Good afternoon, and welcome to the Marvell Technology Inc.'s First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2025 Earnings Conference Call. All participants will be in listen-only mode. [Operator Instructions] After today’s presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. Please note that this event is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to Mr. Ashish Saran, Senior Vice President of Investor Relations. Please go ahead, sir.

Thank you and good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to Marvell's first fiscal quarter 2025 earnings call. Joining me today are Matt Murphy, Marvell's Chairman and CEO; and Willem Meintjes, our CFO. Let me remind everyone that certain comments made today include forward-looking statements, which are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from management's current expectations. Please review the cautionary statements and risk factors contained in our earnings press release, which we filed with the SEC today and posted on our website as well as our most recent 10-K and 10-Q filings. We do not intend to update our forward-looking statements. During our call today, we will refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation between our GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is available in the Investor Relations section of our website. Let me now turn the call over to Matt for his comments on the quarter. Matt?

Thanks, Ashish and good afternoon, everyone. For the first quarter of fiscal 2025, Marvell delivered revenue of $1.16 billion, above the midpoint of guidance driven by stronger-than-forecasted results from our data center end market. Higher revenue combined with disciplined expense control drove non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.24, also above the midpoint of guidance. The Marvell team executed well in the first quarter and we are looking forward to revenue growth and financial performance strengthening throughout this fiscal year. Let me now discuss our results and expectations for each of our end markets. In our data center end market for the first quarter, we drove record revenue of $816 million, well above our guidance. The outperformance was driven by strong demand from cloud AI applications for our electro-optics portfolio, including PAM, DSPs, TIAs and drivers as well as our ZR data center interconnect products. Data center revenue grew 87% year-over-year and 7% sequentially, with double-digit growth from cloud more than offsetting a higher than seasonal decline in revenue for enterprise on premise data centers. Strong revenue growth was driven by cloud AI as well as standard cloud infrastructure. In addition to strong contributions from our market leading electro-optics products, we also benefited in the first quarter from the initial shipments of our custom AI compute programs. Turning to the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we expect our overall data center revenue to grow in the mid-single digits sequentially on a percentage basis as our custom AI silicon continues ramping. I'm very pleased with our results and projected guidance for our data center end market. Our continued growth in data center and AI in particular is being driven by our leading portfolio of connectivity and custom compute products. Starting with our interconnect solutions. Our 100 gig per lane, 800 gig PAM…

Thanks, Matt and good afternoon, everyone. Let me start with a summary of our financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Revenue in the first quarter was $1.161 billion, exceeding the midpoint of our guidance, declining 12% year-over-year and 19% sequentially. Data center was our largest end market, driving 70% of total revenue. The next largest was enterprise networking with 13% and followed by auto industrial at 7%, carrier infrastructure at 6% and consumer at 4%. GAAP gross margin was 45.5%. Non-GAAP gross margin was 62.4%. Moving on to operating expenses. GAAP operating expenses were $680 million, including stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring costs and acquisition-related costs. Non-GAAP operating expenses were $454 million in line with our guidance. GAAP operating margin was negative 13.1%, while non-GAAP operating margin was 23.3%. For the first quarter, GAAP loss per diluted share was $0.25. Non-GAAP income per diluted share was $0.24, $0.01 above the midpoint of guidance. Now turning to our cash flow and balance sheet. Cash flow from operations in the first quarter was $325 million as a reminder our first quarter cash flow reflect the payment of annual employee cash bonuses for the prior fiscal year. Our inventory at the end of the first quarter was $826 million, decreasing by $38 million from the prior quarter. On a year-over-year basis, we have reduced our inventory by $200 million or almost 20%. Our DSO was 69 days, decreasing by eight days from the prior quarter. We returned $52 million to shareholders through cash dividends. In addition, we repurchased $150 million of our stock during the first quarter, an increase of $50 million from the prior quarter. We expect to further increase repurchases in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Our total debt was $4.15 billion. Our gross…

[Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from Vivek Arya of Bank of America Securities.

Matt, just kind of near-term, I was hoping you could help quantify how much custom compute accounted for in Q1 and how you are thinking about it in Q2. And then as we look into the back half, I think you've given an overall AI number for the data center. But is that a supply constrained number? Just give us a sense for what are the puts and takes in the back half? How much flexibility is in the model to upside expectations from here on?

Yes, so we started production shipments, which was great in our first quarter and that's on its way up. If you look at our Q2, most of the growth in the data center segment is coming from custom. So that's a positive. And then, the whole thing in flex meaningfully in the second half and I'd say from a full year perspective, the way to think about it, maybe some additional color would be, we talked about a floor of $1.5 billion for AI revenue for Marvell for this fiscal year with about 2/3 in electro-optics and a third in custom. And we see now both of those exceeding that number. And then kind of to flow into your second part of your question on the supply constraints in the second half and how do we think about it? We feel like we're in a good position. We -- on the optics side, we did get that initial very strong upside about a year ago, if you recall and the team did a great job and we've been reacting as you saw in our fourth quarter and in our first quarter where we overachieved on our revenues there. And so we're continuing to manage that supply chain very, very carefully and in a very focused manner to make sure we have the flexibility we need for that. And the same is true for the second half, both on the optics and the custom side. And so we're positioning ourselves very much to handle upside above and beyond the numbers we've talked about.

[Audio Gap] Your next question comes from Timothy Arcuri of UBS.

Matt, I wanted to ask about the evolution of the custom ASIC TAM. You had said it's roughly [66], I think you said last year. And I guess at the Analyst Day, you said that you'd beat a 10% share very soon. So is it fair to say that you could be at $1 billion in custom compute next year? I mean, I would think that the TAM gets to roughly $10 billion next year. So do you think you can get to that $1 billion in custom compute number next year? And then also I’m just kind of wondering, if you can talk about the upside. Date center came in $30 million, $35 million better in fiscal Q1. What was that from? It sounds like it wasn't necessarily custom compute because that's still pretty small. So is it more on the connectivity side?

So we articulated the AI day, a very robust custom silicon TAM in excess of $40 billion going out into 2028 time frame and that TAM growing very significantly. And yes, we -- I think your numbers are about right in terms of the share. We're going to end up with near-term and then Raghib articulated our goal to drive that in the custom silicon area to 20%. So you got to draw a line kind of from here to there in terms of the opportunity. And obviously, the TAM has got to materialize. But yes, we're well on our way. Our programs are continue to kind of upsize in terms of the magnitude we're looking at. I'd just say we didn't give the breakout exactly for next year, but we did talk about incremental $1 billion is the floor for next year from this year, so going from $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion. And a lot of that is going to be due to the custom programs hitting their first full year of volume. So we're not calling out the exact split for next year, but maybe that will help you triangulate in the middle in terms of where we are today, where we're trying to drive the business and then also where we see the overall AI business for next year. And I'm confident you and the team can come up with a great model around that. On Q1, yes, most of the -- because custom had just started again, our optics business continued to be very strong, outperformed again -- and it's -- and all indications are that business, certainly, on a year-over-year basis will perform very well and be above the targets we outlined even at the AI day.

Your next question comes from Chris Caso of Wolfe Research.

Question is on gross margins and some of the comments that you made with regard to gross margins in the second half of the year. Could you give a little more detail about some of the puts and takes of that? Understand that some of the lower-margin segments such as consumer, I guess you would include some of the carrier business and that coming back will weigh on margins. What are the segments in the traditional businesses that need to come back to bring the gross margins back to more normalized levels?

Let me take that. So when we look at our gross margin, it's still very much driven by overall product mix and then as well as the overall level of revenue and the overhead absorption that we get. If you look at the merchant side of our business, those gross margins continue to be extremely healthy, actually, quite a bit above our overall corporate target range. However, some of the key components of that, if you look at data center storage, enterprise networking, enterprise on-prem are really going through a significant inventory correction. And so at the same time, we're seeing the beginning of a very strong ramp on our custom programs. And those are typically lower gross margin. However, we get a ton of leverage on OpEx, especially as we are able to recognize the NRE on that as contra R&D and so as a result, that really drives really strong operating margin for us. So overall, I'm not going to guide more than one quarter at a time. I think you have to triangulate with what we're indicating here, but we do see -- as those other merchant businesses start recovering that drives a nice tailwind for us across next year.

Thanks Will. And Chris, just one more add and then we can go to the next question. I'd say, in addition to that which is really as Willem said, both the on-prem data center or the enterprise networking, those types of segments being weaker that are healthier gross margins. The other one that is poised for a stronger recovery as well is automotive in the second half and that's been a strong driver for us as well. So there's some goodness out there for sure, we’ll have better reach obviously as this current quarter progresses in terms of what the second half is going to look like on those other businesses, but we do expect them to recover and return to growth. It's just a timing issue. And so hopefully, that's helpful to think about the different drivers of gross margin.

Your next question comes from Karl Ackerman of BNB Paribas.

Within data center, it looks like the AI portion of your business are about $500 million this past quarter. And so I was hoping you could just also size the non-AI portion of data center. And I guess what you're seeing there both this quarter and going forward because there does appear to be green shoots within the storage ecosystem and perhaps even fiber channel from a seasonal basis. So if you could just discuss the non-AI portion of data center both this quarter and throughout the balance of fiscal ‘25 that would be very helpful.

So yes, without getting into the granularity by quarter relative to the pieces within data center. The way I'd say it is the AI, as we discussed has been very strong. It continues to upside and it continues to look very promising this year and next year. But to your point a couple other things are going on that we see playing out through the year. The first is in standard cloud infrastructure those companies providing those services, in particular, are continuing to invest for sure. And that -- and so when we were seeing our recent results, we're seeing growth in both AI and standard cloud infrastructure. And we see that continuing throughout the year. And then as it relates to the on-prem piece, which has been very depressed relative to just what's happened with traditional server shipments, over really probably the last eight quarters or so, we do very much see a bottom in our first quarter in that business. And so that's going to be part of the growth throughout the rest of the year as well with some of that coming back normalized levels. And that ties back to Willem's comment earlier about some of the gross margin improvement we can look forward to as those businesses recover. So I see growth in all three kind of from here, but with different dynamics driving those.

Your next question comes from Tom O'Malley of Barclays.

Matt, this one's for you and it's sort of a follow-up from the AI day. You talked about with the kind of timing inference and CPU and when you look into the future, could you talk about if you think any of the three are more or less defensible, do you think it could be over-indexed to any of those. I know that you spent a lot of time at the AI day saying this is really a process that both involves your chip design as well as the customers' design. So I understand that where flags are planted today. There may be some defensibility. But just could you talk about those three opportunities and where are you see more defensibility and where you may see some more success?

I think I would bucket them all largely in the same camp. Okay. And what I mean by that is if you're in the data center custom silicon market, as we are and providing a wide variety of solutions, Raghib showed those types of solutions on a slide at the AI day, plus a bunch of other ones right that we're involved in. But these are multi-year development cycles, these are multi-year or multigenerational types of engagements we have because -- you're talking about developing literally the most state-of-the-art semiconductor products in the industry. Some of these are 100 billion type of transistors and up. It's the most advanced packaging, the most advanced process node, the most advanced IO and as a key partner, we have to be able to put all that together for the customer and then actually deliver it in high volume, with high yield, high reliability as well as have the parallelism to be working on the next generation. And these plans typically get set well in advance. The first wins we talked about on these custom programs was in 2021, Tom and then we're sort of looking out to 2024 ramp we're seeing. I'm talking about calendar now and then really 2025 for kind of full year. So -- and that's moving heaven and earth with the engineering teams in both companies. So these are very defensible, very sticky sockets when you partner and when you do a great job. And I wouldn't sort of put one over the other. There's various dynamics with in all the different kinds of custom silicon investments our customers are making with us. But in general, once we're in and we are -- and we prove our execution and our partnership, it typically leads to the next one. So I feel really good about our position there. And so does Raghib and that's why we are very confident in our ability to drive share gains over the next few years. And if the market really develops like I think we all think and hope it will, it will be very meaningful for Marvell.

Your next question comes from Quinn Bolton of Needham.

Matt, just wanted to get to -- come back to the gross margin question. Obviously, I understand the ramp of custom compute is a bit of a headwind. But when you talk about sort of the pressure on margins as custom compute ramps, can you just level set us? Are you kind of talking relative to the long-term model of 64 plus? Or are you sort of talking about pressure from sort of the July quarter guidance level of 62?

We're really talking about in the short-term here, as we think about this custom programs ramping and what that's going to do to our business starting in Q2 and through this year. We have a mix of different business models and different product lines, as you know. And we're in a period right now where the custom piece is well indicated, which does drive tremendous operating leverage, does carry a lower than corporate average gross margin. So in the near-term, as we see a very strong ramp and inflection on that business with the sort of more margin businesses taking longer to recover, I think that’s we're trying to say. We've successfully managed for some time now. The ability to drive a healthy gross margin across the portfolio of products, but we still got to kind of get through this post-cyclical period we're in and get back to a period of normalcy in terms of demand. And I think when that happens and you see those other more margin-rich businesses return to their run rates that they were at and then grow from there, I think we'll have a much healthier margin profile. But that's really -- that's really sort of beyond, I would say, the next few quarters. And that's really what we're just trying to signal to everybody on how to think about the business as you model in the near-term. Willem, do you have anything to add?

No, I think that's perfect, Matt. Nothing else.

Your next question comes from Ross Seymore of Deutsche Bank.

Why don’t you get to the cyclical parts of your business? Matt, you talked about kind of a slow recovery in the combination of the enterprise networking and carrier business. Just wondered, if they're dropping so hard and so abruptly over the course of a couple of quarters, why would it be such a gradual increase? Usually, if you have those kind of big drops, you'd have big step-ups. Are you just being conservative in that? Is there a share loss? Just what sort of slope would you expect in that recovery? And I think last quarter, you said they should get to be $1 billion businesses individually to $2 billion overall. The timetable for that, can you get there next year? Is it further off? Any color on those two topics would be helpful.

Yes. It's a great question, Ross and maybe I'll give you one example. So to answer the first part, yes, I think we're taking -- given the magnitude of the drop, we are taking a conservative view on the recovery slope, I would say until we really see the bookings in the back laying in, I would say, when it’s here , it’ll be much easier to call. I know that sounds a little bit snarky but it’s not. It’s just the reality is when something drops, you want to be a little thoughtful about the recovery. But that being said, I'm -- I've seen this pattern too. And in fact, look at our consumer business. It had a down Q1, and now it's doubling going into Q2, right, as that inventory worked through and we realigned and so that was like a fairly quick one. On those two dynamics, it's probably important for me to take a second on what we're seeing there in both the carrier and enterprise markets. And we do, and I do see those returning back to their to kind of call it $2 billion combined, $1 billion each run rates. But it's very different. I think the PAS and maybe a little counterintuitive in terms of what we're seeing, but here it goes. On the carrier side, the overall environment -- the end environment with operators and capital spending still looks very weak and it still looks depressed. However, we have some of our own growth drivers in this market, in particular, on the wireless side with some new content ramping and in this area, we've actually seen bookings and demand improve in terms of the outlook for later this year. And so when you start getting those orders for the second half and…

Your next question comes from Blayne Curtis of Jefferies.

Actually, my question was similar to Ross, but I was wondering you did a pretty good explanation there, if you could talk in data center, right? So outside of electro-optical, we know the ASIC ramp is going to be what it is. I'm just kind of curious to cyclical correction. I thought you said storage was up your year, but I think it's a pretty easy comp. So if you look at kind of storage and kind of the other bits of data centers that aren't the AI and optical, what kind of cyclical correction is going on there? How much -- I don't know if you can comment on how much is down? And kind of are you seeing any improving trends there as well?

Yes. Great one to add Blayne, actually. Although we don't break it out exactly, I reviewed all these numbers heading into the call. So you're right, year-over-year comps are pretty easy, I guess, but it's still a positive trend for sure, overall in storage and that we saw our bottom there in the first quarter a year ago, and it's seen very steady improvement actually each quarter since. But kind of to Ross' question, it hasn't hockey sticked up, but it's been growing nicely. And that's on the total storage portfolio and within data center storage. So all that's coming back which is great. And again, they're the end customer commentary particularly on the hard drive side, seems very encouraging. So as they work down again, the inventory that they had accumulated, those end market signals at least from what we're picking up at the end customer level are starting to look bullish as well. So we're hopeful that -- and that feeds mostly that storage business feeds the data center part of it, but that is part of our growth we're expecting as well in the second half although the majority of its going to be continued ramp in AI for sure Blayne. But storage has been nice that’s been on the recovery path, I’d say slow and steady, but back on the path to the levels we think it should be at.

Your next question comes from Harlan Sur of JPMorgan.

On the optical side, you guys are benefiting from the strong growth in 800 gigs to support all these AI build-outs. 1.6T starts later this year with your lead partner NVIDIA. Is this driving -- is optical driving quarter-on-quarter growth here in July and to this year given that this is the profile of your customers sort of GPU and compute ASIC deployments? And then secondly, you've got a lot of other potential upside drivers right in optical. For example, it's right around this time for some of your cloud customers to start the broad data center networking footprint upgrades the 400 gig, 800 gig especially with your Teralynx 10, Broadcom's Tomahawk 5 platforms shipping this year that will drive I think some incremental growth for your 800 gig DSP solutions. And then on top of that, you have two new customers that I think are going to fire on your 400 ZR DCI solution. So I guess the follow-up question here is, are you starting to get some visibility on some of these potential upside drivers in optical?

I think you've actually got the narrative pretty well nailed down, but maybe some additional comments. I'd say in the short-term, the way to think about the optical business into July is we're modeling it right now and our guide is flattish to slightly up. And the reason for that is we outperformed pretty big both in Q4 and Q1. So in fact, I'd say since last year, once sort of ChatGPT hit and the whole AI thing hit, we've been beating those numbers every quarter. And we're positioned from a supply standpoint to do that but it's just it ramped up very fast. And it's continued to hold there and outperform. So as we look into July, we're modeling it to be flat to slightly up, it may do better, let’s see order trend come in. But year-over-year will be very strong because also in the second half to your point, those traditional standard cloud infrastructure build-outs and upgrades are going to happen. And so that's part of our model as well in the second half is seeing standard cloud infrastructure ramp on the optical business. And then we've got our switching portfolio you mentioned. And then also ZR, we've engaged with multiple customers now that's probably more of a next year thing, but again, some contribution this year. And then we've got AECs as well. So there's a lot happening in this area. And that's why when you look at sort of Marvell in the second half of this year, we guided the whole company up 8% for Q2. And when I look at the second half, total company is going to be up more than that in Q3 and Q4 with growth accelerating, primarily driven by data center and AI and primarily driven by the trends all of which you mentioned are dynamics that we see. So yes, we see a great setup for the second half, very, very optimistic about the second half.

Your next question comes from C.J. Muse of Cantor Fitzgerald.

I guess, Matt, I wanted to follow-up on your prepared remarks where you talked about increasing optimism on the custom silicon prospects and funnel. And I guess as you think about that, is that visibility to units? Is that visibility to winning next-gen projects at existing customers? Is it selling additional silicon content to those customers? Or are you also potentially seeing greater breadth of vertical integrated players contemplating their own silicon?

Yes, the comment was really focused on the existing design wins we have that are ramping in production for this year. And that right now, those are all doing better than we thought. Even from certainly last quarter when we talked about the business or even from the AI day, all of those have strengthened in terms of the total revenues we expect both this year and next year from those businesses. So I think the demand remains very strong for AI, both for custom silicon and for optics and for the whole portfolio. And we have not seen that slowed down. We've only seen our customers raise their estimates on us and their requirements and so we're working with our supply chain partners and making sure we can meet it. And then on the -- I'd say additionally to that though, the customer engagement side and momentum remains very strong. We're in execution phase on a number of new programs, many of which we talked about at the AI day. So yes, we're heads down driving teams, driving technology, driving innovation, driving the schedule. And it's a pretty exciting time to be in the part of this market in the semiconductor industry right now and have such a unique role. So yes, activity is off the charts both demand revenue and design wins.

Your next question comes from Tore Svanberg of Stifel.

I had a question on PCIe. What exactly are the company's ambitions there? I mean it's a concentrated supplier base today. I think the largest competitor is getting into the market as well. So -- how big is this market? What are your ambitions from a share perspective? And when should we see the earliest revenues for PCIe?

And for us, we really look at this as an incremental opportunity to leverage our core capability in PAM based DSP design. And we've known about this market for some time, obviously, as you know well because you're really deep in this stuff, but people can just look at it. This is PCIe Gen 6. So there was retimers on Gen 5 and Gen 4 and Gen 3 and so forth. I mean, I remember working on this kind of stuff back when I was at Maxim, okay, for like early PCIe. So I've sort of been around this market. And the thing that we've looked at always at Marvell going back a couple of years was on the PCIe Gen 6 transition, which is happening now on the products that we announced or sampling is when the modulation scheme moves from NRZ to PAM. And so that was our decision to intercept this market at this juncture. And I would just say, I think it's a proven market size. I think it probably grows from where it was in Gen 5 to Gen 6. It will be led by probably a lot of the -- just like the rest of the market, a lot of the AI stuff first. And then when the standards are sort of formalize and ratified, then you'll see it in broader adoption over the next couple of years. But we intend to be a player here. It plays to our strengths. It's in our wheelhouse. And we have world-leading capability in this area. And so -- and it's a perfect fit to our whole connectivity portfolio. And if you think about us, we are the one-stop shop in terms of connectivity solutions for our customers across the board. When you think about optical DSPs, AECs, these retimer products you name it, we have the breadth of technology and breadth of product offering, and it's proven and people know what they're dealing with. So we're optimistic it's early, Tore. It's still an emerging standard but we definitely have a lot of customer interest and that's why we announced the products today.

Your next question comes from Srini Pajjuri of Raymond James.

Matt my question is also on custom silicon. I guess you're ramping pretty aggressively second of half of this year and you said the first full year of ramp is going to be next year. I'm just curious. I'm guessing most of these ramps are 5 nanometer design wins. I'm just curious as to how long each generation typically ramps. And then when you go to the next generation, I'm just trying to understand how the transition typically works because if you look at the largest GPU supplier, they have kind of switched from a two year cadence to one year cadence. I don't know how the customs are looking programs that you are engaged with are -- how your customers are thinking about the cadence of those products. But I guess, just trying to understand how long should we expect the current generation to ramp? And then when they actually ramp down? And then when the next generation starts, how should we think about that transition?

And kind of the first point you mentioned, yes, the ramp is very steep this year. We talked about it at the AI day exiting this year at a $200 million kind of plus run rate on custom. So very strong. These are -- for kind of full year, these are probably two plus year kind of cycles once they hit. I would just say that without talking about specific engagements, I'd say that the custom side is as keen on making sure they're at the next node and have the latest technology just as fast as the biggest merchant suppliers, they want to complement their offerings. So that's where some of the comments I made earlier around being in execution mode on next-generation products and design activity, you're going to see that same trend. But for at least the current ones we have now, if that's part of your question, we have very strong visibility over the next couple of years on the 5 nanometer programs. The 3 nanometer design pipeline and wins have been very strong, and we're already deeply engaged on 2 nanometer. So it's almost the way it's working now is you've got five in production and three sort of in flight and two is the next one. And how all that plays out, Srini going to -- is still a bit dynamic, but you're going to see the same kind of intensity in terms of R&D and technology requirements on the custom side as you see on the merchant side, you just have to meet the power and TCO requirements that the market needs. And we’re well positioned to go do that and support our customers on it. They're very motivated to make that happen as a way to have both, right, in terms of their -- the breadth of their spend and AI is going to require them to have both types of solutions, both from the leading merchant supplier as well as augmenting with their own

Your next question comes from Christopher Rolland of Susquehanna.

Just a quick follow-up on the PCI retimer and then my question. Just if you had any idea on the TAM and how you're viewing that market, that would be great. But my question is really around storage, enterprise networking carrier, some of your -- and wireless carrier and consumer of these markets, they've previously been driven by product cycles, a lot of them, whether it's consoles or 5G or campus upgrades or near line drives. Are there any product-specific drivers for these markets that can get them beyond a cyclical recovery that you've identified?

Let me -- on the first one, we haven't spelled out the TAM yet. We thought it was a bit early when we were doing our AI day to do that. But it will be -- our view is it was significant enough of an opportunity to enter the market and develop the products and that's something we can provide information on in the future. But there's quite frankly, pretty good market reports out there that you're probably very [Audio Gap] but that's something we can provide in the future for sure. On the private cycle side, some of these are really going to be driven by us in terms of our own design wins, the carrier is a good example, both on adding an additional socket that ramps up, that's content gain, right, as well as the -- once the wired side picks up as well, there will be a nice transition from 400 gig to 800 gig coherent. So we've got those going on. Those are two examples. I think consoles are what they are. And then in networking, we've just been gradually over time, increasing our share, increasing our content. I don't see that changing. But we've always kind of said that businesses GD plus kind of grower in terms of a market and we can do better. Now we had several years there were like 20% or 30%. We had some really nice performance in terms of the share we were able to capture. But from here on out, I think we've consistently said it's just all -- in fact, we've always said, even we sort of say it and then we beat it, but it's always, I think better to be conservative on the enterprise side in terms of modeling which is call it mid-single-digit kind of a grower as a market and we can do a little bit better. That's once all the inventory and all that stuff is normalized. I don't see any major product cycle there other than just as multi gig continues to ship more than 1 gig. We get an ASP uplift. And as the -- in the switching side, the ASP per port goes up as the bandwidth goes up. So there's some nice trends there, Chris. But I think we did a good job of establishing a very solid footprint from a share perspective. And so the model going forward should really be kind of market growth plus our own content and modest share gain. I think with that, we've got one more question and then we can wrap it up.

We will take our last question from Atif Malik of Citi.

Matt in response to Harlan's question, you talked about optical flat to slightly up on 800 gig. Curious when are you thinking about the volume adoption of 1.6T and what is holding that if it's not the DSPs. Are the lasers not ready? Or is it just waiting for the Blackwell?

I think the way to think about it is just timing relative to the system builds our customers call, schedule their ramp et cetera. So we start seeing this one at the moment doesn't have. It's not a -- I mean, I remember all these issues in the past, right. There's a green laser problem. There's this problem or that. There's always some issue in this optical space, but this time it's really, everyone's going a million miles an hour trying to get their products ramped. Our module partners are ramping up with our solution. Our end customers that are driving this are going as fast as they can. So it's just more of a timing issue that we need to intercept the platforms as they're ramping and we're doing that. So think of that as sort of shipments in the back half, but really contributing much more meaningfully next year on the 1.6T transition. But it's definitely underway, and we see a clear path to help enable right, this part of this next generation of accelerators to be able to ship in volume with the latest optical standards. And we're at the forefront and in the lead in that regard. So yes, it will be later this year and then more volume next year and it will -- I think be a big product cycle for us.

I think with that would be the last question. So I think we can wrap up the call from here. Thanks, everybody, for your interest in Marvell and in the company, and I look forward to seeing all of you in the coming months. And I guess I'll see you probably in September at the Citi conference. So all right. Take care, everybody. Thanks.

Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes our question-and-answer session. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.
