Guidance and outlook
Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 5, 2026
- We believe that all these trends will continue for the next few years, and the challenges involved in adopting Industry 4.0 and secure cloud computing will create opportunities for our combination of advanced analytics capabilities, proven and established supporting infrastructure, and professional services to configure our products to meet customers’ specialized needs.
- We have developed contingency plans to use alternative resources to continue serving customers, if needed.
- Additional capacity is expected to be added in the coming years, which increases the market for our offerings.
- We expect most logic foundries to invest in derivatives of older process nodes, such as 28nm and 14nm, to extract additional value as many of their customers will not move to advanced nodes due to either technological barriers or restrictive economics.
- Foundries that participate at leading edge nodes are expected to continue to invest in new technologies such as memory, packaging, and multi-patterned and extreme ultraviolet lithography, as well as new innovations in process control and variability management.
- We expect China’s investment in semiconductors to continue.
- Further, trade conflict through exchange of tariffs and other retaliatory actions are expected to impact worldwide supply chains, increase prices and put downward pressure on economic activity, and could negatively affect our future sales in various geographic markets.
- Based on our current assessments, we expect the near-term impact of these evolving trade restrictions on our business to be limited.
- We anticipate our expenses in research and development will fluctuate in absolute dollars from period to period as a result of the size and the timing of product development projects.
- We anticipate our selling, general, and administrative expenses will fluctuate in absolute dollars from period to period as a result of cost control initiatives and to support increased selling efforts in the future.
- We intend to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on the DTAs until sufficient evidence indicates its DTAs will be realized.
- Therefore, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to our profitability and projected ability to utilize our tax attributes, among other factors.
