Click here to know how Marvell Technology’s overall fiscal fourth-quarter performance is likely to have been.
MRVL’s Carrier, Enterprise & Data Center Business Growing
Marvell Technology’s data center segment is propelling the company’s growth, driven by the rising adoption of AI workloads across both hyperscale and enterprise markets. In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, the communication business grew 25.7% year over year, the data center rose 38% and the carrier rose 98%. This trend is likely to have continued in the to-be-reported quarter.
The momentum in the data center business is likely to have been aided by rising cloud capital expenditure forecasts, the expanding adoption of 1.6T optical products and a growing pipeline of XPU-attach, driving MRVL’s revenues in the to-be-reported quarter. To grow its data center end market, the company has launched the Golden Cable initiative.
Together with the introduction of the Golden Cable initiative and acquisition of XConn Technologies and Celestial AI, revenues of the data center end market are expected to have increased in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. MRVL is also gaining from the adoption of scale-up switches that connect AI accelerators within and across racks.
The normalizing of customer inventory levels and the strong adoption of MRVL’s refreshed products are likely to have driven revenues of enterprise networking and carrier infrastructure end markets in the to-be-reported quarter. MRVL expects its carrier revenues to almost double year over year in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026.
Consumer & Industrial Segments Are Weak Points for MRVL
In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, MRVL’s Automotive/Industrial revenues declined 58% year over year and 54% sequentially to $35 million due to the divestiture of the Automotive Ethernet business, coupled with persistent weakness in the industrial segment. The industrial business is experiencing lumpy order patterns and is expected to persist in the to-be-reported quarter.
MRVL’s consumer business is likely to have been affected by a seasonal decline in the to-be-reported quarter. MRVL’s top line has been in a declining trend for the past two quarters. This trend is likely to have persisted in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Marvell Technology’s fourth-quarter revenues is pegged at $2.2 billion, indicating year-over-year growth of 21%.
