Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) today reported financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2020 ended January 31, 2020.

"Keysight delivered another outstanding quarter and a strong start to the year with both revenue and earnings exceeding the high end of our guidance. Revenue growth in the quarter was driven by ongoing strength in 5G-related investments and increased spending in aerospace defense and semiconductor measurement," said Ron Nersesian, Keysight president and CEO. "Our consistent financial performance illustrates the strength of our differentiated solutions targeting a diverse set of end markets," said Nersesian.

First Quarter Financial Summary

GAAP revenue grew 9 percent to reach $1.095 billion, when compared with $1.006 billion last year.
Non-GAAP core revenue, which also excludes the impact of foreign currency changes and revenue associated with businesses acquired or divested within the last twelve months, increased 8 percent.
GAAP net income was $163 million, or $0.86 per share, compared with GAAP net income of $114 million, or $0.60 per share, in the first quarter of 2019.

As of January 31, 2020, cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.691 billion.
