The contract manufacturer reported non-GAAP diluted EPS of $3.72, beating the $3.56 consensus estimate by 4.42%, while revenue reached $1.21 billion, ahead of the $1.19 billion estimate by 2.22% and up 39.3% from the year-ago quarter, with CEO Seamus Grady pointing to "numerous ongoing and ramping programs" as key growth drivers. The quarter marks the fourth consecutive period in which Fabrinet has beaten consensus EPS estimates, underscoring the consistency of its execution. Margins improved modestly year over year, with non-GAAP operating margin expanding to 10.7% from 10.2%.

Looking ahead, management guided Q4 revenue of $1.25 billion to $1.29 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $3.72 to $3.87, signaling continued momentum, particularly from new datacom customer agreements.
