NETGEAR® Reports First Quarter 2025 Results
NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR), a global leader in intelligent networking solutions designed to power extraordinary experiences, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 30, 2025.
Q1 2025
-
Net revenue of $162.1 million, down 1.5% from Q1 prior year
-
GAAP gross margin of 34.8%, up 550 basis points from 29.3% in Q1 prior year
Non-GAAP gross margin of 35.0%, up 550 basis points from 29.5% in Q1 prior year
-
GAAP operating income of $(12.8) million compared to $(21.6) million from Q1 prior year
Non-GAAP operating income of $(2.6) million compared to $(16.0) million from Q1 prior year
-
GAAP EPS of $(0.21) compared to $(0.63) from Q1 prior year
Non-GAAP EPS of $0.02 compared to $(0.28) from Q1 prior year
The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of financial measures computed on a GAAP basis to financial measures computed on a non-GAAP basis.
CJ Prober, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are very pleased with the progress of our ongoing transformation and the execution of our global teams. All of our business units delivered at or above our expectations with year-over-year contribution margin improvements for each of more than 400 basis points. Our outperformance was led by stronger than expected demand for our ProAV managed switches, excellent supply chain execution and diligent expense management. These combined to produce revenue and operating margin above the high end of guidance and positive non-GAAP EPS for the quarter. We also completed an acquisition involving VAAG Systems to form the foundation for our new software development center in Chennai, India, a move that will lead to faster, higher quality software execution in a lower cost model given reduced reliance on expensive outsourced software development partners. With a continued focus on improving our software capabilities, building out our product portfolio and expanding our best-in-class team, NETGEAR is well positioned to improve revenue and profitability as we move through 2025 and execute on our transformation.”
Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer, added, “The improved linearity across NETGEAR’s three business units has reduced volatility and significantly improved our ability to match sell-in with sell-through and resulted in DSOs reaching a seven year low of 78 days. We exited the quarter with nearly $392 million in cash and short-term investments, and we repurchased approximately $7.5 million of common stock. Importantly, to maximize long-term shareholder value and build momentum on our journey to top and bottom-line expansion, we completed a restructuring of the business in Q1, ultimately saving more than $20 million in annual operating expenses that we are strategically reinvesting into the business to further our competitive advantage and position NETGEAR for renewed growth and improved profitability in the coming year and beyond.”
NETGEAR For Business (NFB) Segment Results
- Revenue was $79.2 million, up 15.4% year over year
- Non-GAAP gross margin was 46.3%, up 440 basis points year over year
- Non-GAAP contribution margin was 22.3%, up 790 basis points year over year
Mr. Prober continued, “For NFB, although we entered the quarter expecting to be limited by supply constraints, the outstanding execution of our team enabled us to achieve better than expected supply of our in-demand, differentiated ProAV products and drive better than expected performance for this segment and the company overall. The profitability of our higher-margin NFB segment continues to expand, and we remain excited about the trajectory of this business. We also added new manufacturing partners in the quarter, including many new partners in the important broadcast vertical, bringing our total to over 400 partners.”
Mobile Segment Results
- Revenue was $21.5 million, down 25.3% year over year
- Non-GAAP gross margin was 24.6%, up 730 basis points year over year
- Non-GAAP contribution margin was 1.2%, up 460 basis points year over year
Mr. Prober continued, “Our Mobile business experienced better than expected end user demand and this contributed to our performance in the quarter. The strategy for this segment is progressing well and we are positioning ourselves to better serve the market as we execute our ‘good-better-best' strategy with new product introductions planned for later in the year. It’s clearer than ever that improving our product portfolio is the key to success and we expect these efforts will drive our Mobile segment towards greater growth and profitability as we exit 2025.”
Home Networking Segment Results
- Revenue was $61.4 million, down 8.7% year over year
- Non-GAAP gross margin was 24.1%, up 190 basis points year over year
- Non-GAAP contribution margin was (2.8)%, up 490 basis points year over year
Mr. Prober continued, “I’m pleased with our progress in the Home Networking segment where we drove sequential share gain in our two biggest markets, the U.S. and Europe, even in the face of this highly competitive market. These impressive results are a clear validation of the momentum rebuilding behind the NETGEAR brand and the burgeoning success of our refocused ‘good-better-best’ product strategy in this business as well. The share gain, driven by better sales across our higher-margin WiFi 7 offerings, lower cost inventory and the right-sized investments enabled us to significantly lower our contribution loss year over year.”
Business Outlook
Mr. Murray continued, “We expect to continue to see more predictable performance that is aligned with the market for all of our businesses. Within NFB, end user demand for our ProAV line of managed switches is expected to remain strong, and, although we expect to continue to make improvements in our supply position, we continue to face lengthy lead times for supply, which may limit our ability to capture the full topline potential of this growing business. On the Home Networking side, we are seeing signs of the benefit of our broader product portfolio to address the market and expect to experience normal seasonality in this business. On the Mobile side, we expect revenue to be in line with Q1 as we await our new product introductions to round out the portfolio later in the year. Accordingly, we expect second quarter net revenue to be in the range of $155 million to $170 million. In the second quarter we expect our gross margin to be in line or decrease slightly from the first quarter level, and we expect to ramp our planned investments, with focus on insourcing software development capabilities and enhancing our go to market capabilities supporting our NFB business, accordingly we expect our second quarter GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (10.4)% to (7.4)%, and non-GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (6.5)% to (3.5)%. Our GAAP tax expense is expected to be in the range of $0.5 million to $1.5 million, and our non-GAAP tax expense is expected to be in the range of $1.0 million to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2025. It's worth noting that we don’t manufacture any of our products in China, the biggest target of the evolving U.S. trade policy, and the vast majority of our products are exempt from the recently announced tariffs, thus we don’t expect any associated impact from them to our Q2 financial results. As these policies continue to be fluid, our team continues to refine response plans should they be necessary.”

1 Business outlook does not include estimates for any currently unknown income and expense items which, by their nature, could arise late in a quarter, including: litigation reserves, net; acquisition-related charges; impairment charges; restructuring and other charges and discrete tax benefits or detriments that cannot be forecasted (e.g., windfalls or shortfalls from equity awards or items related to the resolution of uncertain tax positions). New material income and expense items such as these could have a significant effect on our guidance and future GAAP results. |

Non-GAAP Financial Information:
To supplement our unaudited selected financial data presented on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP general and administrative, non-GAAP total operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP other income (expenses), net, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share. These supplemental measures exclude adjustments for stock-based compensation expense, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, gain/loss on investments and others, and adjust for effects related to non-GAAP tax adjustments. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance.
In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to our ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:
- the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our on-going operating results;
- the ability to better identify trends in our underlying business and perform related trend analyses;
- a better understanding of how management plans and measures our underlying business; and
- an easier way to compare our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.
The following are explanations of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding them in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:
Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of stock options, restricted stock units, performance shares and shares under the employee stock purchase plan granted to employees. We believe that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types. In addition, we believe it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on our operating results.
Other items consist of certain items that are the result of either unique or unplanned events, including, when applicable: restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, and gain/loss on investments and others. It is difficult to predict the occurrence or estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financial statements, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods. The amounts result from events that often arise from unforeseen circumstances, which often occur outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. Therefore, the amounts do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of our continuing business operations for the period in which they are incurred.
Non-GAAP tax adjustments consist of adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures in order to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income (loss). We believe providing financial information with and without the income tax effects relating to our non-GAAP financial measures, as well as adjustments for valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, provides our management and users of the financial statements with better clarity regarding both current period performance and the on-going performance of our business. Non-GAAP income tax expense (benefit) is computed on a current and deferred basis with non-GAAP income (loss) consistent with use of non-GAAP income (loss) as a performance measure. The Non-GAAP tax provision (benefit) is calculated by adjusting the GAAP tax provision (benefit) for the impact of the non-GAAP adjustments, with specific tax provisions such as state income tax and Base-erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax recomputed on a non-GAAP basis, as well as adjustments for valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. The tax valuation allowance is a non-cash adjustment primarily reflecting our expectations of, and assumptions as to, future operating results and applicable tax laws, that are not directly attributable to the current quarter’s operating performance. For interim periods, the non-GAAP income tax provision (benefit) is calculated based on the forecasted annual non-GAAP tax rate before discrete items and adjusted for interim discrete items.
