Mar 6, 2025

Keysight Technologies, Inc. reported its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, ending January 31, 2025. Total revenue for the quarter increased by 3% year-over-year to $1.3 billion, driven by a 5% increase in the Communications Solutions Group (CSG), while the Electronic Industrial Solutions Group (EISG) saw a slight 1% decline. Net income for the quarter was $169 million, a marginal decrease from $172 million in the prior year period.

Investing activities saw a significant reduction in cash outflow compared to the prior year, largely due to the absence of a major acquisition.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Jan 31, 2024

Mar 5, 2024

Keysight Technologies, Inc. reported a decrease in revenue and net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 compared to the prior year. Total revenue declined by 9% to $1.26 billion, while net income fell by 34% to $172 million, or $0.98 per diluted share. This decline was attributed to macroeconomic headwinds, a challenging geopolitical environment, and a cautious customer spending approach. The company completed the acquisition of ESI Group for $935 million, which contributed $68 million to revenue in the quarter and expanded its simulation capabilities. Despite the year-over-year decrease, Keysight's gross margin improved slightly to 64.6% due to favorable mix and cost efficiencies, partially offset by acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs. R&D expenses increased as a percentage of revenue due to the ESI Group acquisition, while SG&A expenses also rose. The company's balance sheet shows a significant increase in goodwill and intangible assets due to the acquisition, alongside a decrease in cash and cash equivalents from $2.47 billion to $1.75 billion, reflecting the cash used for the acquisition. Keysight remains confident in its long-term growth prospects driven by innovation in key technology areas.
