the periods presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and may be applied on a retrospective or prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income— Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires disclosure of, in interim and annual reporting periods, additional information about certain expenses in the financial statements. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and may be applied on a retrospective or prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, providing all entities with a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of electing the practical expedient and the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
3. Concentrations
Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash is placed in major financial institutions around the world. The Company’s cash deposits exceed insured limits. Short-term investments are subject to counterparty risk up to the amount presented on the balance sheet.
Historically, a relatively small number of customers have accounted for a significant portion of the Company’s revenue. The particular customers which account for revenue concentration have varied from period-to-period as a result of the volumes and prices at which the customers have recently bought the Company’s products. These variations are expected to continue in the foreseeable future.

Remaining Performance Obligations
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations as of January 31, 2026 were approximately $31.8 million which the Company expects to recognize over the next 12 months.
Customer Warrant
As of January 31, 2026, Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC (Holder) has exercised all Customer Warrant shares, resulting in a net issuance of 3.8 million shares and the Customer Warrant is no longer outstanding.
5. Business Combination
On September 29, 2025, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interest of Hyperlume, Inc. (Hyperlume), a developer of miniature light-emitting diode (microLED)-based optical interconnect technology for chip-to-chip communication, for a total purchase consideration of $92.0 million. Total purchase consideration is attributable to cash consideration of $88.7 million and cash settlement of vested share-based payment awards of $3.3 million by Hyperlume. This acquisition was primarily intended to expand the Company’s comprehensive portfolio of end-to-end system-level connectivity solutions with Hyperlume’s cutting-edge microLED technology to address the future of artificial intelligence-driven data infrastructure deployments.
The factors contributing to the recognition of goodwill were based upon the Company’s conclusion that there are strategic and synergistic benefits that are expected to be realized from the acquisition. Goodwill recorded for the

Hyperlume acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has one reportable segment and accordingly, there is no goodwill assignment based on reporting units.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP requirements for business combinations, the Company allocated the fair value of the purchase consideration to the tangible assets, liabilities and IPR&D, generally based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. IPR&D is initially capitalized at fair value as an intangible asset with an indefinite life and assessed for impairment thereafter. When an IPR&D project is completed, the IPR&D is reclassified as an amortizable intangible asset and amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life. The Company’s valuation assumptions of acquired assets and assumed liabilities require significant estimates, especially with respect to IPR&D intangible assets. The functional currency of the acquired business is Canadian dollars, and the assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at each fiscal quarter-end period. The differences for goodwill and intangible asset between purchase price allocation and balance sheet result from currency translation rate changes.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the periods such costs are incurred and were not material for the periods presented.

6. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity.
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The Company measures the fair value of money market funds using Level 1 inputs. The Company’s certificates of deposit are classified as held-to-maturity securities as the Company intends to hold until their maturity dates. The certificates of deposit are valued using Level 2 inputs. Pricing sources may include industry standard data providers,

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company has two manufacturing supply capacity reservation agreements with the assembly subcontractors as of January 31, 2026. Under these arrangements, the Company has paid refundable deposits to the suppliers in exchange for reserved manufacturing production capacity over the term of the agreement, which approximates two to five years. In addition, the Company committed to certain purchase levels that were in line with the capacity reserved. If the Company does not meet the purchase level commitment, the agreement requires the Company to pay a fee equal to the difference between the actual purchase and the purchase commitment, up to the value of refundable deposits made.
The Company currently estimates that it has made purchase level commitments of at least $157.5 million for the remainder of fiscal year 2026 through fiscal year 2028 under the capacity reservation agreement. Such purchase commitments are included in the preceding table.
As of January 31, 2026, the Company has refundable deposits of $28.8 million of which $2.7 million was recorded in other current assets and $26.1 million was recorded in other non-current assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Warranty Obligations
The Company’s products generally carry a standard one-year warranty. The Company’s warranty expense was not material in the periods presented.
Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into agreements that contain certain indemnification obligations of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, investors, directors, officers, employees and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, certain losses arising out of the Company’s breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. These indemnification obligations may survive termination of the underlying agreement and the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions may not be subject to maximum loss limitations. The Company has not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification obligations. Accordingly, the Company had no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of January 31, 2026 and May 3, 2025.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be a party to various litigation claims in the ordinary course of business. Legal fees and other costs associated with such actions are expensed as incurred.

$52,160 $16,190 $132,939 $49,493 
In connection with the Hyperlume acquisition, the Company issued 87 thousand RSUs under its 2021 long-term incentive plan in replacement for the unvested options under Hyperlume’s equity incentive plan. The RSUs retain the same vesting conditions as the unvested options that they replaced. The Company also issued 132 thousand restricted shares of the Company to one of the founders of Hyperlume and 132 thousand restricted shares of a newly formed subsidiary of the Company that are exchangeable into restricted shares of the Company to the other founder of Hyperlume. The restricted shares were issued in exchange for the founders’ outstanding equity interests in Hyperlume and vest on a quarterly basis, subject to continued employment with the Company over the next 4 years.
Both RSUs and restricted shares were measured at the acquisition date’s fair value of $146.01 per share and the fair value of those shares represent post-acquisition share-based compensation expense that will be recognized as these employees provide service over the remaining vesting periods of up to 4 years.
11. Income Taxes
The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, excluding zero rate jurisdictions and adjusted for discrete items, if any, that arise during the period. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual effective tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment in such period. The Company’s quarterly tax provision and estimate of its annual effective tax rate, is subject to variation due to several factors, including variability in accurately predicting its pre-tax income or loss and the mix of jurisdictions to which they relate, intercompany transactions, changes in tax laws, the applicability of special tax regimes, changes in how we do business and discrete items.
Provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026 and February 1, 2025 was as follows (in thousands except percentages):
Three Months Ended
Nine Months Ended
January 31, 2026February 1, 2025% ChangeJanuary 31, 2026February 1, 2025% Change

Effective tax rate1.2 %2.5 %1.4 %9.7 %
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026 differs from the same period in the prior year primarily because the percentage increase in consolidated pre-tax income exceeded the percentage increase in pre-tax income generated in tax-paying jurisdictions, which resulted in higher income tax expenses and a lower effective tax rate for the current periods compared to the prior-year periods.

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
During the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026, there were no material changes to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits and the Company does not expect any significant changes in the next 12 months.
On July 4, 2025, the United States enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), which changes or makes permanent certain tax laws for corporations. Currently, the Company does not expect the provisions of the OBBBA to have a material impact on its effective tax rate or total provision for income taxes.
In connection with the Hyperlume acquisition, the Company recognized a deferred tax liability of $4.6 million in September 2025 related to the acquired IPR&D intangible asset, which is not deductible for income tax purposes.
12. Net Income Per Share
The Company reports both basic net income per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period and diluted net income per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding and potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the period. Net income per share for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026 and February 1, 2025, respectively, was determined as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties as described under the heading “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
At Credo, our mission is to transform connectivity at scale through fast, reliable and energy-efficient system solutions. The Company’s high-speed copper and optical interconnect products deliver industry-leading power and performance at up to 1.6T to meet the ever-expanding data infrastructure demands of AI. The Company’s product portfolio includes ZeroFlap (ZF) Active Electrical Cables (AECs) and ZF optical transceivers, OmniConnect memory solutions and a suite of retimers and DSPs for optical and copper Ethernet and PCIe, all leveraging the PILOT diagnostic and analytics software platform. The Company innovations enable our customers to connect the systems that connect the world.
Data generation has increased dramatically over the past ten years, creating new and complicated challenges in both circuit and system design. Our proprietary SerDes and DSP technologies enable us to achieve similar performance to leading competitors’ products but at a lower cost and more highly available legacy node (n-1 advantage). Beyond power and performance, Credo continues to innovate to address customers’ system level requirements. We partner with Microsoft on our HiWire Switch AEC and open-source implementation that helps realize Microsoft’s vision for a highly reliable network-managed dual-Top-of-Rack (ToR) architecture (a network architecture design in which computing equipment located within the same or an adjacent rack are, for redundancy, connected to two in-rack network switches, which are, in turn, connected to aggregation switches via fiber optic cables), overcome complex and slow legacy enterprise approaches, simplify deployment and improve connection reliability in the data center.
The multibillion-dollar data infrastructure market that we serve is driven largely by hyperscale data centers (hyperscalers), as well as general compute, AI/ML infrastructure, multi-service operators (MSOs) and mobile network operators (MNOs). The demands for increased bandwidth, improved power and cost efficiency and heightened security have simultaneously and dramatically expanded as work, education and entertainment have rapidly digitized across myriad endpoint users.
We design, market and sell product, software and IP solutions. We help define industry conventions and standards within the markets we target by collaborating with technology leaders and standards bodies. We contract with a variety of manufacturing partners to build our products based on our proprietary SerDes and DSP technologies. We develop standard solutions we can sell broadly to our end markets and also develop tailored solutions designed to address specific customer needs. Once developed, these tailored solutions can generally be broadly leveraged across our portfolio and we are able to sell the part or license the IP to the broader market.
During the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026, we generated $407.0 million and $898.1 million in revenue, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended February 1, 2025, we generated $135.0 million and $266.8 million in revenue, respectively. During the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026, we generated $157.1 million and $303.2 million in net income, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended February 1, 2025, we generated $29.4 million and $15.6 million in net income, respectively.
We derive the substantial majority of our revenue from a limited number of customers. We anticipate we will continue to derive a significant portion of our revenue from a limited number of customers for the foreseeable future. We expect that as our products are more widely adopted and as our number of customers increase, customer concentration will decrease.
We sell our products to hyperscalers, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), original design manufacturers (ODMs) and optical module manufacturers, as well as to companies in the enterprise and HPC markets. We work closely and have engagements with industry-leading companies across these segments. A relatively small number of customers have historically accounted for and continue to account for a significant portion of our revenue. We report revenue by customer in our financial statement disclosure based on the contracting parties who place purchase orders
22


or sign revenue contracts with us. See Note 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, certain of our end customers have their contract manufacturing partners place orders with us. As a result, the contract manufacturers, rather than the end customers, are reported as our customers for financial reporting purposes. As a supplement to our financial statement footnote disclosure and to provide further insight into our end customer concentration, the following table summarizes our revenue by customer as a percentage of revenue based on end customer profile, rather than based on the contracting parties who place purchase orders or sign revenue contracts with us:

* Less than 10% of total revenue.
Our Business Model
We are a product-focused business with a strong foundation in IP, pioneering comprehensive connectivity solutions that deliver bandwidth, scalability and end-to-end signal integrity for next-generation platforms. We also develop IP solutions to address the specific and complex needs of our customers. We earn revenue from these IP solutions primarily through licensing fees and royalties.
We utilize a fabless business model, working with a network of third parties to manufacture, assemble and test our connectivity products. This approach allows us to focus our engineering and design resources on our core competencies and to control our fixed costs and capital expenditures.
We employ a two-pronged sales strategy targeting both the end users of our products, as well as the suppliers of our end users. By engaging directly with the end user, we are able to better understand the needs of our customers and cater our solutions to their most pressing connectivity requirements.
This strategy has enabled us to become the preferred vendor to a number of our customers who, in turn, in some cases, require their suppliers, OEMs, ODMs and optical module manufacturers to utilize our solutions.

Provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026 increased by $1.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively, compared to the same period in fiscal year 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher pre-tax income generated in tax-paying jurisdictions during the current year relative to the same period in fiscal year 2025.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our activities consist primarily of selling our products, licensing our IP, providing product and IP engineering services and conducting research and development of our products and technology. As of January 31, 2026 and May 3, 2025, we had $1,220.5 million and $236.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, respectively, and working capital of $1,621.4 million and $605.8 million, respectively. Our principal use of cash is to fund our operations, invest in research and development and acquisitions of complementary businesses or technologies to support our growth. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion of our cash requirements under non-cancelable purchase obligations.
During the nine months ended January 31, 2026, the Company received $736.3 million in net proceeds through the issuance of 4.8 million ordinary shares under the At-The-Market Offering. See Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion of our arrangement under the At-The-Market Offering. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and other components of working capital will be sufficient to meet our needs for at least the next 12 months and in the longer term. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, the timing and extent of our sales and marketing and research and development expenditures, customer demand and the continuing market acceptance of our solutions. In the event that we need to borrow funds or issue additional equity, we cannot be assured that any such additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when we need it, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Except for the accounting policy for business combinations that was updated as a result of our acquisition of the Hyperlume business, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to those disclosed under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025. In the current macroeconomic environment, our estimates could require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. We continue to monitor and assess our estimates in light of developments, and as events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, our estimates may change materially in future periods.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
For a discussion of market risks, refer to Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025. During the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026, there were no material changes or developments that would materially alter the market risk assessment performed as of May 3, 2025.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
27


We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our “internal control over financial reporting,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the quarter ended January 31, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Credo have been detected.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not presently a party to any litigation the outcome of which, we believe, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on us. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and the trading price of our ordinary shares. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 2025.
