Harmonic Inc. (HLIT) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

You're looking at how Harmonic Inc. plans to sell more of its existing products-the cOS platform and VOS360 SaaS-into its current markets, primarily North American cable operators. This is about deepening relationships and extracting more value from the installed base. It's a lower-risk path, but the numbers show where the current dependency lies.

Driving deeper adoption with your largest customer is the immediate focus. In the third quarter of 2025, Comcast was a significant anchor, accounting for 43% of total company revenue. That concentration means any success in deepening the cOS or fiber-to-the-home solutions within that account directly impacts the top line. You saw Comcast leveraging Harmonic's fiber-to-the-home solutions for its expansion, which included planning for more than 1.2 million new locations in 2025. That's penetration into new build-outs using existing technology relationships.

For the broader broadband base, the goal is to expand the footprint of the virtualized access platform. As of Q3 2025, Harmonic Inc. had a commercial deployment base of 142 cOS deployments in production. This base was serving over 37 million cable modems and ONUs worldwide. Increasing sales force focus on Tier-2 and Tier-3 US MSOs is the action to grow that 142 number, moving from the largest operators to the next tier of potential customers with proven technology.

On the Video side, the push is to migrate customers from on-premises appliances to the higher-margin VOS360 SaaS platform. While I don't have the exact dollar amount for migration incentives, the financial incentive for Harmonic is clear: the Video segment's Non-GAAP gross margin in Q3 2025 was 66.7%, significantly higher than the Broadband segment's 47.3% Non-GAAP gross margin for the same period. The momentum for SaaS is already there; in Q2 2025, Video SaaS revenue hit a record of $15.4 million, fueled by live sports streaming packages. Bundling VOS360 SaaS with these high-engagement media packages is how you capture more of the media budget, aiming to replicate that Q2 SaaS success across the installed appliance base.

Here's a quick look at the segment performance that frames these penetration efforts, using the latest reported figures from Q3 2025:

The strategy for deepening market penetration involves several specific actions aimed at increasing product utilization and moving customers up the value chain:

• Maintain Comcast's high revenue contribution, which was 43% of Q3 2025 revenue.
• Aggressively incentivize North American appliance customers to shift to VOS360 SaaS.
• Target expansion beyond the current 142 cOS deployments across US MSOs.
• Use live sports streaming success, which drove Q2 2025 Video SaaS revenue to $15.4 million, as a bundling template.

Harmonic Inc. (HLIT) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

You're looking at how Harmonic Inc. (HLIT) can push its existing cOS platform into new geographic markets, which is the essence of Market Development. The numbers from the third quarter of 2025 give us a clear baseline for this expansion effort.

The foundation for global scaling is the existing Broadband segment, which posted revenue of $90.5 million in Q3 2025, with a Non-GAAP gross margin of 47.3%. This segment, alongside the Video segment's $51.9 million in revenue, contributed to total company revenue of $142.4 million for the quarter. We need to see how this base supports international moves.

Regarding targeting new Tier-1 MSOs in Latin America, the groundwork was laid in Q1 2025. You secured a win with one of the seven new broadband customers that quarter, specifically identified as a LATAM Tier 1 operator. That initial success is the proof point you need to build on for further penetration in that region.

To expand cOS sales in Europe and Asia, you can certainly leverage that $90.5 million Q3 2025 Broadband revenue base for global scale. The momentum is already showing in specific areas; for instance, management noted securing a multimillion dollar RFP from a European operator during Q3 2025, which directly supports this international push.

Establishing strategic partnerships for FTTH outside the US is supported by existing large-scale deployments. While Comcast is a US example, their commitment to deploying Harmonic's FTTH solutions for more than 1.2 million new locations planned in 2025 shows the technology's capability for massive non-US fiber rollouts when partnered correctly.

Focusing marketing spend makes sense where the growth is already apparent. The Q3 2025 call highlighted that the Broadband rest of world revenue showed strong year-over-year growth, making it a clear positive area to allocate resources toward for faster returns on development efforts.

The company ended the quarter with a cash balance of $127.4 million, which provides the financial flexibility to fund these international marketing and partnership development activities without immediate strain. Finance: draft the Q4 2025 international marketing budget allocation by next Wednesday.

Harmonic Inc. (HLIT) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

Accelerate the Unified DOCSIS 4.0 roadmap to capture the expected 2026 growth cycle in the Broadband segment.

Harmonic management reiterated expectation of moderate broadband upgrade activity in the short term but noted 'positive tailwinds for 2026 as Unified 4.0 technology progresses and customer ramp readiness improves.' The company demonstrated a 14 gigabit per second throughput milestone on a live Unified DOCSIS 4.0 system at CableLabs Interop. The deployment of advanced cOS™ vCMTS and DOCSIS 4.0 technologies is part of an expanded partnership with Spectrum. Key customer milestones include the first production deployment of Unified DOCSIS 4.0 with Mediacom and GCI modernization programs.

Key Broadband Metrics and Progress:

• Unified DOCSIS 4.0 demonstration speed milestone: 14 Gbps throughput.
• Expected return to Broadband revenue growth: 2026.
• cOS deployments in production (Q3 2025): 142.
• Cable modems and ONUs served by cOS (Q3 2025): over 37 million.

Integrate AI-powered video encoding and monetization tools into the VOS360 platform for existing media clients.

The VOS360 Ad SaaS solution received enhancements introducing AI-powered contextual ad triggering for advanced in-stream ad formats. This AI capability leverages real-time video analysis to identify high-value monetization moments, enabling dynamic insertion of contextually relevant ads. The AI-enhanced solution can automatically detect ad breaks and insert SCTE-35 markers in live content. The Video segment's performance reflects this product focus, with Video SaaS revenue reaching a record $16.1 million in Q3 2025.

Video Segment Financial Snapshot (Q3 2025):

Introduce the SeaStar Optical Node to existing cOS customers for hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) and fiber network upgrades.

The SeaStar Optical Node is designed to convert existing in-building coax cabling into a high-speed broadband conduit for lower-density multi-dwelling units (MDUs). This solution is powered by Harmonic's cOS™ virtualized broadband platform. The node supports speeds exceeding 8 Gbps downstream and 1.5 Gbps upstream. A single, centrally deployed SeaStar node can accelerate delivery of fiber-grade connectivity to up to 16 MDUs.

SeaStar Node Capabilities:

• Maximum downstream speed: Exceeding 8 Gbps.
• Maximum upstream speed: 1.5 Gbps.
• MDUs served per single node: Up to 16.
• cOS platform CPE powered globally (as of May 2025): Over 33 million.

Develop new software modules for the cOS platform that specifically address energy efficiency and operational cost reduction.

Harmonic's portfolio includes 'compact, energy-efficient and feature-rich DOCSIS and fiber access devices' that drive network transformation. The company's cost optimization efforts are reflected in its operating expenses. Total company operating expenses for Q3 2025 were $58.4 million, representing a 3.5% year-over-year decrease due to restructuring and cost reduction initiatives. Furthermore, VOS360 solutions leverage Akamai's infrastructure to enhance cost efficiency and scalability.

Harmonic Inc. (HLIT) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at Harmonic Inc. (HLIT) using the Diversification quadrant of the Ansoff Matrix, which means moving into new markets with new offerings. This is the highest-risk, highest-reward path, but the company's current balance sheet provides a solid foundation for such moves.

The immediate financial reality is that Harmonic Inc. ended Q3 2025 with a cash balance of $127.4 million. This liquidity is significant, especially since it was achieved while the company generated $21.0 million in free cash flow during that quarter. Furthermore, this cash position is net of $65.8 million in stock repurchases over the preceding 12 months. This financial strength directly supports the inorganic expansion strategy outlined.

Here's a quick look at how the existing business segments performed in Q3 2025, which sets the internal benchmark for any new high-margin venture:

The Video segment's gross margin of 66.7% is the internal target for any new high-margin service layer you might build or acquire. Honestly, that margin profile is what you want to see when considering a move into areas like cloud security.

Consider the technology adaptation angle. Harmonic Inc. has its cOS virtualization technology commercially deployed with 142 customers, serving 37.6 million cable modems. This existing footprint and virtualization expertise are the core assets you'd use to adapt cOS for private 5G network infrastructure in enterprise or industrial markets. The success of the Video SaaS revenue, which hit a record $16.1 million in Q3 2025 and grew 13.6% year-over-year, shows the market appetite for software-centric, recurring revenue streams.

The diversification strategies you are mapping out include:

• Create a new AI-driven video analytics service for non-media sectors like retail surveillance or smart city infrastructure.
• Adapt the cOS virtualization technology for private 5G network infrastructure in enterprise or industrial markets.
• Acquire a small, complementary company in the cloud security space to offer a new, high-margin service layer on top of the VOS360 platform.
• Leverage the $127.4 million cash position for inorganic expansion into a new, adjacent network technology market.

For the inorganic move, that $127.4 million in cash is the war chest. If onboarding takes 14+ days for a new service, the risk of customer attrition rises, so any acquisition must have near-immediate integration potential. Also, remember that one customer, Comcast, represented 43% of total Q3 2025 revenue, so any diversification effort is crucial for de-risking that concentration.
