QUIK scores mid-range primarily due to improving fundamentals and outlook: a significantly de-levered balance sheet and earnings-call guidance pointing to materially better margins and a path to non-GAAP profitability/positive cash flow in H2 2026. Offsetting this, current financial performance is still constrained by heavy losses and negative free cash flow, while technical indicators remain weak with the stock below key shorter-term moving averages and a negative MACD.
Positive Factors
Strong Revenue Growth
Rapid growth in new-product revenue indicates improving adoption of QuickLogic’s programmable logic offerings. The raised full-year outlook suggests demand may continue across multiple customer programs, supporting a stronger revenue base over the next several quarters.
Negative Factors
Persistent Unprofitability
Despite improving revenue and margins, QuickLogic remains heavily loss-making and is not consistently self-funding. Continued cash burn could require additional financing or constrain investment if the anticipated profitability improvement is delayed.

QuickLogic Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Aug 11, 2026
(Q2-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Nov 17, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call presents a generally positive picture: strong year-over-year revenue growth, materially improved gross margins, a tightened full-year growth outlook (70%–80%), improved cash position and a stated path to non-GAAP profitability and positive cash flow in H2 2026. At the same time, there are notable near-term execution risks — a delayed contract extension and the removal of a commercial ASIC from the 2026 forecast that push revenue into 2027, concentration of revenue in a few customers, and Q4 timing dependence on government contract tranches. Overall, management is confident in the multi-quarter roadmap (tape-outs, eval kits, RadPro demand, and potential IP licensing) that supports stronger 2027 monetization, but investors should watch the timing of the delayed contracts and the Q4 revenue concentration.Positive Updates
Strong Quarterly Revenue Growth
Q2 revenue of $5.5M, up 48.7% year-over-year and up 8.5% sequentially (vs Q1 2026). New product revenue was $4.7M (up 59.7% YoY and 8.6% QoQ) and mature product revenue was $0.8M (up 6.9% YoY and 8.8% QoQ).
Negative Updates
Delay of Key Contract Extension
A expected seven-figure extension of an existing customer contract was delayed while the customer re-evaluates partitioning between eFPGA and fixed ASIC logic. Management said this delay was the primary reason Q2 landed at the low end of guidance and contributes to flat revenue guidance for Q3.

Company Guidance
QuickLogic narrowed its full‑year 2026 revenue growth outlook to 70%–80% and is modeling non‑GAAP profitability and positive cash flow in H2 2026; it reiterated Q3 revenue guidance of $5.5M ±10% (i.e., $4.95M–$6.05M) comprised of $4.7M new product and $0.8M mature product revenue, with Q3 non‑GAAP gross margin ~47% ±5% and Q3 non‑GAAP operating expenses ~$3.6M ±5%. The company expects a Q3 net loss of about $900K (≈$0.05/share), Q3 cash use of ~ $400K and to close Q3 with net cash slightly over $13M (Q2 net cash was $13.5M excluding a $5M drawdown); full‑year targets include a ~51% non‑GAAP gross margin and non‑GAAP OpEx of $13.7M–$13.9M (≈17% growth vs. 2025). Management also said Q4 upside is expected from its U.S. government contract (total ceiling $89M) and other signed IP and Storefront opportunities, while monitoring timing risks that moved one commercial ASIC opportunity into 2027.QuickLogic Financial Statement Overview
