On April 27, 2026, CEVA Inc CEVA shares fell 6.0% today, closing at $27.14. The stock has experienced notable volatility over the past year, with a 52-week high of $30.88 and a low of $17.02.

GF Value™ verdict: The current price of $27.14 is 16.5% above the GF Value™ estimate of $23.30.GF Score™: CEVA has a GF Score™ of 75/100, indicating it is rated as above average.Most notable signal: In the last three months, insiders have bought $0.2 million worth of shares, showing positive sentiment from those within the company. Is CEVA Overvalued or Undervalued? The current market price of CEVA Inc at $27.14 exceeds the GF Value™ estimate of $23.30 by 16.5%, which categorizes the stock as overvalued according to GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value. With CEVA being classified as 'modestly overvalued', this indicates a potential risk for investors, as the stock price may not be sustainable if the underlying business performance does not improve or if market conditions change. The margin of safety appears limited, making it critical for potential investors to assess the risks involved before making any commitments.

GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. Given the current valuation, market participants may want to consider the implications of investing in a stock that is trading above its calculated intrinsic value.

How Does CEVA's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 54.2x 821.5x The current forward P/E ratio of 54.2x is significantly lower than CEVA's 5-year median P/E of 821.5x, indicating that the stock is trading below its historical valuation levels. This analysis aligns with the GF Value™ verdict, suggesting that while the stock may be overvalued relative to its intrinsic value, it is trading at a much more favorable P/E ratio compared to its historical averages.

Pre-Market Stock Futures: Futures are trading higher as we get set to end what has been one of the wildest weeks on Wall Street in some time. After blowing through all-time highs for the umpteenth time on Wednesday, stocks started higher again on Thursday but started to sell off after the noon hour. While most of the upside for much of the week was related to the peace process with Iran and falling oil prices, that unraveled some on Thursday when a Chinese tanker was attacked near a key oil route, which was all it took to send oil prices higher again, and wake up the sellers who were noticeably absent much of the week as technology earnings blew away estimates. When it was all said and done on Thursday, all of the major indices finished the day lower, with the small-cap heavy Russell 2000 leading the way lower, closing down 1.67% at 2,838, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average traded lower by 0.63% to finish the day at 49,596. The S&P 500 closed Thursday at 7,337, down 0.38%, while the tech-loaded Nasdaq fared the best, closing down 0.13% at 25,806.

Treasury Bonds: After a slew of buyers showed up when Treasury yields hit 5% earlier this week on the longest maturities, the sellers had seen enough and returned, and yields across the Treasury curve were all higher on Thursday, with only the shortest T-bill maturities being bought. The attack on the Chinese ship and the spike in oil prices were seen as the provocateur, and likely, as with equities, some profit-taking was involved as well. By the close, the 30-year long bond was trading at 4.96%, while the 10-year note was last seen at 4.38%.

Oil and Gas: Prices were mixed across the energy complex on Thursday, but we didn’t see the drastic moves that have been part and parcel for energy trading since the start of the war with Iran. This comes as the U.S. Secretary of Energy noted that Iran has cut oil output by 400,000 barrels per day amid collapsing exports and a lack of storage.  Brent Crude closed trading on Thursday at $100.50, down 0.81%, while West Texas Intermediate was last seen at $95.20, up 0.13%. Natural gas also traded higher, finishing the session at $2.78, up 1.83%.

Gold: Gold continued its winning ways Thursday, following up on a series of recent strong showings. Morgan Stanley noted Thursday that it sees gold trading back to $5,200 by year-end, while many Wall Street analysts have year-end targets well above that. Gold was last seen Thursday at $4,712, up 0.47%, while Silver ended the day at $79.51, up 2.94%. 

Crypto: The cryptocurrency market experienced a widespread pullback, with major assets retreating after a solid rally earlier in the week. Bitcoin failed to sustain its push above $82,000, falling back to trade around $80,000–$81,000 during the day. After hitting a 3-month high on Wednesday, sellers returned, and the combination of weak equities and the ever-present geopolitical issues was cited as the cause. At 8 AM EDT, Bitcoin was trading at $80,220, while Ethereum was quoted at $2,295.

Highlights strong licensing growth driven by integrated solutions and accelerating edge AI adoption

, /PRNewswire/ -- Ceva, Inc. (NASDAQ: CEVA), the leading licensor of silicon and software IP for the Smart Edge, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

First Quarter Highlights: *

Ceva, Inc. reported Q1 2026 revenue of $27M and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.04. 14 license agreements were concluded in the quarter, including 2 OEM and 3 multi-technology deals. Ceva-powered device shipments were 458M units, including a record 91M Wi-Fi units. Strategic wins included Bluetooth HDT with integrated RF, 5G NTN, UWB, and Auto AI entering production on the 2026 Toyota RAV4. For more information, view the infographic. Delivered total revenues of $27.0 million, up 11% year-over-year Licensing and related revenues of $17.8 million, up 18% year-over-year and the highest in three years Royalty revenues of $9.2 million, with smart edge royalties up 8% year-over-year, driven by record shipments in Wi-Fi, and strong contribution from cellular IoT, 5G infrastructure and automotive AI Signed 14 IP licensing agreements, including several multi-technology engagements with existing customers Secured a major customer win for Bluetooth High Data Throughput (HDT) solution, including Ceva's internally developed RF technology, demonstrating its system-level connectivity strategy Expanded customer engagements in 5G NTN and Ultra-Wideband, increasing value per design AI represented more than 20% of licensing and related revenues, with strong growth and key production milestones, including the Renesas R-Car V4H platform entering the 2026 Toyota RAV4, alongside a collaboration with NXP for its latest software-defined vehicle processors *Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons are to first quarter 2025.

Amir Panush, Chief Executive Officer of Ceva, commented, "We delivered a strong start to 2026, highlighted by our highest licensing and related revenues in three years and continued momentum across our connectivity and AI portfolios. Importantly, this quarter reflects the successful execution of our strategy to expand beyond discrete IP into more integrated, system-level solutions. A major Bluetooth HDT licensing agreement, including RF, alongside our expansion in 5G NTN and Ultra-Wideband, demonstrates how we are increasing our value per design and deepening customer engagement. We also saw encouraging trends in royalties, with continued strength across our smart edge markets, partially offset by softness in smartphones."

"In AI, our growth strategy and relentless focus on market-leading innovation are translating into production, with our technology integrated into leading automotive platforms and entering mass-volume production. With AI contributing over 20% of licensing and related revenues and a strong pipeline of engagements, we believe we are well positioned as the industry accelerates toward hybrid AI and the expansion of Physical AI at the edge."

Business and Market Highlights
During the first quarter, Ceva signed 14 IP licensing agreements across connectivity, AI, and satellite communications, including several multi-technology engagements aligned with its strategy to deliver more integrated, system-level solutions.

The company secured a major full-stack Bluetooth HDT solution license, marking a key milestone in expanding value per design and increasing royalty contribution, while helping customers reduce integration complexity and accelerate time-to-market. Additional wins included a Wi-Fi 7 design targeting consumer IoT, a Wi-Fi 6 / Bluetooth combo engagement with a leading edge-AI SoC platform provider, and multiple Bluetooth and Wi-Fi agreements.

Ceva also expanded into new connectivity domains, introducing its PentaG-NTN platform and progressing a satellite customer engagement to a more integrated baseband solution. In Ultra-Wideband, the company launched its next-generation platform and secured a new customer as adoption accelerates across industrial and automotive applications.

In AI, Ceva continued to expand its footprint with multiple licensing agreements and achieved a key production milestone, with its AI DSP and accelerator deployed in the Renesas R-Car V4H platform, now entering production in the 2026 Toyota RAV4. The company also announced a collaboration with NXP for its latest software-defined vehicle processors. AI represented more than 20% of licensing and related revenues in the quarter, reflecting strong growth and increasing contribution.

Across its markets, Ceva continues to see strong demand in IoT and AI-driven applications, with record Wi-Fi shipments and significant growth in cellular IoT. These trends, together with the shift toward more integrated, system-level solutions and increasing adoption of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi combo chips, are driving higher value per device and reinforcing the company's long-term royalty growth model.

Other first quarter financial data: *

GAAP gross margin was 86%, in line with last year GAAP operating loss was $5.1 million, as compared to a GAAP operating loss of $4.4 million GAAP net loss was $4.5 million, as compared to a GAAP net loss of $3.3 million GAAP diluted loss per share was $0.16, as compared to GAAP diluted loss per share of $0.14 Non-GAAP gross margin was 87%, in line with last year Non-GAAP operating income was $0.5 million, as compared to non-GAAP operating income of $0.3 million Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were $1.1 million and $0.04, respectively, compared with non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.4 million and $0.06, respectively *Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons are to first quarter 2025.

Yaniv Arieli, Chief Financial Officer of Ceva, added, "Our first quarter results reflect strong licensing execution and the continued progression toward higher-value, multi-technology engagements. This shift is driving improved economics per deal and strengthening the long-term royalty potential of our business. We also continue to see encouraging trends across our diversified end markets, particularly in IoT and AI-driven applications. We continue to manage the impact of a weaker U.S. dollar and are implementing measures to partially offset the resulting expenses."

(*) Derived from audited financial statements.

The Company believes that the presentation of non-GAAP measures in the press release is useful to investors in analyzing the results for the quarters ended March 31, 2026, and 2025 because the exclusion of the applicable expenses may provide a meaningful analysis of the Company's core operating results and comparison of quarterly results. Further, the Company believes it is useful for investors to understand how the expenses associated with the application of FASB ASC No. 718 are reflected in its statements of income. The reconciliation of financial measures should be reviewed in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and are intended to provide additional insight into the Company's operations that, when viewed with its GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, offer a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's business. The reconciliation of financial measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company's reported GAAP results.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of expenses that may be incurred in the future, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to the Company's results computed in accordance with GAAP.

CEVA, Inc. (CEVA) Q1 2026 Earnings Call Transcript

On May 28, 2026, CEVA Inc CEVA shares rose 3.0% to $41.76. The stock has demonstrated significant price performance over the past year, with a remarkable year-to-date increase of 94.0% and a 52-week trading range between $17.02 and $42.67.

GF Value™ verdict: Current price of $41.76 is 85.2% above the GF Value™ of $22.55, indicating significant overvaluation. GF Score™ of 68/100, suggesting the stock is above average based on key financial metrics. Most notable signal: The momentum rank of 8/10 indicates strong recent price performance. Is CEVA Overvalued or Undervalued? CEVA Inc's current share price of $41.76 is well above its GF Value™ of $22.55, reflecting an 85.2% overvaluation according to GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value. The GF Valuation label indicates that the stock is significantly overvalued, which presents a risk for potential investors. A significant margin of safety is absent, as the current price does not allow for much downside protection if the market corrects itself.

GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. Given CEVA's high valuation compared to its intrinsic value, there is a substantial risk of a price correction in the future, suggesting that the stock may be trading at an unsustainable level.

How Does CEVA's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 821.5x 821.5x Forward P/E 78.8x - The current P/E ratio of CEVA Inc stands at an astronomical 821.5x, which aligns with its 5-year median P/E but diverges sharply from the forward P/E of 78.8x. This analysis suggests that CEVA is trading well above its historical valuation levels, reinforcing the GF Value™ verdict that the stock is overvalued.

What Does CEVA's GF Score™ Tell Us? Metric Rating GF Score™ 68/100 Financial Strength 7/10 Profitability 4/10 Growth 5/10 Valuation 3/10 Momentum 8/10 CEVA's GF Score™ of 68/100 indicates that the stock is above average in terms of its financial health, although it shows mixed results across different categories. The strongest area appears to be financial strength with a rating of 7/10, while the weakest area is valuation, with a low score of 3/10, reflecting the overvaluation highlighted by the GF Value™ analysis. Additionally, the high momentum score of 8/10 indicates that the stock has shown strong price appreciation recently.

What Are Insiders Doing with CEVA Stock? In the last three months, there have been no insider transactions reported for CEVA Inc. This lack of insider activity may suggest a neutral sentiment among executives regarding the stock's current price and future prospects. Without recent buying or selling from insiders, it is challenging to gauge their confidence in the company's future performance.

What This Means for Investors Based on the GF Value™ analysis, CEVA Inc is currently overvalued. Potential investors should exercise caution given the significant disparity between the current stock price and its intrinsic value, as well as the associated risks of a possible market correction.

For the complete analysis, visit the CEVA Inc CEVA stock page. You can also explore the GF Value™ page for detailed valuation methodology, or use the GuruFocus Stock Screener to find similar opportunities.
