TradingKey - Chipmaker Analog Devices (ADI.US) reported its third-quarter 2025 financial results on Wednesday, delivering both revenue and earnings that surpassed market expectations. Fueled by strong demand in the industrial sector, the company also issued a fourth-quarter outlook significantly above analyst forecasts. Shares rose over 6% intraday, closing at $244.87.
The company reported:
CEO Vincent Roche said that order trends and backlog growth in the industrial market remain strong, signaling sustained demand. The industrial segment, ADI’s largest revenue driver, contributed 45% of total sales this quarter, generating $1.29 billion — a 23% year-over-year increase.
Market analysts suggest that some manufacturers are pulling forward orders in anticipation of shifting U.S. tariff policies, creating a short-term surge in semiconductor demand. While trade uncertainty persists, ADI has successfully capitalized on growth opportunities through its technological leadership in smart industrial systems, automation, and energy transition.
Roche emphasized that the company’s “diversified and resilient business model” enables it to navigate market volatility and continue delivering value to shareholders.
Looking ahead, ADI’s guidance for Q4 far exceeds expectations:
As the semiconductor industry continues its recovery, Analog Devices — with its leadership in industrial applications — is emerging as a key beneficiary of the current upcycle, reinforcing the view that the sector’s long-awaited rebound may finally be taking hold.
