Harmonic, Inc. experiences some demand seasonality for its products and services. Operating expenses are expected to increase in Q4 due to seasonality, which could impact profitability. The year-over-year comparison for broadband performance in Q3 2025 was affected by exceptionally strong performance in the third quarter of the previous year. Q4 guidance has reflected a cautious approach, partly attributed to the timing of the DOCSIS 4.0 transition and broader macroeconomic conditions.
