Speaker #4: As you can see, we exceeded our outlook across the board. Our revenue of $4.0 billion came in well above our outlook range, driven by strong execution and customer demand for the ZT Systems business, resulting in some accelerated compute shipments previously expected in the second half to shift into the second quarter.

Our non-GAAP operating margin of 6.4% and our non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $3.16 also exceeded our outlook, driven by the additional revenue, mix, and disciplined cost management.

Our Core Sanmina business revenue grew 7.3% versus the same period a year ago, in line with our expectations. Our ZT Systems business revenue was $1.88 billion, exceeding our expectations. As I explained just a moment ago, this was driven by strong execution and customer demand, resulting in some accelerated compute shipments previously expected in H2 to shift into Q2.

This represents our third quarter in a row of non-GAAP operating margin at 6% or above. Our non-GAAP operating income and expense was a net expense of $25.9 million. Our non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $3.16 based on approximately 55 million shares outstanding.

This decrease was primarily driven by depreciation and other expenses related to investments to support new programs, which we expect will deliver margin accretive growth in future quarters.

Jon Faust: Now please turn to slide nine, where I will speak to the balance sheet highlights. We continue to have a very strong balance sheet with prudent leverage and ample liquidity, giving us the fiscal agility to support our growth objectives. Cash and cash equivalents were $1.58 billion. At the end of the quarter, we had no outstanding borrowings on our $1.5 billion revolver, leaving us with substantial liquidity of approximately $3.7 billion, which will support the expected growth of the business. We ended the quarter with inventory of $2.1 billion, net of customer advances, which is up 75% versus the same period a year ago, driven by the ZT Systems acquisition.

We continue to have one of the strongest balance sheets in the industry with a net leverage ratio of 0.56 times. This ratio is calculated in a balanced manner by annualizing our non-GAAP EBITDA results for H1, which only includes five months for ZT Systems, but also some shipments advanced from H2, as using the pro forma trailing 12 months for ZT Systems wouldn't accurately represent the current run rate of the business.

Speaker #4: We continue to have one of the strongest balance sheets, with a ratio of 0.56 times.

Speaker #4: As we have previously communicated, our long-term target net leverage range is 1.0 times to 2.0 times.

Jon Faust: As we have previously communicated, our long-term target net leverage range is 1.0 times to 2.0 times.

That being said, we remain committed to maintaining a healthy balance sheet, which means carefully managing the liquidity needed to invest in the business and capitalize on strategic opportunities that further strengthen our position in the market.

Our strong cash flow performance gives us the flexibility to continue to invest in the business and return capital to our shareholders. Now please turn to slide 11, where I will speak to our capital allocation strategy. When it comes to capital allocation, it's incredibly important to have a clear strategy and a well-defined set of priorities when making decisions.

This authorization has no expiration date as we intend to continue to repurchase shares opportunistically and in the context of the capital allocation strategy I just outlined. Now please turn to slide 12, where I'll provide an update on the ZT Systems business. The Sanmina and ZT Systems leadership teams have been working together to ensure a successful and seamless integration of the business with a clear objective to realize the full value of combining the two companies. In order to do this, we are following a three-phase plan. The first phase is focused on executing the immediate post-transaction integration actions, which are largely complete at this point.

Speaker #4: While we'll always look for opportunities to streamline processes, improve the way we work, and drive efficiencies for our customers, the core of the ZT Systems business has now been integrated, and we've made most of the necessary capital investments in incremental power, liquid cooling, and test cell capacity to be production-ready for the next generation of accelerated compute.

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Hi, thank you for taking my questions.

Speaker #4: Hello, Ruplu.

Jure Sola: Hello, Ruplu.

Speaker #3: Hi, Yuri. How are you? Sounds like VT came in a lot stronger than you had expected. What drove that outperformance? Was it the MI300 series product that you shipped more of in fiscal Q2, or was it NVIDIA GPU business?

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Hi, Jure. How are you?

Jure Sola: Good. Yeah.

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Sounds like, ZT came in a lot stronger than you had expected. What drove that outperformance? Was it the MI300 series product that you shipped more of in fiscal Q2, or was it Nvidia GPU business? You said something got pulled in, so any details on that? When we look at your fiscal 2026 guidance, you're saying that ZT will be well within $5 to 6 billion, and I think you're guiding $1.1 billion for Q3, which would mean that fiscal Q4 has to be at least $1.5 billion of revenue from ZT. What is giving you confidence in meeting that level of revenue given you just had a pull-in in fiscal Q2? I have a couple of follow-ups.

Speaker #3: You said something got pulled in. So any details on that? And then when we look at your fiscal 2026 guidance, you're saying that ZT will be well within five to six billion.

Speaker #3: What is giving you confidence in meeting that level of revenue, given you just had a pull-in in fiscal Q2? And I have a couple of follow-ups.

Speaker #4: Yeah, Ruplu, excellent questions. First of all, this was a great quarter. The customer wanted to pull in some of the products that originally were scheduled for the third and fourth quarter.

Jure Sola: Yeah. Ruplu, excellent questions. First of all, you know, this was a great quarter. Customer wanted to pull in some of the products that originally was on a schedule for Q3 and Q4. They had a demand, and our team was able to deliver it. So that's good. We did not ship any accelerated compute of Nvidia product. Whatever we shipped, it was all based on AMD technology. As we look at the future, I think there's a lot of exciting stuff going around the new products. We won, you know, multiple hyperscalers and ODMs for the future, so it's been an exciting quarter for us. John, I don't know if anything else you want to add to that.

Speaker #4: They had a demand, and our team was able to deliver it, so that's good. We did not ship any accelerated compute or NVIDIA product.

Speaker #4: Whatever we shipped, it was all based on AMD technology. As we look at the future, I think there's a lot of exciting stuff going on around new products.

Jure Sola: Whatever we shipped, it was all based on AMD technology. As we look at the future, I think there's a lot of exciting stuff going around the new products. We won, you know, multiple hyperscalers and ODMs for the future, so it's been an exciting quarter for us. John, I don't know if anything else you want to add to that.

Speaker #4: We won multiple hyperscalers in ODMs for the future, so it's been an exciting quarter for us. And John, I don't know if there's anything else you want to add to that.

Speaker #5: Yeah, just to add, Ruplu, on the front end—so, I mean, we're very excited, as Yuri said, to do so much business in this quarter around accelerated compute.

Jon Faust: Yeah. Just to add, Ruplu, on the front end. I mean, we're very excited, as Yuri said, to do so much business in this quarter around accelerated compute, and it's new platform business, not the old legacy products that ZT had. You and I have spoken quite a bit, you know, this would be a good proof point for Sanmina if we won business building out these new products. We're certainly excited about that. Then it was strong execution too. You know, there's a lot of demand out there for that product and the customer wants it quickly. You know, when we came in and we guided at the beginning of last quarter, we weren't sure that we'd get all the components and so forth that we would need to get it done.

Jon Faust: Yeah. Just to add, Ruplu, on the front end. I mean, we're very excited, as Jure said, to do so much business in this quarter around accelerated compute, and it's new platform business, not the old legacy products that ZT had. You and I have spoken quite a bit, you know, this would be a good proof point for Sanmina if we won business building out these new products.

Speaker #5: And it's new platform business, not the old legacy products that ZT had. You and I have spoken quite a bit, as this would be a good proof point for Sanmina if we won business building out these new products.

Speaker #5: So we're certainly excited about that. And then it was strong execution too. There's a lot of demand out there for that product, and the customers want it quickly.

Jon Faust: We're certainly excited about that. Then it was strong execution too. You know, there's a lot of demand out there for that product and the customer wants it quickly. You know, when we came in and we guided at the beginning of last quarter, we weren't sure that we'd get all the components and so forth that we would need to get it done.

Speaker #5: When we came in and we guided at the beginning of last quarter, we weren't sure that we'd get all the components and so forth that we would need to get it done.

Speaker #5: But that came in. The team was able to build it quickly, so that's great. And hopefully, we'll see if there's going to be more of those types of orders at this point.

Jon Faust: That came in, the team was able to build it quickly. That's great, and hopefully, we'll see if there's gonna be more of those types of orders. At this point, you know, given the nonlinear nature, there isn't any, so. We'll see. That could change. Our real focus, as Yuri was saying, is on the future new generation platform. We're focused on getting production ready for that, and excited about the new opportunities that we won for that business.

Jon Faust: That came in, the team was able to build it quickly. That's great, and hopefully, we'll see if there's gonna be more of those types of orders. At this point, you know, given the nonlinear nature, there isn't any, so. We'll see. That could change. Our real focus, as Jure was saying, is on the future new generation platform. We're focused on getting production ready for that, and excited about the new opportunities that we won for that business.

Speaker #5: Given the non-linear nature, there isn't any. So, but we'll see. That could change. But our real focus, as Yuri was saying, is on the future, new generation platform.

Speaker #5: So we're focused on getting production ready for that. And excited about the new opportunities that we won for that business.

Speaker #3: Okay. John, you mentioned in the PowerPoint that the margin profile for ZT is in line with the overall company, so that would be about 6.4%.

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Okay. John, you mentioned in the PowerPoint that the margin profile for ZT is in line with the overall company. That would be about 6.4%. Do you see this margin profile as sustainable over the next couple of quarters as the AI or accelerated part of the business ramps higher?

Speaker #3: Do you see this margin profile as sustainable over the next couple of quarters as the AI or accelerated part of the business ramps higher?

Speaker #4: Yeah, like you're kind of insinuating or getting at, Ruplu, it all depends on the mix, the business. So right now, it's very much in line in this quarter landing at 6.4%.

Jon Faust: Yeah. It's like you're kind of insinuating or getting at, Ruplu, it all depends on the mix of the business. Right now, you know, it's very much in line in this quarter, landing at 6.4%. If you look at our guide for Q3, it's at 6.4% to 6.9%, and that's kind of implied for Q4 'cause the full year comes in at 6.3% to 6.6%. That's because we're not gonna have as much of the accelerated computes as we would in the future. Like long-term, as we've said before, you know, we expect the margin profile to be roughly in line with core Sanmina and where that's been.

Speaker #4: If you look at our guide for Q3, it was at 6.4 to 6.9. And that's kind of implied for Q4 because the full year comes in at 6.3 to 6.6.

Speaker #4: And that's because we're not going to have as much of the accelerated compute as we would in the future. But, like long term, as we've said before, we expect the margin profile to be roughly in line with core Sanmina.

Speaker #4: And where that's been. Now, this will all depend as we're finalizing some of the customer agreements and where we land in terms of consignment and so forth.

Jon Faust: Now, this will all depend as we're finalizing some of the customer agreements and where we land in terms of consignment and so forth. That may adjust. A little bit early to talk about expectations for 27, but we did want to give you the guide specifically for fiscal year 2026. That's why we guided the full year to let you know what we expect over the next six months.

Speaker #4: That may adjust. So a little bit early to talk about expectations for 2027. But we did want to give you the guide specifically for fiscal year 2026.

Speaker #4: That's why we guided the full year, to let you know what we expect over the next six months. If I can add to that, Ruplu, I think as John said, it's a transition year.

Jure Sola: Yeah.

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Okay.

Jure Sola: If I can add to that, Rupal, I think it's, as John said, it's a transition year. You know, a lot of work, but we're ahead of schedule. You know, we're gonna have a lot better year than what we expected at the beginning of the year, so. Most importantly, how well we're gonna be positioned for the future when it comes to demand. Demand is not gonna be a problem. It's all about timing when the hyperscalers mainly do their scheduling, and so on and so on. It's all about getting ready for the better days in the future.

Speaker #4: A lot of work, but we're ahead of schedule. And we delivered, and we're going to have a lot better year than what we expected at the beginning of the year.

Speaker #4: And most importantly, how well we're going to be positioned for the future when it comes to demand. Demand is not going to be a problem.

Speaker #4: It's all about timing, when the hyperscale is—mainly, they do their scheduling and so on and so on. So, it's all about getting ready for the better days in the future.

Speaker #3: Okay, Yuri. I'm going to try and sneak one more in. Can you give us some more details on the communication segment? I mean, this has been traditionally a strength for Sanmina.

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Okay, Yuri. I'm gonna try and sneak one more in. Can you give us some more details on the communication segment? I mean, this has been traditionally a strength for Sanmina. Can you talk about, like you mentioned, optical IP switching and broadband 5G? How much of the segment revenue comes from each of these buckets? And are you seeing more demand for optical transceivers, or are you seeing demand for switches? And are you actually shipping 1.60 switches today?

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Okay, Jure. I'm gonna try and sneak one more in. Can you give us some more details on the communication segment? I mean, this has been traditionally a strength for Sanmina. Can you talk about, like you mentioned, optical IP switching and broadband 5G? How much of the segment revenue comes from each of these buckets? And are you seeing more demand for optical transceivers, or are you seeing demand for switches? And are you actually shipping 1.60 switches today?

Speaker #3: Can you talk about—you mentioned optical IP switching and broadband 5G. How much of the segment revenue comes from each of these buckets? And are you seeing more demand for optical transceivers, or are you seeing demand for switches?

Speaker #3: And are you actually shipping 1.6T switches today?

Speaker #4: First of all, before I forget, I'm an older guy here. Yes, we're shipping 1.6 terabyte switches in what I would call a new product introduction, and so on.

Jure Sola: First of all, before I forget, you know, I'm an older guy here. Yes, we're shipping 1.6-terabyte switches. We're in a what I would call new product introduction and so on. As you know, we have multiple customers that we build switches. We do not compete with our customers, but we're building some of the most advanced switches for our partners. Back to your direct question. Yeah, we are very excited about our communication business because we're building some of the most advanced products that goes in there around IP routing, optical systems, optical pluggables, around 400, 800, and we're also developing 1.6 terabytes in a pluggables. Those are all exciting stuff.

Speaker #4: As you know, we have multiple customers that we build switches for. We do not compete with our customers, but we're building some of the most advanced switches for our partners. Back to you—direct question.

Speaker #4: Yeah, we are very excited about our communication business because we're building some of the most advanced products that go in there, around the IP routing, optical systems, optical pluggables, around 400, 800.

Jure Sola: Yeah, we are very excited about our communication business because we're building some of the most advanced products that goes in there around IP routing, optical systems, optical pluggables, around 400, 800, and we're also developing 1.6 terabytes in a pluggables. Those are all exciting stuff.

Speaker #4: And we are also developing 1.6 terabytes in a pluggable. So those are all exciting stuff. And then, as I said, traditional telecom is coming back.

Jure Sola: As I said, traditional telecom is coming back, and we do a little bit of 5G wireless. That's a small percentage of overall business, maybe 2% to 3% of it, but it's a, you know, couple solid customers there. You know, overall, yeah, this segment for us right now is really doing well in every segment inside of it. We're well diversified from high-performance communication networks to cloud AI infrastructure.

Speaker #4: And we do a little bit of 5G wireless. That's a small percentage of overall business, maybe 2–3 percent of it, but it's a couple of solid customers there.

Speaker #4: So overall, yeah, everything in this segment for us right now is really doing well, in every segment inside of it. And we've well diversified from high-performance communication networks to cloud AI infrastructure.

Speaker #3: Okay. All right. Thank you for all the details. Appreciate it.

Ruplu Bhattacharya: Okay. All right. Thank you for all the details. Appreciate it.

Speaker #4: Thank you, Ruplu.

Jure Sola: Thank you, Ruplu.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Samiq Chatterjee from JPMorgan. Your line is now open.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Samik Chatterjee from JP Morgan. Your line is now open.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Samik Chatterjee from JPMorgan. Your line is now open.

Speaker #4: Hello, Samiq. Welcome.

Jure Sola: Hello, Samik. Welcome.

Speaker #6: Thank you. Thanks for taking my questions. Maybe for the first one, just going back to your reference to new wins on the ZT system side with customers.

Samik Chatterjee: Thank you. Thanks for taking my questions. Maybe for the first one, just going back to your reference to new wins on the ZT Systems side with customers where you're shipping pre-production systems and waiting to finalize customer schedules. Just checking in to see if you can flesh that out a bit more. Are these timings sort of more driven by whether you can ship in 2026, or are these some systems that ship in 2027? Any more visibility on the timing? And how broad-based the customer base is here. Is it all of the hyperscalers that are engaged, or are you engaged with one or two hyperscalers? If any sort of color on the customer mix as well. Thank you. I'll follow.

Speaker #6: We're shipping pre-production systems and waiting to finalize customer schedules. Just checking in to see if you can flesh that out a bit more.

Speaker #6: Are these timings sort of more driven by whether you can ship in 2026, or are these some systems that ship in 2027? Any more visibility on the timing?

Samik Chatterjee: Any more visibility on the timing? And how broad-based the customer base is here. Is it all of the hyperscalers that are engaged, or are you engaged with one or two hyperscalers? If any sort of color on the customer mix as well. Thank you. I'll follow.

Speaker #6: And how broad-based is the customer base here? Is it all of the hyperscalers that are engaged, or are you engaged with one or two hyperscalers?

Speaker #6: If any sort of color on the customer mix as well. Thank you. And I have a follow-up.

Speaker #3: Well, Samiq, again, welcome for covering Sanmina. Let me kind of take some of that, and I'll turn it over to John because John has been responsible pulling ZT into Sanmina.

Jure Sola: Well, Samik, again, welcome for covering Sanmina. Let me kind of take some of that, and I'll turn it over to Jon because Jon being responsible pulling ZT into Sanmina has been doing an excellent job. First of all, when you look at the market opportunity for us, let's talk about cloud AI infrastructure around the hyperscalers, is tremendous. It's every hyperscaler out there, you know, we already starting to do some business and, but our goal is to win every one of these large hyperscalers, you know, over the next, you know, 12 months, 18 months. You know, it's been better than what we expected. We'll be more successful than what I expected when we acquired the ZT system. Okay.

Speaker #3: He's been doing an excellent job. First of all, when you look at the market opportunity for us, let's talk about cloud AI infrastructure around the hyperscalers.

Speaker #3: It's tremendous. It's every hyperscaler out there. We already are starting to do some business, but our goal is to win every one of these large hyperscalers over the next 12 to 18 months.

Jure Sola: It's every hyperscaler out there, you know, we already starting to do some business and, but our goal is to win every one of these large hyperscalers, you know, over the next, you know, 12 months, 18 months. You know, it's been better than what we expected. We'll be more successful than what I expected when we acquired the ZT system. Okay.

Speaker #3: It's been better than what we expected. We'll be more successful than what I expected when we acquired the ZT system. Okay. But opportunities, demand is big.

Jure Sola: Opportunities, demand is big, and we are positioning the company, and we're putting infrastructure in place to be able to handle the, you know, the latest technology for the future. From my perspective, we see a lot of upside. John.

Speaker #3: And we are positioning the company, and we're putting an infrastructure in place to be able to handle the latest technology for the future.

Speaker #3: So from my perspective, we see a lot of upside. So, John?

Speaker #5: Yeah, let me add a few points, Samiq. And thanks again for joining, and welcome. So yeah, the business that we did this quarter was all new accelerated compute business.

Jon Faust: Yeah. Let me add a few points, Samik, and thanks again for joining and welcome. So yeah, the business that we did this quarter was called new accelerated compute business. Nothing to do with the legacy platforms. But you know, there was very little, right, when you think about the next generation product. Now that's scheduled to be out in September, and everything is very much on track from that perspective. You know, we're doing everything that we're responsible for, which is getting production ready, making sure that we can build all the products at scale for all these customers. That's very much on track. Now, whether or not we get a huge amount of revenue in September is remained to be seen.

Speaker #5: Nothing to do with the legacy platforms. But there was very little when you think about the next generation product. Now, that's scheduled to be out in September.

Jon Faust: Now that's scheduled to be out in September, and everything is very much on track from that perspective. You know, we're doing everything that we're responsible for, which is getting production ready, making sure that we can build all the products at scale for all these customers. That's very much on track. Now, whether or not we get a huge amount of revenue in September is remained to be seen.

Speaker #5: And everything is very much on track from that perspective. We're doing everything that we're responsible for, which is getting production ready, making sure that we can build all the products at scale for all these customers.

Speaker #5: But that's very much on track now. Whether or not we get a huge amount of revenue in September remains to be seen. And now everything is on schedule.

Jon Faust: Now everything is on schedule, but just to give you guys some perspective, you know, once the silicon and so forth becomes production ready, it takes us a while to build the products. Say a couple of weeks, right? Then we've got to ship the products all around the world. Just to be clear, like the revenue recognition for us in this business is when the customers receive it, right? The opportunity in our fiscal 2026 isn't really huge. That's more of an FY 2027 play. That's why we talk about towards the end of the calendar year. As we said on the call or in our prepared remarks, you know, we have started to ship some pre-production volumes. You know, we're learning more and more about building these products, getting ready.

Speaker #5: But just to give you guys some perspective, once the silicon and so forth becomes production-ready, it takes us a while to build the products.

Speaker #5: So, say a couple of weeks, right? And then we’ve got to ship the products all around the world. And just to be clear, the revenue recognition for us in this business is when the customers receive it, right?

Speaker #5: So the opportunity in our fiscal 2026 isn't really huge. That's more of an FY27 play. That's why we talk about towards the end of the calendar year.

Speaker #5: But as we said on the call or in our prepared remarks, we have started to ship some pre-production volumes. We're learning more and more about building these products, getting ready.

Jon Faust: As we said on the call or in our prepared remarks, you know, we have started to ship some pre-production volumes. You know, we're learning more and more about building these products, getting ready.

Speaker #5: And so, more to come on the customer specifics and the schedules. That's why we wanted to put on the slide that we're working through those details.

Jon Faust: More to come on the customer specifics and the schedules. That's why we wanted to put on the slide that we're working through those details. We are happy to say that we've won several customers now, multiple customers, and our goal is to fill up all of our capacity. If we continue to win beyond that, we'll look to invest more.

Speaker #5: But we are happy to say that we've won several customers now—multiple customers. And our goal is to fill up all of our capacity.

Speaker #5: And if we continue to win beyond that, we'll look to invest more.

Speaker #4: Yeah.

Jure Sola: Yeah.

Speaker #6: Got it. Got it. Thank you. And for my follow-up, maybe to your comments about sort of 2027 revenues from these systems—just looking at your $16 billion guide for fiscal 2027, if I still assume core Sanmina grows at high single digits, that sort of indicates ZT doing about $7 billion of revenue.

Samik Chatterjee: Got it. Thank you. For my follow-up, maybe to your comments about sort of 2027 revenues from these systems. Just looking at your $16 billion guide for fiscal 2027, if I remain on course and Sanmina grows at high single digits, that sort of indicates ZT doing about $7 billion of revenue, and you'll be exiting the year at $6 billion. Is that the right way to think about sort of where the starting point is, before some of these new opportunities come through? Just how you may size that business, how you're thinking initially about fiscal 2027. Thank you.

Speaker #6: And you'll be exiting the year at six. So, is that the right way to think about sort of where the starting point is before some of these new opportunities come through?

Speaker #6: Just help me size that business, how you're thinking initially about fiscal 2027. Thank you.

Speaker #5: Yeah. And it's just that it's early days. That's why we said 16-plus. And just a little bit of history too, Samiq. Back when we first announced the deal in May of last year, so almost a year ago, we said that we'd expected to double Sanmina within three years.

Jon Faust: Yeah. It's just that it's early days. That's why we said 16+. Just a little bit of history too, Sameek. Like, back when we first announced the deal in May of last year, so almost a year ago, we said that we'd expected to double Sanmina within three years. Then when we got to our Q4 earnings call last year, we accelerated that to within two years. That's where the $16 billion number comes from for fiscal year 2027. Now we're saying $16 billion+ because we see all the demand is there. We're still assuming at this point that the vast majority of that business will be consignment. You know, it's not entirely clear just yet. We're working through some of those details with customers.

Speaker #5: And then, when we got to our Q4 earnings call last year, we accelerated that to two. To within two years, that's where the $16 billion number comes from for fiscal year 2027.

Jon Faust: That's where the $16 billion number comes from for fiscal year 2027. Now we're saying $16 billion+ because we see all the demand is there. We're still assuming at this point that the vast majority of that business will be consignment. You know, it's not entirely clear just yet. We're working through some of those details with customers.

Speaker #5: Now we're saying $16 billion plus because we see all the demand is there. But we're still assuming at this point that the vast majority of that business will be consignment.

Speaker #5: It's not entirely clear just yet. We're working through some of those details with customers. That's why it's still early days. But we did want to make the point that we feel very confident.

Jon Faust: That's why it's still early days, but we did wanna make the point that we feel very confident. I think my words were increasingly confident, right about the revenue profile next year. This year we still gotta wait to see, you know, how much we might, you know, do in the, say, the 300 series business, kind of the current version of accelerated compute, but new for us. The growth potential from there will all come down to the customer schedules, as Jure said.

Speaker #5: I think my words were increasingly confident about the revenue profile next year. So, this year, we still have to wait to see how much we might do in, say, the $300 series business—kind of the current version of accelerated compute, but new for us.

Speaker #5: And then the growth potential from there will all come down to the customer schedules, as Jure said.

Speaker #4: Yeah. No, it’s an exciting future. And in our business, Samiq, you take one quarter at a time, but we feel very comfortable for the rest of this fiscal year.

Jure Sola: Yeah. No, it's an exciting future. You know, in our business, Sameek, you take one quarter at a time, but we feel very comfortable for the rest of this fiscal year, and I think there's more to come in the future.

Speaker #4: And I think there's more to come in the future.

Speaker #6: Got it. Got it. Great. Thank you. Thanks for taking my questions. Thank you for the warm welcome as well. Thank you.

Samik Chatterjee: Got it. Great. Thank you. Thanks for taking my questions. Thank you for the warm welcome as well. Thank you.

Speaker #4: Thanks, Samiq.

Jure Sola: Thanks, Samik.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Stephen Fox from Fox Advisors. Please go ahead.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Steven Fox from Fox Advisors. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Steven Fox from Fox Advisors. Please go ahead.

Speaker #6: Hello, Steve.

Jure Sola: Hello, Steve.

Speaker #7: Hi. Hi. Good afternoon, everybody. I guess I had a couple of questions. Maybe first, John, on the cash flows. I know that you mentioned a couple of puts and takes with CapEx, and I see it one time.

Steven Fox: Hi. Good afternoon, everybody. I guess I had a couple questions. Maybe first, Jon, on the cash flows. I know that you mentioned a couple puts and takes with CapEx, and I see a one-time item in there. But you grew revenues quarter over quarter, like $900 million, and you still generated, you know, almost $300 million of free cash flow in the quarter. Do you have a better sense now for how the combined business can sort of throw off cash on a 12-month basis? Anything you wanna sorta hold your feet to the fire at this point in terms of CapEx versus working capital, things like that. It would be helpful to get a better feel for that. I had a follow-up, if I could.

Speaker #7: Item in there. But you grew revenues quarter over quarter by $900 million, and you still generated almost $300 million of free cash flow in the quarter.

Speaker #7: Do you have a better sense now for how the combined business can sort of throw off cash on a 12-month basis? Anything you want to sort of hold your feet to the fire at this point in terms of CapEx versus working capital and things like that?

Steven Fox: Do you have a better sense now for how the combined business can sort of throw off cash on a 12-month basis? Anything you wanna sorta hold your feet to the fire at this point in terms of CapEx versus working capital, things like that. It would be helpful to get a better feel for that. I had a follow-up, if I could.

Speaker #7: It would be helpful to get a better feel for that. And then I had a follow-up, if I could.

Speaker #5: Yeah, sure, Steve. Thanks for joining. So, yeah, this quarter, Q2, was just a great cash flow from operations. I'll talk about that first before free cash flow.

Jon Faust: Yeah, sure, Steve. Thanks for joining. Yeah, this quarter, Q2, was just a great cash flow from operations. I'll talk that first before free cash flow. Almost $400 million in cash flow from operations, and it was really due to the linearity of the business and just very strong execution, right? We executed, you know, manufactured a lot, shipped a lot of product, and collected cash. If you look at the details there, you'll see it in our 10-Q. Our inventory levels came down, AR levels came down 'cause we collected very well on that front. I would kind of frame that up as linearity, and I have, to your point, learned a lot, you know, over the last, say, six to nine months, around the dynamics of the ZT Systems business.

Speaker #5: So, almost $400 million in cash flow from operations. And it was really due to the linearity of the business and just very strong execution, right?

Speaker #5: So, we executed, manufactured a lot, shipped a lot of product, and collected cash. So if you look at the details there, you'll see it in our 10-Q.

Jon Faust: If you look at the details there, you'll see it in our 10-Q. Our inventory levels came down, AR levels came down 'cause we collected very well on that front. I would kind of frame that up as linearity, and I have, to your point, learned a lot, you know, over the last, say, six to nine months, around the dynamics of the ZT Systems business.

Speaker #5: Our inventory levels came down. AR levels came down because we collected very well on that front. So, I would just kind of frame that up as linearity.

Speaker #5: And I have, to your point, learned a lot over the last, say, six to nine months around the dynamics of the ZT Systems business.

Speaker #5: And once we hit more of a production steady state with customers and get out of this transition period, even more will become clear. But very excited to generate the cash that we did this quarter.

Jon Faust: Once we hit a, you know, more of a production steady state with customers and get out of this transition period, even more will become clear. Very excited to generate the cash that we did this quarter. Now as we look ahead into Q3 and Q4, and we don't guide cash specifically, but, you know, we will start to build inventory levels, rebuild some of those inventory levels to prepare for that new accelerated compute business. They'll probably start to come more in Q4, but I expect in the near term to continue to generate cash. As I was saying in my prepared remarks, you know, I do think our leverage ratio will come within that range, you know, as we build the inventory to support the future business. We're very pleased with where we're at right now.

Speaker #5: Now, as we look ahead into Q3 and Q4—and we don't guide cash specifically—but we will start to build inventory levels, rebuild some of those inventory levels to prepare for that new accelerated compute business. That'll probably start to come more in Q4.

Jon Faust: They'll probably start to come more in Q4, but I expect in the near term to continue to generate cash. As I was saying in my prepared remarks, you know, I do think our leverage ratio will come within that range, you know, as we build the inventory to support the future business. We're very pleased with where we're at right now.

Speaker #5: But I expect, in the near term, to continue to generate cash. But as I was saying in my prepared remarks, I do think our leverage ratio will come within that range as we build the inventory to support the future business.

Speaker #5: But very pleased with where we're at right now.

Speaker #7: That's super helpful. And then, if I'm reading through all the details here correctly, it sounds like you have two main cloud customers that have generated the upside and give you confidence in the numbers.

Steven Fox: That's super helpful. If I'm reading through all the details here correctly, it sounds like you have two main cloud customers that have generated the upside and give you confidence in the numbers. I know you're doing business with, you know, all five, like Yuri said. Can you talk about, like, how we think about not just the number of cloud customers for ZT and the potential there in, like, between now and 2027, but also, like, OEM business.

Steven Fox: That's super helpful. If I'm reading through all the details here correctly, it sounds like you have two main cloud customers that have generated the upside and give you confidence in the numbers. I know you're doing business with, you know, all five, like Jure said. Can you talk about, like, how we think about not just the number of cloud customers for ZT and the potential there in, like, between now and 2027, but also, like, OEM business.

Speaker #7: I know you're doing business with all five, like Jure said. But can you talk about how we think about not just the number of cloud customers for ZT and the potential there between now and 2027, but also OEM business?

Speaker #7: I know the focus is on cloud, but can you talk a little bit about how ZT can grow with OEMs too? Thanks.

Steven Fox: Mm-hmm.

Steven Fox: I know the focus is on cloud, but can you talk a little bit about how ZT can grow, you know, with OEMs too? Thanks.

Speaker #5: Yeah, it's really both, Steve. I mean, ZT legacy was working with the handful of customers, and those are great customers that we want to maintain.

Jon Faust: It's really both, Steve. I mean, ZT Legacy was working with a handful of customers and those are great customers that we want to maintain. Part of our strategy has been to expand the number of customers that we're working with, so more hyperscale, more cloud CSP customers, but OEMs too. We're focused on both, even the Neoclouds as well. It really all comes down to maximizing the capacity that we have at the ZT plants. Then as I was saying just a few minutes ago, answering some of Rupu's questions or maybe the Sameek's, you know, if we continue to see more demand, and there's a lot of demand out there, you know, we'll look to invest, you know, to even expand beyond that.

Speaker #5: But part of our strategy has been to expand the number of customers that we're working with—so more hyperscale, more cloud, CSP customers, but OEMs too.

Speaker #5: So we're focused on both. Even the Neo Clouds as well. It really all comes down to maximizing the capacity that we have at the ZT plants.

Jon Faust: We're focused on both, even the Neoclouds as well. It really all comes down to maximizing the capacity that we have at the ZT plants. Then as I was saying just a few minutes ago, answering some of Rupu's questions or maybe the Sameek's, you know, if we continue to see more demand, and there's a lot of demand out there, you know, we'll look to invest, you know, to even expand beyond that.

Speaker #5: And then, as I was saying just a few minutes ago—answering some of Rupal's questions, or maybe it was Samiq's—if we continue to see more demand, and there's a lot of demand out there, we'll look to invest to even expand beyond that.

Speaker #5: But first things first—right now, it's focus on the customers that we're winning. Make sure that we do very good business for them. And that's why I say Q2 was a great proof point, because the ZT Systems team executed extremely well on the demand that the customers were looking for.

Jon Faust: First things first, you know, right now it's, you know, focus on the customers that we're winning, make sure that we do very good business for them. That's why I say Q2 was a great proof point because the ZT Systems team executed extremely well, right, on the demand that the customers were looking for.

Speaker #4: Yeah, but we're building plenty of capacity. Capacity is not going to be an issue, Steve.

Jure Sola: Yeah. We're building plenty of capacity. Capacity is not gonna be an issue, Steve.

Speaker #7: Understood. Thank you very much.

Steven Fox: Understood. Thank you very much.

Speaker #4: Thanks, Steve.

Jure Sola: Thanks, Steve.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Mehdi Hossaini from SIG. Your line is now open.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Mehdi Hosseini from SIG. Your line is now open.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Mehdi Hosseini from SIG. Your line is now open.

Speaker #8: Yes, sir. Thanks for taking my question and a couple of follow-ups. From my end, one is just a quick one.

Mehdi Hosseini: Yes, thanks for taking my question and a couple of follow-ups from my end. I wanted just a quick-

Speaker #6: Mehdi, hello. Mehdi, and also welcome to covering Sanmina. Hopefully, we'll have some good quarters together in years.

Jure Sola: Hello, Mehdi, and also welcome to covering Sanmina. Hopefully, we'll have some good quarters together and years.

Speaker #8: Sure, definitely. Look forward to meeting in person. A couple of follow-ups from me. And just quickly, on the fiscal year 2027 revenue target of $16 billion plus, how should I think about ZT system?

Mehdi Hosseini: Sure. Definitely look forward to meeting in person. A couple of follow-ups from me. Just quickly on the fiscal year 2027 revenue target of $16 billion-plus, how should I think about ZT Systems? Should I assume that you're focused on the core customer there at AMD and you would benefit from their ability to scale, or is there opportunity for you to diversify customer base there? I have a follow-up.

Speaker #8: Should I assume that you're focused on the core customer there, AMD, and you would benefit from their ability to scale, or is there opportunity for you to diversify your customer base there?

Speaker #8: And I have a follow-up.

Speaker #5: Yeah. Mehdi, thanks for the question. As Jure said, welcome to the call. It's great to have you on board. So right now, FY27—it's early days.

Jon Faust: Yeah, Mehdi, thanks. Thanks for the question. As Yuri said, welcome to the call. It's great to have you on board. Right now, FY 2027, it's early days. You know, I was giving Samik, when I was answering his question, a little bit of context on where this $16 billion came from, which we're now calling $16 billion plus, but it relates to some comments that we made when we first acquired ZT. We wanted to reiterate, right, that we're still very much on that trajectory. Early days to kind of call out what we would expect exactly from them. If, you know, core Sanmina continues to grow high single digits, you know, that gets us close to, say, like $10 billion, you know, next year.

Jon Faust: Yeah, Mehdi, thanks. Thanks for the question. As Jure said, welcome to the call. It's great to have you on board. Right now, FY 2027, it's early days. You know, I was giving Samik, when I was answering his question, a little bit of context on where this $16 billion came from, which we're now calling $16 billion plus, but it relates to some comments that we made when we first acquired ZT.

Speaker #5: I was giving Samiq, when I was answering his question, a little bit of context on where this $16 billion came from, which we're now calling $16 billion-plus.

Speaker #5: But it relates to some comments that we made when we first acquired ZT, so we wanted to reiterate that we're still very much on that trajectory.

Jon Faust: We wanted to reiterate, right, that we're still very much on that trajectory. Early days to kind of call out what we would expect exactly from them. If, you know, core Sanmina continues to grow high single digits, you know, that gets us close to, say, like $10 billion, you know, next year.

Speaker #5: But early days to kind of call out what we would expect exactly from them. But if, of course, Sanmina continues to grow high single digits, that gets us close to, say, like $10 billion next year.

Speaker #5: And then, as you think about what ZT would have to contribute, that would be like, say, $6 to $7 billion or so, $6 to $7 billion.

Jon Faust: As you think about what ZT would have to contribute, that would be like, say, $7 billion or so, $6 to 7 billion. Samik was doing that same math. Now, as soon as we lock down, you know, the number of customers that we're gonna work with, you know, the actual production schedules, sort out any details on rev rec and timing like that, we'll be able to give a specific guide. But we feel increasingly confident that $16 billion-plus is gonna be achievable for next year. The way that we get there is kind of just how I was answering Steve's question. We want to maintain the customers that ZT has had historically, the handful of customers that they had, but we're expanding, you know, so CSPs, OEMs and otherwise. Yeah.

Speaker #5: Samiq was doing that same math. Now, as soon as we lock down the number of customers that we're going to work with, the actual production schedules, and sort out any details on RevRec and timing like that, we'll be able to give a specific guide.

Speaker #5: But we feel increasingly confident that $16 billion-plus is going to be achievable for next year. And the way that we get there is kind of just how I was answering Steve's question.

Jon Faust: But we feel increasingly confident that $16 billion-plus is gonna be achievable for next year. The way that we get there is kind of just how I was answering Steve's question. We want to maintain the customers that ZT has had historically, the handful of customers that they had, but we're expanding, you know, so CSPs, OEMs and otherwise. Yeah.

Speaker #5: So, we want to maintain the customers that ZT has had historically—the handful of customers that they had. But we're expanding. So, CSPs, OEMs, and otherwise.

Speaker #8: Yeah.

Mehdi Hosseini: Okay.

Speaker #6: Mehdi, let me add more to the rest of the Sanmina business. The key for us, as John mentioned in his prepared statements, ZT was mainly doing the final system integration.

Jure Sola: Mehdi, let me add more to the rest of the Sanmina business. The key for us, as John mentioned in his prepared statements, ZT was mainly doing the final system integration. There is a lot of opportunity for us in, you know, to expand the vertical integration, you know, from fabricating the certain subsystem that go inside of this system that will help the growth of what we call Sanmina Core. I think it will make us a lot more important with the customers. We'll be able to accelerate time to market and so on. There's a lot of opportunity for us to expand that. There's a lot of work in front of us, but I think the future is more exciting than historical.

Speaker #6: And there's a lot of opportunity for us to expand the vertical integration. From fabricating the certain subsystems that go inside of these systems, that will help the growth of what we call Sanmina Core.

Speaker #6: I think it will make us a lot more important with the customers. We'll be able to accelerate time to market, and so on. So there's a lot of opportunity for us to expand that.

Jure Sola: I think it will make us a lot more important with the customers. We'll be able to accelerate time to market and so on. There's a lot of opportunity for us to expand that. There's a lot of work in front of us, but I think the future is more exciting than historical.

Speaker #6: There's a lot of work in front of us, but I think the future is more exciting than historical.

Speaker #8: Sure, I agree. And actually, as a follow-up to it—given opportunities, especially as we think about optimizing next-gen racks—would you need to elevate the R&D to above $10 million a quarter, or should we assume that the current R&D level can support the 15% revenue growth in FY27?

Mehdi Hosseini: Sure. Agree. Actually, as a follow-up to it, given opportunities there is, especially as we think about optimizing next-gen racks, would you need to elevate the R&D to above $10 million a quarter, or should we assume that the current R&D level can support the 15% revenue growth in FY 2027?

Speaker #6: Well, first of all, I think revenue for us is not going to be at least what we see today. As I look at 2027, 2028, demand is there.

Jure Sola: Well, first of all, I think revenue for us is not gonna be at least what we see today, as I look at the 2027, 2028 demand is there. We're gonna continue to invest not just for 2027 and 2028, we're investing for the future. We're working very close with our existing customer base, which basically, you know, is who's who. We got all the key players. We're gonna continue to invest for the growth of the business. It's a partnership. End of the day, we are an extension of our customers. Building that what I call transparent relationship and building the trust is the key in our business. If you look at the relationship with our customers well over 15, 20, we have some customers been with us over 35 years.

Speaker #6: We're going to continue to invest not just for 2027 and 2028; we're investing for the future. We're working very closely with our existing customer base, which basically is who's who.

Speaker #6: We got all the key players. So we're going to continue to invest for the growth of the business. It's a partnership. At the end of the day, we are an extension of our customers.

Jure Sola: End of the day, we are an extension of our customers. Building that what I call transparent relationship and building the trust is the key in our business. If you look at the relationship with our customers well over 15, 20, we have some customers been with us over 35 years.

Speaker #6: And building that, what I call a transparent relationship, and building the trust is the key in our business. And if you look at the relationship with our customers as well, over 15, 20—we have some customers that have been with us over 35 years.

Speaker #6: So our goal as we go into the AI business and grow their opportunity is to build a strong relationship. And we'll invest whatever it takes to be an industry leader.

Jure Sola: Our goal as we go into the AI business and growing that opportunity is to build a strong relationship, and we'll invest whatever it takes to be industry leader. Because the capabilities that we acquire from ZT are industry capabilities or leadership there, and we are investing fair amount to make sure that we build to be able to meet not just today's requirements, but also tomorrow's requirements. You know, so company's in a great position to continue to do what's right for our customers.

Speaker #6: Because the capabilities that we acquire from ZT are industry capabilities, leadership there. And we are investing a fair amount to make sure that we build to be able to meet not just today's requirements, but also tomorrow's requirements.

Speaker #6: So, the company is in a great position to continue to do what's right for our customers.

Speaker #8: Sure. Let me rephrase the question. As you—and please correct me if I'm wrong—as it is my impression that you're transitioning, or at least part of the business driven by ZT is transitioning, from EMS to a value-add ODM service provider. Would that require some additional R&D as you go through this transition?

Mehdi Hosseini: Sure. Let me rephrase the question, and please correct me if I'm wrong, as it is my impression that you're transitioning or at least part of the business driven by ZT transitioning from EMS to value-add ODM service provider. Would that require some additional R&D as you go through this transition?

Speaker #6: Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes. Definitely. Definitely will. But that's a part of the growth. As you— in our business, as long as you grow, you're going to be spending more on R&D.

Jure Sola: Yes. Definitely will. That's a part of the growth. In our business, as long as you grow, you're gonna be spending more R&D. It's a project by project, program by program that is looked at. Yeah, Sanmina will be investing to be able to create the right value and right solution for our customers.

Speaker #6: It's a project-by-project, program-by-program process that is looked at. Yeah. But Sanmina will be investing to be able to create the right value and right solution for our customers.

Mehdi Hosseini: Done. Thank you.

Speaker #6: And just to add to that too, Mehdi, we've got a strong foundation of engineering capabilities. That's where we spend our R&D dollars today. But as the business grows, to Jure's point, depending on the final customer set that we have and the opportunities that we want to pursue—whether it be vertical integration or otherwise—we could invest more.

Jon Faust: Dan, just to add to that too, Mehdi, you know, we've got a strong foundation of engineering capabilities. That's where we spend our R&D dollars today. As the business grows, to Yuri's point, depending on the final customer set that we have and the opportunities that we want to pursue, whether it be vertical integration or otherwise, you know, we could invest more. More to come. Everything that we've planned on so far is factored into the guidance that we just gave, but more to come as we look ahead into FY 2027 later this year.

Jon Faust: Dan, just to add to that too, Mehdi, you know, we've got a strong foundation of engineering capabilities. That's where we spend our R&D dollars today. As the business grows, to Jure's point, depending on the final customer set that we have and the opportunities that we want to pursue, whether it be vertical integration or otherwise, you know, we could invest more. More to come. Everything that we've planned on so far is factored into the guidance that we just gave, but more to come as we look ahead into FY 2027 later this year.

Speaker #6: So, more to come. Everything that we've planned on so far is factored into the guidance that we just gave. But more to come as we look ahead into FY27 later this year.

Speaker #8: Got it. Thank you.

Mehdi Hosseini: Got it. Thank you.

Speaker #6: Thanks, Mehdi. Operator, we have time for one more question.

Jure Sola: Thank you, Mehdi. Operator, we have time for one more question.

Speaker #9: Thank you. Sanmina, if you wish to ask a question, please press star one. Our next question comes from the line of Anya Söderström from CDOT.

Operator 2: Thank you. As a reminder, if you wish to ask a question, please press star one. Our next question comes from the line of Anja Soderstrom from Sidoti. Your line is now open.

Operator: Thank you. As a reminder, if you wish to ask a question, please press star one. Our next question comes from the line of Anja Soderstrom from Sidoti. Your line is now open.

Speaker #9: Your line is now open.

Speaker #6: Hello, Anya.

Jure Sola: Hello, Anja.

Speaker #10: Hi. Hi. Thank you for taking my question.

Anja Soderstrom: Hi. Hi. Thank you for taking my question.

Jure Sola: We save the best for the last, okay?

Speaker #6: Thank you for the last, okay?

Speaker #10: Of course. And thank you for squeezing me in. Most of my questions have been addressed, but I'm just curious—are you seeing any sort of supply chain disruptions, or input cost or difficulties to find components at all, or are you in the beginning?

Operator 1: Of course. Thank you for squeezing me in. Most of my questions have been addressed, but I'm just curious. Are you seeing any sort of supply chain disruptions or input costs or difficulties to find components at all, or are you not getting that?

Anja Soderstrom: Of course. Thank you for squeezing me in. Most of my questions have been addressed, but I'm just curious. Are you seeing any sort of supply chain disruptions or input costs or difficulties to find components at all, or are you not getting that?

Jure Sola: Yeah, definitely, Anja. There's some material shortages around the memory, custom ASICs and things like that is going on. I think it's gonna continue through rest of the year, and we'll see how things, you know, change. Yeah, definitely, material is challenging right now as we look at the rest of the year and probably, you know, potentially in 2027.

Speaker #6: Yeah, definitely, Anya. There's some material shortages around the memory, custom ASICs, and things like that. That is going on. I think it's going to continue through the rest of the year.

Speaker #6: And we'll see how things change. But yeah, definitely, material is challenging right now as we look at the rest of the year and probably, potentially, in 2027.

Speaker #10: But you don’t see any risk to your revenue in terms of that, or are you managing it?

Anja Soderstrom: You don't see any risk to your revenue, in terms of that? Or how are you managing it?

Jure Sola: I mean, Anja, in our business, we're custom manufacturing. You have to chase parts every day. You know, we manage that every day. We have a great IT system. We have great relationship with our suppliers. We work very close with our customers, you know, planning these things ahead. You know, last quarter, we could have shipped a little bit more if we were able to get every part number that we needed. Yeah, it's something that we have to manage every day, Anja.

Speaker #6: I mean, Anya, in our business—we're a custom manufacturing company—there's always, you have to chase parts every day. So we manage that every day.

Speaker #6: We have a great IT system. We have a great relationship with our suppliers. We work very closely with our customers. We plan these things ahead.

Speaker #6: But last quarter, we could have shipped a little bit more if we had been able to get every part number that we needed. And yeah, it's something that we have to manage every day, Anya.

Speaker #9: Yeah, and just to add to that too, Anya, I mean, everything that we're aware of today has been factored into our guide. To the point Jure just made, our book to bill was over 1.1 to 1.

Jon Faust: Just to add to that, too, Anya, I mean, everything that we're aware of today has been factored into our guide. You know, to the point Yuri just made, you know, our book-to-bill was over 1.1 to 1. You know, we could have shipped a lot more. I mean, if you think about the core Sanmina business, communication networks and cloud infrastructure, that's been growing 20% plus year over year for the last six quarters. Could be growing a lot more if there was more components and equipment and so forth, like, available out there. Everything that we know of as of today and the forecast from our customers, that's been factored into our guide.

Jon Faust: Just to add to that, too, Anya, I mean, everything that we're aware of today has been factored into our guide. You know, to the point Jure just made, you know, our book-to-bill was over 1.1 to 1. You know, we could have shipped a lot more. I mean, if you think about the core Sanmina business, communication networks and cloud infrastructure, that's been growing 20% plus year over year for the last six quarters.

Speaker #9: We could have shipped a lot more. I mean, if you think about the core Sanmina business—communication networks and cloud infrastructure—that’s been growing 20% plus year over year for the last six quarters.

Speaker #9: Could be growing a lot more if there were more components and equipment and so forth available out there. But everything that we know of as of today, and the forecast from our customers, that's been factored into our guide.

Jon Faust: Could be growing a lot more if there was more components and equipment and so forth, like, available out there. Everything that we know of as of today and the forecast from our customers, that's been factored into our guide.

Speaker #10: Okay. Great. Thank you. That was all from me.

Anja Soderstrom: Okay, great. Thank you. That was all for me.
