EX-99.1 2 exhibit991-q326pressrelease.htm EX-99.1 Document Exhibit 99.1 Keysight Technologies Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results Second consecutive record quarter with orders over $2 billion; full-year outlook improved SANTA ROSA, Calif., August 18, 2026 - Keysight Technologies,
How this was made
The 30-second read
Why it matters
The key tradable elements are the reported Q3 financials (revenue, GAAP and non-GAAP net income, operating cash flow, free cash flow) and the explicit Q4 revenue and non-GAAP EPS guidance ranges.
Market read
Guidance and quarterly performance provide a fresh expectation set for revenue growth and earnings power, which can move the stock and options pricing.
What to watch
The filing emphasizes non-GAAP measures and includes a note that GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation is not provided for certain tax-rate items, which can create uncertainty around GAAP earnings quality.
Background
This is an SEC Form 8-K (Item 2.02) with Exhibit 99.1 covering Keysight’s third fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2026 results and fourth-quarter outlook.
Ticker impact
Keysight reported Q3 FY2026 revenue of $1.85B and raised/improved its outlook, including Q4 revenue $1.930B to $1.950B.
Likely positive bias for KEYS into the next session and earnings call, with traders focusing on order strength and whether Q4 guidance holds.
The filing includes concrete financial datapoints (revenue, GAAP and non-GAAP EPS, cash flow) and explicit forward guidance ranges for Q4, which are direct inputs to valuation and expectations.
Market effects
Signals strength in test and measurement demand across communications and industrial electronics, potentially supportive for peers in electronic design automation and instrumentation.
Primarily US-listed semiconductor and engineering-services sentiment, with limited direct regional spillover beyond tech earnings complex.
Order and guidance strength can reflect global capex and R&D spending trends in communications, aerospace, and semiconductor-related engineering.
Counterpoint
Guidance improvement may already be partially priced; traders may discount results if order growth decelerates or margins/cash conversion weaken in the next quarter.
