The company posted adjusted earnings of $2.46 a share for its fiscal first quarter, surpassing analysts' consensus estimates of $2.31, according to FactSet. Revenue totaled $3.16 billion, above Wall Street's call for $3.12 billion.

Analog Devices stock jumped 8% in premarket trading Wednesday. Shares had risen 24% in 2026 as of Tuesday's close of trading.
