ARM delivered strong Sep-Q results, with revenue growing 34% Y/Y to $1.135B (beating our +26% forecast), exceeding guidance across key metrics, with non-GAAP operating margin expanding 250 bps to 41.1%. License revenue surged 56% to $515M, while royalty revenue grew 21% to $620M, driven by Armv9 adoption and CSS strategy gaining traction, with 19 licenses across 11 companies. Diversified growth across smartphones, data centers, automotive, and IoT reduces historical smartphone dependence and positions ARM to benefit from AI infrastructure buildout. Dec-Q guidance exceeded expectations, with revenue of $1.225B and EPS of $0.41 vs expectations of $1.111B and $0.35. ARM's data center positioning looks compelling, expecting nearly 50% CPU market share among top hyperscalers this year, with major cloud providers including AWS, Google, and Microsoft expanding ARM-based offerings and strategic partnerships like Meta validating the full-stack approach.
