Management also guided for a strong 9% sequential jump in revenue in the first quarter, with a guide for $0.79 in adjusted EPS. The reported results and guidance both handily beat analysts&#8217; expectations. <\/p>\n<p>On a more granular level, Marvell management said it expected data center revenue to grow 40% in fiscal 2027 (its current fiscal year), which is higher than the average analyst estimate of 25%. Over the past year, there has been some consternation about whether Marvell has lost market share with its largest customer, <strong>Amazon<\/strong>, for Amazon&#8217;s custom Trainium chips.<\/p>\n<p>However, the forward guidance indicates that the all-important XPU and XPU-attach business, in which Marvell provides crucial IP for custom AI chips, is alive and well. Notably, Marvell has also diversified its customer base, adding <strong>Microsoft<\/strong> to its roster. Microsoft unveiled its updated XPU, the Maia2 chip, back in January. Additionally, the advent of agentic inference could support higher-than-expected growth in the networking part of AI infrastructure, where Marvell excels. <\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Squares and light suggesting chip communications. . \" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"880\" height=\"451\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"h-auto max-w-full rounded object-contain\" style=\"color:transparent\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 880px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=320&#038;op=resize 320w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=384&#038;op=resize 384w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=640&#038;op=resize 640w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=750&#038;op=resize 750w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=828&#038;op=resize 828w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=1080&#038;op=resize 1080w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=1200&#038;op=resize 1200w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=1920&#038;op=resize 1920w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=2048&#038;op=resize 2048w, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=3840&#038;op=resize 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F864011%2Fgettyimages-2148123501-1.jpg&#038;w=3840&#038;op=resize\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">Image source: Getty Images.<\/p>\n<p>The networking factor is likely what led to the late-month announcement that Nvidia will invest $2 billion in Marvell.
