Lee-Lean Shu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The recent publication of the Cornell University research paper was an important moment for GSI. The research paper validated our Gemini-I Associative Processing Unit's ability to match NVIDIA's A6000 GPU performance on retrieval-augmented generation tasks while consuming over 98% less energy. This validation demonstrates the transformative potential of our compute-in-memory architecture in the AI sector, particularly our Gemini-II Associative Processing Unit. With 8 times the memory and 10 times the performance of Gemini-I, Gemini-II is poised to deliver even greater processing power at dramatically lower energy consumption compared to current market solutions.”

“In line with our commitment to advancing our groundbreaking technology, we closed a $50 million registered direct offering to fund continued development of our APU product line. This capital infusion will support the progression of Gemini-II software and the initiation of the Plato chip design, reinforcing our technology leadership and positioning GSI to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the rapidly growing edge AI market.”

Commenting on GSI’s second quarter of fiscal 2026 outlook, Mr. Shu stated, “This quarter, we achieved revenue of $6.44 million, up 41.6% year-over-year, reflecting the growing demand for our SRAM solutions, while also narrowing our net loss compared to the prior year. Current expectations for the upcoming fiscal third quarter are net revenues in a range of $6.0 million to $6.8 million, with gross margin of approximately 54% to 56%.”
