Cirrus Logic Reports Fiscal Third Quarter Revenue of $580.6 Million


AUSTIN, Texas – February 3, 2026 – Cirrus Logic, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRUS) posted on its website at investor.cirrus.com the quarterly Shareholder Letter that contains the complete financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, which ended December 27, 2025, as well as the company’s current business outlook.
“Cirrus Logic delivered revenue above the high end of our guidance range for the December quarter driven by stronger-than-anticipated demand for components shipping into smartphones and a favorable mix of end devices,” said John Forsyth, Cirrus Logic president and chief executive officer. “During the quarter, we also made solid progress executing on our strategy to expand our addressable market and drive product diversification. This included sampling a new component designed to enable and enhance the use of voice as an interface for AI-enabled PCs and ramping our latest-generation amplifier and codec in mainstream PC platforms. We also added new product families targeting prosumer and automotive that will broaden our general market offerings across a wider range of applications. As we look ahead, we expect to continue to capitalize on our extensive intellectual property portfolio and deep engineering expertise to position the company for long-term success.”

Reported Financial Results – Third Quarter FY26
Revenue of $580.6 million;
GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of 53.1 percent;
GAAP operating expenses of $155.2 million and non-GAAP operating expenses of $133.0 million; and
GAAP earnings per share of $2.66 and non-GAAP earnings per share of $2.97.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information is included in the tables accompanying this press release.



Business Outlook – Fourth Quarter FY26
Revenue is expected to range between $410 million and $470 million;
GAAP gross margin is forecasted to be between 51 percent and 53 percent; and
Combined GAAP R&D and SG&A expenses are anticipated to range between $147 million and $153 million, including approximately $21 million in stock-based compensation expense and $2 million in amortization of acquired intangibles, resulting in a non-GAAP operating expense range between $124 million and $130 million.
