Orders up 56% with record $2B+ quarter

Keysight Technologies reported a blowout Q3 FY26 with record orders ($2.091B, +56%), revenue ($1.846B, +36%), and EPS ($3.07, +79%). Growth was broad-based, led by AI infrastructure scaling in commercial communications (wireline) and strength in defense and EISG. Management raised Q4 and full-year guidance, citing a durable multi-year demand cycle, though supply chain constraints remain the primary limiter on near-term revenue. Orders grew 56% YoY to $2.091 billion, marking the second consecutive quarter above $2 billion; pipeline is at an all-time high.

Incoming parts under high demand; earlier internal capacity challenges largely resolved

Supply chain constraints are the primary governor of near-term revenue conversion, limiting the company's ability to fully capitalize on record demand.

“the challenges have shifted more towards incoming parts, which are under high demand as demand has ramped.”

Keysight states lead times and supply chain constraints are the primary governor of near-term revenue, not demand, and is taking an 18-month+ view on supply planning, redesigning products for second sources.

“Supply chain will remain the governor of near-term revenue. We will have to redesign some products on the margin to accommodate second sources and enter into some more longer term agreements with our customers.”

Keysight indicated that the traditional R&D vs. manufacturing mix in its wireline business has shifted from ~80-20% to ~70-30% R&D:manufacturing, and in the last two quarters it's been closer to 2/3 vs 1/3.

“We've more recently said with the addition of manufacturing business and the support of the AI data center build-out, that that shifted to more like 70-30. And I think if you looked at over a shorter horizon over the last couple of quarter…”

Keysight's largest customers (hyperscalers) are performing 'up high double digits for the year' and directly contribute ~10% of revenue, but their influence extends far beyond this via ecosystem effects.

“our largest customers are doing well, performing up high double digits for the year. And more importantly, we're really expanding our reach across their entire ecosystem.”

Venture-funded defense tech companies like Anduril are adopting Keysight's P&T solutions for testing autonomous platforms; this segment is growing but remains a small portion of Keysight's revenue.
