Craig-Hallum analyst Tony Stoss pointed to Corsair’s revenue guidance of $1.4 billion for the fiscal year 2026, reflecting a year-on-year decline. The company reported $1.47 billion in fiscal 2025 revenue.
However, the firm said that Corsair’s guidance for an increase in adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (AEBITDA) implies continued benefits from memory pricing, as the company focuses on higher-margin business.

Corsair Says It Is Focusing On Improving Quality Of Growth
The gaming company said in its announcement that it is focusing on the quality of growth by investing in platforms that can scale across its portfolio.
“Successful new product launches, smart inventory management, coupled with our supply chain flexibility, enabled us to navigate a memory-constrained market, shifting trade regulations and tariffs,” said Corsair CEO Thi La.
The company said that while its FY26 revenue is expected to decline 5% YoY, the Gamer and Creator Peripherals segment is expected to grow in double digits. However, it remains cautious about its Gaming Components and Systems segment due to ongoing global semiconductor shortages.
