MediaTek (TW0002454006) reported record third-quarter 2026 revenue of TWD 168.06 billion on October 8, 2026, up 10.43 percent from the previous quarter and 18.27 percent from the year-ago quarter, according to SmBom. The result exceeded the upper end of MediaTek's TWD 152.20 billion to TWD 159.80 billion guidance range by TWD 8.26 billion.

Revenue clears the guidance range

TokenPost reported that September revenue reached TWD 55.40 billion, up 1.97 percent year over year but down 13.69 percent from August. Revenue for the first nine months of 2026 reached TWD 469.39 billion, up 5.30 percent from the same period a year earlier.

The comparison matters because the quarterly result exceeded management's own range rather than only an external estimate. It also shows a wider contribution base as MediaTek develops custom application-specific integrated circuits for data-center customers.

What the AI expansion means

MediaTek's second-quarter 2026 earnings call set the data-center revenue target above USD 2.00 billion for 2026 and placed the 2027 serviceable addressable market at USD 80.00 billion. Management raised its 2027 share target to 15.00 percent to 20.00 percent from 10.00 percent to 15.00 percent, as documented in the Yahoo Finance transcript dated July 31, 2026.

The same transcript recorded second-quarter revenue of TWD 152.20 billion, gross margin of 46.20 percent and net income of TWD 24.61 billion. The first data-center AI accelerator ASIC is scheduled to enter mass production in the fourth quarter of 2026, creating a measurable test for the diversification strategy.
