SUNNYVALE, Calif. & YOKNEAM, Israel, April 27, 2017 — Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MLNX) has announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2017.
“Our first quarter InfiniBand revenues were down year-over-year, impacted by delays in the general availability of next generation x86 CPUs, seasonal trends in high-performance computing, and technology transitions occurring across several end users and OEM customers. We believe InfiniBand has maintained share in HPC, and expect revenues will see sequential growth in the coming quarters driven by current backlog and additional pipeline opportunities,” said Eyal Waldman, president and CEO of Mellanox Technologies. “Our first quarter Ethernet revenues grew across all product families sequentially, driven by the adoption of our 25/50/100 gigabit solutions. We expect 2017 to be a growth year for Mellanox.”
