CAMPBELL, Calif. - February 12, 2026 - Arteris, Inc. (Nasdaq: AIP), a leading provider of semiconductor technology for accelerating innovation in the AI era, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 and provided estimated first quarter and full year 2026 guidance.

“In the fourth quarter of 2025, we again delivered strong financial results, including a new record of Annual Contract Value plus royalties reaching $83.6 million, representing 28% year-over-year growth. During the quarter, our customers surpassed the milestone of more than four billion systems shipped with SoCs connected by Arteris System IP, and we enjoyed royalty growth of 50% year-over-year,” said K. Charles Janac, President and CEO of Arteris. “As cybersecurity threats intensify not just in software but the underlying hardware used across data centers, edge devices, and mission-critical systems, our recent acquisition of Cycuity strengthens Arteris’ ability to help customers secure data movement in silicon through proven technology and deep domain expertise. Combined with the acceleration of AI use in semiconductors and the ever increasing SoC complexities created by the proliferation of chiplet-based, multi-die architectures, Arteris is well positioned to deliver on these transformative opportunities,” concluded Janac.

•Revenue of $20.1 million, up 30% year-over-year

•Annual Contract Value (ACV) plus royalties of $83.6 million, up 28% year-over-year, growing to the highest level we have ever reported

•Remaining performance obligation (RPO) of $116.8 million, up 32% year-over-year, growing to the highest level we have ever reported. We expect approximately half of our RPO will be recognized as revenue in 2026. This projection excludes cancelable and non-cancelable Flexible Spending Accounts.

•Operating loss of $8.5 million, compared to an operating loss of $7.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2024

•Non-GAAP operating loss of $2.2 million, compared to a Non-GAAP operating loss of $2.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2024

•Net loss of $8.5 million or $0.19 per share

•Non-GAAP net loss of $2.3 million or $0.05 per share

•Non-GAAP free cash flow of positive $3.0 million or 15% of revenue

•Revenue of $70.6 million, up 22% year-over-year

•Variable royalties of $6.6 million, up 50% year-over-year

•Operating loss of $33.1 million, compared to an operating loss of $31.6 million for the year ended 2024

•Non-GAAP operating loss of $12.5 million, compared to a Non-GAAP operating loss of $14.8 million for the year ended 2024

•Net loss of $34.7 million or $0.82 per share

•Non-GAAP net loss of $14.1 million or $0.33 per share

•Non-GAAP free cash flow of positive $5.3 million or 8% of revenue

•In January 2026, we closed the acquisition of Cycuity, a leading provider of semiconductor security verification software. This acquisition strengthens Arteris’ product portfolio, enabling customers to improve security in IP blocks, chiplets, SoCs and firmware;

•Our customers have shipped over four billion SoC chips and chiplets incorporating Arteris network-on-chip technology as the underlying interconnect since Arters' inception;

•FlexGen smart NoC IP has seen strong customer adoption, ending the year with over 30 production device deployments by 10 different customers;

•In February 2026, we announced NXP’s expanded use of Arteris products across its AI enabled silicon solutions for intelligent vehicles, advanced industrial systems, and consumer electronics. This deployment includes Ncore cache coherent interconnect, FlexNoC non-coherent interconnect, CodaCache last-level cache IP, and Magillem software for SoC integration;

•We announced that Black Sesame is licensing both Ncore and FlexNoC IP for its next-generation of advanced automotive semiconductors;

•Blaize deployed FlexNoC IP for its Blaize AI platform, delivering a programmable, energy-efficient solution spanning edge and cloud-based AI; and

•Arteris became a founding member of the CHASSIS program, an initiative led by Bosch and includes automotive OEMs such as BMW, Renault, and Stellantis, with the goal of creating an open automotive chiplet platform.

To supplement our financial results, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to understand and evaluate our core performance. These non-GAAP measures, which may be different than similarly-titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define "Non-GAAP gross profit" and "Non-GAAP gross margin" as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin, respectively, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense included in cost of revenue and amortization of acquired intangible assets included in cost of revenue. We define “Non-GAAP loss from operations” as our GAAP loss from operations adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related costs. We define “Non-GAAP net loss” as our net loss adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related costs.

We define “Non-GAAP net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted”, as our Non-GAAP net loss divided by our GAAP weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period on a basic or diluted basis, respectively. Management uses this non-GAAP measure to evaluate the performance of our business on a comparable basis from period to period.

The above items are excluded from our Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP loss from operations and Non-GAAP net loss because these items are non-cash in nature, or are not indicative of our core operating performance, and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP loss from operations and Non-GAAP net loss provide useful supplemental information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance.

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment. We believe that free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors, even if negative, about the amount of cash provided by (used in) our operations other than that used for investments in property and equipment.

Annual Contract Value (ACV) – we define Annual Contract Value for an individual customer agreement as the total fixed fees under the agreement divided by the number of years in the agreement term. Our total ACV is the aggregate ACVs for all our customers as measured at a given point in time. Total fixed fees includes licensing, support and maintenance and other fixed fees under IP licensing or software licensing agreements but excludes variable revenue derived from licensing agreements with customers, particularly royalties. We define ACV plus royalties as ACV plus the trailing-twelve-months variable royalties and other revenue.

Confirmed Design Starts – we define Confirmed Design Starts as when customers confirm their commencement of new semiconductor designs using our interconnect IP and notify us. Confirmed Design Starts is a metric management uses to assess the activity level of our customers in terms of the number of new semiconductor designs that are started using our interconnect IP in a given period. We believe that the number of Confirmed Design Starts is an important indicator of the growth of our business and future royalty revenue trends.

Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO) – we define Remaining Performance Obligations as the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including deferred revenue, billed and unbilled cancelable and non-cancelable contracted amounts.

(1) Represents the amortization expenses of our intangible assets attributable to our acquisitions.

(2) Includes advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees associated with the Cycuity acquisition and recorded in general and administrative.

(3) Our GAAP tax provision is primarily related to foreign withholding taxes and income tax in profitable foreign jurisdictions. We maintain a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets in the US. Accordingly, there is no significant tax impact associated with these Non-GAAP adjustments.

(4) Reflects the aggregate adjustments made to reconcile Non-GAAP net loss to our net loss as noted in the above table, divided by the GAAP diluted weighted average number of shares of the relevant period.
