Revenues
Net sales in the quarter increased to $814.9 million from $599.9 million in the prior-year quarter. Top-line growth was driven by higher revenue contributions from both the Enterprise Technology and Service Provider Technology segments. The top line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $720 million.
Enterprise Technology generated $729 million in revenues, up from $518.2 million in the prior-year quarter. An increase in revenues across all regions drove net sales in this segment.
Service Provider Technology registered $85.9 million in revenues, up from $81.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The segment experienced revenue expansion across all regions except South America.

Other Details
During the December quarter, gross profit was $374 million compared with $247.2 million in the year-ago quarter, with respective margins of 45.9% and 41.2%. Favorable product mix, lower shipping costs, and lower excess and obsolete inventory charges. Higher tariffs partially reversed this positive trend.
The operating expenses increased to $81.1 million from the prior-year figure of $68.4 million due to higher employee and prototype-related expenses, higher marketing expenses, and fees associated with webstore credit card processing. Operating income was $292.9 million, up from $178.8 million in the prior year.

During the first six months of fiscal 2026, Ubiquiti generated $462.4 million of cash in operating activities, up from $386.1 million in the prior-year period. As of Dec. 31, 2025, the company had $302.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, with $32.9 million of other long-term liabilities.
