MRVL’s Q2 Revenue Guidance

Marvell guided second-quarter revenue to $2.70 billion, plus or minus 5%, topping estimates of $2.60 billion. It also forecast adjusted earnings of $0.93 per share, above estimates of $0.90 apiece.

“Marvell delivered record first-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $2.418 billion, up 28% year-over-year, and guided second-quarter revenue to $2.7 billion at the mid-point, representing 35% year-over-year growth. We expect revenue growth to continue accelerating each quarter throughout fiscal 2027, driven by continued strength in our data center business,” said Matt Murphy, Marvell’s Chairman and CEO.

MRVL Lifts Outlook On Strong AI Demand

“We are seeing exceptional AI-related bookings, and as a result, we are significantly raising Marvell’s revenue outlook for both fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2028 compared with the guidance we provided last quarter,” said Murphy.

On the improved outlook, Murphy said that it was “driven by strong demand across a broad set of Marvell solutions, including 800G and 1.6T scale-out optics, 51.2T Ethernet scale-out switches, scale-up optical solutions for NPO and CPO applications, scale-across datacenter interconnect modules, and custom XPU and XPU-attach solutions.”

According to a Reuters report, US tech giants including Alphabet (GOOGL) and Amazon (AMZN) are expected to spend more than $700 billion on AI infrastructure this year, up sharply from about $400 billion in 2025.
