Lastly, this call is being webcast and a replay will be available on our website for 2 weeks. And now, let me turn the call over to Kishore Seendri Boop, CEO of MaxLinear. Thank you, Brian, and good afternoon, everyone. Thank you all for joining us today. Our Q3 2019 revenue was $80,000,000, consistent with our guidance. Gross margin remained solid and operating expenses declined on disciplined execution. We also delivered $21,800,000 in strong cash flows from operations. As a percentage of our overall revenue, our Connected Home business stood at 51% infrastructure at 25% and industrial multi market was 24%. We continue to successfully execute on our critical engineering and customer engage mindstones in our strategic infrastructure and high performance analog markets. In early 2020, we expect production adoption of our 100 gigabit and 400 gigabit MAM4 DSP SOCs in the hyperscale data center market. We are also excited about our 1st 5G wireless Tier 1 OEM design win for our industry leading 14 nanometer CMOS 4x4 massive MIMO quad RF transceiver SoC solution. Are on track to see initial revenue in 2020 for our wireless RF transceivers in the 5G market. We continue to make significant strides in our data center customer initiatives. In the near term, we have further solidified our position with our Tier 1 hyperscale data center and customer ahead of their industry first 400 gigabit RAM. At ECOC, we announced our 2nd generation Tilrayte M4 DSP SOC fiber optic portfolio optimized for single Lambda 100 gigabit QSFP and SFP modules. We also announced that Delta Electronics And Centerra Photonics have developed Doctor, FR, and LR optical modules for data center leveraging our 2nd gen solution. We believe single Lambda 100 gigabit and 400 gigabit solutions will dominate data center and 5g wireless front haul deployments over the next several years. We are well positioned to be one of the leaders in this market. In 5G wireless, we are excited about our first 5G wireless RF transceiver Tier 1 OEM customer design win. In Q3, we accelerated the pace of our customer engagements for our industry leading 5G RF transceiver SOC solution. Early customer feedback confirms that we are hitting the demanding performance and features required by this market. As a reminder, our 5G RF transceiver has the highest performance, double the bandwidth and superior system level integration at up to 5 percent low power consumption versus competition. Strategically, we are focusing on growing our content on a per system remote radio unit basis, enabled an expanding product offering and Tier 1 customer engagements. In wireless backhaul, we faced headwinds in Q3 due mainly to the Huawei strictions. However, we have confidence in our ability to grow backhaul revenues in 2020 based on the layering of several new Tier 1 OEM options in the SoC is the only solution to support channel aggregation with double data capacity in existing available spectrum for current and future 5G transport networks. In the connected home, in Q3, we saw a good follow through on our MOCA 2.5 system builds at Verizon. However, we do expect to pause in Q4 as the supply chain transitions from the bill phase to the launch phase. Our cable data business stabilized in Q3 though it is too still early to call a bottom. However, we have design engagement supporting the next wave of DOCS 3.1 appointment for North America and for expansion outside North America. Overall, we are on track with our strategic diversification initiatives to drive strong future revenue growth in 5G wireless optical data center and high performance analog power and industrial markets. With that, let me turn the call over to Mr. Steve Litchfield, our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Corporate Strategy Officer for a review of the Q3 business results and our forward guidance. Thank you, Kishore. I will first review our Q3 2019 results and then further discuss our outlook for Q4 2019. On revenue of $80,000,000, we saw our Connected Home business up 5% sequentially with increases in connectivity and cable data offering a step down in satellite revenues, which continues to deteriorate. Our infrastructure business decreased 11% driven by a slowdown across high speed interconnect, wireless backhaul and HPA categories. Our industrial multi market business was down 9% sequentially. I'd like to give a brief update on Huawei. We did receive clearance to ship certain products to Huawei late in the quarter and have re engaged with them. That said, the demand picture of Huawei remains highly uncertain, mainly due to the evolving on other components within our systems and various inventory levels associated with each. Gas and non GAAP gross margins for the 3rd quarter were approximately 52.4% and 63.1 percent of revenue respectively. This compares to GAAP gross margin guidance of 52% to 52.5% and non GAAP gross margin guidance of 63% to 63.5%. The delta between GAAP and non GAAP gross margins in the 3rd quarter reflects the amortization of $8,500,000 of purchased intangible assets from previous acquisitions and $200,000 of stock based compensation. 3rd quarter GAAP operating expenses were approximately 45,200,000 which was below our GAAP guidance of 46,500,000 to 47,500,000 due to mainly lower than expected stock based bonus accruals. GAAP operating expenses included stock based compensation and stock based bonus accruals of 8,500,000 and amortization of purchased intangible assets of $5,700,000. Non GAAP operating expenses were $30,800,000, which was down $2,000,000 sequential and below our non GAAP guidance of $31,000,000 to $32,000,000 due to disciplined expense management We've been successful managing the spin during this transitional period. After sequential reductions, the last three quarters, our quarterly non GAAP OpEx run rate was down almost 14% activities in the third quarter of 2019 was $21,800,000 versus $12,400,000 generated in the second quarter of 2019. We made $20,000,000 in debt prepayments during the quarter towards our term loan as we continue to focus on debt paydown with our cash generation. This brings the total debt prepayments to $213,000,000 and our loan balance down to 212,000,000 Our day sales outstanding for the third quarter was approximately 64 days, which was slightly above the prior quarter day sales sales outstanding of 63 days. Our inventory turns increased to 3.8 compared to 3.6 in the second quarter. That leads me to our guidance. We currently expect revenue percent sequentially driven primarily by a pause in connectivity shipments related to inventory digestion after a strong build in Q3 Q2 and Q3. Significant weakness in the satellite market, which will now become an insignificant portion of our revenues, and a subdued recovery in the cable data due to continued macro headwinds in the cable market. We expect infrastructure revenue to be flat to slightly up owing to a recovery in wireless backhaul, including Huawei demand levels and expected early stage PAM4 DSP shipments. Offset by an expected approximately flat to slightly down. We expect Fourth quarter GAAP gross profit margin to be approximately 50 2% to 52.5 percent of revenue and non GAAP gross profit margins to be approximately 63.5% to 64% of revenue. Up sequentially due to improved mix and a continued focus on COGS improvement. Our gross profit margin percentage forecast could vary plus or minus 2% depending on the product mix and other factors. Even as we focused on reducing our run rate spend levels, we continue to fund strategic development programs targeting delivering strong top line in the business. As such, we expect Q4 2019 GAAP operating expenses to decline approximately 1,000,000 quarter on quarter to a range of $44,000,000 to $44,500,000, driven mainly by reductions in professional fees and prototyping expenses. We expect Q4 2019 non GAAP operating expenses to be down approximately $800,000 sequentially to a range of 29,500,000 to 30,500,000. We expect GAAP tax expense to be approximately 0 and a non GAAP tax rate of 5%. We expect interest and other expenses in the quarter to be $2,600,000 to $2,700,000. In closing, we are pleased to report progress in our infrastructure initiatives highlighted by our expanding product portfolio and design engagements in the 400 gig data center market, engineering and customer milestones in our 5G massive MIMO transceiver platform. And execution on our infrastructure power management development initiatives. As we continue to navigate through a turbulent environment the near term we will focus on maintaining strong profitability and cash flow generation as well as executing on our strategic investments. These infrastructure initiatives and strong engineering execution combined with upcoming upgrade cycles in the data center and wireless markets. Position us well to deliver strong leverage in our business as many of the new product rollouts start to layer in incremental revenue streams in 2020. With that, Our first question comes from Alessandra Vecchi with William Blair. Please state your question. Hi guys. Congratulations on a good quarter and a tough environment and especially on the 5G OEM win. In the PAM4 traction. On the connected home side though, So you guys said that the Verizon had, sort of picked up with the MoCA shipments and that was part of the contribution to Q3. If I do the math correctly on Q4, it implies sort of a $30,000,000 connected home ramp is significantly more than the ramp in Q2, Q3. Can you, Steve, can you sort of help me understand better where the rest of the delta is coming from? So, hi, Alex. I'm not quite sure that followed the thinking, but let me take a stab at it. So, yeah, we did talk about pause and Verizon. I mean, the two pieces that brought down our Connected Home business, the guidance specifically in Q4, were, yes, the MOCA ramp at Verizon. So that had a big build up in Q2, Q3, And now we're seeing a pause there. There's a number of reasons for that, but we're seeing that pause right now. The other one is satellite. I mentioned a couple of times in the prepared remarks, the satellite business is down significantly. Our guidance in particular is down We've kind of expected this business to bottom at some point. It really hasn't at this point. It's down to a relatively low number I mean, low single digits on a quarterly basis. So the bad is that it's down by a large amount from the previous quarter. But the positive here is that going forward, it's almost insignificant to our revenues in the future. Okay. That was helpful. And then can you help us maybe understand a little bit, how to think about the timing of the Verizon ramps from these sort of trials to sort of call it volume production? Yes. So as we stated, I mean, you've kind of gone through this build phase and as it launches though, we'll see some follow through. I mean, we see it pause probably in Q1, but I expect it does pick up. I don't know if it's early Q2, but I mean, I would expect at some point in Q2 that it would start to recover. Our next question comes from Ross Seymore with Deutsche Bank. Please state your question. Thank you for letting me ask a question. Could you just clarify, what MaxLinear is exactly shipping to Huawei and what licenses you've received, approval to ship for? And I guess, is that the full, run rate of Huawei sales at this point, or should we expect more licenses to be approved in the future? Yes, Chi, so I don't want to go through every single product and what was approved and not approved. We do ship most of these products show up in our infrastructure in market. They're HPA as well as wireless products. They're So these guys are a big wireless backhaul, but also access consumer of our products. So we did get approval. So I think that was the positive in the quarter. It was late in the quarter. So there was a fairly small amount of contribution. Going forward, I think it's encouraging. But as I stated, there is a fair amount of inventory that they've kind of built up was a lot of speculation around this, early in the year. I think that's playing out, as to be in the case. But I think we are encouraged that we are engaged and there's good potential as we look into 2020. Okay, great. And the, you guided the industrial, multi market segment, flat to slightly down that seems to be a little bit better than other broader peers. Can you discuss what you're seeing in that end market given the macro headwinds? Sure. Look, I wouldn't necessarily read too much into that. We had a pretty quarter in Q3. It was down a fair amount. And, this has been very lumpy for us. I think if we started out softer in Q3 than we had expected. So while we do see it being flat to slightly down, We got a number of new products. We've had some headwinds on a couple of products like on the server side, for example, that has been headwind, especially in Q3, we're optimistic that as we in the next couple of quarters, we'll see some recovery there. Our next question comes from Quinn Bolton with Needham And Company. Please state your question. Hey guys, just wanted to follow-up on the Connected Home. It sounds like the satellite business is now down to immaterial levels at a low single digit percentage of revenue. It sounds like the MoCA Connectivity business is probably not far off that level in Q4. Just wanted to see if you would confirm that. If that's the case, would you sort of think going forward that admittedly off a lower base, we finally see stabilization in connected home with potentially some growth on the cable data side? Or is it premature to call for stabilization? Yes, Quinn. Look, I think you accurately captured what we're trying to say. I mean, definitely satellite and moke are down to levels that are super, super low. Hopefully, that is indeed the bottom. At a minimum, we've mitigated tons of tons of risk at this point. With regard to the cable data side, I would say moving into 2020. I think we actually hesitant to say this, but it actually does feel a little bit better. I think our market share is definitely in a good place. We're not expecting some big aggressive ramp, but definitely feel like we're in a much better place looking out over the next few quarters. Great. Second question, just wanted to sort of get your thoughts. It seems pretty clear coming out of the ECO show that the largest hyper scaler looking to adopt 400 gig modules is facing a number of delays. I think some of it is just the cost of the it nearly a thousand bucks a module. Some of it's firmware issues, but it seems like they've significantly reduced their potential demand for 400 gig Doctor4 modules in 2020. How does that affect your business? Or, if that's tough to answer could you give us your sense as to how many 400 gig DR 4s might be shipped to the entire hyperscale market in 2020 so we can try and level set the models? So, Quinn, I think that what you gather at the end of EECOC is probably accurate on the readiness of the modules However, regarding the cost structure of the module, that is not correct. I mean, if you look at any previous generation of product, at this phase of trials soaking, they are in that price range. Based on what we know and the people we are working with, who are qualified in various stages of deploy of trial deployments or the pre phase for a ramp, we don't see the cost as an issue. So regarding the reduction in the forecast for what big hyperscale data center guys would ramp. Now that's a purely calendar event. It's it is not driven by that because of the cost, they're going to deploy less. They're committed to ramping this new generation of data centers. And if the calendar slips, does the volume for the calendar year? So I would just say whatever model you have, you're delayed on the TAM by 6 months will be just fine. So and I do not know what you're resetting to, but it's based on the number of data centers that are built and so on and so forth. And you layer the 1st hyperscale data center person, the company in the first half of this year starting of second year of 2020 starting. And the layer in the next one at the second half of the following year. I think the math will just work itself out. So I'm not, at all, seeing a picture where their volumes are going to be down because of the cost structure. I just see it as a delay in the qualification process. As far as I'm concerned, primarily, I know it's more firmware type of issues, much more than a cost structure based issue. So I would like to correct the sense of the cost structure of the module. Thank you, Kishore, for that. And then just lastly, obviously, you guys big announcement for the 4x4 transceiver for 5G. Can you answer just a couple of questions? 1, hopefully that's not with Huawei because then perhaps it would be subject to shipment bans. But can you confirm that, that design win wouldn't be affected by any current entity list, issues in place. And then second, is I assume this is a sub-six gigahertz radio, but can you give us any more detail? Is it sort of targeting a specific geography? Is it a worldwide band how big could this platform be for this Tier 1 customer? Quinn, obviously, there are 4 top tier OEMs based on worldwide shipments of wireless access products. And there are 2 or 3 others that do matter that because of all these tariff environment, how the is going to get played out. We are being evaluable by all of them, and we have a design win with the Tier 1 OEM from Europe. Okay. That much, I can confirm. So it will not be subject so far as we know to the regulatory environment. But before I go further, I want to say that And you have heard some earnings calls from, from a substitute product companies that set FPGs and so on and so forth. Story we have told about FPG is being replaced by ASIC solution that is really happening. It is that much of the volume reductions, those FPGA companies may be referring to really more related to the China geography rather than to any European entity OEM. That's our that's our statement. So we're very just leading up to all the big volumes in 5G are happening in China. They're at least a couple of years ahead on the volume situation. While there is a lot of excitement in North America, 5G. It's primarily in millimeter wave and the viability of broadcast millimeter wave is really, really questionable the volumes are really tiny and the ASPs are high temporarily, but the viability in the broadcast market is still challenged. So all the worldwide deployment of FID are in the sub-six gigahertz band, and they will be for the next several years to come. And that's where we have our design win on the sub-six gigahertz band. And we hope to announce that we have other design wins by the end of the year and hopefully by the Mobile World Congress for sure. And we're feeling quite optimistic that ours is the best product in the marketplace. And by the time we are there in Mobile World Congress, hopefully have announced announcing and maybe another new generation product to address a bigger time. So, we feel very good where we are positioned. Thank you, Keishar. Our next question comes from Gary Mobley with Wells Fargo Securities. Please state your question. Hey, guys. I just wanted to follow-up on the last line of questions relating to the RF transceiver. If I'm not mistaken, this market is on pace to be roughly, what, $700,000,000 to $800,000,000 in a few years' time. And based on the way you described your Tier 1 customer, it sounds like it's Nokia and sounds like perhaps your market share opportunity in this $800,000,000 market could be roughly 10% or 12%. Can you confirm based on the tier 1 design win, whether or not that can actually translate into roughly $100,000,000 in annual sales? So Gary, that's very, very difficult for us to see. I just want to, I want to be very candid when these platforms are selected. They do a number of platforms throughout the yearly process and how much volume each platform gets it's unknown at this stage. However, having been selected on a platform, you can assume that you'll also make subsequent platforms potentially you share with another supplier. We do not know at this point, would that be? So to the extent that there are 3 players in this market outside of what I say, Huawei internal sourcing being a very, very strong push internally. So we would say that we are among the 3 potential suppliers for the transceiver market. I think you would want to use that from your own calculation of what our design wins could imply. But having said that, you want end that the real ramps are going to be happening even in China towards the end of the year. The ramping ramps will be happening as they transition to lower costs, what I call generation of system level platform design. And that's what we are trying to catch as a company. So the end market still remains China, we believe in the U. S. It'll roll through later on to potentially T Mobile and Sprint. A speculation or confirmation for anybody. So that would be the cadence in which 5G would roll out in the world. Okay. All right. And on the topic of the Connected Home business, you mentioned the tough times for the satellite business. Is that inclusive of both the set top box business, which is mostly over in Europe and then as well the DBS Outdoor unit? I think when we speak of our satellite business, we do not differentiate between, we have never had the project between gateway or satellite outdoor unit business. So and we have never differentiated it in Europe or North America markets because of basically 3 major satellite providers in the world in the umbrella. It's just speak. So I do not think it matters at that level. Okay. I guess the reason I'm asking is that, of course, one of your main competitors in customer pay TV customer premise equipment is getting slapped on the risk by the EU or perhaps more than that. And perhaps that creates more of a level playing field for competitors. And so we just too far down the road and you maybe not paying as much attention to this market or is this or is there really an opportunity for you to maybe take back some share? It's really one cannot, this viewed that what the U. S. Done should bode well for us in what ways we are not sure. And I think there will be other tools beyond slapping risk. That they could have used, but they have not unfortunately. So we'll just cross our fingers and wait. Not yet. So I think it's definitely a positive news, but at this point, our focus and strategy has been on infrastructure investments. In data center, high performance, analog, industrial, and 5G wireless, we're doubling down on that and we are focused on growing those businesses. All right. Great. Thank you guys. Thank you. Our next question comes from Bill Peterson with JP Morgan. Please state your question. Yes, hi. Thanks for taking the question and congrats on the transceiver win. I wanted to ask another question related to Huawei. And there's been a lot of speculation that they're really going to pass for in sourcing. Concerning the existing business, things like that call, I mean, is there a chance that this can never come back? And then are they, are they still telling you they're going to buy it as just a matter of time? Or, I mean, it's kind of a question on the engagements, are they still actively looking to buy these in the future or how do you how do you see that coming back over time? So I think, Bill, look, we're very cautious on our expectations with Huawei at this point, especially as it relates to revenues and numbers that we're providing to the street. I think that being said, I think we are encouraged by our relationship and I guess as we're positioned there for the long term. Okay, that's fair. Returning to Connected Home, I guess, kind of more like a longer term question. CapEx slows me down, you look at some of the, I think, Comcast had their earnings today and are kind of still talking about capital intensity declining and continuing to decline. I know our analysts have CapEx down this year and next year. What does it take, I guess, from the broader perspective to drive investments? Do we need to do full duplex? And I know in the case of full duplex, I believe Cisco is kind of putting their program burner, the cable guys don't seem to be in a rush. What from a, I guess, a longer term perspective can kind of really turn that business around? So, Bill, obviously, 1st and foremost, I want to get back to what Steve said in his remarks, in his prepared remarks, we actually feel pretty good where our share stands and some level of traction for recovery in our share more than what we have slower even in 2019 than one would have ever imagined. And so I think the recovery happens in a way that, the threat from the fiber deployments that are AT and T and Verizon are embarking on pretty strongly. And in fact, you can see what's happening to our MoCA products in the Verizon. I mean, they're coming very aggressively. Rolling on MoCA because they want much more bandwidth in the home that is high quality of service distribution inside the home for data networks. So I think that, the way this is going to change is as the aggressive behavior of Verizon and AT and T happened in the various metropolitan areas in the East Coast And Northeast, then the Comcast of the World will have to respond with increased bandwidth offerings and that will drive growth back into the system. Does it happen next year? We do not know that in the North America, but We do know that other regions are going to start coming online on DOCSIS 3.1 deployment, and we should benefit from that. Okay. Thanks for that. Good luck. Our next question comes from Tore Svanberg with Stifel. Please state your question. Yes, thank you. I know Telluride is not ramping yet, but, as far as you can, Kishore, could you talk a little bit more about the roadmap beyond Telluride, you know, 16 nanometer going to 7 nanometer. You know, just trying to understand sort of the investment that's going to continue to go into that segment going forward? So, Tore, obviously, we do not talk about nodes. We never discuss our technology nodes as a future investment. We always announce technology node when the product is announced. So obviously, what are the products we've developed in the market? They've always been the best in class in terms of their performance and integration levels and so forth. We have done that with the Telluride product as well. So we are committed to the roadmap being very, very robust on the technology fronting as well. And remember that, it's not just about the data set aside. We actually take advantage of the technology nodes we develop in the data set aside on our wireless markets as well. So, so we feel that we are on track to be offering newer products in the next 18 months and in between. And our OpEx reflects a spend level that will make us be able to do that without compromising any way if this question is being motivated by the OpEx discipline, as we call it, it's really OpEx discipline on markets that are don't need investments versus OpEx in markets where if you launch products today, we have high quality, high growth revenues in the future. And I think translating that to his infrastructure investment with his optical data center wireless and even our high performance analog power and market investments that are ongoing now. Very good. And moving on to wireless infrastructure, just trying to sort of understand the partnerships and things like that. Do do you win the business straight from the OEM or is there an element of reference design here as well? Perhaps with some processor companies, or is it just purely you and the OEM? So, in this market, there is no reference design that works for 5G wireless access deployment, whether it's active internet systems or remote radio units, right? I think I want to get back to the strategy that we outlined 3 years ago. One of the reasons we have gone into the infrastructure market is because we don't want to have to be in anybody's reference design. Don't want to be different than anybody else's digital back end processor. We want to be in control of our own destiny. So the next best partnership you can have is directly with the OEM. In the wireless market, our front end directly interfaces with the digital front ends at the OEMs themselves develop. So you really have to win the designs OEM by OEM with their DFE front end. So that's how we have won this selection. And, this is also a result of, sorry, joint development agreement and, Mo news that we have in we had in place before, even we embarked on this process to get into 5G wireless markets. So yes, we've valued on our own. Nobody helped us. And we are helping our customers to win. Let's put it that way. Very good. Just one last question. I know you don't give calendar year guidance or calendar 20 guidance, but if you look at the three segments connected home and industrial. I mean, I assume you're expecting growth in infrastructure, but if you look at the other 2, assuming the market stay flat. Is there anything within each one that you can talk about, where you could perhaps see some growth in those two segments? Yes, Tore. I mean, you're right. We don't give specific guidance out that far. As you pointed out, look, our infrastructure business is really set up to grow nicely in 2020, albeit the starting points a little later, but we really are confident in backhaul, very confident access starts to contribute in 20 And, and so that piece of the and on top of that, the PAM4 DSP product will have a nice contribution as well. So all of that will lead to very good year over year growth in 2020. The, Connected Home is the one that we would expect that to be down kind of given the levels that we've come down to. I mean, I think it improves throughout the year, but on a year over year basis, it's likely to be down. And then on the industrial and multi market front, look, it's been a rough 2019. I'm just, I'd say more from a market cyclicality standpoint, I think we see some modest improvements in 2020. Ladies and gentlemen, there are no further questions at this time. Thank you. Thank you, operator. We'll be participating at the Stifel 2019 Midwest 1 on 1 Growth Conference in Chicago on November 7. The Needham Networking Communication Security Conference in New York on November 12th, the Wells Fargo TMT Summit in Las Vegas on December 4th, and the Barclays Global Technology, Media And Telecommunications Conference in San Francisco on December 11. So we hope to see many of you there. With that being said, we thank you all for joining us today and we look forward to reporting on our progress to you next quarter. Thank you very much. Thank you. This concludes today's conference. Act. Have a great day.
