Fabrinet posted a strong QQ3 2025 results package, with revenue of $872 million and non-GAAP EPS of $2.52, both above guidance. The quarter was characterized by a rebound in Optical Communications driven by Telecom leadership, offset by near-term softness in Datacom as a large customer undergoes a product transition. Automotive within Non-Optical Communications led growth outside Optical, with Automotive up 76% YoY. The company also announced a direct AWS relationship, supported by a warrant for up to 1% of outstanding shares, signaling a strategic, multiyear growth driver that should begin to contribute meaningfully in FY2026. Fabrinet continued to deploy capital discipline (cash and short-term investments ~$951M; free cash flow of ~$45M; $35M in share repurchases in the quarter) and progressed Building 10 to meet longer‑term capacity needs. Management guided Q4 revenue of $860–$900 million and diluted EPS of $2.55–$2.70, acknowledging near-term margin headwinds from ongoing product ramps while emphasizing several durable growth catalysts. The combination of a resilient balance sheet, a clear multiyear growth runway (including 1.6T Datacom ramp, 400ZR/DcI momentum, Ciena win ramp, and the AWS relationship), and a favorable telecom cycle underpins an upbeat longer‑term investment thesis. However, investors should monitor: timing and magnitude of new program ramps (notably 1.6T and AWS), Datacom recovery timing, tariff risk exposure, and the ability to translate non-Optical growth into sustained margin expansion.
