Rendimiento empresarial y operativo
La actividad de concesión de licencias se mantuvo sólida en computación empresarial, automoción, industria, electrónica de consumo, comunicaciones y aeroespacio y defensa. Un tercio de las adjudicaciones de diseño del tercer trimestre en términos de valor monetario correspondió a los 30 principales clientes tecnológicos mundiales.
Arteris superó los 1.000 inicios de diseño confirmados por clientes durante el trimestre. La empresa también registró una mayor adopción en sus cuatro líneas de productos de IP de sistemas, a medida que los clientes abordaban la creciente complejidad del diseño de semiconductores.
La infraestructura de IA continuó siendo un motor fundamental de la demanda. El mayor acuerdo de Arteris en el tercer trimestre correspondió a un hiperescalador líder que amplió el uso de la tecnología de la compañía para chips y chiplets. Dos de las diez principales empresas de semiconductores también ampliaron sus despliegues para respaldar aceleradores de IA, computación para centros de datos y XPUs para cargas de trabajo basadas en agentes. La dirección señaló que estas aplicaciones involucran silicio personalizado para inferencia de IA.
La demanda de IA física se apoya en la experiencia de Arteris en el sector de la automoción. Un fabricante automotriz líder (OEM) amplió el uso de la tecnología de Arteris para sucesivas generaciones de chips diseñados internamente. La dirección afirmó que los diseños de IA física comparten requisitos del sector automotriz, tales como rendimiento, eficiencia energética, seguridad funcional y ciberseguridad, si bien la robótica puede exigir capacidades adicionales de control de movimiento y procesamiento de sensores.
La compañía amplió su cartera de chiplets y multi-die con FlexGen Multi-Die y Ncore Multi-Die. Los productos están diseñados para extender el movimiento de datos a través de enlaces die-to-die, de modo que múltiples dies puedan operar como una arquitectura unificada. Arteris señaló que cada chiplet puede representar un proyecto y una fuente de regalías independientes, aunque la fijación de precios a nivel de encapsulado continúa sujeta a la negociación con el cliente y a descuentos.
La ciberseguridad en semiconductores fue otro aspecto central. Arteris amplió su programa de IP de terceros en el marco de la iniciativa Trusted and Assured Microelectronics en colaboración con BAE Systems y SiFive. La dirección tiene previsto extender aún más su oferta de seguridad hacia clientes comerciales, señalando que la adopción requiere tiempo.
Previsiones de la dirección
| Métrica de previsión | 4T 2026 | Todo el año 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| ACV más regalías | De 103 a 107 millones de dólares | Cerrar 2026 entre 103 y 107 millones de dólares; el punto medio del rango se elevó en 1 millón de dólares frente a la previsión anterior |
| Ingresos | De 25,7 a 26,7 millones de dólares | De 98,5 a 99,5 millones de dólares; un incremento de 2,5 millones de dólares frente a la previsión anterior |
| Beneficio o pérdida operativa no GAAP | De una pérdida de 0,9 millones de dólares a un beneficio de 1,1 millones de dólares | Pérdida de 9,2 a 7,2 millones de dólares; una mejora de 0,3 millones de dólares frente a la previsión anterior |
| Flujo de caja libre no GAAP | — | Positivo entre 5 y 9 millones de dólares; sin cambios |
La dirección reiteró el objetivo de su modelo operativo a largo plazo de incrementar los gastos operativos a aproximadamente la mitad del ritmo de crecimiento de los ingresos. La empresa afirmó que la inversión continua en desarrollo de productos y éxito del cliente respaldará el futuro crecimiento de los ingresos, mientras gestiona los gastos para mejorar el apalancamiento operativo.
Riesgos y aspectos a vigilar
- El ACV más regalías puede resultar irregular entre trimestres, ya que el calendario de cierre de los acuerdos genera volatilidad.
- El flujo de caja libre del tercer trimestre fue negativo, debido principalmente al calendario de pagos de los clientes.
- Las cargas sociales en Francia asociadas a la consolidación de RSU incrementaron el crecimiento de los gastos durante 2026.
- Los productos de ciberseguridad requieren tiempo para ganar adopción, especialmente mientras Arteris busca expandirse desde programas vinculados al gobierno hacia cuentas comerciales.
- La rentabilidad económica de los proyectos de chiplets depende de las negociaciones con los clientes, incluidos los descuentos cuando se incorporan múltiples chiplets en un solo encapsulado.
Puntos destacados de la sesión de preguntas y respuestas con analistas
La dirección estimó que un acuerdo de red en chip (network-on-chip) presenta un precio promedio de venta de alrededor de 1 millón de dólares en 2026. Los clientes que adopten también los productos de automatización de la integración y seguridad podrían sumar entre 400.000 y 450.000 dólares, elevando un contrato multiproducto amplio a aproximadamente entre 1,4 y 1,5 millones de dólares.
Los diseños de chiplets representan actualmente alrededor del 10% de los inicios de diseño. La dirección considera que esta proporción podría aumentar a aproximadamente el 35% o más en los próximos dos o tres años. Cada chiplet puede generar su propia tarifa de proyecto y flujo de regalías, lo que hace que los programas multi-die sean más valiosos que los proyectos tradicionales de un solo die, aunque la fijación de precios se negocia por encapsulado.
En cuanto a la rentabilidad, la dirección sostuvo que los gastos operativos deberían crecer a aproximadamente la mitad del ritmo de los ingresos. La empresa afirmó que cuenta con buena visibilidad sobre los gastos y citó ese marco de referencia al analizar la mejora en sus perspectivas para el cuarto trimestre.
Arteris también hizo hincapié en la diversificación de clientes y aplicaciones. Según la dirección, ningún cliente representó más del 10% de los ingresos en los últimos trimestres.

Karel Janac
Thank you, Erica, and thanks to everyone for joining us on our call today. In the third quarter, we achieved another record annual contract value plus royalties of $104 million, representing a 39% year-on-year increase, and record revenue of 25.8 million, representing a 48% increase. Once again, we also achieved record royalties and RPO backlog. Licensed activity in the quarter remains strong, supported by the continuing integration of data center edge and physical AI computing. We are seeing this across all market verticals led by enterprise computing, followed by automotive, industrial, consumer electronics, communications, and aerospace and defense applications. A third of those wins in dollar terms were with top 30 global technology customers. Demonstrating strong market momentum, a growing number of customers are deploying multiple products from our four system IP product lines.
This multi-product adoption reflects the critical role our solutions play in managing rising semiconductor design complexity. During the quarter, Arteris surpassed 1,000 customer-confirmed design starts. Arteris is increasingly becoming a key partner in the rapidly evolving semiconductor market spanning the world's largest established technology companies through the most innovative startups. By enabling the underlying high performance, efficient, safe and secure data movement in silicon devices, Arteris has been able to support innovation from the smartphone inflection to today's deployments in sophisticated and complex AI infrastructure silicon, intelligent edge devices, and physical AI. Surpassing 1,000 customer-confirmed design starts demonstrates continued customer confidence in our products and our customer success organization. AI infrastructure semiconductor design activity remains strong in Q3 with a growing demand for Arteris products that help enable the underlying data movement in chips and chiplets. In the third quarter, our largest deal was with a top hyperscaler who expanded their existing use of Arteris technology to accelerate the creation and integration of chips and chiplets.
In addition, two of the industry's top 10 semiconductor companies expanded their usage of our products to support their existing AI accelerators and data center compute needs, as well as the growing demands for architecture across XPUs for agentic workloads and other applications. Physical AI is another area where we continue to see growing demand for our Arteris products. Building upon our proven technology in automotive and autonomous systems, customers are able to scale our solutions to drones, humanoid robotics, and adjacent applications. In the third quarter, one of our largest deals came from a leading automotive OEM, which expanded the use of our Arteris technology for successive generations of their in-house advanced chip designs, where performance, energy efficiency, safety, and security are crucial. Another highlight of the third quarter was our announcement of the expansion of our chiplet and multi-die solution. The silicon design sophistication continues to grow across applications. The required physical semiconductor area becomes quite large, creating design, manufacturing, and yield challenges.
As a result, the development of chiplets and their integration into multi-die SOCs is accelerating. This in turn introduces the challenge of addressing die-to-die communication and data movement that previously occurred seamlessly within one chip, now having to cross physical boundaries while maintaining performance efficiency and predictable traffic behavior. The expansion of our chiplet and multi-die solution addresses this challenge. by extending data movement across die to die links, allowing multiple dies to operate as a unified architecture. The new FlexGen Multi-Die and Encore Multi-Die products expand the Arteris solution to support chiplet architectures. These increasingly include solutions for agentic AI workflows, HPC, data center, cloud infrastructure, physical AI, and others. Together with Arteris Magellan IP Integration Automation and Cycuity Hardware Security Assurance, our expanded portfolio provides semiconductor engineering teams with technologies spanning data movement, system integration, and cybersecurity for increasingly complex multi-die designs. These new products are a direct result of close collaboration with customers such as AMD and Socionext and ecosystem partners including Cadence, Siletronics, Synopsys, Univista and others.
Chiplets, multi-die systems, AI infrastructure, and physical AI also increasingly require semiconductor cybersecurity assurance. The growing security threats posed by fast-evolving frontier AI models identification and exploitation of vulnerabilities are driving new and growing cybersecurity standards compliance requirements. This results in growing interest and demand for our security semiconductor cybersecurity assurance products. During the third quarter, we announced the expansion of the third party IP program as part of the trusted and assured microelectronics program. This program, driven in close collaboration by BAE Systems and Sci-5, aims to address the growing challenge of ensuring the security and trustworthiness of commercially sourced third party silicon IP, cybersecurity assurance methodologies for semiconductors used in mission critical systems enabled by our products. Our customers continue to innovate in exciting high-growth areas, which require a combination of high performance, efficiency, safety, and security, backed by global customer support. Arteris continues to be in an excellent position to support demand for advanced semiconductor technologies in the AI era, infrastructure silicon, edge devices, and physical AI systems.
Our focus remains on enabling customers to accelerate their innovation while reducing development risks to bring their next generation products to market with Arteris technology at its core. Lastly, I will hand the call over to our new CFO, Saurabh Sinha brings more than 25 years of financial leadership experience at public and high-growth technology companies, and we're excited to have him on board. With that, I will turn it over to Saurabh to discuss our financial results in detail.
Saurabh Sinha
Thank you, Charlie. Good afternoon, everyone. Since joining Arteris in September, I have spent the past few weeks integrating with the team and diving deep into our operations. It is a privilege to step into the company at such a pivotal moment in its growth. I look forward to collaborating closely with the team to capture the significant opportunities ahead and drive long-term value for both customers and shareholders. As I review our Q3, 2026 results, I will refer to both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. The earnings release posted on our website includes a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures. I will also refer to the Q3 earnings presentation, which is available in the investor relations section of our website under events and presentation.
We delivered another quarter of solid financial results, and in Q3 we exceeded or met our guidance on revenue and other key KPIs. Turning to slide five, Q3 revenue was 25.8 million, up 48% from a year ago, and exceeding the top end of our guidance range. At quarter end, ACV plus royalties totaled 104 million, up 39% year-over-year, and also exceeding the top end of our guidance. Setting another record, trailing 12-month royalties were 9.4 million, up 71% year-over-year, and also a record high. Remaining performance obligations, or RPO, which represents contracted future revenue, totaled 135 million at quarter end, another record for Arcturus. We expect slightly more than half of this amount to be recognized as revenue during the 12 months beginning October 1, 2026. Non-GAAP gross profit was 22.8 million for a non-GAAP gross margin of 89%.
GAAP gross profit was 22.3 million for a GAAP gross margin of 87%. As a reminder, 2026 gross margin includes subcontractor costs in cost of revenue for certain security government contracts. Now to slide six, non-GAAP operating expenses in the quarter were 24 million. As mentioned in previous calls, expense growth has been impacted this year by French payroll taxes associated with RSU vesting. Our long-term operating model objective is to grow operating expenses at approximately half the rate of revenue growth, and our Q3 revenue and operating expense results are consistent with that model. As always, our continued investment in product development and customer success will support revenue growth over the coming years. Total GAAP operating expenses for Q3 were 33.6 million.
Non-GAAP operating loss was 1.2 million, which is an improvement of $2.3 million from the same quarter a year ago. Gap operating loss was 11.3 million. Non-gap net loss was 1.1 million, or two cents per diluted share. gap net loss was 11.2 million or 23 cents per diluted share. Moving now to slide seven, free cash flow in the quarter was negative 2.1 million, primarily reflecting the timing of customer payments. We ended the quarter with 120 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, and no financial debt, which includes the completion of our ATM program. Now turning to our outlook for Q4 and full year 2026, please refer to slide eight. For Q4 2026, we expect ACV plus royalties of 103 million to 107 million. revenue of 25.7 million to 26.7 million. non-GAAP operating income of negative 0.9 million to positive 1.1 million.
As we look to finishing a strong 2026 for Arctrus, we see continued strength in semiconductors. Consequently, we are raising our full year guidance on revenue, ACV plus royalties, and non-GAAP operating income. For the full year 2026, our guidance is as follows. ACV plus royalties to exit 2026 at 103 million to 107 million, an increase of 1 million from prior guidance. revenue of 98.5 million to 99.5 million, and increase of 2.5 million from prior guidance. non-GAAP operating loss of between 9.2 million to 7.2 million, an improvement of 0.3 million from prior guidance. non-GAAP free cash flow of positive 5 million to positive 9 million unchanged from prior guidance. We are encouraged by the continued license activity and ongoing customer engagement. We remain focused on execution and on managing expenses carefully as we work toward improving operating leverage. With that, I'll turn the call back to the operator for the Q&A.

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question and answer session. Should you have a question, please press the star followed by the one on your touchtone phone. You'll hear a prompt that your hand has been raised. Should you wish to decline from the polling process, please press the. star followed by the two. If you are using a speakerphone, please lift the handset before pressing any keys. Please limit your questions to one question and one follow-up question to allow enough time for others in the queue. Individuals can re-enter the queue if needed.
One moment, please, for your first question. Your first question comes from Kevin Garrigan with Jefferies. Please go ahead.
Preguntas y respuestas
Kevin Garrigan
Yes. Hey, Charlie and Saurabh. Congrats on the results. And Saurabh, welcome to the Arteris party. Hey, can you quantify the economics of the multi-product adoption? How much larger is the average contract when a customer takes the NOC system integration and security product together versus... you know, just taking a single product agreement.
Karel Janac
Yes, so as we said, so when we went public back in 2021, that by 2026, which is this year, we'll be at about about $1 million ASP on the network on chip. If you throw in the Magilem and the Psycuity products, probably looking at something for an additional 400,000 maybe for 450 something like this and so if you take everything from us you would probably be somewhere around 1.4 1.5 million.
Kevin Garrigan
Got it. Got it. Okay. That makes sense. And then your licensing agreements with the U.S. hyperscaler and the two leading-edge semiconductor companies, can you just describe the applications, whether these are for training, inference, networking, or custom silicon? And is it different than, I guess, are the applications different than what they were previously using before?.
Karel Janac
Are tariffs for? No, they're the same. So basically they are custom silicon for AI inference. Okay.
Operator
Got it. Okay, perfect. Thanks, guys, and congrats again on the results. Thank you. Thank you. Your next question comes from Kevin Cassidy with Rosenblatt. Please go ahead.
Kevin Cassidy
Yes, thanks for taking my question, and I also welcome Saurabh. And congratulations on the milestone of 1,000 customers. When you're moving into the physical AI or expanding on the physical AI, it seems like that's a great opportunity. How much different are these designs than, say, what was in automotive or in data center?.
Karel Janac
So the physical AI actually looks, have significant similarities to automotive. You need functional safety, you need security, you need power efficiency, and you need performance. So, you know, The experience that we have in automotive translates directly to physical AI. In fact, I would argue that a car eventually will become basically a robot on wheels. Basically, the automated driving vehicles are basically applications of physical AI to transportation. There are some differences. There is a greater emphasis on sort of microcontroller functions and be able to handle motion control of the various motion axes and those kinds of things and also some additional sensor processing capability, but there's actually quite a bit of similarity.
Kevin Cassidy
Okay, great. You've got good experience already. And, you know, also we're seeing the trend of the... smaller physical AI companies getting acquired by even large analog companies or either other large microcontroller companies. What happens with your license agreements if there's a merger of two of your customers?.
Karel Janac
So all of our contracts have assignment provisions. And so it's a subject of discussion where we do not unreasonably withhold assignment of the contracts, but the assignment of the contracts using our technology is not automatic.
Kevin Cassidy
Okay, great. All right, thank you. Congratulations on good progress towards profitability, too. Thanks.
Operator
Thank you. Your next question comes from Joshua Buchalter with TD Cowen. Please go ahead.
Joshua Buchalter
Hey guys, thank you for taking my questions and echoing the welcome to SORAB. You know, maybe Kevin teed me up for one. You know, now that your guidance is implying sort of operating profitability in the fourth quarter, you know, how should we think about leverage from here? I mean, you guys have a lot of irons on the fire, but have held off pretty flat the last few quarters. You know, what's the sort of the right trajectory as we think about comparing OpEx growth to revenue growth from here? Thank you.
Saurabh Sinha
Yes, I'll take that Charlie. So Josh, as I mentioned in my prior remarks, our model is operating expenses to grow at half the rate of our revenue growth and which we have demonstrated in this quarter as well. So that is the trajectory we are on. the operating expenses we have very good visibility on it and we expect to, and that is why we raised our guidance for Q4.
Joshua Buchalter
Thank you for the color there. And then to follow up, I mean, you highlighted a few times, you know, seeing more traction in multi-die chiplet offerings. Any way you can help us with context of how much of the revenue base today is coming from, you know, FlexBGEN and Amkor solutions for multi-die?.
Karel Janac
Thank you. So we don't break this out individually, but right now, chiplet designs are about 10% of all designs. We think that ultimately that grows to about maybe 30, 35% of all designs. So it will be a significant contributor to our revenue growth. The thing that should be noted though is that the chiplet designs are basically Each chiplet is a project and each chiplet is a royalty stream. And so the chiplet projects have basically significantly higher ASP than single die projects. So we're very excited about the technology. The data movement schemes of chiplet designs are much more sophisticated. and valuable, and so we think that chiplets represent a significant opportunity for Arteris going forward, and we're already in a significant number of chiplet designs.
Thank you for the color there, Charlie. Really interesting. Helpful again. Thank you.
Operator
Your next question comes from Martin Yang with Oppenheimer. Please go ahead.
Martin Yang
Thank you for taking my question. Again, welcome, Saurabh. First question on the ACV plus royalties. This quarter, the incremental growth sequentially is moderating relative to the prior quarters. Is there anything worth pointing out there, any movement.
Saurabh Sinha
that you could give us more details. Thank you. Yeah, Martin. So, I mean, we look at on a year-over-year basis and we have shown steady growth in ACV and royalties. If you look at our revenue growth, that has been also excellent. And we have guided up for Q4 as well. We did beat Q3, top end of the range. So it is all about... looking at a snapshot at a point in time and there is some lumpiness which happens due to timing of the deals but we feel pretty confident about and that is why q4 is being guided up.
Martin Yang
Got it. Thank you, Farah. Another question on security. I was curious if you have an updated view on your go-to-market approaching customers outside of government contracts, which are longer-term vision for security comparing to what it is today.
Karel Janac
Yes, I mean, cybersecurity is becoming much more important and much more top of mind issues for customers, both on the government side and the commercial side. Last quarter, we announced a deal with ARM for use of security on their A-class cores. This time, we announced We've also announced a deal with BAE and Sci-5 for a trusted initiative. This is more of a government side. But obviously over time our goal is to take our security more and more into the commercial accounts where we have a significant presence. You know, security takes a while to adopt, but we're very encouraged with the progress that we're seeing. Thank you, Charlie. That's it for me.
Operator
Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, as a reminder, if you have a question, please press star one. Your next question comes from Suji Da Silva with Roth Capital Partners. Please go ahead.
Sujeeva De Silva
Hi, Charlie and Saurabh, best of luck in the new role here. Staying on the chiplet topic, Charlie, maybe you could talk about, you said it's their each one project for these multi-chip. versus this monolithic die, maybe you can give us some sense of kind of the ratio of how many projects you're seeing as we break out the chiplets versus the traditional monolithic die programs. And if it's kind of an X multiplier or if there's some bundling in there.
Karel Janac
Well, I mean, it's a subject of negotiation, right? You know, if you have five or six chiplets in a package, right, There's a discussion with a customer about what is the discount on each project, right? It's not a basically one X multiplier for each chiplet, but we and other companies in the industry are establishing a model that each chiplet in the package has its own project price and its royalty. those projects are pretty prevalent or more prevalent in the data center, because they're, they're, they're basically used for the AI training and inference workloads. And, you know, those are, those are big complex projects, with much, much higher ASPs. And, I think right now, as far as what we're seeing, is about 10% of the license of the design starts are chiplets. We think that over the next two to three years, it's going to grow to perhaps 35% or maybe even more. Obviously, the data movement architecture of those kinds of chips. You not only have to handle the on-die data movement, but you also have to handle the multi-die data movement. And so things get much more valuable and much more complex, and it's an opportunity for us to add value So we're very excited about the chiplet-type projects.
Sujeeva De Silva
Yeah that's great color Charlie thanks and then just one question to sort of throw out there I mean you may be seeing some early humanoid robotics projects versus automotive projects, any sense of how many more design win opportunities are for you, just you know on some sample examples out of the gate here to get some idea of a ratio of kind of a robotics opportunity versus automotive droid versus an automobile, how many, what the ratio there might be?.
Saurabh Sinha
Yes, so Sujit, we are well diversified from a customer base and application standpoint. So no one customer has accounted for more than 10% of our revenue in the last few quarters. And we are also diversified by geography as well, along with the application. So automotive, yes, and ADAS is important for us, but there are other applications as well which are shaping up equally well. Okay. All right. Thanks guys.
Operator
Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes today's Q&A session. I will turn the call back over to Charlie Janik.
Karel Janac
