Operating margin above the high end of guidance

Record high GAAP gross margin of 40.5% and non-GAAP gross margin of 41.7%

Share repurchases of $20 million at an average price of $21.53

ARR from subscription and services of approximately $40 million

NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTGR), a global leader in intelligent networking solutions designed to power extraordinary experiences, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 29, 2026.

Q1 2026

Net revenue of $158.8 million, down 2.0% as compared to Q1 prior year
GAAP gross margin of 40.5%, up 570 basis points from 34.8% in Q1 prior year

Non-GAAP gross margin of 41.7%, up 670 basis points from 35.0% in Q1 prior year
GAAP operating income of $(13.6) million compared to $(12.8) million from Q1 prior year

Non-GAAP operating income of $1.7 million compared to $(2.6) million from Q1 prior year
GAAP EPS of $(0.47) compared to $(0.21) from Q1 prior year

Non-GAAP EPS of $0.06 compared to $0.02 from Q1 prior year

The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of financial measures computed on a GAAP basis to financial measures computed on a non-GAAP basis.

CJ Prober, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We delivered a strong start to 2026, building on a healthy operating foundation and disciplined execution across the business. As we progress into the next phase of our transformation, we're reaping the benefits of the foundation we've built, while continuing the investments that will fuel our future profitable growth. In Q1, we again achieved a record non-GAAP gross margin driven by the strength of our Enterprise business and supported by tighter supply chain discipline. AI is increasingly acting as a transformation catalyst across the organization – enhancing how we operate, accelerating software development, and creating value for customers. With sufficient memory secured for virtually all of our 2026 production, a strong balance sheet, and solid margin momentum, we are well positioned to deliver sustained, long-term shareholder value."

Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer, added, "Our first quarter results demonstrate the strength of our financial execution and the breadth of improvements we have made across the business as we progress into the second phase of our transformation. We exceeded expectations on the bottom line, improved our revenue mix toward higher-margin products and services, and maintained strong operational discipline in a dynamic environment, further underscoring the agility of our operating model and lean execution of our team. Continuing our opportunistic approach to stock repurchases, we repurchased $20 million of shares at an average price of $21.53 per share, and our Board of Directors has approved an additional $75 million for our repurchase authorization, which when combined with the remaining amount on the previous authorization totals approximately $89 million."

Enterprise Segment Results

Revenue was $83.8 million, up 5.8% year over year
Non-GAAP gross margin was 52.7%, up 640 basis points year over year
Non-GAAP contribution margin was 23.9%, up 160 basis points year over year

Mr. Prober continued, "Propelled by strong end user demand for our leading ProAV solutions and other high-impact growth initiatives, our Enterprise segment performed well, reaching 53% of our total revenue. We delivered solid year-over-year growth and another quarter of record segment gross margin validating the progress we've made in building a higher-margin growth profile. Momentum in non-device revenue is building with an important recent release of our Insight software, as we realize early benefits from our new Chennai software development center and the acquisitions of VAAG and Exium. We also launched a new structured portfolio of professional services and support offerings in the quarter and made strong progress expanding our presence in the Broadcast vertical for ProAV. Partnerships and projects with leading names in the industry are opening significant new opportunities. NETGEAR remains well-positioned to strengthen our leadership in the AV industry and deliver continued profitable growth."

Consumer Segment Results

Revenue was $75.0 million, down 9.5% year over year
Non-GAAP gross margin was 29.4%, up 520 basis points year over year
Non-GAAP contribution margin was (0.2)%, up 160 basis points year over year

Mr. Prober continued, "In Consumer, we delivered revenue growth for our core products, strong gross margin despite the memory headwind, and improved contribution margin year over year. Our good-better-best WiFi 7 lineup continues to perform well, and we are seeing the benefits of our disciplined focus on continued gross profit optimization. Our consumer subscription offering continues to perform well and is the driving force in generating nearly $40 million in annual recurring revenue across the company, growing 12% year over year, while improving ASPs and renewals. On the regulatory front, NETGEAR became the first retail company to receive conditional approval under the new FCC standards for consumer routers — a reflection of our longstanding commitment to security, supply chain integrity, and our status as an independent US-based public company. We believe this positions NETGEAR as the most trusted brand in consumer networking, and we remain focused on delivering the performance, reliability, and security our customers expect."

Business Outlook

Within Enterprise, end user demand for our ProAV line of managed switches is expected to remain strong and we have secured sufficient memory for virtually all our 2026 production plans. We expect the memory impact to be nominal for our Enterprise business given the relatively higher ASPs and margins, and the ability to increase our prices, as seen broadly in the market. On the Consumer side, while we have the right product portfolio and roadmap to address market demand, we will continue to prioritize gross profit over revenue with the rising cost of memory which we expect to continue throughout the year. We also expect to continue driving growth in higher margin recurring services. For Service Provider and related products, we remain steadfast in our approach of harvesting this business and expect revenue to be around $18 million, which would be a decline of approximately 33% as compared to the second quarter of 2025. Accordingly, we expect second quarter net revenue to be in the range of $150 million to $165 million. In the second quarter we expect our mitigation efforts, with greater benefit to the enterprise business, to counter the rising cost of memory. Accordingly, we expect our second quarter GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (8.4)% to (5.4)%, and non-GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (1.0)% to 2.0%. Our GAAP tax is expected to be in the range of $0.8 million to $1.8 million, and our non-GAAP tax expense is expected to be in the range of $0.5 to $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2026.

A reconciliation between the Business Outlook on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in the following table:

	Three months ending
	June 28, 2026
(In millions, except for percentage data)	Operating Margin Rate	Tax Expense

GAAP	(8.4)% - (5.4)%	$0.8-$1.8
Estimated adjustments for¹:
Stock-based compensation expense	6.3%	-
Amortization of intangible assets	0.9%	-
Restructuring and other charges	0.2%	-
Non-GAAP tax adjustments	-	(0.3)
Non-GAAP	(1.0)% - 2.0%	$0.5 - $1.5

¹Business outlook does not include estimates for any currently unknown income and expense items which, by their nature, could arise late in a quarter, including: litigation reserves, net; acquisition-related charges; impairment charges; restructuring and other charges and discrete tax benefits or detriments that cannot be forecasted (e.g., windfalls or shortfalls from equity awards or items related to the resolution of uncertain tax positions). New material income and expense items such as these could have a significant effect on our guidance and future GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Information:

To supplement our unaudited selected financial data presented on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP general and administrative, non-GAAP total operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP other income (expenses), net, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share. These supplemental measures exclude adjustments for amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, gain/loss on investments and others, and adjust for effects related to non-GAAP tax adjustments. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to our ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management's incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results "through the eyes" of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our on-going operating results;
the ability to better identify trends in our underlying business and perform related trend analyses;
a better understanding of how management plans and measures our underlying business; and
an easier way to compare our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding them in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Amortization of intangible assets consists primarily of non-cash charges that can be impacted by, among other things, the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. We consider our operating results without these charges when evaluating our ongoing performance and forecasting our earnings trends, and therefore exclude such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of our competitors.

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of restricted stock units and shares under the employee stock purchase plan granted to employees. We believe that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types. In addition, we believe it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on our operating results.

Other items consist of certain items that are the result of either unique or unplanned events, including, when applicable: acquisition related expenses, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, and gain/loss on investments and others. It is difficult to predict the occurrence or estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financial statements, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods. The amounts result from events that often arise from unforeseen circumstances, which often occur outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. Therefore, the amounts do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of our continuing business operations for the period in which they are incurred.

Non-GAAP tax adjustments consist of adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures in order to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income (loss). We believe providing financial information with and without the income tax effects relating to our non-GAAP financial measures, as well as adjustments for valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, provides our management and users of the financial statements with better clarity regarding both current period performance and the on-going performance of our business. Non-GAAP income tax expense (benefit) is computed on a current and deferred basis with non-GAAP income (loss) consistent with use of non-GAAP income (loss) as a performance measure. The Non-GAAP tax provision (benefit) is calculated by adjusting the GAAP tax provision (benefit) for the impact of the non-GAAP adjustments, with specific tax provisions such as state income tax and Base-erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax recomputed on a non-GAAP basis, as well as adjustments for valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. The tax valuation allowance is a non-cash adjustment primarily reflecting our expectations of, and assumptions as to, future operating results and applicable tax laws, that are not directly attributable to the current quarter's operating performance. For interim periods, the non-GAAP income tax provision (benefit) is calculated based on the forecasted annual non-GAAP tax rate before discrete items and adjusted for interim discrete items.
