Vincent Roche, CEO Thank you, Jeff, and a very good morning to you all.
Well, as you've seen, third quarter revenue, margin, and earnings all exceeded our outlook, with growth across all of our end markets led by data center and industrial, propelling us to the first $4 billion quarter in Analog Devices' history.
Demand for our solutions continues to grow, supported by robust AI and defense spending, cyclical momentum, and underlying secular content growth across our diversified end markets.
Through targeted R&D, we continue to extend the limits of technology performance and accelerate the pace with which we are delivering more comprehensive solutions to our customers' toughest problems.
In tandem, investments in our hybrid manufacturing network have enabled us to increase the agility and responsiveness of our supply chain and consistently capture above seasonal growth for more than two years now.
For the rest of my remarks today, I'll focus on how we're helping customers meet unprecedented and still accelerating demand for AI, infrastructure, and energy systems.
The fact that data center capacity is now measured in gigawatts rather than flops and TOPS underscores one of the most defining challenges of the AI era: power availability has become the primary constraint to further AI progress.
Solving this challenge requires more than simply adding more energy, however.
It demands a grid-to-chip system-level approach that encompasses both improving the availability and delivery of energy and extracting the maximum computing power from every watt delivered.
Now let me walk you through some of the key elements of our grid-to-chip strategy, starting at the grid where the AI bottleneck begins.
As electricity networks become more complex, visibility, efficiency, and resilience are becoming critical challenges.
Customers are turning to Analog Devices' grid monitoring solutions to illuminate the flow of energy across the network, providing real-time insight into voltage, current, power quality, and system health.
