Remain largely exempt from Tariffs

NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTGR), a global leader in intelligent networking solutions designed to power extraordinary experiences, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 28, 2025.

Q3 2025

Net revenue of $184.6 million, up 0.9% from Q3 prior year

GAAP gross margin of 39.1%, up 820 basis points from 30.9% in Q3 prior year

Non-GAAP gross margin of 39.6%, up 850 basis points from 31.1% in Q3 prior year

GAAP operating income of $(7.1) million compared to $95.8 million from Q3 prior year

Non-GAAP operating income of $3.8 million compared to $1.6 million from Q3 prior year

GAAP EPS of $(0.17) compared to $2.9 from Q3 prior year

Non-GAAP EPS of $0.12 compared to $0.17 from Q3 prior year

For context, in Q3 2024 NETGEAR settled a significant legal dispute for over $100 million resulting in higher-than-normal GAAP operating income and EPS for that quarter.

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, "In the third quarter, the strong operational performance of our team enabled us to deliver revenue and non-GAAP operating margin above the high end of our guidance for a sixth consecutive quarter. We delivered record non-GAAP gross margin for the second consecutive quarter, up 180 basis points sequentially, which allowed us to achieve positive non-GAAP operating income for the first time this year, and non-GAAP earnings for the third consecutive quarter. Our ability to successfully navigate supply headwinds enabled material improvement in shipments of our market-leading ProAV managed switch products, allowing us to outperform our expectations for the higher-margin Enterprise segment (formerly named NETGEAR for Business). These results underscore the success of the first phase of our strategic transformation in building a healthier, more resilient business for the long term, and we are only beginning to see the initial benefits of our multi-pronged transformation strategy. We expect the culmination of these efforts to allow us to drive non-GAAP profitability each quarter this year while still making significant investments in areas we believe will drive long-term profitable growth and shareholder value creation."

Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer, added, "The third quarter once again exceeded our top and bottom-line expectations because of the stellar execution of our team and the proactive actions we undertook earlier this year to streamline NETGEAR's operations. Notably, contribution margin for each business unit grew by more than 440 basis points year over year, a testament to the progress we are making towards driving long-term profitable growth. We exited the quarter with over $326 million in cash and short-term investments and used approximately $20.0 million to repurchase approximately 815,000 shares of our common stock in Q3 at an average price of $24.55."

Enterprise Segment Results

Revenue was $90.8 million, up 15.7% year over year
Non-GAAP gross margin was 51.0%, up 630 basis points year over year
Non-GAAP contribution margin was 24.9%, up 440 basis points year over year

Mr. Prober continued, "Enterprise again had a great quarter, backed by the strategic investments we've made to drive additional growth and profitability and aided by our team's standout execution in securing supply to meet the growth in the demand for this business. The star of the segment was our differentiated ProAV solutions which experienced double-digit growth in end user demand year over year and quarter over quarter. Strong ASP and unit growth in ProAV, drove sequential and year-over-year growth in revenue and margins in the Enterprise segment, and allowed us to match the all-time high for gross margin in this business. We secured several blue-chip customer wins and increased our total number of AV Manufacturing partnerships to approximately 500, further cementing our leadership position in the space. To capitalize on the trajectory of our Enterprise business, we continue to focus on driving innovation to improve NETGEAR's differentiation in the market and in Q3 we announced the launch of a cybersecurity solution based on our Exium acquisition earlier in the year. In addition, we've made great strides in building out our new software team in Chennai and expect to release our integrated cloud management and security software in the coming months."

Home Networking Segment Results

Revenue was $72.6 million, down 6.6% year over year
Non-GAAP gross margin was 27.7%, up 590 basis points year over year
Non-GAAP contribution margin was 2.1%, up 680 basis points year over year

Mr. Prober continued, "In the Home Networking segment, we once again saw a favorable product mix as we benefited from our broadening portfolio of WiFi 7 products. Although the environment remained highly competitive, we were aided by strength in our higher-margin direct to consumer channel and our recently launched Orbi 370, NETGEAR's most affordable WiFi 7 mesh system, performed well. We saw share growth in WiFi 7 routers and mesh systems in the U.S. for the quarter and we remain confident in the long-term growth potential of the Home Networking business as we execute on our transformation. The ongoing growth of our Armor subscription service which remains a strategic priority for this business segment, was the driving force behind the company's $37.9 million in ARR, up 17.2% from the prior year period."

Mobile Segment Results

Revenue was $21.1 million, down 20.7% year over year
Non-GAAP gross margin was 31.0%, up 1,270 basis points year over year
Non-GAAP contribution margin was 1.4%, up 550 basis points year over year

Mr. Prober continued, "The Mobile segment delivered on our modest topline expectations and, with strong demand for our high-end offerings, we achieved a strong non-GAAP gross margin for this business. Although the service provider channel remains highly competitive, we continue to add new channel partners. For example, we will be launching the M7 Pro with O2 in the UK this quarter. We also have exciting new products coming to market for this segment over the coming months that will expand our addressable market for this segment. Over the long term, we expect our strategic capability in delivering mobile products to benefit our consumer and enterprise segments by offering differentiated experiences that integrate closely with our broader solutions for these end markets."

Business Outlook

Within Enterprise, end user demand for our ProAV line of managed switches is expected to remain strong, and, although we expect to continue to make improvements in our supply position, we continue to face supply headwinds, which may limit our ability to capture the full topline potential of this growing business. On the Home Networking side, we are seeing signs of the benefit of our broader product portfolio to address the market. On the Mobile side, we expect revenue to be in line with Q3 as we await our new product introductions. Accordingly, we expect fourth quarter net revenue to be in the range of $170 million to $185 million. In the fourth quarter we expect our operating expenses to be slightly reduced with our facilities costs normalizing as we have transitioned to our new headquarters, and partially offset by the further ramp of our planned investments, with a focus on insourcing software development capabilities and enhancing our go-to-market capabilities supporting our Enterprise business. Additionally, we expect a headwind to our gross margins of about 150 bps mainly related to the rising cost of memory as several of the main suppliers have exited the DDR4 market, accordingly we expect our fourth quarter GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (7.3)% to (4.3)%, and non-GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (2.0)% to 1.0%. Our GAAP tax is expected to be in the range of a benefit of $500,000 to an expense of $500,000, and our non-GAAP tax expense is expected to be in the range of $500,000 to $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2025.

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

	Three months ending
	December 31, 2025
(In millions, except for percentage data)	Operating Margin Rate	Tax Expense

GAAP	(7.3)% - (4.3)%	$(0.5) - $0.5
Estimated adjustments for¹:
Stock-based compensation expense	5.1%	-
Amortization of intangible assets and other charges	0.2%	-
Non-GAAP tax adjustments	-	1.0
Non-GAAP	(2.0)% - 1.0%	$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.
