Thanks, will now Operator, and prepared remarks, questions. instructions review will open our we call Ravi. our you with That question-and-answer concludes please participants? the the for

[Operator Your of line the Bolton question Needham. first Instructions] comes from with Quinn

on Congratulations the on on supply constraints. to ask so performance. the particularly nice and Ravi, guys. I the results Hi margin wanted

have constrained. manufacturing have Taiwanese obviously been You your know multiple wafer foundries partners. I

well? see some as from trying to But are relationship ramp Polar are wondering to You if starting with constraints your you also TSMC.

our have been from Polar. with actually benefiting We relationship

which more that allowed its – – support us received have capacity. in we to market continue expand service is making see the the investments have wafers, to And invest We to upside. Polar

we wafers out to But see So, we on has to plan. progress continuing source. continue from This been on especially will our Polar foundries, TSMC. are Taiwanese more our also wafer

We we projected our calls. have on stay plan prior ramp. it on in And discussed

that market, And the about growth talk But seeing just I sort just constraints. terms the you then you upcoming near-term the business near-term you to flattish for what in that continue outlook there or ADAS in overall the affecting are portion of supply in automotive and and the supply segment of in business? are sort on of be the do for EV business demand of can quarter? of know constraints with that may grow the sort or line see Can

on focusing vehicles And these Well, vehicles. xEV to to ADAS or content high we – be be see more feature-rich based. to companies are tend that have car feature-rich tend tend

business. to in ADAS our we see strength So, continue xEV and

see design continue growth in in also to tremendous these segments. our We wins

xEV I last ADAS were emerging quarter wins think businesses. the in more our than design half of industrial our and

aligning So we alignment with see as that our them. great we to is market see as investments well the

you Great. very Thank much.

And your with of line next Barclays. question comes the Curtis Blayne from

Maybe my on June if follow-up question were the in I that to Good I morning. of some kind on you the right, heard taking get for Thanks able supplies. supply, was you just last a guess, question. upside

think or that should of kind that’s your supply? So products. internal or maybe grow. I sorry, can I I’m you understand you And coming said to the half guess, – mean, – then if trying Taiwanese just Polar in back curious, new I TSMC should be

that in you or just just I’m your that of foundries – are half? much to upside highlight more just got what So be revenue. coming the getting I you But on is be from the And if maybe supply? existing could I guess, it could wouldn’t the supply kind back expect you what TSMC

existing So we our foundries. continuing are to ramp

So they will we supply move help as forward. us with

inventory our mentioned has are Paul as think levels historic at I lows.

addition which ramping, run and to processes wafer are chains. our on so in strategy, But ramping And is our supply, TSMC are that part, Allegro that, foundries. we help stabilize at in multiple internal will own the is

ramp TSMC is transferring products that we the into are existing TSMC. So our on

for gross guess of I Got more the you a had about look you it. of a And think the kind ramp I bit just these gross margin of as margin know I’m Polar external, year? then use curious as was drag you that. of fiscal when to as you at rest

that take you Do want Paul? to

Sure.

outperform this XX%. that QX, in or anticipate, of overshadow increase in guiding from quarter, transformation exiting We’ve we’ve guided any discussing we’ve Polar. continued a been range. strength – to while. of the a And the is XX% So discussing we some tended for gross as for margin, we’ve been That cost benefits year manufacturing that the in seen definitely or

we’re So well I way think on path. our on that

guys. Okay, thanks

Fargo Your next Securities. line the Gary comes from of Wells question with Mobley

Good three each production of profiles question. ask my on for morning specifically the to presumably Thanks everybody. questions I double-click taking margin for mix wanted gross about suppliers. and

can you sourcing perspective. margin gross is So for think Polar, from we a margin all I lower generally agree

to upside seeing that are upside? minimum so is that on Polar got related you’ve ramps? the Is I’m met further your divestiture, timeframe for requirements of you. supply? then margin impeded the of you I revenue what or And gross margin profile that And UMC, chewing reported to from enhance higher as And with some revenue by that, to wondering just those TSMC with extent when the purchase volumes margin in being you’re quarter think, that gross requirements minimum minimum the going purchase part into the the the unaffected is Polar

mentioned does mix had Hi, also offset is in initiatives a Gary, we’ve Polar the But increase perspective, we’ve of cost that. is number or From help a wafer or take I’ll UMC internal to as higher than that. this an TSMC. Paul. have a past,

we demand, having then to maintain additional from the So and Polar of get able this XX% benefit supply to margin. service we’re

and as for for minimum hit When – issue. look we the an issue this any As that and look you – mean environment in where normalized TSMC those we – those won’t in environment – we where us. requirements where on exactly. Polar, head into be purchase even at it’s I that’s not – a UMC,

– line But perspective – we top these as to this top service sources growth. we’ve on our on, blend business, that wafer a appropriately will And remain we cost from momentum. win as about perspective. the that need the got business the The adjust. on, a great what top bullish comes focus is design And supply design line well on wins – are sources, way growth gross wafer think our both And us. they as driving design And way and of the margin And overall is as new are great to from come to them wins Ravi. line are also for allocating backlog. is the to our basis we

at Wanted a in of and guys you been that are that running you sales extent xEV Where Automotive what believe third to Appreciate all it, by the guys? from And you’ve your today? to us driven given past, stat increasing applications. color, for mix your I missed at about and ADAS percentage the is guys. a that’s get apologize I of that revenue. is if I

the our automotive for we as year-over-year. And business the said business year-over-year. overall quarter, XX% our XX% for at the although that Well, XX% and grew business grew about was quarter of xEV ADAS sales at

the clearly, business has the ADAS the and So business. xEV outperformed of rest auto

Okay, appreciate that.

Paul. is this Gary,

Thanks.

next your And of line from John with question Pitzer Credit Suisse. the comes

times In ever I the growth plus will SAAR how growth Good business, letting will year look so guess in for help into do Yes. right arrears year? year balance? us for do this things or distribution, And distribution. it this commentary you dampen you that where a build do some investors question. you with is at better think look But there’s the of think going be leverage what now have your supply been that, into sort concern type when next you has that’s now? going we see in understand got on as good only auto ask and you guys. that next can you can have content clearly, year we visibility you think I to are to inventory Thanks it’s and at me morning key you’ve comes once addition make end still maybe needs into or we demand to understand that that inevitably to lean inventory tight, inventory a right look Ravi, mostly

with outlook do to that we we reasonable today the sort a We continue. building our going that at our today what knowledge, our speaking customers of look predominantly constraint we supply we not will OEMs fairly to of issues, any end products of through this delivery the a have don’t the at customers we them And imbalance have And alignment, best year, from service into inventory our we that indication demand. at customers have rest right to keep views our and that perspective on supply the – are all etcetera. believe the is on shipping are – point – believing for inventory. up any the that the are And we’re supply-demand

this ADAS, design at that. in xEV given vehicles, to We the the applications, and doing etcetera. drive momentum share have see win indication that’s market And we point what gains, growth feature-rich no given our

referenced. Allegro, just will For SAAR math you outperform we continue the to that

business. with design going I than year-over-year anecdotal is in if curious on to if assuming some a magnetic pipeline – That’s as going kind or stronger sensor. helpful. almost title where side you’re of sensors? magnetic Great doing you I’m itself there the can it the just to are system-level give then business, you in the us And is And of and power not by just at Ravi, power sort extremely growth But as well? the strong, power that like am of

Yes.

magnetic investments vibrant X This over really to transformation X we’re two that we our were and business. So the power excited a predominantly the a has businesses. is company. last company created years of the part sensor of great extraordinarily We in have

succeeded sensor the of that we’ve One the got in power business had of many business. – our is in we’ve aligning our applications ways strength

really and but we speed control, also provide drivers, is motion sensing, regulators. for So we torque on focused sensing, disconnect business switches for our sensors angle example, ADAS sensing, provide sensing, where [indiscernible] current

being as example aligned and So story. of of motion been focused is in segments is an that’s unique Power power focused on, leverages business very some under successful power. control the and have, But the our has in a very itself play was that which ADAS into part our of technologies. that system many this – – also business wafer hood the we sensor

of lighting. down in lighting, to we XXX of And with much we we it but systems. is one safety-critical differentiators think that don’t growing we which BCD about power tail Power that’s XXX-volt Allegro in believe the degrees state-of-the-art in – operates really LED also interior for that are in What about some more have headlights, for example, is the been the aligned our applications. really the speak centigrade. particularly speak lights that is We

So we’ve in fan. this really centers, take-through has great IP our These discussed fan, the BLDC but are predominantly previously it. the the solutions, with our centers Automotive. initially Industrial, data in rate, also three-phase include And on both in data control applications all now They associated which system-on-chip drivers. commutate had great secondary in take in

continue we remain in bullish to So power.

That’s you very helpful. Thank much.
