Insights

Equity Analyst

Q3 shows small revenue growth, continued GAAP losses, and design‑win momentum underpinning management's 2026 growth target.

Revenue rose to $15.6 million in Q3 2025 from $14.8 million year‑ago, and to $45.0 million for the first nine months versus $43.6 million prior year. The company reported a GAAP net loss of $2.8 million ($0.49 per share) in the quarter and $8.9 million ($1.57 per share) for the first nine months; non‑GAAP losses were smaller but still negative. These facts show revenue expansion is present but profitability remains below breakeven this year.

Management highlights operational catalysts: eight Design Wins in 2025 to date, two PQC‑related Wins, and two Edge Wins, which it links to a projection of double‑digit growth in 2026 and a longer‑term ambition of EPS above $3 on annual revenues of $150–$160 million. Guidance for Q4 2025 is revenue of $15–$16 million. The business mechanism is clear: convert Design Wins into revenue scale; current results show early revenue benefit but not yet profit leverage.

Risks and dependencies include conversion timing from Design Wins to recognized sales and the pace at which those wins drive margins; the release provides no explicit timeline or conversion rates. Watch the fourth‑quarter revenue range and management's 2026 conversion rate: progress from Design Wins into booked orders and any change in per‑share loss or profitability metrics over the next four quarters. Near‑term monitorables: Q4 revenue relative to the stated $15–$16 million range and any additional disclosed Design Wins or concrete order confirmations through 2026.

-  Strategic PQC-related and Edge design wins expected to lead to double digit growth in 2026 and beyond -

Comments of Management  

Liron Eizenman, Silicom's President and CEO, commented, "The third quarter was another period of strong execution according to our strategic plan, marked by exciting Design Win momentum: eight Design Wins already during 2025, surpassing the lower end of our 2025 target range and just one short of the upper end. This, combined with our on-target achievement of project milestones and forward progress with pipeline opportunities, leads us to continue projecting double-digit growth in 2026 and beyond, supporting the ultimate target of our strategic plan: an EPS above $3 on annual revenues of $150 to $160 million."

Mr. Eizenman continued, "We were particularly excited to achieve our second PQC (Post-Quantum Cryptography)-related Win within just a few months. Although quantum computers will not be widely available for several years, suppliers of communications equipment and services must plan now in order to defend effectively against 'harvest now, decrypt later' attack strategies. The fact that we already offer a mature PQC-ready solution differentiates us clearly as an advanced technology partner, bringing us interest from both equipment suppliers and service providers.

"In parallel, our two Edge-related Wins during the quarter – one with a long-term customer and the other with a new client – demonstrate again the value of our broad portfolio and our sterling reputation as a trusted partner. Design Wins such as all of these will be the basis for the strong growth we have projected for the future."

Mr. Eizenman concluded, "As we move into 2026, we expect to see many more opportunities in our funnel transform into Design Wins, along with numerous new opportunities for all of our product lines entering the funnel. We have therefore set an aggressive target for 2026: 7 to 9 new Design Wins across all our product lines, including FPGAs, Edge solutions and Smart NICs. With unique technologies, highly satisfied customers, a motivated team and a strong balance sheet, we are ideally positioned to achieve all of these goals, thereby delivering significant value for our shareholders."
