In the third paragraph, CEO comments were added. Revenue for fiscal year 2031 is expected to reach $70 billion to $90 billion, surpassing market expectations. Custom chip revenue for fiscal year 2029 is projected to reach $12 billion. Executives attribute this optimistic outlook to the booming development of artificial intelligence and a decade of sustained effort. Prathik Jayaprakash/Anhata Rooprai/Max A. Cherney — Reuters, October 6 — Marvell Technology MRVL.O on Tuesday raised its revenue forecast for fiscal year 2028 to about $20 billion, above Wall Street expectations, due to surging demand for custom data center chips and a boom in AI-related spending. The Santa Clara, California-based company's stock rose about 6%, while shares of competitor Broadcom AVGO.O were up about 4%. “It took a very long time to put the company on this path and become a technology leader,” Marvell President and Chief Operating Officer Chris Koopmans said in an interview. “We have always had a track record of delivering on our commitments.” Marvell established a strategy in 2021 focusing on custom and cloud-optimized chips, specifically designed for data centers. Since then, the company has been one of the main beneficiaries of the AI infrastructure boom, and now expects to achieve $12 billion in custom chip revenue in fiscal 2029, up from its previous target of $10 billion. As technology companies develop proprietary AI processors to decrease reliance on Nvidia NVDA.O chips, Marvell’s custom chip business has become a primary growth driver. So far this year, Marvell's stock has surged more than threefold. In August, Marvell disclosed an agreement with Google's Alphabet GOOGL.O which could bring in up to $120 billion in sales through fiscal year 2033, pending certain business milestones. That same month, the company raised its full-year revenue forecast from $16.5 billion to about $18 billion. On Tuesday, Marvell forecast fiscal 2031 revenue between $70 billion and $90 billion. According to a Visible Alpha survey of four analysts, the midpoint of $80 billion exceeds Wall Street's expectation of $46.85 billion. According to London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) data, analysts previously expected 2028 revenue to be $18.2 billion.
