What could break the thesis?
The risk intensified during Q1 2026. CCS revenue increased 76% year over year and rose to 80% of total revenue from 70%. Communications revenue increased 69%, while Enterprise revenue increased 101%, largely because of networking switch ramps and an AI/ML compute program with one hyperscaler. ATS revenue was essentially flat year over year at $806.0 million versus $807.2 million. The Q2 baseline shows CCS still at 81% of revenue and Enterprise growth accelerating to 167% year over year, confirming continued concentration in a narrow set of growth programs. (1 intensifying)
“CCS segment revenue increased $1,399.6 million (76%) in Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025... driven by data center networking demand... Enterprise end market revenue increased $416.7 million (101%)... driven by the ramp-up of an AI/ML compute program with one of our hyperscaler customers.”
