Marvell delivered record revenue of $2.418 billion (+28% YOY) in FY2027-Q1, powered by data center strength at $1.8 billion representing 76% of total revenue. Management raised FY27 full-year revenue guidance to approximately $11.5 billion (~40% YOY growth) and FY28 guidance to $16.5 billion (~45% YOY growth, $1.5 billion above prior outlook), with data center growth projections accelerating from 46% in FY26 to 50% in FY27 to 55% in FY28. Interconnect growth expectations for FY27 were raised from 50% to more than 70% YOY, while custom silicon is on track to more than double in FY28 with management reaffirming line of sight to $10 billion+ in custom revenue by FY29. An expanded NVIDIA partnership spanning silicon photonics, NVLink fusion, and AI RAN further broadened the addressable market.
