“The quarter was characterized by solid profitability and strong new product growth. Sales performed as expected with increases from wired and wireless communications offsetting expected declines from defense,” said Moshe Gavrielov, Xilinx President and Chief Executive Officer. “From a product perspective, we experienced a recovery in our 7 series products driven by exceptional strength from our Zynq®-7000 family and better-than-expected sales from our 20-nm UltraScale™ family. In addition, I am pleased with our continued technology leadership which has allowed us to ship our 16-nm UltraScale+™ family sooner than anticipated.”
