Rambus Inc (RMBS) (Q3 2026) Earnings Call Highlights: Record Revenue and EPS as DDR5

Rambus Inc (RMBS) reported record revenue and EPS for Q3 2026, driven by DDR5 demand. Q4 guidance shows 34% YoY growth, with RCDs leading. MRDIMM ramp may be slower due to platform adoption and memory despecing. Gross margins were at the lower end of the 60-63% range due to supply chain costs. CEO Luc Seraphin expressed optimism for 2027, despite supply chain challenges and limited visibility into customer inventory.
