NETGEAR Q1 Earnings Call Highlights

NETGEAR reported Q1 2026 earnings, highlighting record profitability with a non-GAAP gross margin of 41.7% and non-GAAP EPS of $0.06, despite a slight revenue decline of 2% year-over-year to $158.8 million. The strong performance was driven by the enterprise segment, which saw revenue increase by 5.8% year-over-year, while the consumer segment softened due to memory cost pressures and deliberate portfolio actions. The company also announced share buybacks and provided Q2 revenue guidance between $150 million and $165 million.
