The way to think about it is mobile applications processors were about 43% of royalty revenue in fiscal 2026, down from about 46% a year earlier as data‑center royalty grows – we’ve held greater than 99% share of mobile apps processors for many years. Near‑term smartphone unit growth is expected to be flat to slightly negative, concentrated at the low end, which we expect to be more than offset by cloud AI demand. In data‑center networking chips – DPUs and SmartNICs – management characterises our share as close to 100%, though the filing does not break that out separately.

Look, at a very high level, right? We are re‑entering the datacenter as a custom‑silicon provider for an unnamed leading hyperscaler – a datacenter CPU plus AI‑inference accelerators built on the Alphawave acquisition, with initial shipments guided for the December‑2026 quarter and the customer withheld until a June investor day. As you know, our edge AI read is deliberately measured and we flag that whether the custom datacenter effort converts to material recurring revenue remains an open question.

Look, at a very high level, right? We're re-entering datacenter as custom silicon for an unnamed leading hyperscaler — CPU plus inference accelerators on Alphawave connectivity, first shipments guided December 2026, customer held for June investor day. As you know, our read is agent orchestration is CPU-bound; Oryon spans phone, PC, auto, datacenter. I think edge inference stays contested and early; whether custom datacenter converts to recurring revenue is the open question we flag.
